Jeez, some people on FR are as CRAZY as the people on DU and the KOS!! When WFB died people here - at FR - were saying that DU and KOS were happy that he died.

Paul Newman died and I said that I'll miss him - I've met him and I worked at his Hole In the Wall Camp - and some people are happy he died. :-(

Paul, as much of a LIBERAL he was, was a great liberal. He donated $$ to children's causes.

I agree, when freepers are glad others died it sickens me, in my opinion they are like the ones they hate, no different (and there is way too much rejoicing here when others die).

I’m sorry you’ve run into hate regarding Mr. Newman. I was brought up to speak well of the dead no matter what disagreements we may have had in life. God Speed to Mr. Newman and grace to his family during their time of grief.

hey maine conservative....i am a former mainer. i miss the beauty but not the lack of jobs and influx of outsiders and flatlanders.

anyway i am sad for his family and the loss of a talented and caring person, liberal or not. i am always saddened when a person goes home to meet his maker and things might not turn out well if he doesn’t know the “maker”. such a long time to be in one place if it isn’t a good place.

My FL brother-in-law remembers growing up going to school with Paul Newman. BIL comes from the CT shore line area.

I have seen a large array of “Newman’s Own” products, including dressing.

I can’t speak for what you saw, but I didn’t see anybody on this forum speaking ill of Paul Newman. On the contrary, he was praised time and time again, in spite of his politics.

If I recall properly, he served on the board of Planned Parenthood
for years.

I believe one was able to find that on Google in the recent past
but not since his passing.

I avoided his products for years because of his affiliation with
the death purveyors, even though I admired his talent.

The dreaded “some people” struck twice, unless it was manufactured for some purpose. Who are these who are glad That Mr. Newsman is dead. Did they say it in a bar, or was it in a church, or could it have been in an institution?
