Maybe we should toast to his demise on Saturday???  Mattlock...you didn't have to register!  I saw the same thing and then scrolled upward and it allowed to go into the site and bypass that registration...sorry!  I was on my way to having lunch with Dusty and found that the jury had come in for Brothers...and while we were on our way she told me about Falwell.  Somehow I had a lighter feeling in my step and in my black heart at the news.  He may think he was a holy man...but in my book...he helped ruin the lives of millions of people and bring a nation nearly to its knees.  He can kiss my posterior for the rest of time...self-righteous fool.

Oh...and on topic...to my dismay...I was 1st Hills and then a fast 2nd with Kucinich.  That knocked me over...ewww.

Toast!

Hardliner and Random, I don't have any Dom, but how about a glass of Campari?

Everyone clustered in the 60s for me as well.  I'm supporting Edwards, just because I prefer the way he seems to come to his ideas and where his focus is.  I don't agree with some of his positions, but he's right on on trade, economics etc, which is where the unglamorous choices are made.

Nobody was a really good match for me, but it put me with Kucinich 65%.

mine too...though I like Obama more

Back to the topics of this blog, Joe Biden came out on top for me (I'll have to look him up cuz I've paid no attention to him).  Hilary came up higher than I would like, but Edwards was in the ballpark and he's my choice so far.

Duncan Hunter on both, who the hell is that?

posted by sfinboston52 on May 15, 2007 at 11:04 AM

Found this info.

 

In 1976 he, along with Anita Bryant, led the charge against gay adoption in Florida leading to the most repressive anti-gay adoption law in the US.  

Following the terrorist attacks in New York and Washington in 2001 Falwell declared that gays and pro choice advocates were to blame.

Speaking on the 700 Club religious program Falwell said, "The abortionists have got to bear some burden for this because God will not be mocked. And when we destroy 40 million little innocent babies, we make God mad. I really believe that the pagans, and the abortionists, and the feminists, and the gays and the lesbians who are actively trying to make that an alternative lifestyle, the ACLU, People For the American Way, all of them who have tried to secularize America. I point the finger in their face and say 'you helped this happen'."

In 2003 Falwell announced that he was putting aside everything to devote his time to passage of a federal constitutional ban on gay marriage.

"I am dedicating my talents, time and energies over the next few years to the passage of an amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which will protect the traditional family from its enemies who wish to legalize same-sex marriage and other diverse "family" forms," Falwell said.

In the 2004 election campaign he worked with Republicans to use same-sex marriage as a wedge issue. 

A week after the November election he announced he was organizing battle plans for what he called an "evangelical revolution." Falwell said that the election showed that Americans want to return to "traditional values". 

He promised to roll back gay rights laws in communities across the country.

already hit the gay press www.365gay.com

Parties planned in SF, Weho, NY, Boston, Key West and other locations!!

Falwell? Just one more threat to America removed, he sold America Ronald Reagan and it has never survived.

Karma trumps dogma every time.
posted by sfinboston52 on May 15, 2007 at 10:55 AM

my list is short also, but he was on it since the early 80s. I had wished that he would have had a stroke and just be a blathering idiot for years on end, but his death is still good news.  Now for Pat Roberston and James Dobson to bte the bullet preferably w/ lots of pain and suffering.

While I dont like dumbya, he hasnt made my list yet. Though w/ the opening Karl Rove just might make the list.

I know I am going to have to pay karma big time on this, but well worth it.

Sadly, if he died, he died still in the grip of his delusions. 

.

I don't plan obituary parties, generally, but I have a short list of people I plan to have predecease me...

posted by Hardliner4freedom on May 15, 2007 at 10:44 AM

I have a really short list of obituary parties planned.  Those three are on them.

Hey, they intend to do harm to me and my way of life.  As I would rejoice in Bin Laden's death, I would rejoice in theirs.

posted by mattloch on May 15, 2007 at 10:43 AM
Word on the streets is Fallwell is toast. Somebody please do a thread on this so we can hammer him without being accused of going off-topic.
posted by randomfactor on May 15, 2007 at 10:42 AM
And tax-exempt as well, H4F.  I'm saving my champagne for Gonzales, but I'd raise a glass to Falwell's new high-temperature pulpit should he pass.
posted by robbwillis on May 15, 2007 at 10:38 AM
Very interesting! I came out for John Edwards, which I never would have guessed. Tommy Thompson on the bottom is comforting, though.
posted by Hardliner4freedom on May 15, 2007 at 10:34 AM

It takes a really uncommon person to make me feel that way, but a Falwell/Robertson/Dobson trifecta would be worth a Cuvee Dom Perignon.

Hey, they hate me and intend to do harm to me and my way of life.  People who want to use the State to commit acts of political aggression against fellow Americans deserve no sympathy.  That makes them little different from Al Qaeda.  Only their tactics are more orderly.

Saw that about jerry falwell, will have to open a nice bottle of wine tonight if he dies! Hopefully it will be in 3s...so next Pat Robertson, James Dobson.
posted by sfinboston52 on May 15, 2007 at 10:22 AM

Shows that I am a hard core liberal, which I already knew.

posted by randomfactor on May 15, 2007 at 10:21 AM
OT, but Jerry Falwell's in the hospital and "gravely serious."  Must be the gay sex.
posted by sagefever on May 15, 2007 at 10:17 AM
Kucinich~both poles,consistant at least and I did not have to give any info for results at either link..but pop up warning!!
posted by randomfactor on May 15, 2007 at 10:09 AM
Same here, as it matched me with Kucinich.  At least it got the antipodes right, though.
posted by mattloch on May 15, 2007 at 10:03 AM
I call "shenanigans" on the speakout poll.... no Gravel. As for your second quiz, please don't post links that require email addresses and personal information for results.
