goodnight, hater

Black Sheep has some choice quotes to remember Falwell by (via Gawker). Also, Wonkette screencaps Falwell’s Wikipedia death update. Let’s also not forget, while Fox rolls out the barely-disguised tributes and Bush mourns his hero, and I regret that I did not yet get famous enough to have a chance to challenge Falwell on CNN (a fantasy) — let’s not forget this choice forget-me-not he said on the 700 Club in regard to the September 11, 2001 attacks:

“I really believe that the pagans, and the abortionists, and the feminists, and the gays and the lesbians who are actively trying to make that an alternative lifestyle, the ACLU, People For the American Way, all of them who have tried to secularize America. I point the finger in their face and say ‘you helped this happen.’”

He called the Teletubbies fags, said the antichrist had to be a Jew, said the MCC Church (locally home of the Sisters) will “one day be utterly annihilated and there will be a celebration in heaven.”

A toast under the rainbow flag it is.
