Inaccurate, but, of course, from you, it is to be expected.
One wonders how you might have coped were you in constant fear of being
assassinated like two of your brothers, or killed in a war, like another
brother. Teddy had a really troubled life and he did some terrible
things, but...he probably was the greatest U.S. Senator of the 20th
Century, and made a positive difference in the lives of millions of
lower and middle income Americans, which is more than any of your fellow
conservatrashers have done.

Teddy used to walk his Portuguese water dog, Splash, down from the Hill
and stop in to see an old friend of his at ULLICO, and if I was there, I
got to dogsit for an hour or so. It was my privilege.

You failed to notice I did not excuse his substance abuse, but simply
offered an explanation as to why it was so severe in his case. You are
really, truly, a terrible christian.

It's not the last resort but in your case, it is accurate. None of the
practicing christians I know share your right-wing, unforgiving stance
on so many societal matters and social issues. My late father-in-law was
a right-winger and a devout christian, but he didn't put down others for
their human foibles and shortcomings. Indeed, at my father-in-law's
funeral, the minister spoke at great length about the help he offered
others in serious need, and his refusal to engage in judgmental
commentary. But judgmental commentary seems to be all you have.

I wonder what whoever will say about you at your funeral?

“judgmental commentary seem to be all you have.”

Talking into the mirror, Harry?

"Whoever" plans to say about me:

Like Abou ben Adhem, Harry was one who loved his fellow man.

Pot, kettle, black?

'Airree, your mean spirited hypocrisy shines brightly all the way
across the Atlantic Ocean. That said, your constant trolling for
attention does help to keep the newsgroup alive.
