Does anyone else find it offensive the way the Democrats are politicizing the death of Kennedy?

I find it no small coincidence that Obama just "happens" to be vacationing at Martha's Vineyard when Ted Kennedy pes away. How long was this vacation in the works? Or was there some tipoff by a doctor, indicating that time was short ... It certainly is politically expedient for Obama to be there. Nonetheless, suddenly this "Great Lion of the Senate" is being elevated to martyr status, and Pelosi has vowed to make sure the healthcare bill pes - in honor of of the memory of Ted Kennedy. Senator Robert (KKK) Byrd has even proposed renaming the bill so that it bears his name. Perhaps one of the greatest public sinners in any of our lifetimes, Ted Kennedy is being elevated to near sainthood in death by Pelosi, Reid, the Democrats and the Main Stream Media, and seemingly for the purpose of garnering emotional support for what he called "the cause of his life". Obama promised us transparency in the new administration - is this what he meant?
