        Well, perhaps he is hoping that Purdue Pharmaceuticals will pay for -his- funeral when the time comes. I bet they at least send a card and a big bouquet.

          More likely, Purdue Pharmaceuticals will be receiving a big card and bouquet . . . after all, they will be losing one of their best customers . . .

            I find it pathetically sad that an addict will dis another man's self medication problems. You are a sick, sick man, Rushbo and you have NO sense of karma.

        Seeing as he lies about everything else, I have no reason to believe that El Rushbo ever got off the OxyContin Express. Especially with his wacky theories......

      He "know[s] it's not he Kennedy trust" that's paying for his funeral?

      More enlightening info from the Bureau of Rush's ***.

        Try to be understanding. Rush's pilonidal cyst is squeezing his reasoning factor.

      Actually, Mr. Limbaugh, he is being buried at Arlington.

      "Kennedy is eligible for burial at Arlington by virtue of his service in Congress as well as his two years in the Army, 1951 to 1953. He was a private first class and served in the military police at Supreme Headquarters Allied Powers Europe, then located in Paris and now in Belgium."

      http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/32569408/

      So, from a moral standpoint, he paid for his own funeral with service to his country. He served in the Army, something you were unwilling to do. From a strictly financial point of view, the government will pay, which means taxpayers, which means... You! You helped pay for his funeral, Rush. There. Now your question has been answered.

      I find myself for the second day in a row now doing your research for you. Only one of us earns $40 million a year, the other is unpaid. Based on the actual work done, I think our salaries are a bit disproportionate.

        I guess, if you believe what that Huffpo article stated, Mary Jo Kopechnie is really proud today.

          Using your logic, I guess when Cheney dies the 4,000 dead US soldiers will be proud as well.

      And this is a man that the so-called "religious right" listens to for guidance in all things political.

      As a Christian, I'm sickened by this man.

      Senator Kennedy will be buried in a place appropriate to his service to this nation, Rush. Potter's Field is waiting for you.

      Come on Rush. Cutty Sark?

      Kennedy could do better than that. I'm sure it was Bushmill's!

        If you wanted to make a joke, you should have said Johnny Walker Black, because Kennedy was rich.

        But joking about someone who just died is kinda crass, don'tcha think?

      Don't know, but I would be happy to chip in for Rush's funeral if we can have it sooner than later

        As christians I think this is not the time to trash any one! Lets just pray for the repose of the soul of Edward Kennedy.

      The way the economy is I think the Kennedys should pay for the entire funeral with the exception of the lot in Arlington...When my brother died he did not get all the fan fare and he served his country the same time as Kennedy.
