This is powerful stuff!

As mourners left the Tim Russert memorial, moments after hearing someone perform Somewhere Over The Rainbow at the service, a rainbow was seen over Washington, D.C.

      That was absolutely amazing. Whether anyone wants to admit it that was no coincidence. Beautiful…

      If you could have had the fox reporters shut up so we could see the rainbow and take in our own thoughts on Tim Russert, that would have said it all. Those blow hards at fox don't know when to let the quiet do the talking. Too bad. It was a beautiful tribute to an amazing man, husband, and Father. I think people are going to miss him for a long, long time.

      Re: carri – I agree with Carrie, seems she's the lone voice of reason. It's a non-stop love-fest for good old Tim, he was famous for his spirit and overall averageness I guess… but can we just stop it now please?!? Puke!

      Maybe it was Tim Russert's or god's way of telling Washington and his viewers that he approved of the recent overturning of Gay Marriage in California. The Coincidence of the "Rainbow" (A symbol for LGBT) and after the song "Somewhere over the Rainbow" which is originally heard in The Wizard Of Oz, a "Friend Of Dorothy" Movie standard.
      Given that Gay Marriage is a hot political topic, it seems that this may be a logical explanation to this coincidence…

      Re: NOT G – …about New Orleans, Iowa, & Mississippi… I realize you probably have never even seen a Bible nor would dare to read it if it stared you in the face, but maybe you have heard the story of a man named Noah & his Arc. God promised after He flooded the earth leaving only what was in the arc alive, that He would never flood the ENTIRE earth again. He said nothing of "minor" localized flooding. You misunderstand His message. His promise was never to wipe out civilization again, not never have any flooding ever again. It's all in the Bible for your reference if you'd like to check my info.

      Are you people fucking serious? It's. A. Rainbow. It happens when light strikes water vapor in the atmosphere causing the light to refract and split into the colors of the visible light spectrum.

      I'm pretty goddam certain someone in Darfur was getting raped with a machete at that same moment. Is it "Their" rainbow too? Or do things like this only count if you are a…hell..I don't even know who the guy was.

      Seriously..this site is going downhill in a major way.

      Perez is becoming more and more of a joke with each new AWWWWWWWWWW look at this post. I think he needs to make up his mind as to whether he is an incredibly sensitive fat gay man or an incredibly rude fat gay man. Either way, it's gonna be another week or two before I come back to this site for some laughs because it's annoying that he actually posted an article about a rainbow.

      Um, it was humid and misting for much of the day. I could see two separate rainbows out of my windshield when I pulled into a parking lot in Manassas around that time of day. It's weather, not some divine spiritual bullshit.

      People aren't reborn as rainbows, idiots.

      You people are pathetic. Let a good man rest peacefully. I am sure that the rainbow was not because of Queer marriage, and if God wants to start localized flloding start in San Francisco and Cityu hHalls performing these sham "weddings".
      Tim Russert was a good family man. Hold his family in your hearts, one day you will pass. What will others say about you?
