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.

When was the last time a SCOTUS judge was found dead where there were no witnesses and a judge declared the death and causes over the phone and then did not order an Autopsy?”

Good question!

I would not want the prick at my funeral.

Perhaps his family informed the President that no pricks, Marxists or liars, would be allowed at the funeral. That is what my wife would do, bless her heart.

Sure the Scalia family won’t miss him.

I’m relieved that the family won’t have to smile into the demon’s face at Judge Scalia’s funeral. Funerals are to honor and remember loved ones so I guess the only one at obama’s funeral will be obama.

I would think the Scalia family is happy that he is not going to be there. I wouldn’t want him anywhere near a funeral for a loved one.

Maybe he’d attend if Scalia had beaten up a shopkeeper and attacked a cop which resulted in his being shot...

There will be a cross at the Christian service. Evil and islam (same difference) hates both crosses and Christians.

Champagne and a private party at the White House at the same time, no doubt. Poindexter is invited.

Good, I don’t want that POS pansy Hussein in any Catholic Church.

God knows what he’s up to. I’m glad he’s staying away from the church.

Obama doesn’t like churches much. I do hope O will be held to account for all of his deeds.

The measure of a man is revealed in Obama’s actions an inaction.

This is one very small person.

See you Next Tuesday. I would have called him a prick, but that’s not accurate.

Nothing like raising suspicion that he had something to do with Scalia’s death, eh?

Everything with him is ideology or agenda. He can’t just be President of all the people and do what Presidents do.

I can only wish that Justice Scalia would have had that opportunity.

But Scalia may yet have the opportunity to direct BO to a downward bound elevator when he reports to the lobby of the Pearly Gates.
