1. Are you listening to this b.s. in the House? They are using Lantos'
memorial service to garner sympathy and wag their fingers at the Dems. How low can they go? What do they possibly hope to accomplish with this?

3. Will there be any media attention and if so, will there be comparison to the uproar over
Paul Wellstone's memorial?

8. Clarification?
How can they try to use the Lantos memorial to garner sympathy for themselves? I know about their (words fail me) calling a vote during the memorial. How does that make them the victim?

9. They aren't. This is CYA. They are stealing the Dem's victimhood.
It is a classic case of GOP call your enemy what you are. If the GOP made a mockery of the Lantos funeral, then you claim that the Dems made you make a mockery of Lantos' funeral. Like the press people that attacked Bill Clinton in the 90s claiming that he made them do it with his all powerful penis.

7. Nothing more pitiful than using a dead man for political gain. "Do it for Lantos!!!"
Edited on Thu Feb-14-08 03:31 PM by McCamy Taylor
If they say "Lantos would have wanted you to respect the president and give the telecoms immunity" I am gonna shoot my TV.

10. Do not act violently toward an innocent machine. Don't kill the messenger.
Get rid of those who produce the message. BAMN!
