Senator Hutchison on Senator Kennedy
Washington and the rest of the world are reacting to the news that "liberal lion", US Senator Ted Kennedy, D-Massachusetts, has been diagnosed with a malignant brain tumor. Texas US Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison released the following this afternoon:
"Sen. Ted Kennedy is a legendary figure in the Senate, having given 46 years of his life to public service.Two weeks ago Sen. Kennedy and I conducted a committee hearing to assess our efforts in fighting cancer, and we heard directly from experts, including Lance Armstrong. Now, as Sen. Kennedy and I are drafting legislation to renew the War on Cancer, we have been given a poignant reminder that the battle has not been won.
At this difficult time, I will offer my prayers for Sen. Kennedy, his wife Vicki, and the entire Kennedy family."
