15. Fallwell lived a long life doing what he wanted to do and getting rich doing it.
Edited on Tue May-15-07 06:43 PM by BurtWorm
He was the image of self-satisfied sanctimony, hated roundly for the unending flow of hatred from his own mouth for all of his years, and he seemed to love being hated. He got the life he asked for. What harm can a little hate on his death day do anyone, really? True, he can't enjoy it. His "side," however, is loving the spectacle of the left's outpouring of uncensored sentiment, just as much as he would have. This side is enjoying the freedom to continue into Falwell's death expressing the contempt for him his whole life merited. No one is harmed except those who wish the vitriol would just stop. And maybe the family. Here's hoping they have the feelings to be hurt that Falwell didn't--not because I wish them hurt, but because I wish them real human feeling.
