You are quite perceptive.

[Clara Lou]

Rosie is a bitter bull-dyke.

"Rosie O'Donnell: "What warrants 27 helicopters and 1,000 people looking? I just don't understand."

I'm sure she would understand if she was the one missing. How would it feel to be lost, cold, hungry, and know that no one is going to look for me because it costs too much? I would like "the rotund one" to look into the faces of the families of those missing and ask her moronic questions.

[zendari]

Heartless? Perhaps.

We all put some price on human life. If you support everyone having infinite access to the treasury every time there's a problem the country will go bankrupt in a week.

I'm surprised Rosie's bleeding heart liberal crowd will buy this though; they don't think rationally.

[Ciexyz]

I'm of two minds about this. Yes, a reasonable amount of funds should be expended in rescue efforts. But is there a point where one must say, we've made every reasonable effort to locate these people, and we've already found one dead.

After all, if someone's heart stops, the paramedics make a reasonable effort to continue CPR to try and bring you back. But at a certain point they stop and say, we've done what we can, now we must declare the patient legally dead.

Rosie, if you were the one missing, no money would be wasted on a search.

[Dr. Bogus Pachysandra]

Very sad thing, these lost climbers. But, that said, I think there should be a very stringent program of permits, a required call in at the start of a climb to get clearance from a pro Ranger Cell phone or radio communications, etc. Require climbers to call in for weather updates at regular intervals. The Rangers should be able to contact the climbing party to issue warnings, and demands to get off the mountain, and so forth. Losing climbers should be very rare. That said, some people are inveterate thrill-seekers and chance-takers. I just hate to see this sort of thing happen!

Perhaps they died knowing they won a Darwin Award.

"What warrants 27 helicopters and 1,000 people looking? I just don't understand."

Ms. O'Donnell would never go out of here way to help any one of us; however, if you or I pulled her cellulite-scaped carcass out of a flaming deli or ice cream shoppe, I wouldn't expect her to say thanks.

[kinoxi]

Re post #64- please stop.

[proudofthesouth]

Why anyone gives Rosie ANY air time or pays attention to what she has to say is beyond me.

Her ego is bigger than her body and just as uncontrollable.

[LilyBean]

I see, on top of everything else, the pig can't count either. It was 2 Black Hawks and a Chinook. I'm pretty sure that doesn't add up to 27. And there was hardly 1000 people looking for them. What a useless waste of air that scumbag is.

[Spok]

I have no problem making people pay after the fact, but as a volunteer firefightet/EMT, I don't think assistance should be withheld from anyone for any reason.

[derllak]

I was angry at first too. Why didn't they take a tracking device? Why did they go at a time when the weather could turn ugly on a dime? They made mistakes, but they're human beings. It's such an insult to even bring money into the equation. If nothing else, I hope it serves as a lesson to all other climbers not to be so haughty that they can fool with mother nature like that. But they are still human lives and there should be a rescue attempt to save them, no matter what the cost.

Sometimes I wonder what happened to the brains God gave them. We just got home Monday night from a long weekend in the Smokies so I do not know too much about what is going on. We had the tv on but it was about what was going on in the Gatlinburg area and some of the things they make up there.

Good question for the embryonic stem cell lobby.

[sappy]

how tolerant and diverse of her.
