Did he come to Christ at the end?
Or remain a bitter communist?

This is what happens if you let yourself get too old.

Old people (over 85) die when:

1. They retire after working all their lives
2. Their spouses die

Statistically for some reason, if you keep working into your 80s, you will die very quickly after you retire. This is true whether you choose to retire at 85 or 95....

RIP Rooney. I was not your fan but vaya con Dios. I wish you a blessed Eternal life.

I am very sorry. I am sorry for his family and friends. I remember a 60 Minutes where he took issue with the Ten Commandments. I hope that in the interveening years he changed his mind and heart.

Wow, just a couple of weeks ago he did a segment on 60 minutes, about his retirement. Sorry to hear of his passing. Some of his rants were pretty good.

Was Rooney a lefty Marxist?
I wouldn’t know.
I probably last saw him on TV maybe 25 years ago.

Back in those days, Commies were an unknown quantity.
Today, they seem to be the standard in broadcast and
celebrity status.

Best to remember my mother’s sage advice:
“Best not to say anything unless you can say something nice.”

Fox ‘n Friends are covering his passing as though he worked at Faux.

I guess he is boring Saint Peter now with his:

“Why are they “pearly” gates? Wouldn't just plain wood or wrought iron gates do just as well? I mean,it's not like anyone even notices them what with wondering whether they will be going up or down and not so much about going in or out...”

(God): "ENOUGH!!!"

“Do you ever notice how some people just can’t handle retirement? I do. It seems like one minute they’re getting a gold watch and saying their goodbyes and the next minute they just drop dead. It’s almost like the stress of having nothing to do all day was just too much for them...”

Because he was a WWII vet I gave him a little slack. Otherwise he was just another liberal geezer at most.
