In a move that many believe is disrespectful and unprecedented, President Obama did not attend the funeral of conservative Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, making him the only president in U.S. history to miss the funeral of a sitting supreme court justice.

Instead of attending the funeral, the preisdent and first lady opted to attend Scalia’s wake, stopping by the casket for approximately two minutes before leaving early. While Obama did pay his respects, the brevity of the whole affair has led to questions of Obama’s sincerity.

Furthermore, it has been noted that Obama made great efforts to attend certain funerals, while specifically dodging those of conservative heroes. In addition to Obama missing the funeral of Justice Scalia, he also missed the funerals of Margaret Thatcher and Chris Kyle.

Obama is quite simply THE most vile, evil, odious sh*tbag this country has ever had the misfortune of allowing to set foot in the White House.

He had work to do, picking out his nominee to replace Justice Scalia.

I remember seeing Gorbachev at Reagan’s funeral and thinking how great it was that men that apposed each other could still respect each other. Obama lacks the class of either of them.

He went to Sheets Byrd’s and that person from S. Carolina. He broke into “Amazing Grace.”

At least he knows where he’s not welcome. Good riddance to the lying traitor BO.

I would have been more offended if BO had stayed around and ruined the memorial for everyone else who loved Scalia.

Upon seeing this headline my first thought was that Obama pulled the old test of sticking a pin in the corpse.

Do people not understand that Obama despises all conservatives and republicans? He is a leftist fanatic, as shallow and petty as they come. And he may be a good self promoter but he’s also an idiot.
