Well Roper,
I aint trying to make you angry.
But I will maintain my right to speak my mind however I see fit.
You wont see me criticize others for statements that I find trite or maudlin.
It is their right to feel and say what they think.
To me Senator Tombstone represented all that is wrong with America. He was one of the worst politicians for reducing issues to a reactionary, emotional, tear jerking level. Forget intelligence. Forget reason. Forget the facts.
Be totally honest with the people and Just feel.
For 12 years he represented special interests that vie against everything I was taught was good and true. Every moral value that I was taught by family, church, the military, or just having to work for a living, his constituancies were against.
I didn't wish him dead. I would have seen him defeated in this election first.
Lord knows, we'll have our share of memorials,
and naming buildings after him. We'll have plenty of time for sympathy and feelings.
If I understand Jeff Hoo correctly, a tragic death does not erase a hundred votes in the Senate that embarassed me as a Minnesotan, and affronted me as an American.
And I just might engage in tomfoolery at his passing.
He might have been a worthy man but he was a foe to me.
