Don't Dis the Dead

Remember that sad, sad time when Ronald Reagan passed away? I do. I also remember members of the ultra-left bashing the deceased President as others were mourning. It was a heartless, disrespectful, arrogant showing of political bullshit (pardon the French).

Today marked the passing of Senator Ted Kennedy (D-MA). Some absolutely loved his views; others shuddered in disgust at them. Nevertheless, he was the epitome of a public servant, working across the isle, treating his fellow legislators with common courtesy and decency, regardless of party.

But there are those who consider themselves "conservatives" who decided that the death of a 47-year U.S. Senator was an appropriate time to bash his policies. I even read passages on Facebook predicting his presence in Hell.

This message is directed at the aforementioned individuals...

STOP.
NOW.
YOUR ACTIONS ARE DISRESPECTFUL, DISGUSTING, ARROGANT, AND BLATANTLY UN-AMERICAN.
YOU ARE MAKING ALL REPUBLICANS LOOK BAD.

Today is a day for mourning, not for politicking.
