Also, why is that shrew Perino still on Fox?
Thanks for the heads up.
I thought it was tomorrow....fwiw
She was a fine first lady and never held public office so I won’t denigrate her. But I think I’ll pass on the funeral.
The rapist, the side of beef(that one still makes me laugh) Ovomit and the Wookiee will be there..but the only invitation extended to the Trump’s was for FLOTUS!! The bush family are rotten globalist to the core!!
It is tomorrow.
Thanks, ELS. Accuracy matters vs. Funky headline.
Yeh I have little use for the Bush family as a whole.
Do you happen to have a link for that?

A thousand points of light. :-)
The wake was today, and people were paying respects. GW was beside his wife as people did. The funeral was tomorrow.
“Why would I want to watch the Bush matriarch’s funeral and why is this in breaking? “
To piss off that evil fat tub o’ lard who calls herself a professor from California?
Presidents don't attend First Lady funerals. When Mrs. Reagan died in 2016, both George W. Bush and Bill Clinton attended as former Presidents but Mrs. Obama represented the White House. Likewise when Betty Ford died in 2011, Mrs. Obama represented the White House and the President didn't attend. When Lady Bird Johnson died in 2007, former Presidents attended but Mrs. Bush represented the White House.
So while there is not any love lost between the Bush family and Trump, the fact that the President is not attending has nothing to do with that. It's all protocol.
Thank you for this info on First Ladys attending former First Ladys funerals. I had not known this.
heh heh heh
Good point. Seriously. That was one disgusting person.
Are you certain they disinvited Donald Trump?
Just out of curiosity, where are the SS or police hidden in this church? You know there has to be tons of them on watch.

They are not meant to be seen unless in uniform.
Sitting President does not go to a former First Lady’s funeral.
