Kennedy awaiting test results at Boston hospital [Dan Collins]

Probably should have paid someone to take them for him.

    “If you haven’t got anything nice to say about anybody, come sit next to me.”
    – Alice Roosevelt Longworth (1884-1980)

  2. Jeffersonian says:

    Did he get too much blood in his alcohol stream?

  3. Karl says:

    Actually, to say something nice about ol’ Ted, he seems to have gotten his personal act together enough that when he had stroke-like symptoms, they were recognized as such.

  4. JD says:

    I hope Sen. Anvilhead has a quick and uneventful recovery.

    Completely off topic, Seagrams stock plummeted due to a catastrophic drop in demand.

  5. Mikey NTH says:

    I’ve had a TIE. It isn’t any fun, nor are the tests. Sen. Kennedy has my sympathy. I do not agree with him politically, but this…

    Get well, sir.

  6. happyfeet says:

    Oh. He’s one of them let’s have a genocide in Iraq people. It’s probably better on balance if he kind of dies. The needs of the many and all that.

  7. TmjUtah says:

    A stroke took my mom. It left her body in a bed for ten years.

    Godspeed, Mr. Kennedy. Not an admirer, but please accept my best wishes and prayers for your speedy and full recovery.

  8. Ric Locke says:

    I would like to see Ted Kennedy live to a ripe old age, sitting on the porch at Hyannisport looking out across the unspoiled, windmill-free sea.

    In the Senate, not so much.

    Regards,
    Ric

  9. SarahW says:

    Ric, oh that, very much that. ^

    Hah! You suckers were always counting me out. Me and the rest of the organs always knew the brain was his weakest link.

  11. psycho... says:

    You know, there are other elderly murderer/rapists who could do with some well-wishing shout-outs, too. Ian Brady’s deathly ill, but not quite dead, last I checked.

    Next year on the moor, fine sir.

  12. N. O'Brain says:

    They say Kennedy had a seizure.

    My question is, how could they tell?

  13. The Lost Dog says:

    Although I think Ted Kennedy is an out of touch rich, empty headed asshole, I have to agree with TmjUtah and Mikey NTH. This stuff is not a part of the arguments I have with Ted Kennedy’s worldview.

    I truly wish him a speedy and full recovery.

    And only THEN I will go back to attack mode. No man/woman or their family should have to go through this kind of thing. I’ve been there too, and the pain is way beyond politics.

    When he recovers, though, I reserve the right…

    But for now, all I feel is empathy for Ted and his family. Where he is right now (and thank God it sounds not so bad) is not a place ANY human being wants to be, or should make fun of.

  14. Mikey NTH says:

    TIA, I meant. Lord it was two years ago and I got the spelling wrong…

    It sucks, and hospitals are nowhere to get well (not when they wake you every hour to test your reactions and all you want to do is sleep, because you finally did after the old guy in the next bed stopped screaming and drifted off to sleep, and oh, Christ; now what…?)

  15. McGehee says:

    I heard the test results are back and Teddy is now 98.4% liver, by weight.

  16. thor says:

    Whiskey futures are limit down in overseas trading on news of possible softening in Ted Kennedy’s benchmark kidneys.

  17. ahem says:

    I’m with Ric.

  18. Serr8d says:

    Mary Jo Kopechne would’ve been 68 on July 26. Not really, though.

    She’ll be forever 29.

  19. happyfeet says:

    No for real he should die. Him and a whole bunch of them I think. I would like that very much really.

  20. happyfeet says:

    They just don’t leave any other way hardly. Not these days. And when they do sort of plan their exits it seems they make make maximum asses out of themselves for the duration of their time. Like John Warner. Gack. Retirement really is way too good for him I think.

  21. Serr8d says:

    Well, eventually, hf, but let’s not rush it or party too soon. He may still have a role to play. He’s his own doom to face. I’ll empathize on a human level.

    But, I can’t get Mary Jo out of my head, either.

  22. happyfeet says:

    Chuck Grassley who is starving all those poor people. Him too. And Arlen just, well, duh. And Lindsey just cause he’s such a useless pansy. And many many Democrats. Buh-bye I think. I really don’t care how.

  23. happyfeet says:

    Oh. Jeez. Y’all act like these are real people.

  24. happyfeet says:

    They’re somewhere between journalists and head lice I think.

  25. ThomasD says:

    It is sad to see any human suffer. Better that he go quickly, not gasping for breath in a rapidly diminishing pocket of air.

  26. Topsecretk9 says:

    I think it’s imported Scotch his family still receives a duty on. Seriously.

  27. B Moe says:

    If Teddy goes, where will we find another immoral, lying fucking pig to replace him?

  28. Topsecretk9 says:

    Mafia boss Frank Costello maintained that he and rumrunner Joe Reinfeld were [Joe] Kennedy’s partners in his bootlegging operation, smuggling liquor into New York and New England. With the repeal of prohibition, Kennedy legitimized his operations as Somerset Importers became the exclusive U.S. distributor of Haig & Haig Scotch, Gordin’s Gin, Ron rico Rum and Dewar’s Scotch. during WW II, the Roosevelt administration allowed Kennedy to import Scotch whiskey duty free aboard U.S. Navy ships, labeling the booze as ballast.

