Wow,I have never seen a thread with so many comments removed. Are they all trolls or did a lot of Freepers get suspended today?
“...Trolls...etc”
No, I don’t think so...people have a lot of anger built up and just vent. Maybe more tact could be used, maybe some of them trolls for sure, but I think most of us folk out here share one overriding quality - love of our country, our heritage, culture, and people.
This is a guy who has devoted his life in office and used (or misused) his position of authority (authority that God placed on him, no less) to undermine all those qualities I stated above. Actively, and with malicious intent it seems, or maybe he honestly believed he was doing the right thing (benefit of the doubt).
I don’t know how to read his heart, no one does, except by his own actions and by the company he chooses to keep. He keeps company with people I consider enemies of all I love, and by their actions directly endanger my country’s, my neighborhood’s, my family’s, and my OWN life. People who would order my death, your death, in a heartbeat if they thought they could get away with it to further their agenda.
Harsh? I think not...realistic is more like it.
That anger is directed his way is understandable; but hatred and vitriol when the man is dying is, well, tacky and unbecoming of gentlemen (and ladies) that we ourselves should try to be. We’re bigger than that.
Wish him well, have a shot of whiskey, say a prayer for him and pray for someone wiser to replace him. That’s about all we need do.
We’ll ALL be there someday, and we’ll ALL need someone to pray over us as well. Not one of us is righteous; not a one.
God will take care of the rest of it. Pretty much the way it’s always been.
