Once Again The Libs Play Political Limbo "How Low Can You Go"

At the funeral of Corretta Scott King, the Rev. Joseph Lowery and President Jimmy Carter took the opportunity to add some political spin into their Eulogies. Joseph Lowery got the crowd on its feet with this piece of trite.

We know now there were no weapons of mass destruction over there. But Coretta
knew and we knew that there were weapons of misdirection right down here.
Millions without health insurance, poverty abound, for war billions more,
but no more for the poor.

While Jimmy Carter took a more relevant approach.

It was difficult for them [the King family] then personally with the civil
liberties of both husband and wife violated as they became the target of
secret government wiretaps.

Needless to say, I am not impressed nor am I shocked. It is not unusual for the Libs to play on peoples emotions during a time of mourning. Pandering is the Dems only form of recourse and these two turned this funeral into a Democratic convention. Will it work? Will it arouse the base and give them something to rally around?....Ummmm? I am going to wait on that one.
