What Is It With Democrats And Funerals?

What is it that makes Democrats incapable of controlling their hostility, even during funerals?

Especially during funerals.

Rush Limbaugh just played a clip of today’s “Wellstone Funeral moment” from Rev. Joseph Lowry in which he raised the issue of weapons of mass destruction in the Coretta Scott King funeral, then talked about how not enough money is going to the poor.

I know I have seen figures that indicate that Bush has spent more on some programs for the poor than Clinton did, but it wouldn’t matter if he had spent ten times more.

Facts don’t matter.

This is pure theater, folks.

Can you imagine how the media would have reported a Republican using the Reagan funeral to make the point that Democrats were wrong about communism and that they are just as wrong on terrorism?

Fortunately we have a President with more class in his little finger than the entire Democrat party.

Following the Lowry comments, Bush gave him a hug.

No. And that's the most tragic part. We KNOW that truth and righteous outrage no longer guides the majority of those entrusted with power in our country. It p*sses me off most of the time. Right now it just makes me sad for the loss of truth. The conscious choice made by so many to simply toss it aside and disregard it with no thought or guilt.

Bush is the only proven Christian today.

MLK's preacher daughter denounced gay marriage at the graveside ceremony. She's got "stones" - I'll have to hand it to her!

Yeah, that was my first thought, too. Too bad for the family, who had to see their final farewell turned into a photo and sound bite op from those with poor judgment. Further disappointment that ANYONE in the crowd would stand up and cheer something that unconscionable.

What did I tell you about the man who practices the art of turning the other cheek! Can only imagine how Laura and X41 felt after the ridiculous tirade and I'm glad I tuned out before Kennedy/Clinton/Conyers/Carter spoke.

Anyone with a brain knows....

You just eliminated the entire VOTING wing of the Democrat Party. They don't know and don't exhibit the characteristics of synaptic thought!

I think this stuff is straight out of Joseph Goebbels' Propaganda for Dummies.

The "Big Lie" (Bush Lied, Bush is Waging War on Blacks, Bush Let the Hurricane destroy New Orleans, Tax Cuts for the Rich, Bush Stole the Election, Bush is Destroying the Earth) (take your pick) has been told often enough and loud enough that these people believe the Lie more than they believe it if you told them the sun was shining. Their one, unalterable reality, is the Lie. This is right out of Germany in the 1930's.

The Germans eventually figured out it was all a lie, of course, but by then their country had been destroyed by war, and it took them a couple of generations to rebuild.

I don't see a whole lot of difference here.

Remember Bubba at Ron Brown's Funeral.

He went from laughing to crying in less than a second...when he found the camera.

Send that clip to Michael Brown and watch him go into his famous denial mode. Dang--they have become so obvious! Their faces can't even hide their lies anymore.

Democrats blind are leading the blind. There is a cancer of hatred eating their party away. Their house is on fire and burning while they are simply unaware of the damage taking place. They have created an image of out-of-control hatred within the Democrat Party.
