I remember when Paul Wellstone died and the nonsense I saw on those right wing sites - horrible. And don't forget Andy. The extremist freeps were so hateful. There's a whiff of that here today over Tim Russerts death. It's unfortunate.

That's all I wanted to say.

3. Deification of someone for merely dying is rather kooky as well.
 A little perspective would be valuable

5. Don't mix up admiration and respect with deification.

6. you've been here long enough
 Did you object just as loudly when Ford, Falwell, or Reggie White died?
I remember far more extreme hatred and rejoicing then than I see now. Now I see some DUers saying "Russert was not all that and a bag of chips" and that is conflated somehow with 'dancing on his grave' or 'grave pi$$ing'.

So I'd like you to link me to something that you are complaining about and also, if you can, to your objections to the grave dancing about Falwell and Ford.

How about President Reagan and Pope John Paul ?

that's bullshit and you should be ashamed, there's no reason on earth to bring Andy's name up AT ALL..

I think I've only alerted about Four Times in Seven years here, but the use of his name is beyond the Pale.

So it's Andy that will be sitting at the right hand of the Obamassiah?

symbolman is just a little touchy, eh ?

I reread the comment, there is nothing negative from a DUmmy perspective at all -- other than using the name of The Anointed One in something other than reverence.
