I quote, you decide
by JohnHuang2
Seung-Hui Cho. Remember him? Hes the chap who shot up Virginia Tech back in April and left 32 people dead in two separate attacks, then offed himself. Want to know how the libbie wingnuts really felt about the gunman? Nothing more to see here, old news, move on. No hold on. Some quotes:
My heart aches. Of course I mourn the passing of the thirty-two Virginia Polytechnic University students, as do we all throughout the globe. Nevertheless, I cannot forget how my heart hurts for the thirty-third victim, the one the media never seems to count among those killed, (gunman) Seung-Hui Cho . . . Cho longed for comfort and company. All he received is chiding. Even in death, (gunman) Seung-Hui Cho is scorn. I am forlorn. . . Cho lived in shadows, deep and dark. He attended classes at a prestigious University. He was a scholar, a writer. Yet, he was shunned. . . As a child Seung-Hui Cho was ridiculed and bullyed. As an adult he hid; he hoped to avoid the taunts and teasing. . . Cho (the gunman) was a tormented soul . . . long-suffering spirit . . neglected man . . . This is not a time to teach fear. It is an occasion, an opportunity to reflect. Perhaps, we might learn to love every being, even those that appear to be different or distant. Seung-Hui Cho My Sadness for yours.
Thats straight from DailyKos. Not some stray comment on a thread, but THE featured Kos thread itself, titled, Seung-Hui Cho. I Mourn Your Life and Loss, by Kos diarist Bcgntn. This is the same DailyKos that Democrats running for president paid homage to over the weekend at the sites Yearly Kos convention in Chicago.
While were on the subject of caring and compassion, Kos diarist WinSmith, several weeks before the Cho thread, posted a featured Diary subtly titled, Why I Dont Care About Tony Snow, after Snows announcement in March that his cancer was back:
. . . why do I have to pretend Im praying for Tony Snow? . . . Why do I have to pretend I care about Tony Snow? . . . That I send out my thoughts to his family? I dont. I dont care about Tony Snow. At all. . . Hes not in my thoughts. I have no empathy for him.
WinSmith then went on to denounce the other side because of its raging, irrational hatred and because there is no logic in their universe. No empathy. But. WinSmith wants you to know he isnt saying hes glad Snow has cancer. He just doesnt care that Snow has cancer because Snow doesnt agree with WinSmith on foreign policy, taxes, gay rights, gun control, etc.
I never said that Tony Snow should die of cancer, protested DailyKoss Jon Stafford in his featured diary, posted on July 18, 2007. Nor did I say that I wanted him to die of cancer. All he said was that I really didnt care if [Snow] died of cancer. But in his April 9Th Kos diary titled, Tony Snows Illness: A Medical Prospective, this was Jon Staffords medical prospective: My first thought is: F- Tony Snow. As the Bush regimes propaganda minister and apologist he deserves whatever he gets, and worse. In an update, Stafford now admits he forgot he had wished death on Tony Snow. Jon Stafford is a Registered Nurse.
DailyKoss OCdem writes: Why is everyone afraid to say the obvious? Joe (Lieberman) is very religious and arguably cares more about Israel than the US. I think its that simple.
Lieberman is an AIPAC shill, replied Sonoftherepublic. Lieberman formerly [sic] a Democrat and now an Independent representing the state of Israel in the US Senate should be recalled by the voters he is failing to represent . . . the only two Dem candidates not already bought and paid for by AIPAC are Dennis Kucinich and Mike Gravel.
Explaining why liberals loved Saddam so much, Kos poster Scottsdale Jack notes that, To Lieberman and the rest of the Israel lobby, Saddam had to be removed because he dared to launch missiles at Israel during the first Iraq war.
Send (Lieberman) Burgers, matza ball soup, and Camels and maybe hell keel over of heartdisease [sic] before the clock expires, wrote rrheard.
Cheneys a big lizard that wont die, wrote another Koster after crushing news the Taliban failed to whack Dick Cheney in Afghanistan earlier this year. Personally Ive always thought a heart attack would be far too good for this career criminal, thoughtfully replied another Koster.
There was a time when the Democrats press chums reliably could conceal all of this stuff simply by not reporting it, but no more, thanks to Al Gores inventing the blog! Libbies can now let it all hang out, give their candidates a helpful push over the cliff, force them to pander to DailyKos and the rest of the Only-One-Square-Tissue-Per-Restroom-Visit set with promises to make America safe by teaching sex in Kindergarten, bombing allies, planting white flags in Baghdad, making nice with Iran, Syria, Castro, Chavez et al and impeaching or censuring moron Bush for sinking the Maine and staging the Gulf of Tonkin to launch an attack on Saddam! Thats a helluva winning platform.
If youre one of the oppo research boys for, say, Fred Thompson and you want to flush out Hillary down the road when she discovers shes a centrist again, just a click of the mouse and your toughest call to fill the latest 30-second spot is whether to go with Herselfs YouTube Kos convention macaca or her bragging to some other nut blog crowd about her vote to stop the Dictatortot from listening in on phone chats between some al-Qaeda type in Pakistan and some al-Qaeda type in Pakistan without a warrant.
If you want to know why libbie hangouts like DailyKos are adorned copiously with four-letter words and cheer-leading for the Taliban and al-Qaeda, the poor little darlings are just frustrated. Its a force thats defeated. Its a force that is frustrated. Its a force that is acting in cowardice, said Afghans Hamid Karzai about the enemy in his country, which sounds like the enemy in this country. American troop levels in Iraq are higher nine months after Pelosi & co. boasted theyd stop the war, they cant even get a non-binding resolution on Iraq through and Congresss approval rate is 14%, but Democrats are shooting for 3% or less. And blogs are all that libbies have to show for. Poor, poor libbies.
Anyway, that's...
My two cents

