Are people so self absorbed with thier own agendas that they can't even get thru a funeral without trying to bash someone politically?

Today's memorial service for civil rights activist Coretta Scott King -- billed as a "celebration" of her life -- turned suddenly political as one former president took a swipe at the current president, who was also lashed by an outspoken black pastor!

The outspoken Rev. Joseph Lowery, co-founder of Southern Christian Leadership Conference, ripped into President Bush during his short speech. "She extended Martin's message against poverty, racism and war. She deplored the terror inflicted by our smart bombs on missions way afar. We know now that there were no weapons of mass destruction over there" Lowery said. "But Coretta knew, and we know," Lowery continued, "That there are weapons of misdirection right down here," he said, nodding his head toward the row of presidents past and present. "For war, billions more, but no more for the poor!" The crowd again cheered wildly.

What a dick! No freakin' decorum whatsoever... This shows what a lowlife scumbag this fuck is... and he gets away with it hiding behind race and religion...

Former President Jimmy Carter later swung at Bush as well, not once but twice. As he talked about the Kings, he said: "It was difficult for them then personally with the civil liberties of both husband and wife violated as they became the target of secret government wiretaps."

Later, Carter said Hurricane Katrina showed that all are not yet equal in America. Some black leaders have blamed Bush for the poor federal response, and rapper Kayne West said that Bush "hates" black people.

FORMER President Carter, you are an asshole... Your ridiculous ramblings show the failing of your mental processes. Don't you realize the black community hates you too? You rich, white, peanut eating douchebag...

I don't really know what Mrs King did in her life except being MLK's wife, but a funeral should be the last place that politics should be brought up...
