Al Franken: Reflections on the Wellstone Memorial and the King Funeral - Yahoo! News: "To this day, there are still a lot of people, including Democrats, who've bought the right wing line on the Wellstone Memorial. Specifically, that it was a cynical, premeditated political event that included endless booing of Republican politicians who came to pay their respects to their fallen colleague. I wrote a pretty detailed account of the Wellstone Memorial in my book Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them, and nothing could be further from the truth. "
Franken deconstructs the entire Wellstone funeral tale and adds some speculation about the King funeral.
