"All the better for him to campaign - which is the only reason he was there."

And if he wasn't there you'd be jumping all over him for that. C'mon..a great man died...and he suffered terribly in the last 10 years of his life. Stop making this a political event.

"His very presence was grandstanding - and nauseating."

No, it wasn't...he paid his respects. Lets move on here.
