The family of a Marine who was killed in Iraq is furious with Lt. Gov. Catherine Baker Knoll for showing up uninvited at his funeral this week, handing out her business card and then saying "our government" is against the war.

I guess she just assumed that anyone who lost a family member would be opposed to the war. That seems to me to be a typical liberal/Dem response. They just can't seem to grasp the idea that there are people who might find some things worth dying for, that there are ideals and beliefs and loyalties that are worth even more than one's own life. I think that distinction is part of the left's distrust, misunderstanding, and animosity toward the military. It's like military xenophobia: the concepts of duty and sacrifice are so foreign to them, they just can't understand it and so view it with distaste at best.

That's exactly what I was thinking.

What a class act! I guess these people know no shame.

"The madness continues. I keep thinking it cannot get worse. It does.'

Same here, but the rats continue to find ways to outrage me.. then again, the 'bottomless' pit these vermin emanate from, is self-explanatory.

Well, how's THAT for a "thank you for your service to our country?"

[geezerwheezer]

I really do feel sad for this Marine's family. Just think what you would do if some idiot came to one of your family members' funeral and did this! What unmitigated gall she has.I hope they run her out of office, and even Pennsylvania.

When an article leaves out the party affiliation, its 99% that the article is about a 'Rat.

[DarthVader]

Personally I would like to have seen someone give her a good solid backhand, so she would have to pick up some of her teeth.

[small voice in the wilderness]

I'm beginning to see the truth of *bottomless*. Kinda scary, when you realize there can and will be no end to their depths of depravity. Cripes, it's depressing.

[TC Rider]

She said she is going to seek an answer from Gov. Ed Rendell's administration if it opposes the fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Rendell's office does not oppose the war, they just hate Bush.

[AndyJackson]

It is a crying shame that this marine had to die defending this idiot's right to sell out to islamic radicals.

[SunnySide]

If I had been the parents of the deceased marine I would've have popped her right in the mouth then shoved her torn up business card(what an ego) in her mouth.

psycho hideous Demo-liberals, "It's all about Me! Me! Me!"

[sandydipper]

Pure slime.

[txnativegop]

Anyone know how to contact this weasel?

[MichiganCheese]

She just self-identified herself as a seditious traitor. Our country is at war, and she is against our country at a time of war. Why aren't these people going straight to prison for the rest of their miserable lives?

[The Mayor]

Welcome Home

" Whew the demo party of dean/hillary/knoll/rendell are now crashing funerals. "

Because they're trying to recruit more dead votes. Sick but true. I'd make sure that Marines #SS, etc., is secure and never becomes available as a registered voter in 2008.

Demo-Vultures, they'll even pick at bones.

[SunnySide]

"I'm just glad they have no guns on their side."

Their body guards do, ask Rosie O'Donut all about it. Elite hypocrites don't bother will the little details.

"PENNSYLVANIA! From the state that brought you Arlen Specter and Ed Rendell."

That's MAGIC BULLET SPECTER...AND "I bring'em back to life on Election Day" RENDELL!
