No second hand cigarette smoke blown in her face by nasty Republicans issue here?

Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean today issued the following statement on the passing of Dana Reeve:
"Today, I join millions of Americans in mourning the loss of Dana Reeve. Dana and Christopher Reeve were tireless advocates for people with disabilities. Their activism and passion were an inspiration to millions. Together, they sent a powerful message that Americans who fight for what they believe in can change our country.
"Reeve's courage in the face of her husband's struggles was matched by her grace in confronting her own illness. The sudden, tragic loss of such an effective champion and committed mother is made all the more painful by our thoughts of those left behind. Our hearts and prayers go out to the Reeves' children and the rest of her family.
"In this time of great sadness, we owe it to Dana Reeve to recommit ourselves to the cause she so eloquently championed. The best way to honor her life is to continue fighting to ensure that we do everything possible to realize the full promise of scientific and medical research."
Why is it that lefties can't issue a statement without using the word "fight" several times?
Oh God, the democrats may be gearing up for another Wellstone Memorial. All you embryonic stem cell researchers, better order your tuxes for the parties (err, memorial services) to come...
Personally, I'm looking forward to Ron Reagan's eulogy at her four hour funeral.
They also can't issue a condolence press release without USING the dead person for campaign purposes...
Cliche Alert! Cliche Alert!
Dreadful writing at the DNC.
Prayers for Miss Dana. I hope she went right to Heaven.
"Last year, Karl Rove hit a hidden button in his desk, and Dana became ill with cancer. Last night he pressed another, and we lost this brave woman. If you believe in life and freedom from Rove, you will give more money to the DNC."
If only we'd been smart enough to elect John Kerry, she'd be breathing today.
Dick Cheney should take 'screamin' Howard Dean hunting.

Or possibly:
"President Bush causes lung cancer. Women and minorities are affected most."
Maybe Jimmah Carter can use the occasion to attack the President as he did with Coretta Scott King's funeral.
I can already hear Hillary's staff calculating a new political move based on this upcoming memorial service for Mrs. Reeve.
Prayers for the Reeve family.
Has to be the most words he has spoken since 2000 without blaming Bush or a Republican.
Can't wait to see what kind of campaign event the libs turn her funeral into.
Surprised not to hear the words
".... and we'd have more money for stem cell research if this administration hadn't lied to get us into Iraq"
Howard Dean also commented on the passing of Kirby Puckett.
"We should all be reminded that Puckett's "RIGHT" eye was blinded by glaucoma. Just like the Right Wing in America that is blind to the needs of the people of color in this country."
Martin Luther King redux?
John Kerry was on Larry King basically saying this.
