He's a piece of trash. Skipped Scalia's too.

Personally, I disliked Nancy Reagan

Bardock42
I don't get this. Like surely you want him to do his job, like give speeches at big events, especially if they've been scheduled for months, rather than attend funerals all the time.

He found time to stop and sing amazing grace at a funeral. I guess he was lucky he didn't have to do his job that day.

No, the article very clearly states that he is missing the funeral because he is giving the keynote speech at SXSW.

In fact, I don't think the article states it, but I'm pretty sure I remember Michelle Obama was scheduled to also give a speech there, however it seems she is cancelling her speech (not the keynote obviously) to attend the funeral. That seems like a very fair compromise between paying respect to the former first lady and keeping the promised appearance that the South by Southwest organizers and attendees counted on.

Time-Immemorial
Making a case for something from an article I never read, try harder.

Bardock42
Why do you comment in this thread (with a baseless accusation no less) when you don't even read the OP?

That just seems really intellectually dishonest.

Time-Immemorial
I read OP. And I already knew he was not going to the funeral, do you think I get my news from KMC? You have been lying about who you really are to everyone, so who is dishonest here?

Let me get this straight, you are only allowed to post baseless "claims" and "jokes" but no one else it.

Keep thinking that and trying to play me as a fool when you do it in every thread.

Just face it, you have no one to talk to here but me because no one here can stand you because you lie about everything.

Surtur
I will admit though when she died my first thought was "Wow she was still alive?".

If a Civil Rights icon doed, he would have canceled that speech. Obama does not attend military or conservative funerals. He made sure to have time for Mandela's funeral.

Bardock is just mad at the truth because migrants are going to take over his daddy's business and run him out of town.

Sure, but what is the threshold? There's obviously three things to consider, a) how important was the deceased to Americans and the world and b) how personally important were they to Obama and c) how important is the scheduled work Obama is doing at the time

Nancy Reagan just falls far short of someone like Nelson Mandela in both categories the first categories. And the keynote speech at a big festival is a bug commitment.

Obviously there is a cut off point, you don't want him to go to the funeral of your next door neighbor, right? Apparently the Obamas decided that for them this warrants Michelle attending the funeral, and Obama holding the previously agreed upon speech.

Conservatives are just trying to spin this as a huge insult, but it really isn't.

Baseless claims

Omega Vision
Conservatives wouldn't have given him any credit if he had attended the funeral, so it's not like he had any real incentive. Plus, aside from being a conservative icon, she wasn't really that important.

Time-Immemorial
This has the relevance of saying "if the murderer had not killed the person, he would not have gotten in trouble."

I can't believe you really think people would actually criticism him for going, it would have been an honorable thing to do, quit making excuses OV which are really just false.

Bentley
America isn't important to Barack shifty

Bardock42
I could imagine Republicans spinning it in a way to say "it's awful he cancelled his important speech just to go to a funeral".

It's pretty obvious that Obama can't do anything that people like you would approve of, because it's not about what he does, it's about your hatred for him. That is, you're not honest actors.

I'm not saying people would criticize him for going, just that it wouldn't mean much to them so he probably didn't see the point.

If a president is only attending funerals if he will get "credit" from certain people then that president needs to not be president anymore.




Random black pastor shot by a white dude wasn't that important either.

People will always criticize, but right now a lot of people are acting like he's the first president to not go to a funeral like this. Which is bullshit.

Could you cite me to a place where they say he is the first to do this. Since you have to admit this didn't happen years ago it is happening now..so of course people are talking about it a lot now.

If they dredged up something from the past to be upset about I'd agree with you. But even then..Obama is the one currently in the white house, so it makes sense the focus would be on him now as opposed to..people who didn't attend an Eisenhower funeral.

Yeah, Obama attends the funerals of Dorothy Height and Clementa Pinckney, but they are black..so, that fits with his agenda. He failed to attend Margaret Thatcher's funeral, who would rate higher than Mandela in the 1st category, not to mention Ariel Sharon's. The fact is, unless you are black or white democratic, Obama will not prrsonally attend. Had Ron Reagan just died, Obama would not attend.

