  1. Rex Mundane says:

    One speaker — Reverend William Lawson who heads a predominantly African-American church in Houston — compared Lay’s treatment by the media and federal prosecutors to a lynching.

    …WHAT!?!?!?

  2. Jamey says:

    Well if that’s the case, I only wish Lay had been lynched while he was still alive.

  3. SaveFarris says:

    And … one more example of the compassionate Left.

  4. Dugger says:

    Jamey – epitomizing the new Progressive mind set.

    Former Houston Mayor Bob Lanier collapsed Wednesday as he arrived at the funeral of Enron Corp. foun…

  6. White Whale says:

    Farris and Dugger,
    So you guys favor compassion for Lay? I don’t wish death let alone lynching on anyone but I won’t lose sleep knowing this schister can no longer destroy peoples lives. How about you?

  7. Jadegold says:

    In reality, it’s probably a smart financial move for AWOL George.

    Because of Lay’s untimely passing–it will be very difficult to get access to Lay’s ill-gotten wealth. Thus, AWOL George sees the funeral as a fundraiser.

    Is it just me or does that first photo appear arranged to make it look like Bush Sr. is behind bars?

    And you wonder what happened to civilized discourse.

    “And you wonder what happened to civilized discourse.”

    It may have been laid to rest in 2000. Ken Lay had an additional six years.

    And you wonder what happened to civilized discourse.

    I totally agree with Frank.

    Why don t you stop badgering me, frame?
    Uh, Frank? Maybe if you would curb your pathological obsession with this blog, quit your deliberate bear-baiting, your ad homenim attacks, spin, outright lies and just plain bad faith antagonizing of anyone who disagrees with you, most of the people who read this blog wouldn t constantly feel the need to choke the living crap out
    of you and thus post responses that may sometimes hurt your feelings. But mostly, it wouldn t hurt if you would just get away from the computer and take a break from this blog for a few days.
    Christ on a pogo stick, Frank! I have never seen such an obsessed and obsessive blog commenter in all my life. You are EVERYWHERE on this blog, in almost every thread. Day and night. Weekend and weekday. On this thread alone you ve posted 11 messages over the course of 24 hours. What the hell?

    I have a better idea, cleo and frameone: relax. Pestering people is not  calling them on onything. And you may rest assured, Paul, that I am as far from being an idiot as yoy are from being gracious, but there is no doubt in my mind that there is not a single thing to
    be learned from you. What in the world have you taught anyone? You have disagreed with me, called me names, taunted me, badgered me to answer everyone of your nitpicking questions, but
    what have I learned from you? I ve learned a hell of a lot about you  none of it good, but nothing from you.

    p.s. frameone: If that s what the article says, then why are you hounding me about? What do you want from me?

    Cleo: Where is this anti – liberal bile I spout?  If you say it, be prepared to defend it. Is that something like when the guy with the thick black mustache says,  Tell us what we want to know, or you die ? Damn, you guys are intense.

    Matty: I truly appreciate your comments. However, you need to understand that it isn t  most of the people who read this blog.
    It s Paul Malcolm, aka frameone, who is the bane of my existence. There are very few people on this blog who are unaware of that.
    No one on this blog even approaches his relentless harassment, his insulting, uncouth, arrogant and condescending behavior.
    I have asked several people on this blog to search the threads for evidence of one time I ve insulted someone before they insulted me. Not one person has found one example. You don t even know me, and before you could get around to expressing your  concern, you felt compelled to accuse me of  deliberate bear-baiting.. ad homenim attacks, spin, outright lies and just plain bad faith antagonizing of anyone who disagrees with you. You then followed that with the mistaken observation that  most of the people who read this blog & constantly feel the need to choke the living crap out of [me]. Of course, your answer is that I  should take a break from this blog for a few days. I ve taken a break from this blog for a few months in the past, and you know what? It was like I had just returned from the bathroom. Maybe if there was someone on this blog who called themselves liberal, who acted like one, I might believe them. If only&

    factcheck: Do you ever get anything right?
    Your  Lucy from Peanuts psychiatry would have clients asking for their quarter back. I was very clearly making a point that I actually do have other things to do with my life than to humor the madman frameone. There was no hint that I expected someone to  care about my problems. Along with about 5 other people, I am in a nest of liberals. I have long ago  and I mean long ago  seen through the hypocricy of  liberal tolerance , even in its most recent incarnation at the (NYT sponsored) aBuzz, going back to 2001.
    But did you proofread the last paragraph? Were you sleepy? Drugged? Drunk? Remember, the more the baby is ignored, the more he will scream, so resist the urge and maybe he ll learn to be civil. You should have issued a  beverage alert with that sentence!

