Howard Zinn is dead and nobody told me.

Hoo-Ya!

I am an old-school American partisan here, and have little respect for Progressive adversaries.  But, when one of the sumbitches dies, like Ted Kennedy, I will wait a suitable period of time before gloating reflecting on how much better our lives, our nation, and the world would be had the departed never been born.  I'll even wait for Jummy - although the way that C___S_____ is hanging on, he may outlast me. So there's that. Comments to posts older than a few days are turned off until I  review them (defeat the spammers). I just received this automated request for a comment made to a post from Friday, September 12, 2008. “   mperkins has left a new comment on your post "Howard Zinn, et al": Quote: Doesn't matter any more, Roger. He died a long time ago. He's now roasting with his dead commie heroes Marx, Lenin, Trotsky & Mao, whom he always gave a pass in his comparisons to our Founding Fathers because they were working "for the betterment of the masses". Did he die of 3rd stage syphilis? :) I am going through the archives as I only discovered the site last year. What?  I looked it up.    That commiesumbitch Howard Zinn indeed dropped dead on January 27, 2010.  What a party we missed.  It is not mine to say whether anyone is in Hell, or not; but unless he made a powerful act of contrition with his last breath ... - Lake Cocytus?  Next question: is his peg-boy Matt Damon still alive, or did I miss that one too?
