Kneecapping Barack Obama at every opportunity.
The Democratic Underground On Michael Kelly's Death
by John Hawkins

Tragically, Michael Kelly was killed in a humvee accident while traveling with the 3rd Infantry Division in Iraq. Kelly was the editor-at-large for the Atlantic Monthly, an excellent writer, and I have particular soft spot for him because he actually gave a passing mention to RWN in an editorial.

Unfortunately, some of folks at the Democratic Underground view this as a happy occasion & a great opportunity to take cheapshots at Kelly. It's sad to see people so fanatical & eaten up with hatred that they publicly gloat over the death of people who dare to disagree with them politically...

9215: "This warmongering chickensh*t chickenhawk is more deserving of death than innocent Iraqi children. It will be good not having to see his stupid face on the editorial pages. He and others of his bent are the ones who hyped this slaughter, let's not forget that."

Kanzeon: "I find it hard to be sad... Frankly, the less conservative pundits, the better. Though I wish they'd just consider their career options flipping burgers at McDonald's."

NewYorkerfromMass: Now if only we could get Hannity and Rush over there.

mjb4: One down...kill them all for glorifying the war. cannot feel sorry for those profiting on the deaths of innocent children

pfitz59: I was wondering too? The Michael Kelly I'm aware of is (was) a rabid right-wing nutcase. Just rewards, I'd say....

casual_observer: Tough @ss Mr Kelly! This guy was a sanctimonious son of a b*tch who got what was coming. Did any of you actually read the stuff he used to write?? Imagine the hubris of that b*stard thinking he could waltz through this thing. Ann Coulter next, I'll pay for her ticket myself. And Rush after that. I wouldn't use the Altantic Monthly for toilet paper.

ptahptah: Good riddance to bad garbage. Kelly helped make hate in this country a political ideology for the Right.

He helped further sever the lines between citizens.

He helped further demean the offices of our land especially the Presidency.

He helped further the intrusion upon our politician's personal lives and used that intrusion in an attempt to destroy the will of the people as evidenced in the results of TWO Presidential elecions in the form of impeachment.

F*ck him. Maybe his family can care about this man. I surely can't.

He crossed the line too many times and the end result was the definite worsening of our country.

AND HE KNEW WHAT HE WAS DOING!! So, save your speeches.

He wasn't just someone on the other side of the aisle.

He was a slanderous/undemocratic/smearing/lying piece of sh*t."

jackswift: "Wonderful news I'm assuming his family won't be reading this, but frankly, I'm gratified to learn that he paid the ultimate price for his sins of warmongering. This guy was scum. My first thoughts on seeing the thread were that I hoped it was that scum Post warmongering writer. My second thought was that it was a late April Fool's joke. But no false sadness from me, only happiness that someone as mean and vicious as Mike Kelly got what was coming. As for all the posts about "coming by his views honestly" and "not speaking ill of the dead", congratulations on taking the high road guys, but *ssholes like Kelly have to die sometime, and I prefer it is as a direct result of their sins. But what do I know, I'm happy that Reagan has Alzheimers and that * has access to pretzels. I wish death on my enemies, and these guys are enemies."
