Hospitalized!

Filed under: Politik

tedken.jpg

Ted Kennedy was rushed to the emergency room Saturday morning, and it could be quite serious.

Reports indicate that the Senator suffered stroke-like symptoms at the Kennedy compound in Hyannisport, Mass.

Ted was first rushed to Cape Cod Hospital around 9 AM.

After being in the emergency room for two hours there, he was transported to Barnstable Airport and was then flown to Massachusetts General Hospital.

There is no word on his condition.

Kennedy is 76 years old.

    Hate to say it, but good! He is a murderer! Google Ted Kennedy murder and you'll see. His endorsement of Obama is why I'll be voting republican for the first time in my life. Birds of a feather… Obama WILL LOSE!

    Senator Edward Kennedy has served the citizens of the United States in office since November 1962, and is the second-longest serving member of the Senate. He is the senior United States Senator from Massachusetts and a member of the Democratic Party. As such, after 46 years of public service to all of you, no matter what your political leanings, he deserves your full respect and gratitude at a time like this. My best hopes and prayers are extended for his full recovery.

  20. Ted Can't Swim says – reply to this

    Let's see- the Communist News Network said ted is a "liberal lion" in the senate. And his family is "political royalty". JFK and his successor got a lot of people killed in VietNam. Ted Kennedy killed a woman by letting her drown so his wife wouldn't catch him cheating. Ted was always the "slow one" his father said- and was never the one for politics. He cheated like a dog on his first wife. He is a limosine liberal, wanting no one else to get as rich as he is. He is the definition of blowhard and alcoholic. No one at CNN mentions it and they GLOSS over the murder of Mary Jo Kopechne by calling it the "chappaqquiddick incident". Pathetic. Obama cares because old Teddy can raise up the votes (particularly of dead voters and people who register twice) and endorsed Obama to spite Bill Clinton because ted hates Bill. That's WHY Ted and Caroline were grinning like fools when they made their endorsement– they were screwing Bill and that made them gleeful. Oh yeah, he's a lion all right.

    Re: Canaduck – He should never have been elected= it was a sympathy vote on the part of the people of Massachusetts. He was a protege of the bombastic Tip O'neill, who screwed the rest of america by getting us to pay for special projects in Boston and Mass. ted kennedy screwed americans out of billions of special interest dollars with the pork he put in bills. I am not grateful to him and I do not respect adulterers, murderers, or frankly, alcoholics. You can do that if you want- but a lot of people see him as a hypocritical liar who is disgraceful in his personal and professional conduct.

    Im from Mass, this man is a WONDERFUL man.
    4 years ago when gay marriage was a big issue my friend wrote to him and got a personal letter back in support.

    The Kennedy family does SO much good to help people in need that they dont publicize.
    He serves food to homeless without the press there.

    They STARTED the Special Olympics.

    They give 100 free gallons of heating oil to the very poor and elderly in Massachusetts so elderly people dont have to be freezing in the brutal Mass winters.

    He is a VERY good man. I dont follow politics but Im almost in tears over this.
    I hope he's ok.

    Republican talk show hosts talk smack about them but the Kennedy family has done more good for the world than all the republitards combined.

    This man has earned no respect. The Kennedys have killed more Americans than the Bushes by a factor of 10 or more.

    Plus, there's the drinking, the cheating on his wife, the communist policies, and oh yeah, the murder that he committed.

    Re: Mary Jo – I choose to focus on his professional public accomplishments and battles, which are lengthy and honorable. You can focus on a long past sad incident or his alleged personal demons in his off hours if you so choose. He has lived a entire life of reconciliation and full, dedicated public service ever since. How much public sorry is sorry enough for you? Half full, or half empty? I have followed his professional life on and off in detail for 46 years, plus his website, which is worth checking out, btw, and have nothing but admiration for the things he has managed to accomplish or hoped to. I'm not a citizen, but a neutral witness, but AM an American by virtue of living in North America. Appreciate what needs and deserves appreciating, and don't get caught up in the one or two pieces of lint on an otherwise beautiful table of fine craftsmanship, IMHO. Misfortune can, and does, build great character.

    cape cod hospital is probably a community hospital, mass. general a trama hospital which can handle things better. Besides, the 1st hospital probably did not want the reputation of having the last Kennedy brother die there. He has done some crappy things, but I hope he does not end up like a vegetable. No one deserves that.

    I hope he dies!!!!! He's a disgrace to the human race and should have been booted from Capitol Hill YEARS ago! He's also a murderer and I hope there is a special place in Hell for him.

    Whoever before me stated that "they shot the good Kennedys and left the evil one" was spot on!

    I really hope he dies but I hope it's a slow process. I hope he's in a vegetative state for months with tubes coming out of him and has to have a nurse wipe his arse each day and all he can do is lie there and think about what an evil prick he has been his whole life.

    Re: Massboy – Please spare me! The whole family was and still is a bunch of crooks. Joe Kennedy made all his money from illegal bootlegging, they had a retarded daughter that they kept locked up until they decided to give her a lobotomy which eventually killed her. Teddy boy goes out on a date and 24 hours later the girl turns up dead and the cops find him sleeping like a baby at home. Yea real nice people.

    i dont know what everyones problem is. i understand the whole drowning incident HOW MANY YEARS AGO?! Since then Senator Kennedy has done more for Massachusetts than any other person. Look at all the bills he has fought for and have been passed, many of your children OWE Mr.Kennedy a DEBT of gratitude.

    We all make mistakes and yes his was a big one but you know what that was decades ago and he obviously has been trying to make amends, so shut your mouth and dont 'pray that he dies' because obviously if your that type of person you deserve what you have coming.

    Just look at one or two of the bills he drew attention to and got passed and then you can have your judgement.

    I can't believe the mean spirited responses to this story. Actually, yes, I can. The Kennedy's have their faults, but the good this family has done for this country is astounding.There isn't a single person reading this whose life hasn't been positively affected by his work. It's too bad that his entire life will be defined by his darkest moment, but it's even more unfortunate how many mean, rotten, ignorant people exist in this world.

    Re: Hyde – No Catholic ever 'gets away with' another's death. His whole life has been about making amends. It was an accident, and his car went of a bridge with BOTH of them in it. He managed to swim up, but dove down several times but did not succeed in rescuing her. He attended her funeral. Murder has a definition, and this does not meet it; not even close. Educate yourself, sir, or look foolish.

    Kennedy was a leading member of the bipartisan team that wrote the controversial No Child Left Behind Act of 2001, which, according to both Kennedy and President Bush, was a compromise.
