Obama Was So Busy With Work He Couldn’t Attend Justice Scalia’s Funeral … But GOLF? You Bet!

President Obama was so busy and dedicated to his constitutionally sacred duty to nominate an activist liberal political Judge to the Supreme Court that he had to miss the funeral for the Justice we just lost.

He has time to go to Cuba to celebrate the bloody Castro brothers. He even had time to go to South Africa for Nelson Mandela’s funeral.

Of course he snubbed Margaret Thatcher’s funeral and did not bother to go to France after the Charlie Hebdo massacre when all other heads of states did.

This tells us a lot about what he values.

Obama didn’t want to go because he knew even he couldn’t keep a straight face and pretend like he was saddened by Scalia’s death, he is thrilled..probably did a few high fives with Valerie Jarrett when he heard the news

Exactly1 I’m sure the Scalia family were relieved that he didn’t attend. He would have spoiled the whole beautiful service.

Besides, Obama would have felt unbearably uncomfortable in such a Christian setting.

What would have happened to Obama in the cathedral?

I remember while watching Reagan’s funeral, seeing Hillary with her eyes closed. I did not think she was sleeping at the time. She may have been in intense concentration. MUST. NOT. COMBUST!

I remember that.

I think the reason he didn't go was that he hated Scalia and was afraid he'd hear him being praised at the funeral.

The Wikipedia biography of Scalia pays a lot of attention to cases before the Supreme Court that involved the homosexual agenda--that may have been the area where Scalia offended Obama most deeply.

He had Scalia killed so why would he go to the funeral? ...
