Too Soon?

From a buddy on my high school football team, via Facebook:

So the Dems want to change the current bill to the Ted Kennedy Memorial Bill.

Does that mean they are going to do what he did with Mary Jo Kopechne?...Do nothing and watch it die??

I don't care if they name it Jesus Christ Health Care, it's STILL bad legislation.

The only difference is that this legislation is not an innocent victim- and it would be justice for it to die young.

Clean up on aisle 1! A moby made a horrible mess!

They really should let the man rest in peace, but it appears they want to keep him working, even in the great beyond:

Why call it something complicated like the "Ted Kennedy Health Care Bill" when something simple like "Lying Liberal, Kopechne Killing, Son of an Irish Bootlegger, Screw the Hard Working Tax Paying American, Pay Off the Union Leaders, Give it all Away to the Hind Tit Sucking Entitled Americans and Illegal Aliens Health Care Bill?"

Paul, your suggestion of a title is factual in every way.

Sorry, Paul, it'll never fly. Any bill with a title longer than three words has to make a spiffy acronym.
