Jesse Jackson shaking hands with Hillary. Bill all smiles, applauding.

To: DoctorMichael
I'm so happy that Sen. Wellstone is being remembered with taste and decorum. (sarcasmoff/)
This is a freakin' pep rally, and anyone even associated with this sideshow is absolutely and totally morally bankrupt.
God, these people will even cheer the Wooden One.
To: DoctorMichael
This is a bunch of
cr@p. This is not a memorial service. This is free political advertising brought to you by CSPAN and the DRats.
To: freedom1st
It's obscene!
To: DoctorMichael
I'am I the only one or is this really really SICK !!!!!
To: DoctorMichael
What the heck...? So far I think this is nothing but another DemocRATic convention to nominate Mondale!

Oh, good, I was hoping there was a thread. Husband refuses to watch, but I see from the photos that everyone is overcome with grief.
Blech.
To: Irish Eyes
You are not alone. I can't believe the music. This is so totally inappropriate.

Gee, one would think that they would at least PRETEND to be sorrowful! Look at Hillary...she looks transfigured with joy!!
To: DoctorMichael
remember this is NOT a political rally </sarcasm
To: DoctorMichael
When I saw the thread, I tuned to CSPAN. My first reaction: "I must have the wrong channel."
Why? Because they were playing this loud pop music. Totally inappropriate for a memorial service. What the heck is going on here?

Ye gods...this is
MEMORIAL SERVICE???? I am shocked beyond belief...and and jaded as I am, that is no easy task. I just hope that many others are as disgusted as I am by this horrid display. Smiling like this after a man's family has been ripped apart!
To: Miss Marple
Truly nauseating, isn't it? It's old home week for the DNC. I just turned it on a little while ago. My husband is going to have a fit when he comes in here and sees this. Don't think he'll let it stay on long...

You're not the only one. I'm actually relieved that the VP was snubbed - imagine the response he would receive from the double digit crowd in the audience.
It's not surprising the democRATS act this way at a 'memorial' - just another stiff helping them to grab power.

Singers; "Hold on! Change is comin'. Everything gonna be alright. Lalalalalalalalalala. Don't you worry".
To: dittomom
I will only get to see it if hubby goes to bed early. I hope those watching will report on the speeches and music.
Surely Minnesota will be horified at this.

This Democrat Convention, oh I mean memorial service for Paul Wellstone is on every single local channel. If it keeps up the way it is, I will be calling all the networks later this evening demanding equal time for the Republican Party
To: Miss Marple; JRandomFreeper; Neets
Overcome with glee, is more like it!!!
They are all mugging when the camera shows them on Fanavision in the arena...not even trying to fake a solemn event...
Applauding the Dem elites at a 'memorial service' is a bit tawdry, dontcha think???
To: dittomom
All the democrap senators are parading in like they are conquering heros...
PUKE, GAG, BARF

You should see it! This is not Memorial Service but a campaign rally for Mondale. I hope every citizen of Minnesota sees this! I am totally appalled and even Daschle looks very uncomfortable!
To: DoctorMichael
Am I crazy, or are these people HAPPY that Wellstone is dead?
They're certainly acting like it.

You're right. Cheney would not be comfortable there.
Wow. Are they actually having a moment of silence now?

I can't watch it. A man and his wife and daughter were killed. Totally inappropriate behavior at a memorial service.

........a very long reverential silence.........
To: Bitwhacker
They are using the Fanavision? Yikes! Tackier and tackier.
Let us contrast with the September 15 Memorial Service that Laura Bush planned at the National Cathedral.
This sounds like a travesty.
To: hole_n_one
Dancing on the grave. This event is unspeakable!
To: isthisnickcool
Check this out! It is the most unbelieveable thing I have seen!
To: Bitwhacker
This is truly sick...

It is time for the repubs to take the gloves off!!! This looks like the 76 Demoratic convention!!!

This is a memorial service for a man, his wife and daughter and five others who died in a horrible accident.
I doubt the music being played was Wellstone's favorite. But even if it was, I don't think it's appropriate for such an event.
Have a read of the other comments posted here. The consensus is that the tone that is being struck is just wrong.
