Even after the passing of former first lady Barbara Bush, agents with the Secret Service reportedly remained by her side.

As Bush’s casket lay in St. Martin's Episcopal Church in Texas, she was flanked by agents who were among the members of her personal detail, local outlet KTRK reported.

This, as thousands of people paid their respects Friday to the wife of former President George H.W. Bush during a public viewing. A funeral was held for her on Saturday.

Secret Service agents were going to stay with her until she was buried, the outlet said.

A former Secret Service agent and member of Bush’s detail, Thom Bolsch, spoke to the outlet and described her as “one of the most gracious people we’ve ever protected.”

“She went out of her way to make us feel like part of the Bush family,” he continued. “It was just a wonderful relationship we had.”

He or she is too ornery to die, she’ll be around a long time.

High Horse simply following GOD’s word:

1 Peter 2:1
Verse Concepts
Therefore, putting aside all malice and all deceit and hypocrisy and envy and all slander,

Titus 1:10-11
For there are many rebellious men, empty talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision, who must be silenced because they are upsetting whole families, teaching things they should not teach for the sake of sordid gain.

Titus 3:2
Verse Concepts
to malign no one, to be peaceable, gentle, showing every consideration for all men.

James 1:26
If anyone thinks himself to be religious, and yet does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this man’s religion is worthless.

Psalm 10:7
His mouth is full of curses and deceit and oppression; Under his tongue is mischief and wickedness.

James 4:11
Do not speak against one another, brethren He who speaks against a brother or judges his brother, speaks against the law and judges the law; but if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge of it.

Proverbs 13:3
The one who guards his mouth preserves his life; The one who opens wide his lips comes to ruin.

James 1:26
If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man’s religion vain.

I could go own. Now can you show me were we are directed to speak ill of one another?

WOW. Just WOW!

Did you even read my post? You didn’t answer any of my questions for you and then you reply with unbelievable drivel. The most important which was how much time SHALL transpire before it is appropriate for us normal folk to speak the truth of the dead.

The verses you included show that you either spent no time responding, or you are a complete rube and you (incorrectly) thought replying using random and off topic scripture references would bolster your weak and improper position.

My responding to what you wrote using about more than this leaves me feeling as though I am conversing with either a child, or a mentally challenged adult.

A further response would do nothing to educate you and would further waste my time. Besides it’s not civil to debate an imbicil anywhere. And I have enough “manners and civility” to avoid such.

Good day. May you roast in the stew you have made.

Your response is proof of my position that speaking ill especially of someone who has done you no harm is evil and Christian and shows a complete lack of understanding of the principles of civility, manners and decorum.

I hope that its clear enough for you.

The anger in your post clearly shows I was very close to or right on the mark. You are a person filled with hate, hate so deep you even feel the need to heap it on the dead. Sadly someday unless you change it will eat you up.

You have such fuzzy logic.

So am I to understand that it’s perfectly ok for you to pass judgment on me (and it’s a false judgment), however I’m evil because I support the idea that talking FACTS isn’t speaking ill of anyone? If ANYONE supported (she is now dead) evil or falsehoods we have a person whom we’re could discuss if you’re willing, however you have said it’s not Allowed. I asked, too soon? And you want to go Biblical route? Get over yourself.

You need more time studying the meaning of the text, instead of attempting to school those of us who have seats at the adult table.

Your response is further proof my assessment was correct, you have no depth in text, nor its teachings. Many of the verses you cited supports our position. You don’t even understand that portion of this lesson. I refuse to attempt to educate you. Master says something re: pearls and swine.

You are a scholar in your own mind and those you have successfully sold a bridge. I don’t drink koolaid. I dust my feet of you.
