On the money, there was plenty of that to go around before they entered the Political scene, what with Old Joe and the glory days of running liquor during the Prohibition ...

BOSTON — Sen. Edward M. Kennedy has a malignant brain tumor.
Doctors for the Massachusetts Democrat say tests conducted after Kennedy suffered a seizure this weekend show a tumor in his left parietal lobe. Preliminary results from a biopsy of the brain identified the cause of the seizure as a malignant glioma, they said.
His treatment will be decided after more tests but the usual course includes combinations of radiation and chemotherapy.
The 76-year-old senator has been hospitalized in Boston since Saturday, when he was airlifted from Cape Cod after a seizure at his home.
His wife and children have been with him each day but have made no public statements.
His doctors said in a statement released to the Associated Press that he has had no further seizures, is in good spirits and is resting comfortably.
Malignant gliomas are a type of brain cancer diagnosed in about 9,000 Americans a year — and the most common type among adults. It's a starting diagnosis: How well patients fare depends on what specific tumor type is determined by further testing.
Average survival can range from less than a year for very advanced and aggressive types — such as glioblastomas — or to about five years for different types that are slower growing. |

If I were him, I'd ask my cousin Maria for her husband's opinion.

None of the politicians I hate EVER get brain tumors.... only ones I have strong dislike for. I mean, I'd wish uncontrollable flatulence on Teddy, but not this.

So, in Washington they're having a love fest as if he was a diety instead of the Black Sheep of the Kennedy Family, not surprising though as few people will actually say what's on their mind ...
Senator, you're no Jack Kennedy ...

Senator, you're no Jack Kennedy ... | I hate to be disrespectful but what you're saying is true... Mary Jo is probably waiting to escort him to wherever he's going once he gets there.
