I see my error. I submitted this with a tasteful headline.

/Never again

I don't need a witty headline to think Ted Kennedy having a stroke is funny but it sure doesn't hurt.

 
VRaptor117 2008-05-17 12:36:48 PM  
Nevermind, IE just crapped out on me.

 
AgentMichaelScarn 2008-05-17 12:36:57 PM  
What is it with these Kennedy's and head injuries?

/just sayin...

Strokes aren't funny, but +1 for the pun anyway.

Pulled up fine for me. Obivously you're not rich enough or come from an important enough family to get access to Cape Cod Online.

And before you ask... They know. Oh, they know.

Too bad Arlen Specter is busy with the NFL, because if Teddy dies Arlen won't be able to examine the Single Boilermaker Theory.

 
Foaming [TotalFark] 2008-05-17 12:39:02 PM  
I like how CNN's "first images" of the incident was just showing some newspaper's main page with a single picture of it on the screen.

 
mtman900 2008-05-17 12:39:16 PM  
I am an appreciator of humor, so +1.

Also, to anyone who ever biatches again about Liberals making fun of Republicans who get injured or die but not democrats, this thread will always be submitted in rebuttal.

Politicians always time this stuff for the weekend so the news and talking heads can't get ahold of it quickly.

 
Running a-puck 2008-05-17 12:39:44 PM  
In before accusations of Clinton being behind it somehow...

I've got 20 bucks on polonium poisoning.

But, will it do it live?

Magnificent headline.

The Fox News chick just called him a Matriarch. *snert*

 
TxRabbit 2008-05-17 12:41:29 PM  
This is as funny as when Reagan got shot!!

 
lilplatinum [TotalFark] 2008-05-17 12:41:35 PM  
God at least the other 2 members of his family had the decency to die younger.

 
cerberus9 2008-05-17 12:42:01 PM  
So now he's staggering around and talking incoherently?

Hobodeluxe: Stay classy Republicans

This is a thread about Ted Kennedy and you are telling the Republicans to "stay classy?"

C'mon.

Hell, I'm as liberal as they come and I love this headline.

Theres a difference?

Say 'hi' to Mary-Jo, Teddy.

 
yelmrog 2008-05-17 12:43:28 PM  
Headline made me smile. I'm surprised at the lack of freepers, though. Usually they'd be all over this.

 
muck4doo [TotalFark] 2008-05-17 12:43:34 PM  
One less superdelegate for Obama? Start the Hillary conspiracies!

/Hope he gets better.

 
the_be_sharps [TotalFark] 2008-05-17 12:43:43 PM  
From another one of TFAs ...

"Kennedy had preventive surgery at Boston's Massachusetts General Hospital in October to unclog a partially blocked carotid artery in his neck.

The blockage was discovered during a routine check of Kennedy's back and spine, doctors said. A blocked carotid artery can lead to a stroke and death, they said."

Romero got scooped again.

yeah well that's not unexpected. at this point it's just sad.
there are a lot of sad ,petty people in the world.

 
Caseyallaround 2008-05-17 12:44:03 PM  
I liked this headline better:

"Sen. Kennedy rushed to hospital after suffering an apparent stroke. Apparently was having no feeling on his right side"

Smarter. Not mine.

 
indylaw 2008-05-17 12:44:03 PM  
Give him an IV of 15-year Glenlivet. He'll bounce right back.

Like Popeye.

/Ted Kennedy is the Bender of the human world. He uses booze for fuel.

 
radioshack [TotalFark] 2008-05-17 12:44:13 PM  
I wonder if the libs will make fools out of themselves at his funeral like at Wellstone's.
