1. If we pray for his non-recovery would we be good Christians?

7. May he soon be reunited with the "man" he tried to replace. No need for heavy clothing where they will be spending the rest of time (if you believe in that bullshit).

13. I have literally nothing to say.
Mostly because I'll say something insulting.

Classy as usual, DU. :bird:

I hope Haig's treatment isn't delayed by a screwup in that hospital's dumbass mailroom.

Good one, sir.
Awesome.

He worked with President Reagan, may he rest in peace. Simple as that.

Ah yes. Compassionate "progrssives".

They are truly disgusting people. They must be a joy to be around IRL.

these ...uh...people (?) are just weird. :mental:

Call them "individuals," or "inDUviduals," instead.

Even that doesn't work very well. The DUmmies act more like a hive mind when it comes to the illness or death of a conservative.

Actually, I'm going to steal a term from Scott Adams when describing DU:
In-DUH-viduals.

It's comforting to know that this man accomplished, with his solitary life, more than what all the DUmmies as a combined collective ever will.

This by the way was posted before Alexander Haig died.
I've been watching Skins's island since the announcement of his death, to see how the primitives take it; not much reaction to report yet.

This DUmmie Thread (http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=102x4276825) provides a sampling of their "respect for the dead".

37. RIP? **** that. Burn in hell you horrible bastard!
There was one DUmmie trying to be respectful, but I think it was a low count Freeper troll ordering his pizza.

Point conceded. :bow:

Hey frank, why all the pictures of those commie bastards? You trying to tell us something?

No.
Clue: when a series of somewhat-related avatars show up, it's because I'm at that moment reading about them (English cathedrals, writers of the 19th century, Henry Luce, the silkworm industry in France, and in this case, the Soviet Union during the mid-1900s).
I was disappointed nobody recognized Alexei Kosygin.
Chris usually catches them; it's hard to fool Chris.

Man.
Even when Ted Kennedy assumed room temperature I don't think I saw this much vitriol on conservative sites. True, there was some gloating and biting of tongues to not make crass posts, but nothing like what the DUmmies are doing to Haig, a veteran of the Korean War and Vietnam War, a recipient of the Distinguished Service Cross, the Silver Star with oak leaf cluster and the Purple Heart.
I wonder how many DUmmies could match his accomplishments....

Surely you jest, sir.
The accomplishments of all the primitives on Skins's island all put together wouldn't be enough to even lick Alexander Haig's shoe.

I'm thinking taking the entire DU sites deeds, good and bad together wouldn't even be good enough to let them swamp out his septic tank.

Or clean the last head he used with their tongues.

Alexander Haig was a great man, a great patriot. He was the kind of man who makes me proud to be an American.
