dems,
People like you make attempts at deceny and honesty incredibly difficult.
I correctly chastise my own for being disrespectul of the Wellstone tragedy and my crew basically says "BS, dems are a bunch of nasty jerks no matter what...they earn nor seserve any respect..."
And then you coming racing along to prove them right and make me look like an ### for caring about showing respect to you as a party.
First, you flat out lie:
His son got things started and Senator Wellstone hated Republicans.
Unlike Kennedy, Clinton, Byrd, Leahy and others, Wellstone was noted by his opponents as being of utmost integrity, a good person, honest and dignified. Nowhere can you show that Wellstone "hated republicans" because it simply is not true.
As you seem to know nothing about the man you might need to also know he was in favor impeaching little Bill.
Lott and others were there as his FRIENDS, people he worked with. Other members of the GOP from Minnesota, personal friends, were there to simply pay respect, something commonly done at MEMORIAL services.
Maybe Kyle and others are right. Maybe you people are so petty, small and vicious that you can't see honest debate where people fight tooth and nail for opposite positions, let the votes decided then go home as friends, respectful and maybe even admiring.
Maybe the only thing thing that does matter to you is raw power however gained.
Very Clintonesque of you to state:
Ok, here we go. The display at the memorial service was deplorable, I cannot defend that
then go about defending it;
They demeaned that man his entire tenure, but in death they are friends? No, no, no, no, no. Lott should have stayed away.
Oh, the final straw in your ugliness?
But, I honestly believe that Paul Wellstone would have wanted that
Your narrow minded, uniformed "thought" is belied by the simple fact that Paul Wellstone never did such any ugly thing in his life.
In death, you're going to speak for him?
I don't think so.
I wonder if you are capable of shame? Doesn't sound like it.
