While President Obama is vacationing in Hawaii, he has dispatched Vice President Joe Biden to attend the funeral of Officer Rafael Ramos, one of the police officers murdered in New York City.

“The President has asked Vice President Biden to attend the service for Officer Rafael Ramos and is grateful that the Vice President and Dr. Jill Biden will be traveling to New York City to attend the service on Saturday,” the White House Deputy Press Secretary said in a statement.

If only Ramos’ son would politely ask Biden to leave.

Sounds like his usual ducking of responsibilities, in which he is the agitator.

So only one of the police officers killed counts.

I watched a memorial service which Biden attended. His remarks were very well given, appropriate and I believe heart-felt. Though considered a buffoon in his political activities, none of that showed here and unlike Obama he didn’t make himself the center of attention.

Given the heated atmosphere surrounding these deaths, it really is better to not have Obama attend and remind the police how this all started.

Never thought I would say this, but....

Drop whatever you are doing, get on your taxpayer funded plane and get your sorry a$$ for a President to NYC to delivery the eulogies of these two heroes and demand that the provocations by a select few radical activists,espousing violence against the police department end immediately.

Then get back on your Taxpayer funded plane and go back on vacation. You will be gone all of one day. If this is too much of an inconvenience for your highness then resign and resign now.

You are the President of the United States, holder of the highest office in the free world. Act like it.
