From a letter from Kennedy to the Pope, read aloud at his funeral:
I also want you to know that even though I am ill, I'm committed to do everything I can to achieve access to health care for everyone in my country. This has been the political cause of my life.
There's something very satisfying about seeing McCain and the other conservatives -- who have tried to say that Kennedy would have compromised further, Kennedy would have abandoned his principles, Kennedy would have given the Republicans what they wanted -- put in their place.
Pwned from beyond the grave, McCain. How's that feel?
