On Dec 16, 2011, at 2:38 PM, // ravi wrote: > Would you be pissed at people gleeful about a hypothetical Dick Cheney mortal illness? If so, is it a matter of drawing a line within the Right where such glee turns wrong? Or like Wojtek are you bound by niceties and stylistic concerns related to [all of] the dead? Hitchens once said, dismissing the facile equivalence of Stalin and Hitler, that with Stalin there was the feeling that he was betraying something. I feel the same way about the post-9 ...

I wasn't anywhere near as close to him as you were, but I always liked him. He gave me a great blurb when I started LBO ("a charm against the priests & warlocks of pseudo-science"), and was always friendly when I saw him. His turn to the right made me really sad - and the glee that some people seemed to take in his mortal illness pi ...
