I hit harder than that. She told me that she would rather her kids die in a terror attack than having ashcraft waterboard the captured terrorist for the location, antidote etc. Its a constitutional issue for X, even if it brings certain demise to her kids. Of course if it was her who was going to get beheaded she would be begging for ashcraft to arrive.

You didn't ask me if I'd care more about terrorism, Bill You said you wished 9/11 had happened in my backyard. what am I supposed to think when someone posts something like that? But look, you lost your temper, and yeah, I got the feeling you kind of wished me dead. It was understandable for someone who gets emotional. And do I expect you to miss me when I die? Do I expect you to care? The way you treat me when I'm alive? Logically Bill, why would I expect you'd care if I died? Why WOULD you care. The time to treat people well is when they are alive. Please, don't lose the animosity just because I die, if I predecease you. That kind of hypocrisy might cause me to haunt you. I actually saved that one, since it was kind of disturbing- even for you: Message 20859833 "Posts like that make me wish 9/11 had happened on your coast in your backyard instead of in NYC. It might give you a better appreciation of how callous your comment is."
