Re: Ted Kennedy rushed to hospital
What Americans call a leftie is usually what we would call a Conservative (imho).

Is this all because of the Chappaquiddick incident, or something else i'm missing?
Anyways, it seems now he had a seizure, not a stroke.

Re: Ted Kennedy rushed to hospital
Yes punky that's the reason.
I know he that he has made a lot of difference in the Senate in the intervening years but I think a full and frank admission of what took place is very long overdue.Maybe the incident has made him a better senator but hopefully he will be honest about that fateful night...eventually.
I was saddened by the event because at the time it certainly dimmed the Kennedy heritage as well as a young girl losing her life.

He has a brain tumour

Senator Edward M Kennedy says he has a malignant brain tumour.
Doctors for the Massachusetts Democrat say tests conducted after Kennedy suffered a seizure this weekend show a tumour in his left parietal lobe.
