the demise of this scumbag.

PITTSBURGH (AP) - Billionaire media mogul Richard Mellon Scaife says
he has an untreatable form of cancer.

Scaife is the publisher of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review and owner of
Trib Total Media. He said in a column published Sunday that he learned
of his diagnosis recently.

The 81-year-old Scaife is an heir to the Mellon banking fortune and is
a notable backer of conservative causes. He serves as the vice
chairman of the board of the Heritage Foundation.

Scaife says some who dislike him may "rejoice" at the news of his
diagnosis, but he "can't share their enthusiasm." He went on to say
none of the causes he's supported give him such a great sense of
accomplishment as the newspaper business.

Last year, Forbes estimated Scaife's worth at $1.4 billion.

I thank god that I don't live in your world of fear and hate.

I felt the same way about Teddy Kennedy. I guess we are both going to
hell. ;-)

I hear there are scores of windmills in Nantucket sound to commemorate
his passing.

I had never heard of "this scumbag" until JPS expressed his delight in
his future demise. So, I looked him up.

Ah .. the lefties don't like him because he donates to conservative and
libertarian political candidates. But wait a minute ...

He also makes financial donations to support National Public Radio.

He also donated millions to abortion rights advocates and Planned
Parenthood.

He donated funds to restore and beautify the White House during the
Clinton administration.

His paper endorsed Hillary Clinton for President.

He is the key benefactor to:

"Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra, the Sarah Scaife Galleries at the
Carnegie Institute of Pittsburgh art museum, the Brandywine Conservancy,
the Phipps Conservatory, and the National Gallery of Art in Washington,
DC, as well as Goodwill Industries of Pittsburgh. He and his foundations
have contributed to Sarah Scaife's favorite causes: population control
(e.g. Planned Parenthood), environmental conservation, and hospitals;
Jonas Salk developed his polio vaccine in a Sarah Scaife-funded
laboratory. He also supports a variety of educational institutions,
notably the University of Chicago, the Fletcher School of Law and
Diplomacy at Tufts University, Carnegie Mellon University, Boston
University, the University of Pittsburgh, the University of Rochester,
Smith College, and Bowling Green State University."

Yep. What a scumbag.





JPS and Harry must have a love/hate thing going on with this guy. Oh
well, it gives them a purpose in life, I suppose.

How many people died while riding in the car with Scaife? Zero.

How many people died while riding in the car with Kennedy? One.

Kennedy was a smarmy scumbag, but expressing joy over someone's demise
is sort of sick. Good riddance would be a much more appropriate reaction.

I'm patiently waiting for Rush Limbaugh to have a fatal stroke while
choking on spareribs during one of his video-recorded radio broadcasts,
not because I wish him dead, but because of the entertainment value it
will provide. Millions and millions and millions of views on YouTube,
for sure.

I don't think Limbaugh will be sitting at the side of the Devil, though.
Dick Cheney has that seat reserved.

You're a real sicko. I hope you don't mind me saying good riddance at
the news of your passing. ;-)

How many people have the kennedys raped, stolen from, and generally
taken advantage of because of their blood money? Too many...

It's in their genes. Jack, maybe, to a lesser degree

Maybe you should direct your comments to JPS who expressed his desire to
"celebrate" this guy's demise.

He'll read it, and be suitably chastised I'm sure. But your listing of
charitable contributions means nothing.
The Planned Parenthood giving was his sister's doing.
The wealthy are behind Joe Sixpack in charitable giving.
Scaife isn't mother Teresa.
He could very well be a scumbag.
But I won't celebrate his death. Might be my Christian upbringing.
But it's bad mojo in any case. He has family who love him.
Probably. I hope so.

Luddite's listing of pertinent facts is what prompted your 'chastizement' of jps, the person to whom
you should have responded.

But then, you wouldn't want to upset another BS'ing liberal, right?

You don't need to list ways the wealthy get rid of excess money.
Ask why would one celebrate the death of another?
There are exceptions, like Osama Bin Laden.
But it's bad mojo to express joy at somebody's death.
It's watering hate to make it grow larger.
Hate is irrational and soul-destroying.
Death is nothing to celebrate.

I will rejoice at this scumbag's death. Doesn't matter how many
charities Carnegie donated to, he was still a ******* and a scumbag
who took advantage of other men to make himself filthy rich.

Fools can paper over whatever they like, this piece of ****'s demise
will be a net positive for the planet.

So much for liberal "enlightenment".

Just think JPS ... as a captain of industry for 22 years it's very
likely that you've ****ed off one or two people along the way. Bad
contract, misunderstandings, whatever ... it happens. So somewhere out
there someone may be harboring the same sentiments about you.
