It's In The PA Paper, So It MUST Be True...Right?
Lord, I hope not. I don't see how anyone could be that offensive. And if it is, there are no words to describe the outrage.
Lt. gov. crashed Marine's funeral, kin say
The family of a Marine who was killed in Iraq is furious with Lt. Gov. Catherine Baker Knoll for showing up uninvited at his funeral this week, handing out her business card and then saying "our government" is against the war.
GTFO. I still can't believe it.
Swill Salute to Michelle Malkin.

Small update: The governor will send written apologies to the family. I hope he slaps the bitch around a little, too.

What do you, Ken, by slapping the bitch around a little? She needs a good thrashing with a horse whip.

YOu know, that's all well and good, but the funeral's OVER, their son is DEAD and SHE caused immeasureable heartache piled on top of what has to be the most crushing blow a parent can imagine. I'd sue HER and, since she came in her capacityas a state representitive, the state for emotional suffering, cruelty, blah blah blah. Let the state spend time and money groveling and finding ways to say 'I'm sorry', even if (I'm sure) it basically unwinnable. A lot more people would hear about it that way too. As a grieving mother, I'd have nothing but time.

If I recall one of many loopy conversations correctly, those in the know admit freely that our dear, PA Lt. Gov. has lost her mind. Apparently she's well on her way to complete senility.
Plenty of shenanigans in our fine commowealth to keep the presses humming.

THS, I'd be all for suing the LG in her personal capacity, but a suit against the state would essentially punish the taxpayers of PA rather than her. If were the Governor, I'd fire her, or if PA law doesn't allow for that, demand her immediate resignation, but I wouldn't hold my breath expecting anything like that from Ed Rendell.

Sorry Jeff, my bad, strictly a typo. What I meant to type was "beat the rotten bitch to a bloody pulp and feed her rotting carcass to the buzzards", but it came out wrong.

That's better, Ken. I thought you had gone soft, or something.
