    Doesn't take away from what he did.

    No one says it does. But it also doesn't mean someone who can't stand womanizers can't comment on the womanizing.

    Does any of the other stuff the guy said sound like anything a decent human being would say?

    Is sleeping around on your wife anything a decent human being would do?

    I tend to doubt that's what really bothered Bob Grant about him.

    The tolerance and compassion of leftists should serve as a shining example for all of us.

    You hate to speak I'll of the dead my ass.

    I agree with you there, but RecoveringDesker is right about one thing. You seem VERY happy to speak of the dead.

    I'm not defending who Grant was at all, but it sure seems like you created this thread only so you could speak ill of somebody who just died.

    Thanks for the laugh. You say it as if it isn't something people on all sides of the political spectrum do.

    Tolerance for Bob Grant's intolerance?
    He was not exactly what anyone could call a decent human being.

    The point remain. Recovering Desker is absolutely right about one thing. At least in this instance, you don't hate speaking ill of the dead at all.

    Well, yeah, in this case.
    Anyone who refers to blacks as subhumanoids doesn't deserve my respect whether they're dead or alive.
