Should We THANK This Larry Northern Asshole?
Edited on Tue Aug-16-05 03:11 PM by Beetwasher
It seems his hateful actions really illustrated what these sick fucks are all about AND he catapulted the Sheehan story to another level.

I'd like to send him my heart felt thanks! His hate filled life is going to be MISERABLE with his mugshot plastered all over the media branding him as a cross desecrator AND he just brought a whole new level of attention to his and the rightwing's hatefilled agenda AND brought more attention to Cindy's message and powerful, courageous cause!!!

Ha Ha! Thanks dumbass!

4. Yeah, Wouldn't Surprise Me If
We start hearing about how it was probably staged...This was probably the dumbest thing anyone could do, for several different reasons...

2. The only thing I can say about them is
I see them as childish, uncaring people with ice water running through their veins.

3. I think he hurt the RW with his mowing down
of Christian crosses with fallen troops names on it and American flags. Show how low they are.

5. NO, let him move on with his life
and keep the focus back on the questions to which Cindy seeks answers. This alone has the possible power to make or break the political stranglehold on our country.

6. No Way, This Guy and His Hate SHOULD Be The Poster Child For
Bush supporters from here on out. We need to weld this guy and his hate to Bush. Fuck that let him move on bullshit. Bush OWNS this guy. This is his base, his supporters HIS people.

7. Fine. But expend your energies are doing something postive for the cause
And leave the personal harrassment to the freeptards. The way they attacked Andy was despicable, we are better than that.

8. Heh? Personal Harrassment? Who Said Anything About Personal Harassment?
Edited on Tue Aug-16-05 03:29 PM by Beetwasher
Where did you get that from?

Making this guy the poster child for rightwing doesn't mean harassin him. It means publicizing what he did and wedding it to Bush and ALL supporters. Let him move on? Fuck that, what he did should never be forgotten...

18. Ok, thanks for clarifying.
I didn't say, move on. I think it's fine if he's made the poster child of a Bush supporter: A vengeful, agressive, violent, "I don't care" person.

Someone else said, somewhere, something about sending him letters. That's the type of thing we don't want to do. IMO!

21. Well, That WILL Happen Anyway
But I don't endorse it, though I will say if anyone's earned some nasty letters, this guy did and I certainly won't feel sorry for him because he's getting some. But they won't be from me.

24. we're not advocating personal attacks
we just want to show all those Republicans who smugly speak of Christian values...family values...fiscal responsibility, etc...that Larry exists. And he's theirs.
The ugly stepson of intolerance and Bush's braying false machismo.
They can ignore Larry at their own risk.

10. And I disagree with the concept of "using" Northern as a poster boy
Edited on Tue Aug-16-05 03:36 PM by Whoa_Nelly
What Cindy and her stand is all about is not hate, it's answers. To glorify Northern in any type of media smear only obfuscates the issue at hand: Cindy's right to answers from the CIC who was (s)elected to serve America's people.

Northern will be vilified and hoisted by his own petard through the action he took last night. And, if he were to be taken on as a means to justify the end, then, in my opinion, this is a digression from the peace and intent of Cindy's vigil.

12. Uhh, Who Said GLORIFY Him
Umm, it's quite the opposite actually...It does nothing to take away from Cindy's message to make this guy the poster child for Bush supporters. I'm not recommending Cindy take up the task, let her concentrate on her message, and let others do elevate this Northern asshole to be the icon for everything Bush and HIS supporters stand for.

Some people can walk and chew gum at the same time.

17. Disagree. Republicans can no longer
hide their true face. It's Larry. It's racist. It's sexist. It's mean and ugly and destructive.
They're not the well-mannered, soft speaking WASPs sitting in leather chairs at "the club".
Republicans are Larry. Full of rage and violent.
When the "moderate" Republicans vote for Bush because of "taxes" and ignore the invasion of Iraq, women's rights, civil rights, the environment, the deficit, healthcare, and education, they're selling their souls. They can't get away with this any longer.
Larry is the core of the Republican base. To act otherwise is to ignore the ugly truth.

Ivy leaguers also tend to be Democrats. ;)

16. Absolutely. Larry is Newt's love child
He's the legacy of the Contract on America. Bush has emboldened the Larrys of the world. They feel like they have a "mandate" to act like this. Hate-radio has given Larry his mission in life. And Dubya has shown Larry that acting all macho and driving your pickup is the new conservative cool.
Forget those dried up old gentlemanly guys like McCain and Hagel.
Get in your truck and drive over some crosses.
Show that woman who's boss.
From your truck.

9. I want Larry as the new face of the Republican Party
seriously. He's 59 years old. He's white. He's a coward who used his truck to desecrate crosses honoring slain servicemen/women. (heaven forbid he get out of the truck and actually do some physical labor).
He's Rush. Hannity. O'Reilly. And all the other chickenhawk blowhards wrapped up in one good ole boy redneck Larry.
Make him the poster boy for the recruiting posters.
Then let your "moderate" friends try to tell you the Republicans stand for "fiscal responsibility". And not hate, viciousness, and blind rage nationalism.

15. Hatefilled People Never Learn, They Just Stew in Their Hate
The truth is, this guy really is the embodiment of the Republican party these days. He's their perfect symbol of everything they stand for.

25. I Helped.........

I put his picture on the front page of oreilly-sucks.com, so I am helping him to get famous, lol.

I think he should be given 500 lashes in the public square, one for every cross he ran down.
