AP couldn't find a better picture than that?

You know, for some reason, I was expecting a "suck it, libs" headline.

wegro froestu: AP couldn't find a better picture than that?

AP is providing dozens of pictures for this story. FoxNews chose this particular one. Make of that what you will.

I'd be making that face too if I walked around wearing a silly bowtie like that.

Can't say I'm sorry to see him go: for decades he was the face of respectable academic America-can-do-no-wrong history.

Zagloba-Can't say I'm sorry to see him go: for decades he was the face of respectable academic America-can-do-no-wrong history.

You haven't actually read any of his books, have you?
Try to think for yourself next time.

But will his wife continue to host her advice-oriented AM radio talk-show?

Who? Clevinger? I thought he died in a puff of smoke over Ferrara?

"Arthur Schlesinger dined died here."
 
2007-03-01 07:53:35 AM
In honor of Mr. Schlesinger Jr.'s passing, I shall now close my eyes, flip through the 1164 pages of A History of American Life, and point to a random passage. We may use this fate-selected as source of inspiration throughout our coming day. Here we go:

It could not, first, because it was alien; second, because they had a thoroughly accepted and well-tried-out set of gods of their own, to whom their spirits cried in the hour of anguish and to whom they addressed thanks or petition as occasion demanded.

Amen.

That's nice submitter. Mind showing a bit of class for the dead???
 
2007-03-01 07:56:52 AM
He left us too soon.

If we are to survive, we must have ideas, vision, and courage. These things are rarely produced by committees. Everything that matters in our intellectual and moral life begins with an individual confronting his own mind and conscience in a room by himself.

I found the simple life wasn't so simple when I jumped out on that road. I've got no love, no love you call real. That's why I'm living at a pace that kills.

R.I.P.

He's no Ann Coulter, that's for sure.

Bush's fault

He was good on "Oz".

Nothing says "I'm a complete iconclast, just like
everyone else" like a bowtie.

/Still, he was an interesting scholar
 
2007-03-01 08:38:24 AM
I read his book Profiles in Courage when I was in high school.

/oh, wait

According to my pretend notes, the word scholar is used to reference conservatives. Intellectual (East Coast [New York is often acceptable], Ivory Tower or elite) is preferred for liberals.

I'd be willing to wager at least 20%, depending on the over/under.

/read Art Schlichter at first glance
 
2007-03-01 08:56:25 AM
Isn't this Bush's fault? I mean, he was healthy during those Clinton years, right?

/Begin now.

You know I went to the edge, and then I looked down. I lost a lot of friends there, baby--I ain't got no time to mess around.

RIP to him. That guy is a indoctrinated prick.

Dude is a liar. He's a blind administration follower. He helped keep articles on subjects the administration didn't want in the public covered up that were vital, and cost many lives.

He is evil, and the worst part is I don't think he realizes it, but by god does he know the actions are bad. I just don't think they sink in for this fool.

Suck it Libs.


/There ya go, Psychonaut

You know, for some reason, I was expecting a "suck it, libs" headline.

You mean, "Suck it, Democrats without any real liberal spine."

Reasonable people think this guy is a yes man for the government who after you do it long enough becomes evil and terrible.

He may have been terrible before though, I'm not really sure.

Vietnam was disgusting, and if you don't understand that, you're disgusting. It was an attack against a people, similar to Iraq.

We attacked Vietnam, lied about it, put people in concentration camps, and then carpet bombed Cambodia and Laos.

Break free from Indoctrination. Especially the really obvious stuff.

Looks like a fox photographer was there as he drew his last breath.

The New York Times has a fine one in its obit today. Fox went with the most unflattering pic of course--the guy was a unabashed and fierce Cold War liberal, like RFK and JFK. Remember, FoxNews is not actual journalism. All hat, no cattle.

As an AMH grad student, I think I should be more sad than I am. His father's books have been more influential in my line of work. Still, it's a loss. Anytime an historian is known by people that aren't historians, that's an accomplishment...
 
2007-03-01 10:46:40 AM
RIP Schlesinger. He was one of the great historians of our time.
 
2007-03-01 11:18:54 AM
Sad?
 
2007-03-01 11:20:04 AM
Well, he's dead.
