The headline is Bernie’s but the sentiment, covert as I’m sure it is, must resonate with millions.
“I certainly would have personally thanked George Zimmerman for saving me and my wife decades of personal anguish and pain this evil child would have inflicted on us…My no-good son Trayvon dead? Thank you, Lord!”
Afterall, who wants a thug for a son? Not even Wormtongue I’d bet.
As for the much to-do about not very much, as Instapundit says: “This was never about Zimmerman or Martin. It was about firing up Obama’s black vote, and keeping his guilty-white-liberal supporters from abandoning him over his many broken campaign promises…Our political class has no sense of responsibility or shame.”
UPDATE: Speaking out the right side of his mouth, Wormtongue said publicly that we are nation of laws and the jury has spoken. Then, out the left side (his usual side), he whispered to his disgraced attorney general to have the feds get Zimmerman on a civil rights conviction. The show trial must go on until the polls close in 2014.
















Hm… not sure many parents go with this sentiment, not matter how inhuman their children’s offenses are. Most will defend their progeny blindly. See the mom of Boston bombers as a shining example.
Au contraire, the Boston bomber mom shares their fanatic religion, so she has a reason to back them beyond being their mother.
I’m sure some would defend their progeny blindly but I know others who would not and I certainly would not. I’d be sorry he turned out so bad, but glad that he would no longer have a chance to hurt other people—including me.
I see Springsteen, et al, dedicating songs to the young thug. I imagine they’re just trying to profit from the event. Or maybe they’re really immoral. I never had any use for Springsteen.
