I think maybe not taking pictures of a man's sick wife because of a political thing would have been a good start.

Unless you have a time machine that wasn't an option. So given he took the pictures, what should he have done?
 
Re: Mississippi Tea Party leader dead in apparent suicide

So, what's the topic? The Cochran photos are a month old, or better.

Not killed himself, gone to the hearing and state his case and if guilty, accept the sentence.

Personal responsibility, isn't that something that the Tea Party is always telling people to do?

He apparently felt his actions deeply enough to end his own life by his own hand. Sounds like he took responsibility for his actions to me.

Geezus I couldn't agree more. He took the ultimate responsibility for his actions.

Honestly, it's the first I heard of the pictures. Mostly I think that was pretty low and dirty.

That's how politics have been for the past 250+ years. Low and dirty.

No, since I was too subtle before, I think that your OP is classless. Also pitiable, but I'm not going to look up "schadenfreude" for you.

it's not about me, but I know you can't think of anything else to say.

It's funny how all you have to say is "Tea Party" and it's a conservative stampede to attack the thread.

You started a thread to take a classes swipe as a guy who committed suicide and now you are butt hurt that people called you on how classless it was.

Are you any better than you think he is?

I haven't taken pictures of the sick wife of a political opponent.

What you have done is you've made disparaging remarks over the corpse of a dead political opponent. So again, are you any better than you think he is?

I didn't make any disparaging remarks about his corpse or his death. I made disparaging remarks about his photography.

So am I any better because I think what he did was wrong? Don't know. Are you any better than you think I am?
