Coretta Scott King Funeral

Once again, liberals and black race baiting politicians prove they have no respect for the dead, nor the living if you disagree with them politically. I understand Bush attended. Pity he had to endure the likes of some there allegedly to honor Coretta Scott King. There was no honor in the way some from the Left used the event.

President Carter was indeed right.

The Kings were wiretap victims of a Democrat president's policy gone wild.

In fact, TWO Democrat presidents- Kennedy and Johnson.

I watched the entire funeral today and for the exception of a very few it was the most
beautiful funeral I think I have ever seen. I was touched.
The jerks that tried to turn it in to a political thing werE overshadowed by the
beauty of the rest of the funeral. It lasted 5 hours and 45 minutes. There 5 minutes here and there with the left jabs did not take away from the message.
I will not forget it for quite a while to come.

These people have no shame. They are bunch of jerks. The funeral was nice.
God Bless PRESIDENT BUSH !

What a lack of class for the jerks that used the funeral to make a political statement. President Bush shot right back at them though for that beautiful, stirring, and heart-felt tribute he gave to Mrs. King. Anyone will be able to see the contrast between the two......
Thank goodness for President Bush and a BIG sigh of relief that it's not President Kerry!

Are you all insane?!!! The Bushies were making light of the whole affair. Mama Bush clearly didn't want to be there... the whole thing was a political mess--for the right!

It wasn't until Clinton got up and made it serious and respectful.

Live in your delusional world if you like, and you obvioulsy do, but if you want to know what the people in attendence actually thought... just listen to their relative responses to the different presidents that spoke.

Besides, why *should* they be happy with GW when he's spying on Americans, cutting $13 billion out of education and putting forth a travesty of a "budget" that is somehow okay to have $423 billion defecit for this year!

Yes, just keep blessing Bush (idiots need simpathy)... he is sure to get you (and the rest of us) very close to your God very soon at this rate.

What did you hear ?

"What a lack of class for the jerks that used the funeral to make a political statement."

Dr King did it. What a class of jerks thinks that you can't mention that war is bad at a pacifists funeral because some powerful man is there?

[Miracle Hemel]

Of all the presidents that were there I personally think the Clintons said what should have been said by a politician and it was sincere. Bush was just there to smooth things over and get a little spot light although he was there to pay respects to Mrs. King. It was not etiquette at all for the Bushies to make jokes about old times with each other better yet the whole war thing and such had nothing to do with the funeral; those are things that should be discussed at an appropiate time which was clearly not the funeral! They showed no respect for Dr. and Mrs. Kings' mourning. How pathetic. Seems like Carter and Clinton were the only ones in the presidential crowd that had any common sense.

The Kings were wiretap victims of J. Edgar Hoover, as were the Kennedys.

Hillary Clinton was on Wal-Mart's board of directors

WARD HARKAVY, VILLAGE VOICE, 2000 - Twice in three days last week, Hillary
Rodham Clinton basked in the adulation of cheering union members. Her
record
of supporting collective bargaining, however, is considerably worse than
wobbly. Pity the thousands of unionists at last Tuesday's state Democratic
convention who chanted her name, and the hundreds of retired Teamsters at
Thursday's luncheon in midtown who had interrupted their Founder's Day meal

to hear the corporate litigator turned union-loving Democrat deliver a
campaign speech.

They would have dropped their forks if they had heard that Hillary served
for six years on the board of the dreaded Wal-Mart, a union-busting
behemoth. If they had learned the details of her friendship with Wal-Mart,
they might have lost their lunches. . . In 1986, when Hillary was first
lady
of Arkansas, she was put on the board of Wal-Mart. Officials at the time
said she wasn't filling a vacancy. In May 1992, as Hubby's presidential
campaign heated up, she resigned from the board of Wal-Mart. Company
officials said at the time that they weren't going to fill her vacancy.

So what the hell was she doing on the Wal-Mart board? According to press
accounts at the time, she was a show horse at the company's annual meetings

when founder Sam Walton bused in cheering throngs to celebrate his
non-union
empire, which is headquartered in Arkansas, one of the country's poorest
states. According to published reports, she was placed in charge of the
company's "green" program to protect the environment. But nobody got
greener
than Sam Walton and his family. For several years in the '80s, he was
judged
the richest man in America by Forbes magazine. . .

Was Hillary the voice of conscience on the board for American and foreign
workers? Contemporary accounts make no mention of that. They do describe
her
as a "corporate litigator" in those days, and they mention, speaking of
environmental matters, that she also served on the board of Lafarge, a
company that, according to a press account, once burned hazardous fuels to
run its cement plants. . .

The Clintons depended on Wal-Mart's largesse not only for Hillary's regular

payments as a board member but for travel expenses on Wal-Mart planes and
for heavy campaign contributions to Bill's campaigns there and nationally.
.
.

Meanwhile, Wal-Mart's first lady, who also benefited from Wal-Mart stock,
solicits support from union workers. Which makes her words to the elderly
Teamsters last week especially poignant: "You can count on me to stand up
for the right to collectively bargain!" Right on, sister!

"I swear, these people have no shame. Here they were--at a FUNERAL, no less!--and they can't set aside their hatred of Bush to pay respect to this lady"

This lady, Coretta Scott King, Dr. Martin Luther Kings wife, carried on her husbands legacy of political activism, so how fitting of a tribute was it for her funeral, a nationaly televised funeral, to have political activism take center stage? very fitting

there was the time for paying respects to her, but she would have wanted reverend lowerey to reach out to all the nation in order to get a message across, and not the bias opinion of regular edited t.v. like the rerund showings of her funeral that were editing by almost every station, to make bush look all good and innocent by cutting out all anti bush rhetoric. Bush is a screw up, he needs to admit his mistakes, take it like a man, and not send thousands of young american teenagers to their death for non-existent weapons of mass destruction.

"The jerks that tried to turn it in to a political thing werE overshadowed by the beauty of the rest of the funeral."

It was a "politcal thing", thats what corettas life was about, she carried on Dr. Kings legacy of political activism, oh, and bush laughed at the funeral, so who was the real jerk? It was George W. Bush, who laughs during a funeral. Im guessing its not the people honoring her by carrying on her and her husbands legacy.
