Wellstonizing Rosa Parks' funeral!

[Tennessee Gal]

From Hesiod:

There is a move afoot for the rightwingers to try and copy their propaganda campaign waged against Democrats after the Paul Wellstone Memorial. Only this time they are trying to use the Rosa Parks memorial and funeral services.

Specifically, they are claiming that Mrs. Parks family were treated badly and prevented from saying good-bye to her by all of the diginitaries and politicians. (All of whom, of course, are Democrats they love to hate like Jesse Jackson and Bill and Hillary Clinton).

The rumors are getting started over at The Corner, as Jesse at Pandagon notes.

We need to nip this shit in the bud (excuse my harsh language).

They need to be slapped down hard.

3. They just don't want people to start taking the voting issue seriously.

Jesse Jackson and different people brought that up. It was appropriate to raise that issue at that funeral under the circumstances.

5. Gee, who didn't see this coming? I thought to myself while watching

that the repugs were going to 'Wellstone' this. And well, here we go.
