This thread is a heck of a lot more respectful than the thread where someone posted that the tumor that killed Ted Kennedy should have been awarded a Presidential Medal of Freedom.

The entire thread about Ted Kennedys death is a busterduck.

Wait seriously? I can understand why some people not might be all that respectful of Ted Kennedy upon his death(Chappaquiddick the main reason) but to say something like that?

Ay, tumors (plural) in the brain that metastasized from his previous liver cancer? Does not sound good Certainly wishing him all the best, that's quite a brave fight to put up, especially at his age.

Heard Jimmy Carter make his statement on his condition on the radio today. I can only hope to be as mentally cogent and lucid when I reach his age, not to mention as emotionally composed in dealing with such a dire prognosis.

Regarding alleged disrespect to Carter in this thread, I offer this as a counter:

If one wished for an example of grace under pressure, just look at Carter and how he has dealt with the bad hands he has been dealt...
