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.
