I Really Wish Paul Newman Could Have Seen the Results of this Election |

he truly was a good man... if there be a heaven, I hope he looks down and smiles. He deserves it. GOBAMA!

5. It's true that all of them wanted to see this mess come to a conclusion. |
|
However, ALL activists get tired, and are ready to hand it on to the next generation.
Given where their lives were/have been, I"m sure they had other concerns on their minds. Like family and good friends.
All these named in this thread have been patriots, and have done their duty..... above and beyond. :patriot:

7. If only he hadn't eaten the 50 eggs.... |
|
I think he'd still be with us.
Just kidding, of course.
When I was a college boy (Late 60's - early 70's).... that was the time of "Cool Guy" movie actors. Clint Eastwood, Steve McQueen, Paul Newman..... he was always my guy..... and in his honor I'd like to say to John McCain...
"I've got one question for you. How are you going to get down that hill?"

8. Yeah, him and all the others ya'll have named - but for me, my parents and my older |
|
brother - all gone. And my dad was a pol. sci. professor (retired), and my mother was a big Obama supporter (she passed away in May 2007, so she didn't even get to see him get the nomination). Sigh... I wish they could've all seen this, and as you say, Kurt Vonnegut, Paul Newman, Tim Russert... how about Mark Twain?? - I guarantee you he would've been a Bush-hater - they probably would've put him in Guantanamo - so it's probably just as well he lived quite a ways back. :^)
