Proving Ann Coulter's point of people using misfortune/deaths of loved ones to politicize.
Wideawake had a good post on this:

Excerpting from Wideawake:
"Compare what Lisa Beamer has done for her husband's legacy and what her neighbor Kristen Breitweiser has done for her husband's memory.
Millions of people across America know who Todd Beamer was and what he was all about, because his wife has used her celebrity to tell his story.
99.999% of the public don't even know Ron Breitweiser's first name, let alone anything about the man. "
Excellent point.
