Well that's nice. Good idea actually. Biden always had a "thing" for cops.

"I guess Obama does not want to be inconvenienced." give Obama a break; somebody has to attend the shooter's funeral. Besides, Obama may be god-like, but he can't be in two places at once.

Elected officials and their appointees or representatives have no place at funerals unless specifically invited by the families.

$h!tface doesn’t care about the murdered cops.
BTW - the media say he’s on vacation. Truth is he’s continuing his job of ruining this country while getting his picture taken on golf courses.
