BBC used her death to cite what a great humanitarian she was.

At excite new, well, they referenced the fact that after GW Bush talked, a lot of other speakers spoke out against him, using the beliefs of Mrs. King as a starting point.
While I normally enjoy any situation that taunts George W., I feel saddened. I mean, people were there to pay tribute to her, not bitch at the president. On one hand, I feel that Mrs. King would want people to speak out against injustice, the fact that it was at her funeral just seems rather crass. I don't know. What do you think?
Oh, and today it is 72 degrees in SF. If it continues in SF pattern, it will be 56 tomorrow.
