Hooray! (PSST HOW AMBIGUOUS IS THE TERM “REMISSION”??): “Sen. Edward Kennedy’s brain cancer is in remission and the Massachusetts Democrat is expected back in the Senate after the Memorial Day recess, according to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid. Sen. Reid (D-Nev.) said Tuesday that he spoke with Kennedy’s wife and was told the 77-year-old lawmaker will return to work full time during the first week of June.” Just in time for Socialized Health Care! But what if Harry Reid is lying? [The Hill]

Once they got that whiskey bottle out of his neck his improvement was inevitable.
Also, if there were a deity, he/she/it hates David Denby.
I want to die with that exact same expression on my face.

No snark here, we need a damn Dem in the Senate with a pair…
Cue Rush Limbaugh’s kidneys exploding in 3…2…1…
Does this mean jebus is a dirty liberul,and wants losers(not rich persons)to have health care.
Maybe it means there is one more driving assignment for good ol Teddy.
Mary Jo must be relieved…
Why does God hate Republicans so much? And what’s his problem with the Health Care Industry? Twas looking so good for our Insurance Overlords for so many years, and then this guy’s cancer goes into remission and BOOM. SOCIALISM.
[re=320313]LittlePig[/re]: I don’t do electric contraptions. Strictly natural for me, I do all my mail ordering from this gentleman.

[re=320322]queeraselvis v 2.0[/re]: If I can get tape of that I’ll be laughing like Teddy K in the pic.
[re=320332]Custerwolf[/re]: What in the F is that?!?
I am sure the jebus fans have something in their book that relates to the end times when something like Teddys resurgence happens.
[re=320332]Custerwolf[/re]: Nice. You can tell from the way his hand is blurred that its an action shot.
Where are all the Kopechne jokes? Neilist? Neilist? Where are you?
I would make some if I could, but my brain doesn’t work that way. Keep cheating death, Teddy. We need you for a little while longer.
As a former cancer patient, may I say that the word “remission” is one of the best words in the English language? The only better word is “NED” – No Evidence of Disease. Hurray for Senator Kennedy!
Now, get back to work, Teddy.
HAHAHAHA! WHERE IS YOUR GOD NAO, ‘WINGERS!!!!
Interesting co-incidences that could only happen in DC. My wife used to coach a men’s softball team that consisted of Grier Raclin, the first husband of Ted’s wife Vicki Reggie, AND (now Justice) Sam Alito.
What does it mean? Nothing of course.
[re=320324]hpwilliams[/re]: No, it’s obv. the power of the Wingnuts prayers. They don’t want to lose Teddy–he’s all that’s holding them together. They’d have to get rid of all those stupid Chappaquidick t-shirts and bumper stickers, also.
[re=320332]Custerwolf[/re]: That could hammer a 6″ spike through a board. A girl has to have her standards.
[re=320337]hpwilliams[/re]: It’s a wanker
standing next to an elephant’s penis.
[re=320332]Custerwolf[/re]: Hey, it’s grandpa — I’d recognize him anywhere. But who’s the guy standing next to him?
[re=320345]BadKitty[/re]: Very very happy for you.
Someone just told him that Harry Reid got caught getting double-dicked down behind the used oil storage at ‘Terribles.’
[re=320353]SayItWithWookies[/re]: We were THAT close.
[re=320366]Custerwolf[/re]: Great minds and all that.
Cool! And fuck you Denby.
[re=320320]freakishlystrong[/re]: Fa real. He and Chaka Fatta are the only two people on the Hill who even understand all that is wrong about massive legislation like No Child Left Behind. And that’s like – what – 117th on the Obama’s “To Un-Fuck-up List”?

You’ll never be shot if you’re meant to be hung, my mother used to say.
Ruthless wit directed at the rich and powerful should always be encourage, and Kennedy’s boozing and womanizing are certainly grounds for satire, but wait, at least, until the guy can put his feet on the floor. Denby’s permission to snark at Kennedy again has now been granted. Huzzah!
[re=320337]hpwilliams[/re]: It’s the prize speciman at the Icelandic Phallological Museum…
So, if someoned Blingeed that pic with a liquor bottle over his mouth, would that be wrong?
Kennedy could have gone off and hid under a rock in ’80 when Jimmy Carter beat him handily for the nomination, but he kept on ticking then and now. Fortitude is not a common trait among the moneyed, entitled set. Wanting to die with his boots on is another admirable urge, in stark contrast to some of his others. I hope the remission is real and prolonged.
[re=320484]lawrenceofthedesert[/re]: Ditto.
[re=320404]germansteel[/re]: Are you saying that your mom has seen his congressional member?
[re=320345]BadKitty[/re]: I am in the same boat as you, and “remission” is not a happy word for me, since I have had two of them.
[re=320528]Aurelio[/re]: You have to admit it beats “mets.”
Fuck man, I’m not reading all these whippersnapper smarty-pants comments. I’m just goin’ straight for the end here and say it appalls me no end to have to even contemplate the possibility that there might actually be a “God.” Teddy-Boy has been fighting the good fight in this fuckin’ system for lo these many years, and his whole THING has always been health care, so I just think I will now go make myself another drink and toast that AWESOME man and praise the Little Baby Jesus for this fucking wonderful wonderful news that I am so happy about. Okay that’s all.
[re=320528]Aurelio[/re]: and [re=320345]BadKitty[/re]: I my own self am in the NED category and have been for 10 years, although my shit-for-brains GP insists upon calling it ‘remission.” WHATEVER. The spouse, on the other hand, has had mucho mets/remissions with HIS cancer for the last 9 years. NED/remission yea! Mets nay.
No snark here, but I will say that God clearly likes liberals more. Thank God for Ted Kennedy.
