President Barack Obama will not attend Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia’s funeral on Saturday, the White House said Wednesday. Vice President Joe Biden and his wife Jill Biden will attend. Obama and first lady Michelle Obama instead will go to the Supreme Court on Friday “to pay their respects to Justice Scalia” while the justice lies in repose in the Great Hall, press secretary Josh Earnest told reporters Wednesday.

Post of the day.

Besides, Holy Water hits 0bama, and he’ll spontaneously combust.

Lincoln issued an arrest warrant for Chief Justice Roger Taney because Taney wrote an opinion disagreeing with Lincoln's Suspension of Habeas Corpus. A lot of presidents since the Founding have thought they were kings and didn't to answer to anyone, especially the Constitution.

Ask any of Obama's sons (they know who they are) in or out of jail, and not one in 10,000 would be aware of that... never mind what it means.

Black arrogance privilege...

Nothing is made better by the presence of that foul man.

Can't we try to put a positive spin on all this, please?

Everything everywhere is made better by the absence of that foul man.

Now, isn't that much better?

How did these hostile alien freaks end up in charge of our country?

Carelessness, pure and simple.

I say good, does the family want to see this pusbag there? I sure wouldn’t.

There's one funeral that POS obozo won't be able to bypass and that is his own.

The family probably wouldn’t go along with covering the ‘statues’, crucifixes etc and not use the word God or Jesus during the Funeral.

Interestingly, this is the image that Øbola would have to stare at if he was to grace the church with his presence at the funeral:

He would see ‘Hell and Damnation’ in that mural.

OTOH, Rough choices for the people involved.

(Include me)

If he goes to the funeral/wreath laying/Memorial or Veterans day ritual/ etc etc etc WE question why he is desecrating ‘Holy Ground’ and traditions.

If he doesn’t go, WE get to say he is apathetic, unPatriotic, and a General all around slug.

So - he(they) put themselves up for criticism whether they go or not - ESPECIALLY when one appears to outwardly loathe the subject(s) being honored.

not classless........ afraid

his SS detail could not guarantee he would not be shot

Yeah, but it was fun trying to picture Ike on Facebook. I wonder what kinds of posts he would make?

It'd be more entertaining to see the kind of posts Patton would make!
