I think he's a ****e bag but it is bad form to wish people dead.

Agreed.


But, there would be a certain irony if he dies before Schiavo.

yup... I bet Larry is popping the champagne right about now

Dude, if you consider using army puters for Poly, and regarding it as stealing the gov bandwith for your own purposes, you need to get out and seriously loosen up. That's like Korean Code isn't it?

I'm joking, we are allowed to use the internet for whatever after working hours. Not for porn of course.

And it is the Navy

Then what is the internet good for? You just lost 99.99% of it's functionality...

Oh. Then I wish he dies quickly, without having the time to prepare an heir, and I hope his base of support will scatter between the many different reactionaries that will try to fill the void

A multitude of small voices can be a lot more dangerous than one large one.

The last thing he hears should be Carson Kressley's voice.

Oh, that is SO rude. There are gay people lining up to dance there, you know, and all that imitation marble is terribly slippery as it is. Show some consideration, Sava.

I don't wish Falwell dead, myself...he's just another angry man who rabidly supports his probably mistaken beliefs without any thought or reflection. He probably does think that he's doing the right thing. There are lots of people like that in the world, and many more virulent.

The only thing that distinguishes him from any other nut is the peculiarity of his agenda and his effectiveness in advancing it. There are so many bigots in the world that there appears to be little sense in singling out the competent ones for our hatred. It would be wiser to hope this experience teaches him some sense somehow. That would take a miracle, but hey, I believe in a God.

Good luck pissing on that grave. He'll probably be buried in the center of fundy-u

Just before he dies, I want someone to lean over and tell him Bush is being impeached.

Don't you dare. That's like waving a can of spinach in front of Popeye. Lean over and whisper that in his ear, see what happens:

[cue peppy music]
"Ohhhh, so you got something against the heteros, eh? Well, I've gotta mutter mutter mutter..."
[tugging up his shirtsleeves, Rev. Falwell presses a button hidden in his bedside table. Miles away, Justice Scalia's eyes pop open and dilate with rage. Snatching the scales from a nearby statue of Justice, Scalia breaks it open to reveal a submachine gun. Clarence Thomas provides covering fire with a shotgun]
"The time has come! Your ass is mine, Kennedy! Mwahahahaha!"

Do you really want that on your conscience?

Larry Flint was quoted on MSNBC as saying if he prayed he would pray for Jerry Falwell to make a full recovering so Jerry could keep harassing him for the rest of his life.

Were his followers of any political significance?

He was the founding father of "Moral Majority", the organization that hand delivered the fundamentalist vote to the Republican party. At the beginning of this year he announced that he was seeking to start a new movement along the same lines in order to insure that Bush's successor would be someone who would carry on the good work.
