LOL... ...and that's exactly the reason the Repubs will in the minority for a long long time. Their best hope was when they pretended to be Libertarian in '93.
OK, you have won the Moral Equivalence Trophy back from that other moron. You can't tell the difference between a man of God and OBL. You disappoint me. You are better than this.
He can <b>easily</b> tell the difference between a mass-murderer and a controversial-yet-non-homicidal figure like Falwell. However, his strict observance of the troll's code forces him to <b>pretend</b> otherwise.
So you celebrate when a man you don't consider a man of God dies? Perhaps you should spend some time reading John Donne... John Donne (1572-1631), Devotions Upon Emergent Occasions, Meditation XVII: Nunc Lento Sonitu Dicunt, Morieris: "Perchance he for whom this bell tolls may be so ill, as that he knows not it tolls for him; and perchance I may think myself so much better than I am, as that they who are about me, and see my state, may have caused it to toll for me, and I know not that. ... No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main. If a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as if a manor of thy friend's or of thine own were: any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind, and therefore never send to know for whom the bells tolls; it tolls for thee."
Your imagination is on the rise again... People around here know I oppose the death penalty, and I don't subscribe to the primitive Hebrew and old Testament eye for an eye animalistic thinking...
Access Hollywood | Larry Flynt On Jerry Falwell: Hustler Lawsuit Revisited On Day Of Rival's Death | Celebrity and Hollywood News AP Larry Flynt On Jerry Falwell: Hustler Lawsuit Revisited On Day Of Rival's Death LYNCHBURG, Va (May 15, 2007) -- The Rev. Jerry Falwell, the folksy, small-town preacher who used the power of television to found the Moral Majority and turn the Christian right into a mighty force in American politics during the Reagan years, died Tuesday at 73. One of Falwell's most memorable opponents was Hustler kingpin Larry Flynt, who had a very public legal battle with the Reverend over freedom of speech rights. At the heart of the case was a satirical ad that ran in Hustler in 1983with the headline "Jerry Falwell Talks About His First Time," in which the magazine described a drunken Falwell having an incestuous encounter with his mother. Falwell sued Flynt (pictured together on "Larry King Live" in 1997), alleging libel and intentional infliction of emotional distress. However, the Supreme Court ruled that a public figure could not recover damages over distress based on satire under the umbrella of free speech. Upon hearing of his death, Flynt released the following statement to Access Hollywood: "The Reverend Jerry Falwell and I were arch enemies for fifteen years. We became involved in a lawsuit concerning First Amendment rights and Hustler magazine. Without question, this was my most important battle â the l988 Hustler Magazine, Inc., v. Jerry Falwell case, where after millions of dollars and much deliberation, the Supreme Court unanimously ruled in my favor. My mother always told me that no matter how much you dislike a person, when you meet them face to face you will find characteristics about them that you like. Jerry Falwell was a perfect example of that. I hated everything he stood for, but after meeting him in person, years after the trial, Jerry Falwell and I became good friends. He would visit me in California and we would debate together on college campuses. I always appreciated his sincerity even though I knew what he was selling and he knew what I was selling. The most important result of our relationship was the landmark decision from the Supreme Court that made parody protected speech, and the fact that much of what we see on television and hear on the radio today is a direct result of my having won that now famous case which Falwell played such an important role in." Falwell is survived by his wife, Macel, his two sons and a daughter, Jeannie Falwell Savas. Funeral arrangements were not immediately known.
Falwell, an example of the human race at its worst. Loved and missed by his family and friends, just as Ava Braun loved Hitler. There is no explaining, just a natural occurrence in the history of man. Falwell and Hitler reviled and loved , both of them./ And both played major roles in influencing human thought. Both were incredibly destructive. They leave as a legacy destroyed lives and the ill will that they visited upon us by their non-acceptance of people who thought differently then they, and their false teachings. Falwell, through his sincerity, the cloaking of hatred in "Christian righteousness," and through an outward jovial nature, became a dangerous, dangerous man!
Damn aaa do you kiss your mother with that mouth. Of all the people in need for someone to stand up for them you go ballistic for poor ol falwell. He was a self righteous judgmental ass and when your an ass for long enough and mistreat enough people this happens. Rejoicing ...? your just being melodramatic.
