The open minded side
There are some lines that should not be crossed. I don't like certain leaders in this country. But I believe to openly predict, or perhaps even hope for, ill to bestow them is immoral. I don't understand how one can talk about peace and understanding one minute --saying we should ignore the brutal dictators and terrorists -- and then wish a much worse fate upon the leaders at home.
From Tim Blair's site:
"Former President George W. Bush Dead at 72," exults Greil Marcus in a grotesque mock obituary:

Mr. Bush's life after his presidency was marked by misfortune. He soon lost interest in his status as the standard-bearer of his party and its chief fundraiser; many believed he had again begun drinking, and in any case he seemed to spend most of his time at private clubs in Houston, where he established residence in 2010 after selling his property in Crawford, Texas. ("At least I won't have to cut that f--- brush again," Mr. Bush was heard to say after his last election.) Then on May 1, 2011, Jenna and Barbara Bush were killed in a drunken driving accident in New York City, an incident that also took the lives of seven other people, four of them friends of the Bush daughters. Rumors that a Bush family friend attempted to bribe the police to report that a person other than Jenna or Barbara Bush was driving (the body of Barbara Bush was in the driver's seat) were never confirmed.

If I may say so, this is an absolute disgrace. I know most liberals would think a writing like this goes too far. Most are reasonable, even if they don't agree with the policies of George W. Bush. But there is that fringe that I just can't understand or comprehend. What is wrong with these people?
