I've got the perfect inscription for his tombstone:
Rest in piss, motherfucker.
And Hell gained another angel.
And the world got a tiny bit less evil.
I'm reminded of an old Clarence Darrow quote....
sad, he died too old
Rest in piss
In case you weren't sure how to feel about reading this obit, here's a handful of this guy's impact on the world...
I could go on, but I'm feeling the sudden urge to go dance in the street.
Update: for further reading, please have a look at the obituary written by Erik Loomis on the Lawyers Guns & Money blog. It's outstanding.
Was he ever accused on sexual harassment or assault? Did any minors accuse him of doing things? His resume sounds like someone who would do this kind of thing.
The more I learn about this guy, the less I care for him.
I am pretty sure my Mom have me a copy of Dare to Discipline when my kids were preschool age. I never actually considered reading it though.
It says if you really loved your kids you should beat them.
Conservatives are far more likely than the baseline population to have been beaten as children. It's a definite risk factor that should be eliminated.
It's a real shame when they go old like that.
Sometimes I honestly wish heaven and hell actually existed and that I could see the look on the faces of people like this when they find out they aren't in the one that they expected.
Oh man, terrible news today! I'm broken up.
I can't find my favourite pen.
Edit: Oh wait, here it is. Silly me. All is well.
Will there be a public coffin defecation ceremony? I'd like to attend please.
They don't make coffins big enough, just throw him in a ditch. You shit, you shovel.
Shame he didn’t die decades ago.
Damn, came to make the same quip.
That's a shame, why not sooner.
Good fucking riddance.
Obligatory:
Only the good die young..
Maybe it is true that that the good die young, but I’m much more certain that pricks live forever
Good.
RIP
Rot in piss
Technically correct, as his grave will also be a public toilet.
Anyway, anybody seen the new Naked Gun movie? I hear it’s pretty good.
I've heard that as well but haven't seen it yet, I opted for nobody 2.
Is the first one any good? I don’t like to jump straight into sequels without the obligatory background from the first ones.
I wish I had citations for this, but I seem to recall reading one of his books about preventing divorce. It could have been another god awful Christian couple book, though. I did read a few of his books.
If a hetero couple is married, and the man wants to leave his wife for another woman, the wife needs to just take it and do nice things for him in order to convince him to stay.
If he is not treating her right, she cannot outright say it. (If she makes him feel bad, it is her fault if he finds someone else!) No, instead she needs to lead him to good examples.
As a wife, a woman must cook delicious food. If she is a bad cook, she is a bad wife.
I don't remember if it was in another book, but if a man disciplines his daughter too harshly, the wife should not stop him. Instead, she needs to talk to the daughter separately, try to make her feel better, and not make the dad look bad. Because if you stand up for your child, you are emasculating him or something. (Enabler much?)
The only positive thing I saw was him seeing bisexuals as distinct from homosexuals. Not that he had anything good to say about either, but... No bi erasure?
This dude really fucked me up as a youth, rest in piss.
Another piece of shit who lasted way too long before being flushed into hell.
Maybe he can influence the rest of them to fuck off somewhere
RIPiss
I hope his passing was painful and slow. Genuinely.
John MacArthur and now Charles Dobson.
But there’s a horde ready to take his place.
Rest in Piss
Wasn’t he supposedly pro-life? Fucking hypocrite.
May he rest in agony.
May his memory and legacy rot as quickly as his corpse.
Interesting day in hell today. So much confusion except for everyone there but him.
