“President Barack Obama is not expected to accompany his wife...”

Utterly classless trash.

Look, I find this administration abhorrent, but c’mon....his security detail would make a real mess...and furthermore....the “First Lady” attending is enough, imho. Frankly, I’m glad he won’t be there.

Utterly classless trash.

I am no fan of Obama, but there's nothing inappropriate or disrespectful about him not attending the funeral of a former First Lady. He did say some gracious things about Nancy Reagan on the news of her passing, US flags were lowered to half-staff, and that's all I'd expect of any sitting president under the circumstances.

George and Barbara obviously are in the same boat......not going. Kinda shameful even more then Obama.
