Well, we can't say that we didn't know this was all coming but the arrogance of the socialist Democrats in Washington, D.C. never ceases to amaze, does it? Senator Chris Dodd (D-CT) hit all of the Sunday morning "news" fests and has decided that the best way for America to honor the late Senator Ted Kennedy is for all of America, Congressmen and Senators to just knock off the heated debate and pass the Healthcare bill.
Well, Senator Dodd...I have news for you. The conservatives of America (which vastly outnumber your communist backers) smell blood in the water fool and what you saw in August at the town halls is nothing compared to what is coming up, fool. Senator Dodd, if you want to see if the American people are willing to take your advice and just follow along like sheep, I encourage you to stay at your Senate office Friday night, September 11th - sleep on your futon there, sir and then on Saturday morning, September 12th, about 10:00 a.m. look out your window at Pennsylvania Avenue and then tell me if the American people are taking your advice. I dare you to stay there the weekend, Dodd. I double dare you.

Democrats: Honor Kennedy through civil debate
WASHINGTON (AP) - Democratic lawmakers said Sunday the best way for Congress to honor the late Sen. Edward M. Kennedy is to set aside the heated rhetoric of the health care debate and pass a plan that cuts costs and extends coverage. A key Republican said he doubts any Democrats in Congress have the force of personality to pull it off.
Sen. Chris Dodd, D-Conn., said lawmakers who want to honor Kennedy should "put behind us the blistering days of August, enter the cool days of September, and start acting like senators again."
Congress returns from a monthlong break next week no closer to passing a health care plan than when lawmakers left town. During the break, Democratic members of Congress have faced heated town hall gatherings across the country, with many of those attending hurling insults over Democratic plans to overhaul the nation's health care system.
Dodd said lawmakers who respect each others' opinions and are civil in their disagreements are more likely to reach legislative compromises.
"If you do all of those things, then you can achieve the kind of results that Teddy achieved and that the Senate as a body has achieved historically," Dodd said. "If you abandon civility, then you're going to be in trouble."
Dodd and other lawmakers close to Kennedy appeared on the Sunday morning news shows to remember the Massachusetts senator a day after his funeral Mass in Boston and his burial at Arlington National Cemetery in Northern Virginia.

The truly amazing thing is that anyone takes this half of the "waitress sandwich" seriously and keeps electing him! Unless, of course, those same people are already in it for what they can get. We had a guy in our conservative chat last night say that kennedy was "a great senator" because "he brought home the pork" and "that's what it's all about". If that is the prevailing opinion of American citizens, then the country as we knew it is over.
See ya Sat 912. :)
Maybe Fri too!
