Obama to skip Scalia funeral
Politico ^ | February 17, 2016 | Eliza Collins

President Barack Obama will not attend Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia’s funeral on Saturday, the White House said Wednesday. Vice President Joe Biden and his wife Jill Biden will attend. Obama and first lady Michelle Obama instead will go to the Supreme Court on Friday “to pay their respects to Justice Scalia” while the justice lies in repose in the Great Hall, press secretary Josh Earnest told reporters Wednesday.

Obama is who he is. This fits his pattern of disrespect for our country and it’s citizens. It is a good thing that he is skipping because his media would hijack the funeral of a giant of a man to highlight a small man.

If Obama crossed the threshold, he’d burst into flames...

Actually Ginsberg and Scallia were very good friends they spent ALOT of time together!!! She is quite broken hearted I have been hoping that in honor of him she will relook her views on many things, it is NEVER to late to change ones mind even at 80 something!!!

Maybe the family told (asked) him to stay away?? And that’s why the WH can’t answer why he’ll be missing it? That would awesome if it were true...

When Colbert assumes room temperature I will give him that same salute in a red dress. He is one miserable creep.

I can only hope I'm alive to skip his.

And if I am, rest assured that I will travel to the grave once the need for urination comes upon me.

I hate this classless SOB.

Sort of like Michelle putting her hands all over the King
& Queen of England. Don’t know if Hussein did the same;
but may God’s will be done.

Are you Irish? I grew up listening to my dad swear that if ever in England he would urinate on the queen’s grave. The rant began after a few brandy’s.
