Line of the day

In a NY Times article called "Hold the Eulogies", Sen. Chris Dodd, commenting on the abundance of tributes and testimonials given to Sen. Ted Kennedy recently, had a great line this week:
“It’s the goal of every Irishman to be able to be a witness to your own eulogy,” said Senator Christopher J. Dodd, Democrat of Connecticut. “This is sheer heaven for him.”

Hearing Mr. Dodd’s words repeated on Friday, Mr. Kennedy let loose with a rollicking laugh.
Dodd absolutely wins "Line of the Day" for that wonderful quip. Well done, Senator!

Sure and it will be a great day in the land when they eulogize Barry O'Bama. J.C. Sr.
