Sen. Edward Kennedy Has Been Hospitalized
by BooMan
Some troubling news out of Massachusetts:
U.S. Senator Edward M. Kennedy was rushed by ambulance
to Cape Cod Hospital this morning after falling ill at the Kennedy
compound in Hyannisport.Hyannis fire responded to the compound after a call was made around
8:30 a.m. It's unclear what Kennedy's medical condition is, but after
he spent almost two hours in the emergency room a decision was made to
transfer him to Mass General Hospital in Boston.Kennedy, 76, was placed on a stretcher and wheeled out to the MedFlight
helicopter around 10:15 a.m. where it took off from Barnstable
Municipal Airport.
I'm hearing that he had stroke-like symptoms. It's not unusual for
people to be airlifted from Cape Cod to Boston, as they have more
complete medical facilities there. Send the Kennedys some positive
thoughts.

Yeah, well... We all can't be as pure as you, hatenomore.
Some of us have made mistakes in our lives and lack your virginal, immaculate perfection and benevolent good-will toward his fellow man.
Your insensitive, partisan, and frankly OPPORTUNISTIC kicking of this "Lion of Liberalism" when he's down, MERELY HIGHLIGHTS HIS GREATNESS.
Chappequidic ended his carreer... A lesser man would have gone home and enjoyed his wealth... Not Ted Kennedy.
He has since dedicated his life to sticking up for the little guys... just plain folks, the folks that fight our wars and toil to build the useless crap we love so much.
You, sir, aren't qualified to clean Ted Kennedy's bedpan.
