President Obama let Kennedy Speak to Congress from grave via letter

President Obama let Kennedy Speak to Congress from grave via letter

President Barack Obama  let Senator Ted Kennedy speak from the grave on 9.09.09. This is the second time Kennedy spoke from the Grave.  First he spoke through a letter at a  Arlington grave side funeral service via letter to the Pope. 2nd he spoke in a letter given to Obama after his death. Portions of  that  letter were read during Obama’s speech before Congress on Tuesday night.

Here is what Obama said via the Huffington Post:

I received one of those letters a few days ago. It was from our beloved friend and colleague, Ted Kennedy. He had written it back in May, shortly after he was told that his illness was terminal. He asked that it be delivered upon his death.

In it, he spoke about what a happy time his last months were, thanks to the love and support of family and friends, his wife, Vicki, and his children, who are here tonight . And he expressed confidence that this would be the year that health care reform – “that great unfinished business of our society,” he called it – would finally pass. He repeated the truth that health care is decisive for our future prosperity, but he also reminded me that “it concerns more than material things.” “What we face,” he wrote, “is above all a moral issue; at stake are not just the details of policy, but fundamental principles of social justice and the character of our country.”

This was indeed a sad thing. The President of the United States using a Senator  in the grave to sell his Health Care Plan.

Here are  some of President Obama’s remarks from townhall.com

President Barack Obama called Walter Cronkite “a voice of certainty in a world that was growing more and more uncertain.”

Speaking at a memorial service for the legendary newsman, Obama acknowledged he hadn’t known Cronkite personally, “but I have benefited as a citizen from his dogged pursuit of the truth.

“But if we realize that the kind of journalism he embodied will not simply rekindle itself as part of the natural cycle, but will come alive only if we stand up and demand it,” Obama said he was convinced “the golden days of journalism still lie ahead.”
