Rites or Rally? Dems Can't Decide
Was it a funeral for Coretta Scott King or a bash Bush rally?
Apparently, some Democrats have a hard time telling the difference.
Wacko ex-prez Jimmy Carter and former NAACP honcho Jos. Lowry took
their turns on the podium to lash into the current Republican
administration.
It was reminiscent of the Paul Wellstone memorial in 2002. Bubbling
Democratic anger forced Republican invitees to leave the event. After
the fact publicity derailed the bid of 50 state loser Walter Mondale to
win the deceased's Senate seat.
Can anyone say say "deja vu?" Do the Dems really enjoy shooting
themselves in the foot?

Yeah, after all these years, those crazy negroes and the their
negro-loving friends still haven't learned their place. Good thing we
have the GOP around to teach them proper manners.

Or, to be less snarky: Given the history of her and her family, I'd be
willing to bet that Mrs. King, her late husband, and the King family as
a whole would be hap-hap-happy to have friends use the pulpit to decry
the use of illegal wiretaps, the war, the erosion of civil rights, the
lack of concern for the poor and underprivleged, and whatever else,
particularly with a captive audience consisting of many of those
responsible for said social ills.

KLG and his fellows in the Wrong Wing hining about the politicization of
the King funeral is like Democrats whining about the Bush
Administration's persistent tendency to powergrab and obfuscate. It's
the nature of the thing, and to expect different would be foolish.

so we should expect people to criticize the government at every funeral from
now on? How does that work? I thought funerals were for the comfort of the
bereaved and to say goodbye to the dearly departed.
It was a disgrace that an ex-president, a serving senator, and a minister
would use it to attack any guest. But the liberals keep grasping at straws.

Where did I say that I had any objection???
As long as you liberals keep demonstrating to thinking Americans why
Democrats don't deserve to win elections, more power to 'em!

Thinking Americans know GW and his puppet master Tim LeHaye are full of crap
rednecks. Anyone that thinks preaching at a King funeral is disgraceful is
ignorant. Keep pining to be part of the GW elite by labeling all dissent as
liberal leftist propaganda because it will hurt less when you wonder why an
energy crisis brought upon us is affecting your blindly obedient ass.

Personally, if someone used my funeral to talk about things in life that I
very much believed in, I would think that was a fitting tribute to my life.

I just kind of assume that people at my funeral will be a bunch of attention
sucking exploiting liars since that how it usually goes. My old man's family
had great funerals cuz it was a bunch of cynical boozers telling jokes.
That's how it should be.

I was just at a funeral the other night - it convinced me that I want my own
held in a bowling alley. Go bowl a game and think of me.

I'm thinking Hooters with buffet hotwings and curly fries and Apocalypse Now
