Not Gonna Miss Ya

So Jerry Fallwell died yesterday.
I know it's crass, but I can't honestly say I'll miss the guy.
In fact, I can say with great confidence that I won't miss him, except as the best of punchlines.
Simply can't get behind a guy who defines his belief, his public image, his seeming whole life, by the people of whom he disapproves. I don't get definition by exclusion. Maybe it's just me, but I'd rather be part of something that welcomes rather than one that pridefully omits. I remember one article in the National Liberty Journal where he claimed that the Lilith Fair was a demon-worshipping event. Sure thing there, Jer.
