I’m hard pressed trying to recall a time I’ve agreed with the man’s politics, but I’d never wish physical harm on Sen. Kennedy. The Associated Press now reports that he has been diagnosed with a malignant brain tumor.

Sen. Edward M. Kennedy say he has a malignant brain tumor.

Doctors for the Massachusetts Democrat say tests conducted after Kennedy suffered a seizure this weekend show a tumor in his left parietal lobe. His treatment will be decided after more tests but the usual course includes combinations of radiation and chemotherapy.

The 76-year-old senator has been hospitalized in Boston since Saturday, when he was airlifted from Cape Cod after a seizure at his home.

Thoughts and prayers are with the Senator and his family through this tough time. Try to hang in there, Ted.
