Don't Mourn Ted Kennedy's Death -- Fight Like He Fought
Because you KNOW the scumbag Repunks will use this to try to kill one of his life's works - the health care reform bill.

We. Cannot. Let. Them.

There will be time to mourn AFTER decent health care reform is passed. We MUST do what we can to pass it and pass it in his honor. My guess is that's what he'd want.

Then, when Obama signs the bill, can we mourn. But not before.

Honor Ted Kennedy and FIGHT!

4. If you are Irish, you know how to do both at the same time.
We've lost a lion and it is right to shed a few tears. Maybe some of us will rattle our beads. Others will drink a toast. None of that will prevent us from fighting his fight for healthcare for all.

Rest in peace.

6. You got that right: Fight the good fight
(that was one of my favorite hymns when I went to church)

Fight the good fight with all your might....
