the news is saying he was so upset to see Ted sick.. that they had to check on him as well.. Byrd and Kennedy are close friends.. funny isn't it? Byrd former KKK and voted against desegregation (years ago) and liberal Kennedy close friends...

Default Kennedy collapses at luncheon

WASHINGTON -- Senator Edward M. Kennedy of Massachusetts collapsed at the congressional luncheon honoring President Obama and has been taken to a local hospital.

In general, she said, a seizure is not necessarily a bad sign in a brain cancer patient, and Kennedy had seemed to be doing very well after his seizure in September. The latest seizure "doesn�t necessarily mean anything more today than it did then," she said

I don't know. But I don't take this as a good sign for Senator Kennedy. I think honestly as is pertains to his political career, he's about done.

Was there an open bar? I wish him the best during this illness but let's be real. Only in liberal lala land can you drunkenly drive off a bridge, leave an innocent woman to die while going to sleep and be so worshipped.

This is nothing more than Mary Jo Kopechne looking for a little justice.

Teddy Kennedy's nothing more than a lying bottom feeder. I have no sympathy for him.

Even though I disagree with most of what he's done while in office... I feel for him and his family for what they are having to go through now. I wish them well.

A good politician also knows when it is time to leave and let another person do the job....

I wish him well, but it is time for some one else!

Karma's a beotch, isn't it? I have felt badly for the family of that girl he let drown (and then covered it up) for many years.
