This is despicable: (concerning Andy)
Edited on Fri Jul-08-05 09:49 AM by Jara sang
I found this on a website devoted to "debunking Andy" The site is Scamdy.com. I did't want to link to them, because I find them to be so vile, but here it is anyway: http://www.scamdy.com/ On the forums page under Please Read: or just wishes entertainment or amusement, this sites for you

Tormenting a terminally ill man for their own "entertainment and amusement"? That is the most disgusting thing I have ever read in my life. That encapsulates the Republican ethos perfectly. The "Right" has no values. They revel in death. I'm not even sure if these people are human.

4. I'm not trying to be obtuse, I just don't understand the comment
Maybe it's the way you posted it, but it doesn't make sense in any way. I get the basic gist of it I guess, but I don't understand really.

Please feel free to disregard if this is causing you any more angst than need be. I don't want to be a pain in the ass and apologize if I am doing so.

7. I linked to the site
on the front page of Scamdy.com they state: "or just wishes entertainment or amusement" This is what has me so pissed off.

8. It doesn't seem like that was put there in light of Andy's passing.
I could see you distaste if that was the case, but I mean, we've got something like that for our weekly Top 10 Conservative Idiots.

19. Wow, I am amazed...
the site invites people to come in and get entertainment from belittling a terminally man in the hospital. You are OK with this?

18. No it was put up there, when Andy was in the hospital
Can you not read were it says: "entertainment and amusement"? They were getting satisfaction and entertainment from belittling a terminally ill human being. I really don't understand how you can not see that.

22. The context of it is the issue.
It's talking about how the site is designed to debunk him. I don't think the context of the statement is to say "take entertainment and amusement from his illness", but rather in fighting their political foe.

Unfortunately, Andy was something of a public figure. As much as we here see him as a personal friend, it's not that personal for them and is little more than us taking delight in the plight of Rush Limbaugh. It's horrible, yes, but I don't think it's outrageously unexpected.

16. Culture of 'Christian' life.
I hope those devils are proud of themselves.

And I hope Satan has a special place for them.

21. If you want to honor
Andy wouldn't we just leave the piles of shit alone?

They are Freepers, we know the lifeforms are not much larger then a single cell Amoeba. Their ability to feel empathy is only akin to their own white, straight, republican, religious fanatic.

I can't presume to know what Andy wants, but I would take a guess it, wouldn't be us trying to convince them of anything.
They aren't worth the effort.

24. Quite a few DU Patriots have been fighting that site for WEEKS.
Edited on Fri Jul-08-05 10:38 AM by demodonkey

"Free Speech" doesn't mean free rein to slander, libel, and hurt an honest, innocent person -- especially someone who is dying and needs all his strength to fight cancer.

I have NO DOUBT that the negativity of that site AND OTHERS LIKE IT, contributed to Andy's death.

Positive thoughts have positive effects. Negative thoughts and energy do the opposite. Just remember, Freepers... KARMA IS A BOOMERANG.

25. Not to mention that they intentionally obstructed a terminal cancer
patient's access to mediacl care via fraud and slander....and all because of his politics. IF he had been a republican, they'd be the first ones donating money.


It's called "playing politics." The republicans are always accusing us of doing it.