Great rant, John! I feel that I need
a shower after reading the screed by the
Kos-ters. They feel sympathy and Kumbahya
for a cold-blooded killer and yet every breath
is full of hate for anyone who doesn't agree with them.

Beautiful Feet
READ:
Romans 10:14-18How shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher? Romans 10:14
Recently, I met the man who introduced me to Jesus 35 years ago. Warren Wiersbe, former pastor of Moody Church in Chicago and Bible teacher for the Back to the Bible ministry, had preached the gospel at a Bible conference in 1972. It was the first time I heard the good news of Gods love for me as shown in Jesus death on the cross. The Spirit opened my eyes and heart that night, and I received Jesus Christ as my Savior (John 1:12).
We praise the Lord for people like Warren Wiersbe who faithfully preach the gospel and introduce others to Christ. According to the apostle Paul, they have beautiful feet: How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the gospel of peace, who bring glad tidings of good things! (Rom. 10:15).
But spreading the gospel isnt just the responsibility of Bible teachers and pastors. All who know Jesus can share on a personal level with friends, co-workers, family members, and strangers. Its our privilege and duty. Otherwise, how will people believe in Him of whom they have not heard? (v.14).
Lets make our feet beautiful by bringing the good news of Jesus to others.
Christ has no hands but our hands to do His work today;
He has no feet but our feet to lead men in His way;
He has no tongue but our tongue to tell men how He died;
He has no help but our help to bring them to His side. Flint
How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him who brings good news! Isaiah 52:7

Great! Caught it just before it went over the edge and into that abyss known as the great beyond in which one has to actually look for older posts. Glad I get up early.

Yayyyyyy! How sweet it is to click on a thread and it opens right up, pictures and all! Connecting under 24,000 bps is NOT fun, as was happening to me the last few weeks, and even then didn't know if I'd be kicked off in the middle of something.
Thanks for another great essay, John, and fun pictures you chose, dutchess! (Thanks, pookie, for providing one-stop shopping each week to illustrate John's words so cleverly!)
