You are a total jerk.

[Bill]

The man is an inspiration and a national icon.

[Dana Herbert]

He is most definitely worthy of those accolades he is receiving for changing millions of lives.

He represents an era that is badly in need of a comeback.

[Dana Herbert]

There is still hope for this world Pete.

November 4th is not so far away.

You are a symptom of what is wrong with this country. You no doubt think you are a great patriot. You are, however un-American.

You and your brethren just don't get it.

He had the guts to stand up for what was right. You however, show your cowardness in the way you choose to portray this great man. He is what we need more of, you we don't.

I thought GE cleaned up the Hudson? Strange how people who suffer together have stonger convictions than people who are most content.

Yeah, GE very willingly cleaned up the Hudson. Maybe they'll get to the Housatonic.

GE has kicked and screamed all the way to doing as little as they can get away with to clean up the Hudson River. Pete Seeger had a huge influence on bringing attention to the deplorable condition of the nation's waterways, using the Hudson as one example.

Only after they were forced to by the likes of Pete Seeger. You show your total ignorance when you write such stupid things.

Sorry, I said that to you. I guess I wasn't really paying as much attention as I should have. I am glad you are on his side too. He has been a good and caring man for all of us, as well as one of the kindest human beings.

Dave Van Ronk? He is cool. If it's about the music, fine.

But I got the sense you're another of those cranky old right wingers. Perhaps my impression was wrong.

It was, I apologize. If my impression was correct, nevermind.
