chatting with Kubiak during the communion service.

I don't know anything about Lutherans, although I am confused why the service was there since when I hear "alter boy" I think Catholic. But, nevertheless, in a Catholic Church, it is the ultimate in disrepect to Our Lord Jesus Christ to talk during consecration and communion.

I heartily agree with PGalt in #19: very well stated comments!

They don't respect life, why should one assume that death would have any meaning for a Democrat either? That is, a death besides their petty own selves...

A lot of these kooks are so wrapped up in their own antiwar mantra that it never occurs to them that some folks disagree or that it would be inappropriate to approach family with outlandish statements. It's bad enough to come across a troll at the mall but at a funeral is beyond imagination.

This idiot needs to stop going to any functions if she is so far gone she can't discern when to keep her idiot trap shut.

They should also air the statements made by Hillary's Senate office after the incident. They said, as many here will remember, that the firemen were drunk, rude, and basically called them every name in the book.

By the way, does anyone know where there's a good working link to that video of Hillary being booed at the VH1 concert. I would love to see it again.

You left the most offensive part out.

-- According to Rhonda Goodrich, Knoll then said what continues to leave Joe Goodrich's survivors shaking their heads: "She told Joe's aunt that the (state) government was against the war."

An odd thing to say, because the state never has taken a position on the Iraq conflict. An offensive thing to say to those who knew Joseph Goodrich loved being a Marine and fighting for his country. --

Typical yankee lib pig attitude.

I would cut the old Rat some slack on this one. Visiting with 90% of the families who lost someone in the war is admirable. Sure she said something that may of been ungracious in an awkward situation, a more polite response may of served everyone better.

She and her 'people' behaved abominably.
So what else is new?

Had it been a service for one of my nephews,I would have asked her to leave in the most uncivil manner posible.If she didn't go instantly,well I guess I'd have made the evening news-picking up the old bag and carrying her out of the church.

That pix is the victim of the heavy use of Photoshop.

Didn't help.

What is it with Democrats and funerals?

I dunno, but I'm hoping they don't pop wise, and just continue on, a la the Wellstone Funerally which sealed Fritz's defeat.

Yow! Good thing I haven't had breakfast yet. Ugly, thy name is Helen.

BTW, after seeing your pics of Knoll, I suspect the photo in #12 has been heavily photoshopped and airbrushed.

It doesn't hurt for the government to show respect - the business card was over the line.
