Sorry for this knee jerk reaction--wish the NYT would write such a moving tribute about each of our fallen servicemembers. Or ANY of them. But I guess writing about human heroes is beneath them.
IT'S A HORSE!!!!
Grive aborted babies.
PLEASE!!!
Thought you might want to see this. Can't join in on the other threads. Too angry over some of the posters who are unreasonable in their tunnel vision.
I lost my best equine friend 4 years ago after surgery that removed 25 ft of small intestine. It nearly broke the bank and he fought a hard fight but it wasn't to be. He was my best friend and some of my happiest times were spent in his stall hanging out the back door watching the sun set.
These are wonderful and noble animals.
Last evening on the local news I heard the sportscaster talking about the death of this horse. Immediately following he said, "we also lost so and so today"...(I can't remember his name)
He was talking about a human!
I like horses, but the excessive whining over this animals death is getting completely rediculous.
That doesn't mean that we should be cruel to animals or that God doesn't care for all of his creation. Whether it's Barbaro the Horse or Sam the Roach, God cares for his creation more that we possibly and can He knows what's best for all His creatures.
But it's abominable for the New York Times and other abortion promoters not to show the same compassion for the agony of aborted babies as they do for this deceased celebrity/horse.
This is almost as beautiful as the heart-wrenching eulogy that the NYT wrote for Terri Schiavo when she had to be "put down." Not.
