Geeting Kicks a Dead Conservative

Arch-conservative Charles Darwin Snelling took his own life Wednesday night, shortly after the apparent mercy killing of his wife. She suffered from Alzheimer's disease. They had been married for 61 years. According to his family, "we know he acted out of deep devotion and profound love."

Snelling and I never got along. But I take no joy in the death of a person I never really knew, even if his politics differ radically from mine.

Not blogger Jonathan Geeting. Just one day after bashing the new Executive Director of RenewLV (he wanted the job himself, he admits), Geeting bashes a man who obviously was in great anguish. Why? Because his politics were "seriously malign."

If anything is malign, it is Geeting himself.

Lehigh Professor Steve Thode asks Geeting, "Have you no shame?"

The answer is obvious.

Updated 4:40 PM: Geeting Doubles Down! - Instead of a simple apology, Geeting doubles down in a comment on this blog. "I'm very glad that he [Snelling] will not be around to influence politics anymore."
