Vice President Joe Biden will attend the funeral of a slain NYPD officer, the White House announced.

“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. Additional details will be forthcoming from the Vice President’s office,” said spokesman Eric Schultz.

The president was on the golf course, in Hawaii, when the announcement was made. He's scheduled to return to Washington on January 4.

I guess Obama does not want to be inconvenienced.

This is good news for the family — who wants that creep at the funeral of their loved one?

And for the taxpayers: one less round-trip on AF-1.

I could visualize him glomming on for a photo op to boost his sagging numbers. But, I suppose he doesn't even care about THAT.

Who would want to hear another speech about him anyway. He likely has the protesters lined up anyway.

Obama's got all the money he wants for the next year and then some. Heck, he even got a war authorization before he asked for it. What's to stop him from just hanging out in Hawaii for the next two years and signing executive orders for whatever he wants?

Biden’s porn stash is probably WC Fields movies. He couldn’t help himself.

Obongo staying in Hawaii for the next two years would be excellent. Better yet would be Muslim Indonesia.

Probably not. But let's hope he keeps his hands to himself. (see post 8)
