Coretta Scott King

I'm not surprised that Republicans are expressing outrage. I'm disappointed, sure, but not surprised. These are the people politicizing the funeral, not Jimmy Carter and company who spoke in honor of a great woman and her sacrifice for the country.

But screw the eulogies, right? Republicans have to try and score political points and rally the troops. And what better way to do that then point out that Coretta Scott King disagreed with Republican policies! She and her husband are boogeymen to the right, bringing about changes that some didn't want to hear and other still might not be willing to accept. Screw the memory of this brave woman and her struggles, because Republicans want to dishonor the funeral and turn it into political theater.

I'm just not sure I can blog about much tonight, this is so ridiculous. I guess the moral of the story is, to avoid outrage from the right, never speak ill of any of their policies or ideas.
