Good question. The entire country is wondering the same thing.

Are they such seething fanatics that nothing is apolitical?

[Common Tator]

Democrats and funerals.

They hate George Bush. They fear the next funeral he attends will be their parties.

You are correct.

" nothing is apolitical"

I watched this... I have no idea what to call this without using a long stream of profanity... from the Leftists gathered to pay tribute to Mrs. King.

It was disgusting.

It made me angry.

Then, it made me smile.

If this is the public face of their party, then their time is over for good.

Haven't read through the posts, but the answer is simple. To the left, everything is political. Funerals, weddings, the planned "Gaying" of the White House Easter Egg Roll, the Boy Scouts, religion, plumbing (low-flow toilets), math (if 2,000 acres of rain forest are destroyed every day, how many acres are destroyed in a 365 day year), medicine (questionnaires at the doctor's office about how many firearms you own), etc. You name it; it's political. There is no time to them that should not be used to push a political advantage.

I saw a table discussion that included Rangel and a Republican strategist. At one point the Republican strategist turned to Rangel and said, "I don't want to silence you. As long as you're out there expressing your beliefs, we'll keep winning elections." I'm paraphrasing, but that was the substance. In one way, they anger me. Mrs. King's funeral could have been a time to honor her, but instead turned into a bout of political sniping because of comments by Carter and others at the funeral. On the other hand, they apparently learned nothing from the Wellstone funeral debacle, and that bodes well for the Republicans.

Many DemonRATs calling into conservative talk shows said they were changing their voter registration - this was the last straw. I can only hope this carries on into Nov 04. What loosers . . . .

Hate overwhelms grief.

And since their grief was insincere in the first place, hate had an easy task!!
