Jerry Falwell died yesterday. And it's in truly bad taste to rejoice in the demise of a fellow human being, even if he was a putrid, intolerant force of evil in the world. So I'll let Seth McFarlane and the "Family Guy" folks do my dirty work. Also, these comments on Gawker are pretty damned funny.
Even better: Christopher Hitchens' touching eulogy on CNN last night.
Money Quote:
He woke up every morning pinching his chubby little flanks and thinking "I've got away with it again." I think he was a conscious charleton, and bully and fraud. If he read the bible at all -- and I doubt he could read any long book at all -- that he did so in only the most hucksterish, as we say, bible-pounding way.
