Distraught over the re-election of President George W. Bush, a Georgia man traveled to New York City, went to Ground Zero and killed himself with a shotgun blast, police said yesterday.

The suicide victim, Andrew Veal, 25, was discovered just before 8 a.m. yesterday when a worker for the Millennium Hotel looking at Ground Zero from an upper floor saw a man lying atop the concrete structure through which the 1 and 9 subway lines run.

If only all the other haters and terrorists would take a hint from this guy and only harm themselves on the way out, this world would be a better place.

Well it's a start. One less psychoemotive liberal is one less problem. But I'm afraid that in order to to really get a trend started amongst the RAT cult rank-n-file, a high vis lib like Mikie Moore, Mo Dowd, Walt Cronkite, or Howard Dean will need to off themselves in protest to the Bush victory. A suicide by one of the little people is merely statistical noise.

Wait for it... there will be more and greater stupidity.
i.e. Hillary '08.

"Well, one less vote for Democrats in 2008."

No, it isn't. Now he'll be voting Dem several times every year for sure.

Suicide is such an ugly, Politically Incorrect word.
It is also *loaded* with negative connotations.

We could, however, couch this event in words that the left would approve of as follows:

"25 year old UGA employee performs successful auto postpartum abortion."

Now isn't that a smarter, more nuanced headline mes amis?

More than three years after the Sept. 11 terror attacks, Ground Zero remains a top tourist attraction, the site rife with symbolism.

Symbolism indeed. This suicide is symbolic of so many in the country who just may not get it. (and this guy working on a Socialist factory......a college campus)

The unprecedented campaign of scare-mongering and HATE by the left drove him to this. He really believed their lies and thought the world was coming to an end. The left should feel this is on their hands

HIS BLOOD IS ON THIER HANDS!

He must have lived in Jihad McKinney's district. That was one of few races that went badly.

But to kill yourself over an election is silly.

Odds are this guy was a prescription anti-depressant/anxiety drug user.

The left should feel this is on their hands.....This is blood on the hands of Michael Moore, the Democratic party, and all those who fostered the hatred of the President........Thats exactly where I place the blame.

The blame is on the guy who pulled the trigger. Take it from someone who has had two family members kill themselves.

This guy did it to himself. Anybody who is not smart enough to see through the BULL of Micheal Moore, etc. deserves a bullet in their head, as long as they do it themselves.

"This is blood on the hands of Michael Moore, the Democratic party, and all those who fostered the hatred of the President."

Nonsense. People who are suicidal regardless of what others do always find excuses to end their lives. Intelligent people on FR should realize this.

Maybe the twisted leftists over at DU will do us all a favor and follow his lead.
