Bush funeral: Reconciliation and civility Update: Except for Hillary
American Thinker ^ | 5 Dec, 2018 | Monica Showalter

Posted on 12/05/2018 10:43:25 AM PST by MtnClimber

Update from Thomas Lifson: In contrast to the politeness of everyone else, Hillary Clinton refused to acknowledge the arrival and greeting of President and Mrs. Trump as they joined the other presidents sitting in the front row of the George H.W. Bush funeral at the National Cathedral. President Trump leaned over his wife to shake hands with President and Mrs. Obama, who graciously reciprocated. Bill Clinton, sitting on the other side of Michelle Obama, did not reach out to shake hands, but at least looked in the direction of President Trump. But not Hillary Clinton. The woman defeated by Donald Trump stared straight ahead, refusing to acknowledge the arrival of the president of the Unmited States only a few feet away. Neither a glance nor a nod broke the frozen expression of anger on her visage.

Oh, there’ll be plenty of people there.

Just not the kind we would like to hang out with.

Frankly... I’m LOVING it...!!!

She wakes up every day with Trump in her head... and Slick Willy’s grin.

Trump needs to learn to quit taking the bait.

He doesn’t have to and it doesn’t help him when he does.

Probably my biggest problem with him.

I was watching - in this case, I think it’s just a matter of the rest of the former presidents/wives being out of reach. To shake hands with BJ & his wicked witch Trump/Clintons would have had to practically been sprawled over The On and his Moose’s laps.
I’m not outraged, I didn’t expect it to be a gladhanded kiss-fest,anyway.

I have to say, I am not a big “tear up” kind of guy but W.’s eulogy brought a few to my eyes.

What else should we expect from a woman who was not even gracious enough to drag herself over to the Javits Center to thank the thousands of volunteers who busted their arses to try and get her elected?

He did good. The other speakers did a nice job, too.

The lack of civility is the country’s fault, not Hillary’s. She told us before the election that we could have civility again when the Democrats had control of Congress. The voters only gave them the House, not the Senate, so we haven’t earned civility yet. She is just sticking to her principles.

Agreed! She is pretty close to achieving almost a mythological aspect as the living personification of evil. I remember a patriotic web site’s listing of her known attributes, back in the early ‘90s, which added up like an indictment of something cast up out of Hell to torment America.

The women would eliminate the EC in order to become President.
She would probably nuke Texas if she thought it would get her elected.
She would eat a live white baby if she thought it would get her elected.
Because she believe so strongly in democracy and shattering the glass ceiling...yes /s

No grace and no class. Stupid Americans almost elected her. That makes me shudder.
