Paul Weyrich

Born in 42, in his 20's in the sixties:

- Was a Young Republican
- NEVER served in the military

Just another chickenhawk christian conservative who thought the contitution was a weapon and who never did anything for our country.

2. I wish I could believe in Kharma

My Mother suffered "big time" for the year before she died and there was not a kinder more gentle soul on this planet. She died from Ovarian Cancer.

never mind . . .

"Grover Norquist of Americans for Tax Reform wrote this tribute: "Paul Weyrich created institutions and networks that incubated new and old powerful policies and strategies to advance liberty. ... He brought leaders of various freedom impulses together. Most of the successes of the Conservative movement since the 1970s flowed from structures, organizations, and coalitions he started, created or nurtured. Paul also lived a balanced life with work, family and his faith. We will miss his puns and wisdom and hard work."

can we now drown grover in a bathtub? ple-e-e-ase?

6. trof

Born in 41, in his 20s in the sixties.
-Was apolitical
-Served in the military

Just another warmongering (;-))atheist who didn't think a whole lot about the constitution until Nixon was president, and then realized how it had been trashed and prostituted, and now does what he can to make it relevant again.
