I posted the following on my facebook page today (concerning Brietbart):

Me:


Concerning Andrew Brietbart:

"I'm more than willing to go off decorum to ensure THIS MAN is not beatified. Sorry, he destroyed lives. And he knew it."



It was followed by several angry posts from all of my rightwing relatives calling me a "monster" and worse.


I then followed up with this:



Oops. I left something out of my original post. Sorry, here's the attribution.

"I'm more than willing to go off decorum to ensure THIS MAN is not beatified. Sorry, he destroyed lives. And he knew it." - Andrew Brietbart, the day after Ted Kennedy's death





That post got two dozen "likes" and some supportive responses from my friends. But not a single reply by one of the original rightwing posters.


Funny that, eh?

from high school. We all got on building up to our 30 year reunion. I never post anything political but I will reply to those that do.

So far not one peep about Frightfart. If they did post anything, I was going to say, COVERUP! He really accidently swallowed a gagball and choke to death! I don't care who you are, that there is funny!

Almost.

But good one!

"Two wrongs don't make a right. Andrew was wrong to say that about Kennedy, and you're just as wrong."



Progress, I guess.
