It has EVERYTHING to do with my point on opportunitism. The examples I provided were specific in taking tragedy or disasters, and pushing a political agenda, most notably in an effort to be detrimental to the opposing party (or ideological factions, if you wish). I never stated that the GOP won't look for an opportunity to better the country, or by taking out Saddam, the globe for that matter. They should be applauded for it. I made clear it was referencing blatant political opportuntism where none should be. Taking the AZ tragedy, and using a memorial largely as a 2012 campaign jump was political opportunitism at some of its worst.
Though I have to say, the Wellstone "memorial" was even more worse
