You said about the dems: They prove their colors. They are vile, hate-filled people.

----------------------------------------------------

It seems that it takes one to know one. If only such matters were that simple.

Certainly any *individual* who would say such a thing is vile, but to then cast such aspersions on a huge portion of the population whose political point of view matches hers is short sighted, to say the least. I have friends who are moderate liberals, and they would be just as appalled at such a suggestion as you are. Hatefulness has no political affiliation.

From another perspective, I imagine that this person likely didn't really mean to wish Mrs. Cheney ill and was just venting emotions due to disappointment at the outcome of the election.

As someone I respect says, all generalizations are false.

"As someone I respect says, all generalizations are false."

Being as that itself is a generalization....

Context is everything. If you read the post, you can see I am talking about those who wanted Elizabeth Edwards' cancer to happen to Laura Bush. I can clearly state that anyone wishing any such thing is vile and hate filled.

Next time I want someone to wag their self-rightous, self-important, smug, arrogant finger at me, I'll go find a Liberal (although it looks like I have).
