Question Riddle Me This, Riddle Me That...

I saw this riddle online, and I wanted to see who could figure out the answer.

A woman's mother dies and at her funeral there is an unknown, unrelated man hanging around. She goes up to him and asks him what he was doing there, he says, "I'm sorry to have disturbed you, but I like going to funerals." The woman and the man begin talking and she starts to like him, so she gives him her number, and he agrees to call her the next day. Three weeks later the man still hadn't called, so the woman killed her sister. Why?

First one to get the correct answer will get a special treat. So hurry up and put your thinking caps on!!!

Easy enough. The man in question was Goodspeak. During her conversation with him, the woman became incurably infected with Goody's brand of logical reasoning (as well as falling deeply in love with his studly self). When he failed to telephone her, she became distraught and struck out at the nearest Republican, her sister, assuming that person had to be the root of all her problems.

The woman was in a terrorist sleeper cell. The man was her handler. The code word was "tomorrow". Her sister was the President of the United States!

Duh. To get a corpse. The man said he liked going to funerals, so the dame kills her sister so as to arrange another meeting with the mug. Typical.
