Why?
Because it shows the press will trot out stories like these in election years - anybody but Bush BS.
Because this dead lady is a sad case if her dying wish is about politics.
Because there is precedence and adds to a history of bias press stories here on FR with the same theme - for instance: "Her Dying wish: To Oust Bush"
And because it gets lots of comments. :^)
Just about says it all. Could have wished that more people would come to Jesus Christ and avoid hell. Could have wished that more starving children find some way to get food and a means to feed themselves. Could have wished for people with awful illnesses would get well. Could have wished for an end to the Iraq war and that all personnel come home safely. She is definitely in Satan's column if her last wish was truly about politics of any kind.
I really don't have a final wish about Democrats OR Republicans, but about people's souls. Unbelievable. Has to have been made up.
