If this doesn't sum up the ROSE COLORED GLASSES phenomena of...THE AMERICA (mostly republican) WAY OF LIFE, NOTHING WILL! Mark Morford, in his scandalously funny, farcical style epitomizes what we have all witnessed in the last 60 years, give or take a year or two. Thank you Mark, for making me realize once again... I AM NOT TOTALLY NUTS, I just am made to believe I am because I THINK! A real handicap in this greedy, glutinous corporate world! http://thinkingblue.blogspot.com

<P><SPAN class=dropcap>T</SPAN><SPAN class=dropcap></SPAN>he late Rev. Jerry 
Falwell? He was exactly like a Hummer H2. Oh yes he was. Bloated, arrogant, 
offensive to millions and deeply wrong in a thousand ways and yet blindly 
worshipped by a shockingly large and happily uninformed throng of devout minions 
for no other reason than he was, well, bloated, arrogant and wrong. 
<P>Is that too harsh? Lacking in prudent subtlety? I'm completely OK with that. 
<P>See, it is time for much rejoicing. It is time for an upraising of hands and 
a hallelujah and a praise be to the heavens despite how, of course, the heavens 
don't really exist. 
<P>No, not for the death of Falwell, for that would be pointless and in poor 
taste and besides, the ever-acerbic Christopher Hitchens did it much better <A

I pointed out last week, Falwell's own <A

worth to humanity than any sort of carefully articulated, cheerful celebration 
of his demise ever could. </P></SPAN></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/74B4E03B-392A-4E46-A27E-4F40CE6BBDC0/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