    Ignoring me will make me more civil? What will make you more civil? {I already know that nothing will make frameone more civil   It ain t in  im , and cleo is just a blowhard, who thinks obscurantism combined with the use of polysyllabic words is a sign of intelligence.

    Bill L. If anything is to be  admired it is your skill at misinterpretation, use of imagination, and, like most liberals, your assumption that you know more about what I mean than you do. (The most ironic 6 words? Sorry to get off topic, but& I could elucidate your errors, Bill, but you seem to be having so much fun, I don t want to spoil it.

     I could elucidate your errors, but& 
    Too funny. I point out that Frank, like many on the Right, takes it as a given that the truth is so fully behind him that he never has to actually support his arguments, and he counters that I m wrong but he doesn t have to prove it. Awesome. But then again, when you have the staggering power of truthiness on your side, the petty opinions of elitist liberals are little more than a  speed bump, eh?
    And on that note, I m done contributing to the  let s make another thread all about Frank syndrome that s becoming a staple around here lately.

    Is anybody else getting sore hands smacking Frank around? He seems to have become the whipping boy in every thread around here these days. Even Dugger, DrPedro, and the rest seem to have disappeared into Frank s shadow.

    I told you. So predictable, but, then, rabid pseudo – intellectuals always are. Yes, frameone, O master of all he surveys! I ll just do exactly what you say& You have never steered me wrong in the past. Our relationship has been based on mutual respect and consideration up until this point, hasn t it? I d be a fool to spoil it now, wouldn t I? How many times a day do people unfortunate enough to be in your vicinity tell you what a jerk you are? Damn, Paul, you really have more balls than brains. You re a pompous, ill – mannered gasbag, and you have the nerve, the unmitigated gall, to demand anything from me? As if anything I, a dimwit, a royal idiot (BTW, thanks for the  royal ), a moron, could ever meet the incredibly high standards of the Perfect Frameone (hallowed be his name!) One last question: Who licks the soles of your shoes dry when you walk on water?

    Still haven t answered the question, eh, Tom? I ll ask anybody, and everybody, then: What does McVeigh have to do with conservative politics? Follow up question: Is he connected to conservative politics the way L.H. Oswald was connected to liberal politics? Put your hand down, Tom, I want someone else to answer&

    I must have missed the post where you were givven the exclusive right to tell evveryone else when, where and how they can comment on Oliver Willis blog. It must have been the same post where it was explained how Frank can pull wild-ass incoherent BS out of his pie hole and use his distortions to define what his idealogical opponents mindset is.

    Nice research, Roni…

    You give new meaning to the word troll, as in pathological stalking troll… Welcome to the record books, puppy!

  13. JWG says:

    Um, Ken Lay was actually friends with Bush 41 more than he was friends with Bush 43. Of course, Oliver already knew that because I’ve linked to the news reports in previous threads.

    And you wonder what happened to civilized discourse.

    Are you a stand up comedian in your spare time? It is hilarious to read “And you wonder what happened to civilized discourse.” knowing the kind of foul mouthed, know-it-all son of a bitch you are. :-)

    Lay’s memorial attracts power elite – Jul. 12, 2006

    More from the esteemed Rev William Lawson.

    The Reverend Dr. Bill Lawson compared Lay with civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. and Jesus Christ, and said his name would eventually be cleared. “He was taken out of the world right at the right time,” he said. “History has a way of vindicating people who have been wronged.”
    “Ken Lay was neither black nor poor, but I’m angry because Ken Lay was a victim of a lynching.”
    “The folks who don’t like him have had their say. I’d like to have mine … (Like Jesus Christ) he was crucified by a government that mistreated him.”

    The sheer weight of the devotion to a man who was basically responsible for ruining countless lives, and the need to paint him as some sort of martyr to no cause whatsoever is enough to crush a damn greyhound bus.

    Love it, Roni! Keep showing, instance by instance, that the only thing holding the conservative movement together is its pathologically violent hatred of liberals!

    TomY congratulates Roni.

    I don’t believe it!

    I. Don’t. Believe. It.

  19. Roni says:

    Frank, be careful you don’t fall off the homemade pedestal. It’s a long fall.

  20. Roni says:

    Thanks, TomY. Interesting view from Frank’s pedestal, yes?
