Do you know why people don't race gerbils?

They're too hard to get out of Gere.

You believe all sorts of urban legends, don't you, Bart?

Anyway, here's the straight deal on Gere and gerbils - yes, it's a
myth, but the articles or not for the squeamish:

No I don't believe it. Never-the-less I despise
Richard Gere. Did you hear what he said after
911? He will never be welcome in the New
York area again.

You sure do despise a lot of people... I feel sorry for you,
but I suspect you despise yourself a lot more.

OK, so exactly what did Gere say that infuriated you so much?

I think he said, don't forget to tip your waitresses
and bartenders. grin

Truthfully, Gere spoke about compassion and so forth
and to forget vengeance. I have the tape I'll have to watch
it again. I disagree with Gere.

The man is a devout Buddhist and spoke of compassion. And for this you have to
make him the object of the crudest possible "joke". You are one sick puppy,
Bart.

I think Gere is a Hindu. I'm a Buddist.

Nothing sick about it. What is sick is Gere's attitude is the
attitude of a loser and a quitter.

Lets set the stage. Gere stupidly talked about
compassion in front of a crowd entirely made up of
people who had just lost relatives and many friends
to a brutal cowardly act of terrorism. This was a
benefit concert for the families of policemen and
fire fighters, and the husbands, wives, and children,
victims of the terrorist attacks of 911. And, those
serving that survived.

I'd call what Gere said in that venue grossly insensitive and
rude. These people were and are entitled to vengence. I
liken it to the man who raped and killed my innocent 13 year
old niece. I don't want to hear about compassion, I want her
killer dead, and as quickly as possible. If you want to talk
about compassion, find someone else to preach to.

This points to the major differences between liberals and
conservatives. Liberals lay down and die, conservatives
stand up and fight. This was a crowd of fighters, not a bunch
of lame, guilty liberals.

If Gere can dish is out, he can take it too. It should be
no problem for him to take it since he preaches compassion.

Regarding the joke, it's funny, and it's fitting. No one believes
it's true anyway.

It certainly reflect how many people, myself included, feel about
Richard Gere. If people like him (Kerry) run out country, we
will all die.

So, what you're saying is that it's ok to hate blindly rather
than have compassion for anyone. Thanks for clarifying.

We have no idea what you are, Bart. You certainly aren't a Buddhist; you don't
even know how its spelled!

Unless, off course, you're really claiming you worship Budweiser.
