It appears that the bubble headed bleach blond of DC political coverage, Politico, is reporting that “key conservatives” are warning that liberals may inappropriately politicize Senator Kennedy’s death.
They call it the, “Wellstone Effect,” which I guess means that a legitimate outpouring of grief over the death of a hero will be used by the America hating right wing, and a complicit press, to create the illusion that real human grief is somehow a sinister conspiracy.
As to those right wingers who are somehow all upset that it appears that Kennedy’s name will now go on the healthcare reform bill, let me say this: Teddy Kennedy was at his worst better than your best at their best: Ronald Reagan was not fit to shine the sole of Ted Kennedy’s shoes with his tongue.
