There are so many people in this country who even after the no weapons of mass destruction, even after the fiasco of Hurrican Katrina, illegal wiretapping that directly violates the Constitution, soooo many people still buy into George Bush's BS. I applaud the Democrats for finally taking some initiative and pointing out his mistakes, and the parallels to Coretta King, RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIS ARROGANT SMIRKING FACE.

Oh and FYI whoever said "they murder the unborn" I hate to mention it but even if abortions were "illegal" rich women would still be able to afford the procedure from their doctor. Banning abortion only takes away the clinics, which mean people will go back to alleys and coat hangers. Yes, in a perfect world it would be nice if everyone only had sex when they wanted to make a baby, but surprise, doesn't work that way.

Now you Republicans quit your little whining about Correta's funeral and do what you elected Bush to do in the first place, BRING THIS NEW YORKER BIN LADIN'S HEAD ON A PLATE

At the beginning of the service Bishop Long said it was a celebration of the life of Mrs. King. A celebration is a range of various emotions.

Now regardless of some of yall color, dont jump on the bandwagon and said it all the democrats' faults and we don't know how to act at a funeral?
That is a pretty petty attack on those who chose to laugh and clap and smile or weep...

Please there is a time to laugh and there is a time to cry and there is a time to think and there is a time to rememberance..

That funeral have all the emotions involved..

Sure some of the remarks were out of order but hey the 1st Amendement gives us the right to speak. Folks gonna be upset but it was done because they were facting the majority of American's feeling.

I sure hope that folks understand why it so we need to vote.. because Mr. King and Mrs. King marched so we could have that opportunity to vote without harassment. And keep in mind that Voter Act is up for renewal in 2007. Bush could have hint he was gonna sign it without a problem.

Also some of the folks' were pretty aggravated by the Sercet Service's overaggressiveness and lack of cooridination with the Dekalb's Police Forces and New Birth Security force. It one thing to said the church holds 10,000 but it is wrong to lie to say the church was full to max and that wasnt the case at all. Yall act like we dont know how to act at a church!

Yes President Bush is human too but he causes the division between the parties by not going to the NAACAP group. He choose to listen to his so call boys. Hmm where DeLay and that other cat now? J A I L? I dont see the REPUBLICAN PARTY holding a freedom march to get them out of jail. YA REAP WHAT YA SOW!!!

The reason Clinton got the loudest ovation because the man came clean after the fact he lie while he was in office. Shoot if it wasnt for the FDR rule Clinton would still be in the White house and we wouldnt have to go through 9/11. His wife doesnt seem to want to run.. but if she does she better pick a good VP...

Mrs. King have a legacy that need to be continue not only by her kids but by us regardless of our color.

Yall focus too much time on the small stuff..Bush did give a very nice speech about Mrs. King but he could have taken the initiative to save his butt...he could have said i am going to ask Congress to print a coin with the likeness of Mrs. King's face...i am going to authorized the US POST OFFICE to print stamps with the likeness of Mrs. King.. I am going to ask Congress to create a federal holiday for Mrs. King...He have the opportunity to save face....... but nooooo he gave his speech and it was nice but I was thinking come on Mr. President are you going to just a tribute??? why not say a plan of action to help continue Mrs. King's legacy...shoot he could have include $12 million dollars in the budget to go toward the King Center with some stipulations attach to it...

DONT LET MRS. KING's LIVING LEGACY BE IN VAIN...

I am not going to judge base on what he said or she said.. but I am going to keep the dream alive.

As for Malcolm X's daugther.. wow her testimony brought the attention back to Mrs. King's passing.. I was really touch because I didnt know that the two men's family were close like that...

NONVIOLENCE IS THE ANSWER TO OUR PROBLEMS..

"An injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere!"

Honestly I think Mr. president Bush is a good guy but unfortunately he is surround with people with their own hidden agenda and self-serving motives... If he didnt come to the funeral the Republican would blame him for 2008...but his attendance was sincere.. but hopefully he will save face and grace with a turnaround for the next 2 years...

We need to start changing TODAY...

MORE JOBS IN AMERICA

MORE OPPORTUNITES IN AMERICA

BETTER EDUCATION IN AMERICA

BETTER HEALTH IN AMERICA

EQUAL PAY FOR EVERYONE IN AMERICA

BECAUSE A DREAM WITHOUT ACTION IS JUST A FANTASY!

AMERICA IS SUPPOSE TO BE THE GREATEST NATION ON THE PLANET IN THE UNIVERSE...

WE NEED TO START GOING FORWARD not BACKWARD and STOP BICKERING AND MAKE PEACE AND WORK TOGETHER TO A BETTER DAY FOR US AND FOR OUR FUTURE GENERATIONS TO COME!

I'm afraid I don't understand the comparison. Newspaper editorial pages are, by design, places to express political views. Funerals are not.

Had the Reagan funeral been turned into a vehicle to bash Democrats, I would have objected, too.

As Atlanta readies for Coretta Scott King's funeral Tuesday, police brace for Fred Phelps and member...

Funny, isn't it, how one's principles change with the situation: "respect for another's faith" isn't grounds for not publishing an offensive cartoon but "respect for a funeral" is grounds for restricting the content of the eulogies.

Would I have published the cartoon in Denmark if it had been my call? I don't know. Did I like the speeches at King's funeral? Yes - but then my feelings about Bush are definitely not printable.

Still, I must point out that double and triple standards are common in the political and blogosphere these days. I suppose this is psychologically normal, but it is also incredibly depressing.

Funny, I was thinking it's hardly a blip on the radar compared to the fact that the president - last I checked - just finished successfully nominating TWO supreme court justices! Boo-yah!

Funny, too, that the Dems are going to make such a big issue out of the wiretap nonsense that the budget will not make big news - and the budget is probably more important in the long run.

It is no suprise that the GOP is desperatly seeking non-issues like this to divert attention from the war in Iraq, budget disaster, corruption scandal & so on & so on.

Greetings, loyal minions. Your Maximum Leader is beginning to feel better. He was going to write that he is "feeling human" again, but as we all know being a conservative negates one's humanity... Or so it would seem after listening......

Oh, yeah. Like JFK and his brother Teddy? Or LBJ, who signed the civil rights act and promptly sent a lot of youths off to Vietnam. Or Richard Nixon, who ... well, you know, or was it Ford? Carter? Reagan.

Just who are you talking about "decent" people in the White House. Every administration has its warts. Inferring that the people who work in the white house are not "decent" as past administrations is assinine and shows how little you know about the topic you're addressing. Grow up.

The King family chose the speakers to speak at the funeral and obviously they represent her views and feelings.

People ought to be ashamed of themselves for turning this into politics as usual.
