Didn't like Russert at all.

What's with FReepers sudden adoration of people like Paul Newman, Tim Russert, even Ted Kennedy in his illness?

Sheesh. Conservatives are off their rocker.

It’s called “compassion”. You may want to try it sometime.

Not exactly ‘adoration’ just a respect for life, all life, unlike the other side which wishes to destroy it.

No I don’t agree that conservatives are off their rockers, as you put it. I would say that despite the fact that conservative dislike what this class of people stand for and may not even like them in any way on a personal level, still they wish no evil upon them and have some sensitivity for the worries and fears that affect the families involved in difficult times.
That is a significant difference between conservatives and some of the hate filled lefties who would dance on the grave of President they despise rather than take a moment and have any respect for the family he leaves behind.

It’s called class, decorum, civilized, being better people than the libs.

There are plenty of people who I don’t agree with but whom I still respect. I’ll leave the hating of those who disagree with you to the liberals.

Yeah, just look where “compassionate conservatism” the new tone and extending a hand to the left has gotten us...our Conservative butts handed to us in 2006, the media elected our candidate for President and the liberals still hate our guts...yeah, nice guys finish last....

I think you missed the point. Remember the phrase “love your enemies”? Well, many times I don’t want to either, but, the rewards of it are great and it makes one a better person. Don’t misunderstand, there is a time to hate as in hate the sin not the sinner.

" ... Sheesh. Conservatives are off their rocker."


Conservatives? You mean these "compasionate conservatives"?


After 7+ years of "compasionate conservatism" anyone can see what that attitude brings.


They love their enemy don't you know?

It's called being human. Remember the responses on DU when Reagan died? We're better than that.

I'm with you on this one. Lots of dopes on FR these days. I'll sum it up: People who compromise with evil become the victim of evil and spread it onto others.

Intolerance to the forces of your demise is prequisite for responsibility and trustworthyness. FR is often like taking a ride with a driver who offers panhandlers a lift and seats them next to you. I.e., socialism.

I’m not saying anything bad about the libs because the moderators got mad and banned me for a week when I said something about TK. So I’m keeping my mouth shut because they don’t like you talking about bad about the libs on here.

May God Bless all the libs like Ted Kennedy ,Tim Russert,Bill Clinton, etc....

Uh, Conservatives have more class and they aren’t afraid to show it?
