[Greybnk48]

19. And we've been able to count on him for decades

this is what you call a statesman...not in it for the perks or money.

[LittleClarkie]

2. He also kicks ass

Indeed.

4. Hopefully....

...the Rusher papers incident doesn't have any legs (I don't think it does). But I have to admit I was squirming a bit after that whole incident.

5. Rox!

One of my favorite moments from Andrea pelosi's documentary on the Dem. primaries was TK's first appearance for Kerry. "Are you happy to see old Ted Kennedy?" he asked. An enthusiastic roar followed.

6. Ted rocks big time!

[spuddonna]

7. He is an amazing Senator...

He has always fought for the poor. God bless him and his family!

8. To the extreme end is Jeff Sessions or John Cornyn

take your pick.

Lindsey Graham is a snake in the grass that is ashamed of his sexual behavior.

16. my message

Dear Senator Kennedy and staff,

I recently started a topic on the online message board for Democrats, Democratic Underground, in appreciation of Senator Kennedy defending REAL democratic (and Democratic) values during the Alito hearings. We have been continually impressed by his questions and statements, as usual. One of my fellow Democrats suggested that we send you the link to the message we have going currently, and thought the Senator would get a kick out of it.

The topic was a poll: "Does Ted Kennedy Rock or what?" with the choices being either "Yes!" or "What?". So far we have 52 yes votes and 7 what votes, and some great pro-Kennedy comments of support.

Thank you so much for standing up for real Americans for six decades.

Another Texan against Bush,
*******

17. Having grown up in the Bible Belt,

I can't tell you how thrilled I am that Kennedy is my senator. He's never let me down, you can always count on his fighting the good fight.

[MelissaB]

27. I'm jealous!

I'm in Alabama and I don't have to tell you about my senators.

20. Thanks Sen Kennedy

We can always count on you.

[Coexist]

21. thanks for staying the course over the decades the right

used you as a poster boy for evil liberals.

I have watched proudly every year you try to raise the minimum wage. Keep fighting the good fight, sir.
