More uses for dead Democrats...?

So another dying Democrat has apparently made a deathbed plea to advance the president's agenda?

First it was Kennedy, now Holbrooke. It's almost becoming routine. Completely unverifiable and amazingly convenient. It's shameless opportunism of the highest order to use the deaths of these people as props for your own policies. I feel for their families.

How odd is it that in death, they get more respect from the people that disagreed with them, than they do from their own party?
