For both groups, they never did anything wrong, it's always the other guy's fault, they overlook their own failings to a degree that is truly incredible, and their relationship with god translates into divine right...no matter the real-world result or how far against "the Word" their actions really go.

That is quite a reach dude. It strikes me as a problem with some from the Left that it does not occur to them in the slightest that this would be considered a distasteful display. I thought Mr Bush behaved quite well, I would have likely walked out if slightly veiled attacks were aimed at me at such an event. After all, he does not need to get re-elected, and the Democrat:Republican ratio was minimum 80:20, probably closer to 90:10, not like he would offend anyone that had any plans to vote for him anyway.
He did not though, and the Left would not understand why. (Evidenced by their use of any event to further their interests, sort of like your attempt to turn a thread about a funeral into one about how neo-cons are like islamic terrorists, or Nazis, what day is it Nazis?) Simple respect for the woman and the somber tone the event warranted. You can sing her favorite song, or have her favorite band at the wake, if you want to do the "Celebration of Life" thing, which I also think would be appropriate. I have always felt the sorrow you feel when a good person dies is more selfishly motivated; you will have to do without them
