Both are distasteful, but I don't begrudge others personal opinions and won't call them on it, that's between them and those that disagree, it affects none of us in any real way, I find using the dead as a political tool to be the most heinous of behaviors though, and it's chilling, if they did succeed in using Sen. Kennedy's death as a call to UHC then our taxes go up and our healthcare goes down, it affects us all, and worse yet, it will have worked and thus further this particular barbaric and classless behavior.
I think that was equally disgusting to be honest, and reserve the same judgement, the dead should never be used as a means to an end, no matter their stance on the issue, it's a very bad card to play. I think we can agree on the timing, but I have to disagree with you on the issue overall.
