America has problems, but America is NOT THE PROBLEM!~
Trash talking at a funeral! have they no shame?
Published on February 8, 2006 By Moderateman In Current Events
Taking the opportunity on a national set to show some class the Democrats missed their change once again.

Using Coretta Scott King's funeral to launch attacks on the President.

Ex-President Jimmy the peanut Carter compared the wire tapping of Reverend Martin Luther King in the 60's To the NSA's spying on enemies of the country, somehow jimmyboy forgot to mention that it was a DEMOCRATIC ORDER to tap king's phones, ordered by Robert F. Kennedy and approved by JFK himself. While speaking other Democratic demigods brought up the WMD"S that were not found in Iraq, again forgetting that all the Democratic leaders thought Saddam had them. Just another case of the left wing abusing a situation to show their hatred of George W. Bush. Have they no shame? This was a funeral honoring Coretta {why I have no Idea why she deserved this honor} sad how proper behavior escapes the left whenever they get a chance to show off on a national forum. Just one more time the country to see how stupid and weak the Democratic Party has become. "

LW:
To play devils advocate for a moment, my brother's funeral (arranged by my parents) was defiled by Baptists, who used the occasion to proseltyze and warn people not to die "unsaved" like he did. He was an atheist. After the eulogies, the preacher actually asked people to come forward and dedicate their lives to Christ, right there in front of his open casket. He would have been furious.


I'll contrast that with a poor preacher at the funeral I mention once in awhile, where the deceased had committed suicide, and the family was certain he was burning in hell as they grieved. The preacher didn't try to use the situation to his advantage, he simply tried to comfort the family through a horrifying time. Apparently the "preacher" at your brother's funeral needs to learn a thing or two about caring for other people instead of pushing his own agenda where it doesn't belong.

I was enraged like I've never been enraged before. I bit my tongue though, out of respect for my parents, who were already suffering enough, and got my revenge a few weeks later when I was asked to cook a turkey for their yearly thanksgiving get together.I basted it in my own urine.


Urine a class by yourself! ;~D

Wasn't the FBI the ones investigating MLK? That isn't spying, that's an investigation. Maybe it was on bad grounds, but I doubt there is a law saying the FBI can't investigate American citizens. It's kind of their job, WHEN there is grounds to do it.

As for the JFK thing, it's no doubt true, but people were investigating MLK before JFK. They thought much of the civil rights movement was being stirred up by communists to destabalize the US. People like Stanley Levison were investigated from the 1950's all the way into the 1970's. If you ask me it had more to do with the irrational leadership of J. Edgar Hoover who we allowed to run the FBI for 50 friggin years. It boggles the mind.

As for the funeral, it's a Liberal affair, let liberals make what they want out of it. He lauded socialism, liked the ladies, was all for the idea of punitive laws favoring black people and reparations for their great-grandfather's suffering. He was one of their own, and I figure she was too. They are just icing the cake.

Like the farce that is Martin Luther King day, this show they put on about his wife is no less insulting to the untold numbers of people who were the real power behind the civil rights movement and who never get any recognition. She did have to tolerate her husband's philandering, so i guess sacrifices were made.

We shouldn't be revering MLK, we should be revering the civil rights movement as a whole, and the untold numbers of people of ALL COLORS who were intrumental in bringing it about.

Yeah, I read where Bush attended.
I bet Kanye West was skeptical, though; after all, we know how Bush doesn't care about black people.

I guess Bush wasn't made to feel very welcome, though.

I heard Coretta gave him the cold shoulder.

BADUM BUM! CHSSSSHHH!

I don't see why you would even care about this MM. In another thread you posted about Mrs. King you said;

What’s the deal about Coretta Scott King?

How have we let America fall into such a place that we “honor” someone not for what she did, but for the color of her skin?

So you don't really think she deserves much respect anyways, so why the hell would you care what goes on at her funeral?

King was a political leader and spent her life pushing a political agenda, so what better way to memorialize her than to promote some of her ideas and to point out some of the abuses of power in Washington today? I’d say it was perfectly fitting.


so by this standard it would have been ok to point out Clinton was impeached and got blowjobs in the oval office while he was a sitting President?


You're not using the same standard he did. He specifically said abuses of powere in Washington TODAY.

I must have missed all the statements that she made about how blowjobs were hurting this country.

You said she's being honored only for the color of her skin, yeah that shows that you think she's deserving of a lot of respect.

somehow this gets lost in all the political games being played.

The real heros are people like rosa parks who demanded she be treated like anyone else.

"The real heros are people like rosa parks who demanded she be treated like anyone else."


And a buttload of white people who were also abused, killed, and "spied upon" by the government because they supported the civil rights movement. How many people know their names? I'm willing to bet maybe one out of a thousand people who filed by that casket this week could name one of the civil rights workers that were killed in mississippi in 1964. Granted, they weren't married to a man who has his own national holiday.
