So after a pathetic anti-Semite decided to observe Passover by randomly killing two Methodists and a Catholic, we cats noticed a couple of things during the subsequent media coverage.
Nope, sorry — no cable news talking head brought on a Republican to defend Frazier Glenn Cross's holy right to bear arms under the sacred Second Amendment. Darn it.
But Baby Luke on MSNBC, who reports news on TV only because his last name is "Russert," did say that Cross shouted "'Hail' Hitler" as he was arrested. Gosh, Baby Luke, do you not know your hails from your heils? Have you never seen a World War II movie?
But on the bright side, Mindy Losen — the daughter and mom of two of the victims — gave an extraordinary news conference. She spoke about her father and her son, and the importance of faith and forgiveness. And she also said, "When I pulled up I saw [my father] lying on the ground. My first thought was that he had a heart attack and was just lying there."
We cats wanted to kiss Mindy Losen — not just because she seems like a nice person, but because she said "lying" and not "laying." Good grammar like that doesn't happen often. Savor it when it does.
