Death Trifecta

Man, they're dropping like flies.

Johnny Cochran - DEAD
Terri Schiavo - DEAD
Mitch Hedberg - DEAD


I was waiting for Terri to go (I could deliver some DRY humor - yes, I'm a prick - but I'll just send you to her blog instead.), but the other two surprised me. I was never a fan of Johnny "If Chewbacca is from Endor, you must acquit" Cochran (He got O.J. off, he got P. Diddy off, he tried to prosecute comedian Lenny Bruce on obscenity charges and he represented Rosa Parks in the lawsuit launched against OutKast and their label, LaFace Records); he was just another money-grubbing ambulance-chaser, so I'm not going to pretend that I am sorry to see him go. Same for Mitch Hedberg. I never liked his comedy, the one-liners and deadpan schtick is better when it comes from Steven Wright, but Mitch made people laugh, and the world needs a clown.

Now CNN is reporting that the pope-ah has a high fever and is probably going to shuffle off this mortal coil pretty soon. Can't say that I'm upset about that one either. It'd be a double bonus if he and the "honorable" Jerry Falwell died on the same day. Two shit-birds with one stone, you might say. By the way, God... while you're snatching people up, can you PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASEPLEASEPLEASE take Rush Limbaugh? Let him OD on OxyContin or something. Out of all the people on this list, he deserves to go most of all. Fucking sanctimonious prick.

While we're on the subject of death, how long do you think it will be before some loony NeoCon nutjob decides to take out Michael Schaivo? I'm sure he's had quite a few threats against his life already. He should be happy that Eric Rudolph is already locked away.

Isn't it strange that Republicans support you for the 9 months that you're in the womb, the 15 years you spend as a brain-dead Mr. Potato Head, and if you have a terminal ilness, but they don't care about you otherwise? I guess life begins at conception, and ends at 9 months.

Let the hate mail roll in.
