And yet, one searches their memory in vain to recall any partisan political vitriol being spewed at Reagan's funeral.
Oh, that's right there was some vitriol. From Ron Reagan, Jr. who decided to seize the opportunity of a public gathering to celebrate the life of his father and take a cheap shot at President Bush's religious observance.
Look, those who want to claim some "middle ground" on this incident should save themselves the effort and embarrasment. The left acted like an ass at Wellstone's memorial and they did it again at Mrs. King's and there's no two ways about that. Regardless of speculation about where Martin would have stood on Iraq or Bush's domestic policies.
That this needs to be pointed out is another road sign on the highway to hell that our politics is clearly on.
After all, it's not as though these leftists ever seek out "middle ground". (except of course when they're demanding that conservatives move closer to their position)