Time-Immemorial
Obama is mostly irrelevant at this point, he wont get a SC justice in, all he has to now is ride this out a little longer and hope another terrorist does not hit America.

I said "he" meaning Obama.

I dont think anyone else here had problem understanding who I meant.

Again, "It doesn't really matter does it, for every person that says he is wrong there will be another that says he is right"

So the original statement was talking about Obama, not you, and you were never quoted and you were not even on the same page as my post to Surtur.

So you just acting crazy and acting the victim for no reason.

Surtur
Plus to be fair if you want to say people are acting like Obama was the first to do stuff like this...it's not the only time people had selective memories. Like when Trump says ban all muslims temporarily you have petitions to ban him from the UK. Yet in the past we had a president who more or less wanted the same thing and apparently we had no petitions for that.

So if you want to say this is being done at least we can take comfort in the fact it's not only done to Obama.

It's obvious that Obama doesn't think anyone opposing his views is deserving of any respect. Nancy Reagan single-handedly started the war on drugs, as we all know. She's an American hero that has done more for US citizens than Comrade Obama ever will.

I still have not seen any proof that the other presidents did not receive criticism, so what Rob is trying to do is make this about race, which is classic alinsky tactics.

Surtur
I don't even know how someone would even prove for sure none of those presidents received any type of criticism for that. It was basically just "ha look at all these other missed funerals even though nobody said Obama was the first to do this, end thread!!"

Exactly, its a one of, they have no proof about what was said and if criticism was given. All they have is on record what the presidents did.

A very weak argument that Robtard is making.

If Mike Brown was white..would someone of been sent to his funeral? That last one is a loaded question because at the time there was a more intense possibly racially motivated murder with Micheal Brown. Regardless of how you felt you at least have to acknowledge that environment at the time.

As for the beginning. Why does it matter. I never once cared which funerals Bush went to. Nor do I care which funerals Obama attends or sends aid to.

Now when a president goes on record as saying he is the friend of charles mansion and delivers that eulogy than I will care. Until that moment lets not get carried away. Let the President attend the funerals he wants to. And let us not make mountains out of mole hills.

Surtur
But that is exactly the problem. He'll attend if it's racially motivated. He might even show up and friggin sing a song.

I care if he picks and chooses when to go to certain things based on race. It's not limited to funerals, but just anything.

He can send reps to Mike Browns funeral. I'd wonder if one got sent to Kate Steinle's funeral? Let us hope so.

Correct, potentially shady behavior from the guy isn't big news. It's like if I thought it was big news that Hilary Clinton told a lie or something, but those things are just par for the course. You see what I did there? Par for the course? Cuz Obama likes golf.

Did I miss something? People are blaming Her for the war on drugs? But not the current government.

The problem with the war on drugs isn't Nancy. It's the hypocritical pieces of shit in our government. "Drugs are bad..unless we are the ones bringing them into the country". Sort of like it's not okay for me to kill people, but if the CIA want to help plan the assassination of some leader then..nobody answers for it. But if I plan the assassination of foreign leaders suddenly I'm a crazy person.

Who cares? If my memory serves me righ, Nancy Reagan wasn't a great person. You all who care about this just want to complain. You love to complain.

It has nothing to do with greatness. It's just the problem is she's not black and she wasn't killed by a white guy.

I mean Mike Brown wasn't great either so why bother sending a rep to his funeral?

But no matter whether you disagree or agree with that you have to understand that for most people the issue isn't he missed a funeral..the issue is the ones he found time to attend. Or the ones he sent reps to.

Oh for heaven's sake- no, it is not, in any realm of sanity, even remotely close to racism, and it is insulting to actual racial problems that you tried to bring that in. That is conspiracy-style de-railing of a thread just to push your own agenda.

We have FAR too much hate-filled political pushing in thrreads again. I've given multiple warnings on it before but you have proven incapable of reigning yourselves in. It;s destroying every thread and simply causing wide divisions and arguments. It stops now.

Thread closed, and any further threads where you spend your whole time clapping yourselves on the back about how clearly sensible and right you are a supposed to all those other idiots you hate will be closed too- go find another place to put such spectacularly pointless self-aggrandising content.
