Arguing decency and respect to a loss like Levin is like arguing philosophy with a See-N-Say.

ReplyDeleteWell Connie, he's a piece of something anyhow.
Corey, where Levin's behavior is concerned, whether Weary was a soldier or not isn't the issue. Levin's boorishness to a grieving family is the issue, capisce?
ReplyDeleteBoy are these characters immature halfwits. They behave in ways that the rest of the World rightfully sees as rude and childish.
DeleteKevin has the compassion of a Hockey Puck.
ReplyDeleteLevin sez, "One person in particular compared my posts this week to the actions of the Westboro Baptist Church, which was initially confusing to me since I thought the individual in question was a member."
ReplyDeleteYou know what? I think that's a baldfaced lie. I don't think he was confused; I suspect he was probably infuriated.And I don't believe for a minute he "thought" I was a member of that church. I've never picketed any funerals, I don't believe for a minute that "God hates fags," or anybody else. Levin was just stung by my subject line and trying to get me back. It's been my experience that floggers can dish it out but they sure can't take it.... They're an extraordinarily thin-skinned bunch....

ReplyDelete"Weary Clyburn Didn’t Serve the Confederacy, He Survived It"
The Confederacy looks pretty good compared to the alternatives-
...being used as cannon fodder in the USCT or
...dying of starvation or disease in a Union run Contraband Camp
