The family of a Marine who was killed in Iraq is furious with Lt. Gov. Catherine Baker Knoll for showing up uninvited at his funeral this week, handing out her business card and then saying "our government" is against the war.

Asked to comment on Goodrich's complaints about Knoll's conduct at the funeral, the aide said that "would be inappropriate."

Knoll's behavior was inappropriate--no, absolutely outrageous. I am incensed at this--I had no idea this had happened, and it took place in a church not 3 miles from my home. She will definitely hear from me.

The Lt. Governor went to this soldier's funeral uninvited and handed out a business card saying "this government is against the war"? If I was a member of that family, I wouldn't rest until this person was forced to resign.

Whew the demo party of dean/hillary/knoll/rendell are now crashing funerals.

These people have no shame.

Also notice the putz-gazette reported it on the day of the least circulation, Saturday

The madness continues. I keep thinking it cannot get worse. It does. Shameless and crazy is no way to get through life. And yet they do. I'm just glad they have no guns on their side.

Did you find it strange that her party affiliation isn't mentioned in the article? For out-of-staters, wasn't clear that she was a Democrat. You'd think they'd have mentioned it.

I would have dragged her to the door and literally kicked her in the @ss as I shoved her out. Let her try to arrest me for assault and publicly explain why...

I think a couple of good Marines should have "escorted" her to the door and then thrown her out it! And preferbly down the steps on her,...something or her face.

The "liberals" need a lesson, a physical lesson.

I hope when it's her funeral, that someone will return the favor.

She said she is going to seek an answer from Gov. Ed Rendell's administration if it opposes the fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Fast Eddie Rendell was the one who fought like hell to prevent military absentee ballots from being counted in the last election. He backed off once his scheme got some public attention.
