Same Sh*t, Different Democrat. Now, we have the Ted Kennedy Memorial Heathcare Bill.

I’m going to go ahead and agree with Jay that Kennedy has now gone on to his reward. (Hope n’ Change has a little light take on it.) I have just two questions: first, why is this man being celebrated? Second, he was Edward Kennedy… so why in blazes is he called “Teddy?”

    I have been wondering the same thing. Ed is short for Edward. Teddy is short for Theodore. Maybe it was typo that stuck

    Same reason John was called Jack?

      Actually, Jack is a common nickname for John in Irish families. I have no idea. (shrugs)
