Durbin On Ed Show: Kennedy & Byrd Wouldn't Be Able To Vote If It Were Held Today?

[Dinger]

WTF? How is Senator Kennedy? I hope he's o.k. I'll never give up hope.

1. Kennedy would vote on a health care bill

You're talking about his life's work here. If he had to be carted in on a stretcher to vote, he would do it.

2. Not good -

the treatments he's receiving are, I assume, really debilitating.

And there's a news blackout on Senator Byrd's condition. This time, they didn't even allow the name of the hospital to be made public, but I have this bad feeling that he won't return.

I cannot bear to think about what might happen to Senator Kennedy. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

4. We're going have to start getting used to it

I swear, he's surviving on sheer will and the hope that a health care bill - as we know, his life's work - will be one he can vote for.

A dream of mine for the last few years has been "The Edward M. Kennedy Health Care For America Act".

5. And of his,

for decades.

But they're talking about October.

That's a long, long way away ...........................

7. It Seems That People Who Are Seriously Ill Have A Way Of Holding On

to see a loved one, or to get a health care bill, for example. Hell, I want Teddy to live forever!

3. frankly, i think kennedy is waiting to vote on healthcare. he wants to

get that done. Let's give him a great healthcare bill to vote on senators!! a real example of someone who may not have to know what it's like for the rest of us who is still fighting to get us what we need. I hope they give him a GOOD bill to vote on and get it passed.