    McGehee,

    I tried SO hard not to go there, but, you asshoole, now I have to go out tomorrow, and buy another fucking new keyboard. Ethanol does not mix with keyboards that are victims of Hill-arity (no pun intended. Well, maybe). Please! You need to warn me (if not “us”) when you are going to be so funny. PW has cost me four keyboards so far, and counting.

    I guess I should know by now not to have any kind of liquid in my mouth when I read the “comments” here. As far as I am concerned, this is the funniest place on the net. I mean, who else but Jeff would let a post about smoked, dry vaginas sit there long enough to make me gag from laughing so hard (and thinking of 100 grit sandpaper – which I would actually prefer to you-know-what)?

    And, as for the Swimmer, I was trying to be compassionate…I actually did feel bad for the Swimmer, but the better the news about his health gets, the farther I descend into Snickerland – again.

    OMG! I am so anti-compassionate.

    But a seizure is one thing (usually caused by a catastrophic lack of alcohol), but a srroke is another thing altogether. Any serious alcoholic knows that you can’t just “stop” without a large infusion of percodan and vitamin B. If you just cut that alcohol off by yourself, the ambulance will be at your house quite quickly , and you won’t even be aware of it because of your uncontrollable tremors…..

    DOH!

    hep me! hep me! i must be hyp-mo-tized!!!!

    OMG! I actually posted this?

    Yup. Looks that way, don’t it?

  30. The Lost Dog says:

    “asshoole”?

    I most be Scandibavarian, or sumpin’ close to it..

  31. Sean M. says:

    If Teddy goes, where will we find another immoral, lying fucking pig to replace him?

    Well, there are more than six million people in Massachusetts. But if I had to narrow it down, I’d say Harvard.

  32. The Lost Dog says:

    happyfeet –

    You are one sick unit – but you have made me laugh so hard that I think I mnust agree with you.

    I really don’t wish suffering on anyone, but what do I think of people whose lives are dedicated to “equal suffering for all, you greedy pigs”?

    Fuck them and the brain-dead people they rode in on. I just have a problem with suffering, even for mindless dorks. But perhaps you have been the first hint of the alarm that doesn’t wake me up in the morning until I am at least an hour late for work.

    How liberating does that feel!

    I wish I weren’t a dick, but lately I am old enough to realize that being a dick is way better than being a brain dead stupid fucking dork (commas, periods, semi-colons, etc. do not apply in a fit of pique).

    Thank you (Bow).

    So Mikey,

    You’re going to tee up this joke for everyone and then correct your own spelling mistake and simultaneously pull the rug out from under everyone? That’s bullshit right there.

    You’ve got empathy, and that’s admirable. But then again, you’re no Ted Kennedy. Me, I go for the easy stuff. Did you see in the article that he had surgery to eliminate blockage in the carotid artery (which supplies blood to the brain and face)? Let’s think about that for a moment. How big does the pipe need to be to supply that nose with blood, let alone his entire melon? And what was blocking it?

    “Mrs. Kennedy, the surgery went well. We were able to remove the steak hoagie from the artery and that in turn got the blood flowing back into your husbands head. His nose should return to that cute, veiny, bright purple by morning. Oh, and he shouldn’t drive for a few years either. Not until he’s dead probably.”

  34. Rusty says:

    It’s much better to have and opponent upright and cogent.’Cause when they’re comatose or dead it’s really kind of pointless. So I hope he gets better so we can knock him down and then kick him.

  35. BJTexs says:

    I believe that the Senator may be suffering from P.T.W.S.
    (Pre Traumatic Windmill Syndrome.)

    Get well, Senator.

  36. Mikey NTH says:

    Sorry alp.

  37. Mikey NTH says:

    oh, and thanks for the compliment.

  38. alppuccino says:

    de nada

    As usual, B Moe, right on the money.

    I am trying to figure out how a thread that originally touched my “poor so-and-so” nerve, has turned into a paroxysm of derisive laughter. And I hope Mary Jo is laughing, too.

    The Swimmer should probably never try to dry himself out without the help of a serious detox center. Those “gran mal” siezures sure can be a bitch, huh?

  40. Big Dan says:

    WTF is the Michael Yon link supposed to say? And why have references to Yon and Kennedy anywhere close to each other?

    WTFkin’F?

  41. BJTexs TW/BP says:

    Big Dan: Scroll down on Yon’s site and find the reference to … Michael Moore!

    WTF mystery solved!

  42. mojo says:

    Did somebody nail a gold doubloon to the mast or something?

  43. Mikey NTH says:

    Come on guys, immoral lying f***ing pigs are a dime a dozen in Washington – just send out a casting call.

  44. Big Dan says:

    Oh, fine, yeah. But please link to the *specific* grotesque lying corpulent bastard rundown. For the children.

    Thanks, Big Dan. That was what I meant to do.
