Poll question: Pick a Roommate In Hell for Reggie White

[Pegleg Thd]

1. I have 3 for you

bush/rove/chaney

[CO Liberal]

4. They're Not There Yet

But they're on their way - eventually.

[Khephra]

2. Noooooooo

See, those are all people that he'd probably be comfortable spending eternity with. You need to pick someone evil that's both gay and a minority for it to actually be a punishment and not a vacation.

[Phillycat]

5. Arthur Ashe it is.

[CO Liberal]

6. I Don't Thing Arthur Ashe is In Hell

He did good on this planet, which is more than can be said about Reggie White.

[Phillycat]

9. True.

I wasn't thinking of someone in hell, just someone dead, gay, and a minority. So we're looking for someone dead, gay, a minority, and in hell? Jeez, that's a tall order. Mao Tse Tung?

[Ellen Forradalom]

20. Mao was not a minority

At least not where he came from.

[CO Liberal]

21. I Couldn't Think Of Any

Maybe Hitler?? :shrug:

[hfojvt]

25. Arthur Ashe was gay?

Are you sure? I seem to remember a wife and kids when he died.
What about J. Edgar?

[madinmaryland]

28. Arthur Ashe was not gay.

He contracted aids through a blood transfusion.

[Sporadicus]

11. Roy Cohn

Fulfills both requirements you specified, although I suspect Cohn would reassure White that he wasn't homosexual as he applied the K-Y.

[AngryLizard]

30. Roy gets my vote as well

They would make each other absolutely miserable. There would be a lot of cursing and stuff. Ooh, maybe we could fuse them together into siamese twins!

[bleedingheart]

3. Ethel Merman

[Hokie]

7. OxyRush

I hear that he likes and respects black football players.

[Wapsie B]

8. Now now........

Reggie was the salt of the earth. /sarcasm

So we're supposed to forgive him for what he said simply because he was a good football player? One thing he did do is validate rwingers hatred. Since he was black they could point to him and tell themselves that they weren't racist because there's a man of color saying the same things they've spewed for ages.

Sorry Packer apologists. Just like Mark Chimura's accuser wouldn't get an unbiased jury in the state of Wisconsin (shoulda moved it about 90 miles south), Reggie White's transgressions are already being glossed over.

As for me I voted for Lee Atwatter to be his new roomie.

[arwalden]

10. Lester Maddox

[MissBrooks]

12. How about Michael Jackson?

[tk2kewl]

29. that sounds about right

[peekaloo]

13. I voted Lester Maddox but I'm hoping Roy Cohn stops by.

[Mika]

14. Roy Cohn and/or J Edgar Hoover - eom

[Tikki]

15. J. Edgar Hoover....

n/t

[Scurrilous]

16. Jeffrey Dahmer n/t

[GingerSnaps]

17. Who was Reggie White?

I keep hearing about Reggie White and I must be getting old because I don't know who he was or what he did for a living but it sounds like he was a right wing sports guy. :shrug:

[arwalden]

18. I'm Surprised You Hadn't Heard About Him Already...

... most people who actively support gay equality and who actively fight and speak out against faith-based bigotry know what a homophobic racist jerk he was.

He's also well known among football fans and admired as a "hero" by many.

[GingerSnaps]

23. * has been our main topic of conversation over the last year at College

I also don't know anything about sports and the people that I hang out with are into the Arts. I can't remember ever talking about sports with any of them. The only person that we talk about hating for the past year is the Rethugs and * so maybe that is why I don't know who he is.

BTW The man that was murdered in my apt. building you were right about. It was some type of payback on a drug deal and they don't believe that they will ever catch the killer. It had something to do with the bar that he hung out at which I don't go to because it's too expensive. $12.00 bucks for a watered down cocktail is not what I am willing to pay. It wasn't me that speculated about the murder it was the person who wrote the eulogy and letter and posted it in my lobby. I "assumed" that they were right and assumptions sometimes are wrong no matter who you hear them from.

[sasquatch]

19. You, once the Packer fans get a hold of you!

[CO Liberal]

22. Why? Can't They Handle The Truth?

:-)

[Moloch]

24. I think Reggie and Strom as roomates in hell

would make a great sitcom.

[SmileyBoy]

26. Hitler

Biggest hater of homosexuals in history.

[mitchum]

27. John Wayne Gacy or Dean Corll or Randy Kraft

that was sooooooo wrong

Edit: Ooops! Kraft isn't dead yet
