I'll nominate this "liberal vegetarian" for a Darwin Award. Natural selection in action. Both women should be pleased that they reduced their chances of spawning village idiots.

When cops found his body in lower Manhattan's hallowed ground Saturday morning, they found a note to his girlfriend saying she was "too good" for him, a source said. The note also included a reference to Bush's victory, the source said.

An "I'm to good for you, my candidate won" letter?

But the day after Bush won, Veal bought a shotgun in an Athens store and drove to New York, a source said, where he went on a spending spree with his girlfriend's credit card.

How must this make the woman he was going to marry feel?

LUCKY!

I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around this tragic event.
I suppose that if he wanted all the world to know that he shot himself,he succeeded.
It was a terrible exploitation of 9/11.
Typical liberal...

"liberal vegetarian"

Studies have shown that eating steak and reading National Review, once a week, prevents suicide.

[Thinkin' Gal]

Veal was a peaceful, liberal vegetarian who hated guns...

Where to start?

[konaice]

Oh, good now there is someplace new on the East Coast to commit suicide other than jumping into Niagra falls.

Gene pool clean-up on Isle Five!!!

An apparently peaceful, liberal vegetarian who hated guns and worked at a university. I'll bet he hated his name - Veal.

[Gamecock]

Man who killed self at Ground Zero upset about election, girlfriend (new details emerge)

Arminians really need to lighten up.

[Dallas59]

See what happens when you don't eat meat and screw around on your fiance....

[LongsforReagan]

The timing of this is suspicious. Karl Rove had better have and alibi.

[nosurrender]

I'll probably be pulled for this or considered a troll, but I'm actually willing to listen. If everyone wants to insult me, so be it, but it's sincere. I'm a liberal, and I know you guys don't like that.

I feel that I was lied to about this war. I feel that UBL hated Saddam (yes, I am familiar with the fact that both were mass murderers). And I think this war was a victory for UBL, because it distracted from the WOT.

Give me links to websites if you need to; just tell me why my country has not lost its mind. I'll probably still disagree, and that's OK. I just don't want to think we've gone mad. I usually go on left-wing sites, so maybe there's something I don't know.

The suicide victim, Andrew Veal, was discovered on a concrete slab in the construction pit near the Church Street subway entrance Saturday morning. A bottle of Jack Daniel's was by his side, and a 12-gauge shotgun lay across his body. Authorities believe that Veal, who was engaged to be married, killed himself sometime Friday — his birthday, friends said.

Law-enforcement officials and friends said Veal, a project coordinator at the University of Georgia Research Center who also did political polling, had been depressed over the outcome of the election.

Friends also said he may have killed himself to protest the war in Iraq.

Selfish and arrogant with other people's money to the very end: the perfect Democrat.

[Stateline]

"I think he wanted it to be dramatic"....Oh...I see.. just a drama queen....

[Imal]

It's All Bush's Fault!(tm)

Yet another death that can be laid at Dubya's feet.

If it wasn't for Bush, this young man would be alive, aliiiive! Oh the humanity.

Sorry, I know it's crass, but somebody had to say it.

[PBRSTREETGANG]

He was a Kerry supporter?

Sounds like Veal Francais.

[jcharmony]

How long do your arms have to be to shoot yourself with a shotgun?

[woofie]

Im glad he was just an incredibly wonderful person - sensitive, passionate, caring and kind, otherwise he might have been a schmuck.

"We're all trying to understand, and nobody does."

It's impossible to understand the liberal mind because it has no basis in logic.
