SUMMARY: Radio host Laura Ingraham, guest-hosting Fox News' The O'Reilly Factor, and conservative columnist Andrea Tantaros asserted that the Democrats are "playing the death card," using Sen. Edward M. Kennedy's death to promote health care reform in his name. Ingraham and Tantaros' comments are the latest in a long line of attempts by conservatives to attack Democrats and progressives by attaching the word "death" to progressive initiatives, most recently in the debate over health care reform.
