27. Yes, prayer heals...
... but you have to cauterize the wound.
Otherwise the dogs'll get at the carcass too soon.

19. Careful...
I started disputing people here about the deaths of troops and all most had to say is 'did they vote for bush? then they deserved it'. People losing their jobs that would have been lost anyway and it's 'did they vote for *....too bad...'
We need to help and support our fellow Amercans!
C'mon folks, let's not be happy about other's misfortunes.

(here's where I get called a troll again)

20. Troll!!!!
Just kidding...didn't want you to feel like nobody was paying attention!

As for your post, I agree that it is important for us as good liberals to care about the suffering of others regardless of their actions that may have initiated the suffering.

That being said, I will have a very hard time feeling empathy toward a Bush supporter who loses their job to an overseas firm. I can offer my condolences sincerely, but empathy and compassion are going to be hard to muster.

Kids getting killed in Iraq is another issue altogether. Death is never deserved.

32. I'm not happy.
But I'm darned if I can understand why I should support people whose family members were sent off to Iraq without adequate supplies and who voted for Bush anyway. I guess some of that republican hard heartedness is starting to rub off

36. You know what.....
save that sappy shit for the Oprah show or, as one DU'er called it - the "Rodney King can't we all just get along" mentality. That sappy shit never got us anywhere. While we're being all sappy, the repugs are shitting all over us. Can you spell "doormat?"

I don't blame their religious leanings, nor ignore them. It is just a very sad thing that happens sometimes.

10. If he had ONLY stopped to ask, "What would Dubya want me to do?"
He would have realized that since he is not wealthy, Dubya really wants him to stick around and pay his taxes.

It's also not funny in huge numbers, as in George W. Bush's crimes in Iraq.

33. Lotsa Loonies in OkieLand.
How do you retire from preaching anyway? Do you just say one day, well I feel out of breath? I no longer have the youthful rage to scream and yell at my flock? Just curious.

34. I knew I should not have clicked on this thread
But I guess I am a masochist at heart.

Do ya think we could hold off on the sick jokes until more facts are in. This could actually be a double murder. And even if it isn't it is still a tragedy.

Makes me wonder how many found the poor bastard who ran his daughter over with a car by accident funny and wondered who voted for who.


I know I should just delete this reply and that so many of us are hurting and lashing out in whatever way we can but, to quote Barry White on The Simpsons, "You people are sick"

37. Now what would Agatha Christie say?
Knowing that everyone would suspect his wife was murdered by vicious al Qaeda agents, the disgruntled murderer beheaded her and then made it look like he had been kidnapped and thrown into the river. Meanwhile he is hiding in a local church basement with the help of his mentor, Jerry Falwell, who he had served for years as a secret butt boy.
