HuffPost Kirk Writes "Ted Kennedy Having a Merry Christmas In Heaven"

"He's having a merry Christmas in heaven," said an emotional Sen. Paul Kirk, D-Mass., who was appointed to fill the seat after Kennedy succumbed to brain cancer in August. Kirk said it was an honor to essentially cast Kennedy's vote as Democrats passed the Senate's version of a bill that would extend insurance to 30 million Americans."

I tried to put my 2 cents in by somehow my comments get censored out so, I'll do them here.  First, Ted Kennedy is not likely to be in heaven because he supported abortion laws that led to the massacre of 50 million unborn children despite the admonitions of his Church.  He persisted without any remorse until the day he died writing a letter to the Pope about his other accomplishments.

This leads to the second point i.e. the other accomplishments of service to the poor which Ted might have encouraged does not dispense from following all the tenets of his faith.  One does not pick and choose which commands of Almighty God to obey and which to discard.  If something needs to be discarded, it would have been the latter because the right to life trumps over the right to liberty or the pursuit of happiness.

As far as the health care bill is concerned, one needs to consult the teachers of the faith for what the people of God believes.

Democrats can still win in 2010 & 2012.

There is obviously a lot of anger out there for the Democrats but they seem unperturbed.  Some are still cocky as they rub the GOPs noses on their success with the healthcare reform.  They do not have a leg to stand on and their platforms suck.  They're for the culture of death, their opponents for life.  They're blatantly upholders of a culture of corruption;  the other of integrity.  So, what gives them confidence?

They must still have their Rock the Vote support.  Where are the young Republicans?  They still have the fake Catholic organizations that will personally contact marginalized Catholics.  Will the bishops denounce those?  Will the Jesuits still support the one?  They still have demographic groups e.g. the homosexuals and feminists that are not included in any conservative party.  They have ethnic minorities that feel out of place in the GOP.  Has the GOP reached out to those?  They might have pseudo conservative agents that divide the opposition.  I already read about a Constitution Party coming up and about.  Then there's Joe Lieberman and the Independents.

Bottom line, despite the anger and frustration, the Democrats can still win in 2010 and 2012 because it is about numbers.  And all the TEA party goers and pro-lifers may still not add up to give them the boot.   Remember the shock when the entire student body of Notre Dame cheered, "Yes We Can!"
