In an Earlier Story...

Rosa said this monument, clearly shown on Mars, was built by Bush as a tribute to himself.

Hey ROSA! - You are part of the irrelevant, old Dinosaur Media. Shut Up!

why didn't Jimmy quit the Dem. party in the South in the 40's, 50's or 60's when it was a demonstrably racist organization that would have made the Concerned Alumni of Princeton look like a sewing circle, even if the calumny cast on CAP in the Alito hearings were true? And why didn't Lowry take him to task for his failure to do so?

You know its funny how Jimmy wound up slapping his own party while he was flapping his yap. He mentioned the wiretapping of Coretta & Martin Luther King as an insult to George W.s wiretapping of terrorists. But what he failed to mention was that wiretapping was done by the Kennedy administration - HIS OWN PARTY!! I guarantee all the mourners there, while applauding his remarks, were probably thinking "Hey, Kennedy tapped their phones...but wait! He was a Democrat so that makes it ok."

Hey Rosa - Mrs. King deserved to have civil people say civil things about her and her husband. Instead, she got a bunch of ass clowns.

When Bush came to Maine I waded through the dummybprotestors and their obscene signs and chants. Some pubbie kids got together and had a small counter-protest.

The next day I read about it in the paper, and I couldn't believe that the reporter was at the same event - all he wrote about was how the pubbies were rude and obnoxious.

I wrote him back saying, what about the 'rats? How about their obscene behavior? THAT didn't merit mention?

What obscene behavior? he asks me.

"Well, the 10 foot sign at the entrance to the rally that said F*** Bush?"

"Oh, yeah ... now that you mention it, I noticed that," he said.

... but the point is the reporter SAW NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT.

It was only some clean-cut Republican kids chanting "Four More Years" that he found to be offensive.

Well, four more years to you, chowderhead.

In other news, grass begins growing, blames Bush for global warming. Women and minorities hardest hit. Film at 11.

Nothing like the MSM copy-and-paste journalism.

"I saw nothing uncivil about the remarks..."

Nothing is crass if it serves the revolution.

Nothing "uncivil"? I guess there is nothing uncivil about abusing the house of god and pimping the legacy of the lady of the civil rights movement in order to attack the President who came to show his respects. Liberals+Morality=ROFLMAO

O'Reilly gets it right. There is a lot of liberal hypocrisy at work in the media. But the President comes out ahead in gravitas by not using the funeral to attack his opponents.

The blabber mouths at the microphone didn't have one tenth the courage or character MS. King.They don't want to point out courage or character because they can't stand up to it.

The reason that the President did not do that is because he has class unlike Jimah Carter. In my humble opinion is only a bitter and quarterback president.
People who applauded him should be drawn and quartered but they themselves were expecting these crackpots to blame Bush for everything.

Unlike his predecessor, Mr. Bush has to much respect for the office he holds to get into the gutter with slime. He has some class and understands that a funeral honoring someone isn't the place to slam anyone.
The Dems look frustrated and don't understand how theis"stupid cowboy" has befuddled them for so long.
Maybe after leaving office Mr. Bush will come out swinging while campaigning for fellow Repubs. And he will continue kicking Dems butts.

Do they know what Shari'a law will do to homosexuals and atheists and progressives?

Probably, but they don't care right now. They're doing the old "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" bit, and their numero uno enemy is the good old USA.

And when the Muzzis slaughter them to the last person it will be too freaking late.
