Strom Anyone?

No one, even Catholics, maybe especially Catholics, ought to say nice things when the truth is available.

Newly dead persons, as Sen. Thurmond is, may deserve a moment of silence rather than saying anything that might serve as praise for this racist of the highest degree.

Joe

I agree with Joe. I am always amused by people who despise someone while they were living, and then speak lovingly of them when they die.

No, thank you.

Had my fill of him while he still on this side of the lawn.

Okay you guys, I was trying to be the BIGGER person here, guess I was wrong. He was an awful, putrid human being, but in our faces all the time. I would like to say burn in hell, but I am afraid I will for saying that. Oops... seems I just said that!

May his soul rest in peace.

Shalom
