DFL PARTY TRIES TO SAVE FACE IN THE WAKE OF THE WELLSTONE MEMORIAL (A.K.A. POLITICAL RALLY)

DFL E-Mail ^ | 11/21/02 | Mike Erlandson, DFL Chairman

One event the DFL Party did not plan or participate in was the public memorial service.

I believe that. It came out of Hollywood or somewhere, not Minneapolis. Except maybe that first 60's-ish folk act, perhaps a bone the DNC threw to the locals.

I see. So this event simply happened all by itself, spontaneously.

The mail must travel slowly in Minnesota...
Hey....DFL'rs....BILL CLINTON IS NO LONGER PRESIDENT !
AL GORE IS NO LONGER VICE-PRESIDENT !

This public service announcement brought to you by a Freeper

... To the later point, I will simply say that a political party has no right to instruct someone in how to mourn the loss of a friend ...

But this is exactly and precisely the point, you DFL mook. Booing people who came only to pay their respects to the dead is not mourning. Partisan tirades are not mourning. Political advertising is not mourning.

Sure. Right. Okay, then who or what organization planned it? The DFL did not participate either? Uh huh.

The irony is Mondale could have probably won had they restrained themselves. But they were so desperate for power that even desecrating a funeral seemed like the thing to do since they figured no one would get outraged enough to stop them. Sure enough it backfired on them and they have no one to blame for the election of Norman Coleman but themselves.

The fact that this man had to write this says it all.

Do I feel sorry for him?

Naaaaaa.

The DNC took over, and kicked the locals out.

(BTW, the line "There are people who shape our lives" bothers me immensely.

These aren't supposed to be the people that are shaping our lives.

It always amazes me just how much the left just doesn't get it.)

[Mr. Lucky]

Mook?

[Asclepius]

Mook?

Mook: an insignificant or contemptible person. (dictonary.com)

[Mr. Lucky]

The erudition of Freepers never ceases to amaze me.

I for one am so glad that memorial service took place. The Democraps were seen for what they really are. Clinton and the hated above all things, Hillary, Mondale and his wife shown laughing for the whole world to see was the best thing that ever happened. This is one time Clinton should have bit his lower lip and cried instead of laughing. Anyway, what the devil meant for evil, God turned into good. Now we are in charge!!!!

Looks like the curly headed kid is going to get all the credit. Awsome dump job. WIN! WIN! WIN!

President Bill Clinton and Vice-President Al Gore

I had the weirdest dream that George W Bush won the Presidency two years ago. It seemed so real, oh well.....Oh yes, the other point was that I guess the Republicans planned the rally, excuse me, memorial service since the dimocRats are disavowing it.

Hey....DFL'rs....BILL CLINTON IS NO LONGER PRESIDENT ! AL GORE IS NO LONGER VICE-PRESIDENT !

Thank you, I thought I was slipping. lol

The "Hooray, Wellstone's Dead" party was great. Fritz and Willie had a blast and I think Willie boinked Fritz's daughter, Eleanor, again. The joy over Paul's passing was universal and easily shifted the event to a rally. There could have been more booze and naked ladies in the main hall, although, there sure was plenty of both at the break out celebrations. The dems really know how to celebrate a tragedy and the remaining Wellstone kids sure are fun when they get a snoot-full.

We ceratinly hope that all the Republican negativity won't cut back on the plans for next year's "Paul Is Dead Festival." It is going to be another BLAST!! Pelosi, now the LIC (leftist in charge) has reason to celebrate Paul's passing and has agreed to be Grand Marshall of the parade, although, whether she rides in the convertable topless depends a lot on the November weather. It will all be in the usual good taste, however, and should be a lot of fun.

As a sailor, DFL has a special meaning in sailboat racing. A little history though, i.e DSQ means disqualified, DNF means Did Not Finish, etc. DFL is unofficial but means Dead F***ing Last. Looks like DFL could also apply to the Minnesota DFL party.

I think Willie boinked Fritz's daughter, Eleanor, again.

You could be right my friend.

Eight people died in the crash, but the rally was meant to honor only the six who were known to be Democrats. The other two don't count.
