Gene Stipe Dies

[Cards81fan]

Who sits around and wonders about dead politicans in the middle of the night?

This.

I'm not rushing to the defense of David here, but I think based on the tense of his original statement, ol' Stipe wasn't dead when he was pondering that happened to him some days ago.

Last I heard, I thought Stipe was sentenced but got out of time in prison sue to his declining health. Is that accurate? I think it was no secret he was unsavory in much of his politics. I wasn't a fan of his on the whole, but I'm not going to post any kind of good riddance sentiment either. He's been out of the game for quite a while now.

He cheated & ruined a lot of people, played the legal system and was a all-round scoudrel... he doesn't get a free pass now just because he is dead.

Did you personally know Gene Stipe? I have my suspicions but just wanted to inquire.

Well, I'm kinda reluctant to give my best shot since.....

Dadgum! That was funny! Imagine:

Y'all still beating the guy who was beating the dead guy for beating on a dead guy instead of a live guy?

[yukonjack]

Good, I can feel your butthurt. I am defenseless. Take your weapon. Strike me down with all of your hatred and your journey towards the dark side will be complete!

I only hit him once and that was more then 12 hours ago.

I'm not saying he was crooked ,but there is not going to be a funeral service, they're just going to screw him into the ground.LOL

You guys are making me agree with JB more and more...

[Blinocac200sx]

Just an interesting aside I was thinking about. At the time he left office, he had been in office for more than half of statehood.

Stipe has to be on Satan's Dream Team of crooked politicians...

[BadgeBunny]

LOL ... there will be an upcoming thread about Bob Macy soon ... Oh, wait, he hasn't died yet? Oh, maybe he did, I don't know ... didn't care enough to google before I posted.

jstaylor, you hit the nail on the head about the Dream Team ...

[Billybob]

So thats it.. you are a Stipe supporter.. should have known... explains a lot. You are defending a guy who ruined hundreds of people's lives & reputations, stole, took bribes and no telling what else...why, because.. " Stipe helped a ton of people in SE Oklahoma" and he is a dead octogenarian. Your current credibility credit limit just hit: 'OOO"! You've got no room to criticize anyone.

Or it's because some will protect their hallowed institutions regardless, kind of like Penn State.

Of all the comments you have made, this is the stupidest. Comparing Senator Stipe to Penn State. Shame on you, you jackass.

I specifically said "institutions". Many supported the sports program and school at Penn. regardless of what those involved might have done huh? I never compared Sen. Stipe to anyone, I'm comparing Penn. to the political/legal industry in OK.

People who enabled child rape to the political/legal industry in Oklahoma?

Billybob, you're too smart to be such an ass. Really, get a grip.
