It's obviously an issue he cares about more than military funerals or conservative funerals.

People want to play the blame game and call out conservatives that didn't attend funerals but Obama has made this a trend.
Major conservative funerals he didn't attend for golfing or speech reasonsBetty ford
Nancy Reagan

It shows the kind of person he is. He didn't even send a white house representative to Chris Kyle's funeral, but some were sent to Freddy Gray's and Mike Brown's? C'mon.

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.Same goes for all those mentioned before in this thread whose funeral Obama skipped. The moral of the story? Obama hates America.

So Obama is a politician in a year of presidential elections? Big news there.
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.

The war on drugs is a trillion dollar failure, resulting in the U.S. having the largest prison population in the world.
Her biggest accomplishment is consulting with astrologers while her senile husband single-handedly tripled the national debt.
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.

exactly right. isn't this racism?
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.
