Lets not forget that wacko feminist author who just died.
You are right, first therapy, now death. How long before the DNC demands federal money for this depression.
For the life long democrats it must realy be sad to see their party dying the death of a thousand leftists.
And they still don't have the right to vote at age 16, so why mention this?
You hate to laugh at something like this but ...
Oh--that is VERY good!!
Yep, WE need a poster at the RNC convention saying--"Esther it ain't the party of FDR anymore"--showing pictures of every prominent RAT US-hating kook in Congress (Bagdad Jim, Maxine, the Georgia terrorist lover, yada, yada).
It emphasizes that FDR did try to save the US when it was under attack. The present day RAT clowns just want to tear it down.
I think it is terribly sad that she chose to make her final statement so hateful & meaningless. I hope at my funeral, my friends and family will discuss things I did to make their lives better. I'd prefer something joyous instead of politics.
Mrs. Wescott, who was 100, was born in Portland on Nov. 10, 1904, 16 years before American women had the right to vote, ten years before the popular election of the U.S. Senate, 39 years after the end of the Civil War, and at least 100 years before the Portland Press Herald hired anyone with a brain to write obituaries.
I love the quote from her son: "If she had been born in an era when women had more rights, her son said, she would have accomplished a lot." Yes, given her later politics, she probably would have had an abortion, rather than giving us another lib to carry on.
Her husband is an old WW2 air force guy. Their votes cancel each other's out almost every election...
Hasta la vista, baby.
Brutal. Just the way I like it.
That's one less.
This shows the depth of Democrats hatred. Most would die with thoughts of God or family Demorats die with thought of hatred for George Bush,
My mother-in-law died at the kitchen table and her last words were about peeling potatoes. I don't think she "chose that as her final statement." I can also assure you that at her funeral we discussed things she did to make our lives better, not potatoes.
People die suddenly, go into comas and die days later, and leave this world under any number of circumstances that preclude them from summing up the meaning of their lives in one last sentence.
The article doesn't say how this woman passed on, merely what her son recalls as her last words to him "shortly" before she died - perhaps they were merely discussing the election - and the paper chose to bracket that information with the fact that she was a lifelong Democrat. Yet she obviously lived a full, rounded life - she was a deaconess at her Baptist church and a member of the Women's Fellowship Group, member of a literary group, and leader of her exercise group at age 100. Isn't that remarkable?
Wrong. You need to learn democrat math. That's actually one more.
It must be terrible going through 100 years of life and being as foolish at the end as you were at the beginning!
Yes, it is.
To paraphrase Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov in his opera Sadko: "I do not marvel at a Democrat woman's reason. Long in the hair and short in the brain."
