Then I feel very sorry for you. And I hope that you've never attended a funeral service before.

Were you born with a stick up your a##? Yes I've attended funerals before. I buried my fiancee 6 days after we got engaged. 2 Months later I buried 1 of my 2 best friends. 6 months after that I helped bury the other one. And no, no 'thumbs up' because I was crushed, and because the life was taken out of me. And I've buried aunts, uncles, school friends, and in a month or 2 I'll bury a lifelong friend whos got brain tumors.

There's a difference between attending services of someone you know and even loved, and someone you met a few times 20 years ago and may not have even liked.

Tell me. When is he allowed to show a thumbs up to the press. When he is in the service? In the car? Once the car is moving is it ok after it's rolled 10 yards? 50 yards? 100 yards? a quarter mile? 1/2 mile? 1 mile? 1.5 miles? 2 miles? 3? 5? 20?

Oh, I see. So if you attend the funeral service of someone who "you may not have even liked".......THEN it's OK to give a thumbs-up as the car is "rolling away". Thank you so very much for that response. You have positively proven my point.

Dude, you need to give it up on this one. You know sKerry was outta line with the thumbs up and we know it.

Stop trying to separate the fly sh*t from the pepper and admit you are WRONG.

It's OK, we all make mistakes.

Why the hell is Kerry giving a thumbs up to the press IN THE FIRST PLACE??

Maybe because it's a PHOTO OP??
