Probably because she isn’t really his aunt.

[glorgau]

and talked about raising money to send her body back to Kenya....

Should have been done years ago while she was still alive and living in the US illegally.

During all of those non-votes that b. Hussien O'zero racked up in the Illinois Senate, was it also golfing trips he favored back then?

[hoosiermama]

He must go to the golf course during times others attend religious gathering cause he does a lot of praying there!

Hey NYT, just for sh*ts & giggles pretend for a moment this in 2007 and the deceased GW Bush’s aunt.

[Kenny Bunk]

Of course, the multi-millionaire faux-POTUS chipped in with funeral expenses? Or perhaps, reimbursing the Commonwealth for the hundreds of thousands in welfare benefits received by the illegal alien during her long illegal residence in our country?

Had he seen fit to attend the funeral, he would of course, been photographed with alleged family members, reminding the world again of his rather mysterious provenance. RIP, Aunt Zeituni.

Real classy. Anybody recall the closing days of the Bush Administration when he couldn't be bothered to to attend transitional briefings or even bother to show his predecessor ordinary courtesies?

Contrast his total lack of class to Ronald Reagan who asked his incompetent predecessor to be the first to greet our returning hostages from Iran, in effect letting Carter take public credit for cleaning up a mess of his own creation even though most of the country knew better.

Six summer visits to the Vineyard and he never invited her once, letting her swelter in Boston.

[ssaftler]

Hmmm, I wonder if anyone had Aunt Zeituni in Howie Carr’s death pool?

[ozarkgirl]

For once I agree with him. If he went, it would disturb the funeral big time and we’d all be saying what a narcissistic person he is - making his aunt’s death all about him.

Maybe he sent flowers? :)

[bkopto]

She was no longer of any use to Bath House, so what’s the big deal?

[Vendome]

” closest relatives gathered her belongings at her nearby apartment”

Huh?

[Zuse]

B0 Soebarkah doesn’t do funerals. He has a vice-president for that.

He didn’t even acknowledge the passing of his sister in Indonesia.
Granny Dunham got the “Big Lebowski” sendoff in Hawaii.

[Uncle Chip]

That’s par for the course —

[BenLurkin]

[Iron Munro]

Obama didn't attend his white grandmother's funeral in Hawaii when she died back in 2008 either.

[ScottinVA]

He sure is a heartless bitch, isn’t he?

Everything... 24/7/365... is all about him.

With all the crap going on in the world the NY Slimes and the Weekly Standard have to dwell on a story that Bam didn’t go to his aunt’s funeral. Quite frankly who gives a RAT’S @$$?

[livius]

Tacky, tacky, tacky. But that’s Obama in a nutshell.
