Kevin,

I'm with you, it makes me sick, and this nonsense needs to be called out and condemned in no uncertain terms.  It takes a special kind of gall to whine about the thoughtless and inappropriate acts of others when your loved one dies, and then turn around and attack a man and show such a level of vicious callousness toward another person who has just lost a loved one hours ago.

That being said, I'm hoping that you'll sleep on it and reconsider.  Maybe they just have their brains turned off.  That's the best spin I can put on it.  Whatever it is, good people here appreciate your voice on this forum... most notably on more on-topic issues than this sometimes ugly political horserace stuff.
