Obama to skip Nancy Reagan's funeral for a music festival

[Im Still Ballin]

Worst president. Ever.

[dude77]

what .. don't believe it

[navy]

Why do yall keep wanting Obama to attend these funerals? He wouldnt have gone music festival or not.

**** Nancy and Ronald Reagan by the way. Overtime I hope their legacies are destroyed.

[Jameerthefear]

Good shit. F*ck Nancy

[nathanjizzle]

friends we are back then we were not

[Funktion]

Bush didn't go to Lady Bird Johnson's funeral, who cares.

[jstern]

Seeing how much republicans in general detest Obama, so hardcore. I would think it would be odd for him to attend.

Meh. It's not like a lot of us wouldn't crack open a few beers and have a good laugh, if Obama or that silverback of wife suddenly keeled over with a heart attack.

Obama truly is a piece of garbage

Guy goes to funerals of Michael Brown and Trayvon Martin but ditches Reagan's for a music concert.

I wonder if you really think that Obama went to the funeral of Michael Brown, and Travon Martin, who was buried probably weeks before his name became famous. Perhaps it's a personal tactic, knowing that people of like mind as yourself will believe it and then go on their outraged life complaining about it on the internet. "Can you believe that Obama went to Travon Martin's funeral? :mad: Worst President ever. Racist, divider."

Yeah thats it.

"If I had a son, he'd look like Trayvon'

Now whos the race divider, now?

[jstern]

Yeah thats it.

"If I had a son, he'd look like Trayvon'

Now whos the race divider, now?

So you're saying that Obama saying that Travon looks like his daughters is the same as him going to Travon's funeral. :coleman:

I wonder how many people who would hate Obama for any imagined reason and won't even fact check that reason so long as it's negative, have been convinced by you that Obama went to Travon's funeral. With you just casually mentioning it as if it's true.

Oh well, I'm off to bed. No need to waste time with people who have a child like hatred of a man, and take comfort in hating him for imagined reasons.

Dude, way to use a straw man argument.

"So you're saying that Obama saying that Travon looks like his daughters is the same as him going to Travon's funeral."

Sorry, son, but you just failed the SAT analogy section.

From went to funeral to "he might have looked like Trayvon" within two posts. Nice backpaddling.

Should he say now "If I had a son, he'd look like Nancy Reagan" as this is obviously the same as attenting the funeral in your flow of logic.

No, the fact is he is showing solidarity with thugs and yet deliberating make a point to say '**** you' to the funeral of the wife of a former President.

And what about the living people that are granted to meet the president at an appointment(even if it's just a music festival) he would drop for the funeral of someone that isn't related to him, isn't part of his party and has no further connection than being the wife of a president that died before he got inaugurated? I doubt Nancy Reagan cares.

It's the message. That he doesn't give a shit about a significant event involving a white person and will instead attend a concert (about some bullshit involving corporations taking over society even further). If you can't see this I feel sorry for you.

How significant is this event for daily politics and Obama?

[masonanddixon]

Dude it's not the direct significance; it's the message that he's sending.

[Overdrive]

Yeah as said. The message is he doesn't go to the funeral of a unrelated white person, that has no effects on the daily politics and isn't related to him in any instance.

I don't see the problem. I wouldn't see the problem either if it was the other way round.

[TheMan]

Good shit. F*ck Nancy
Apparently, word around Hollywood is that she did just that pre Ronnie :lol

[Derka]

W. didn't attend Lady Bird Johnson's funeral.

Clinton didn't attend Pat Nixon's funeral.

Noticing a pattern here yet? Idiots.

Was it because they opted to take a golf day?

[FillJackson]

Guy goes to funerals of Michael Brown and Trayvon Martin

Which racist newsletter did you get this from?

[FillJackson]

Was it because they opted to take a golf day?
Or perhaps it's not actually a tradition.

[Derka]

Was it because they opted to take a golf day?
Because a keynote address that was planned months ago is totally the same thing as a day of golf, you ****.

Eleanor Roosevelt and Jackie Kennedy-Onassis are the only former First Ladies in recent memory to have the sitting president attend their funerals. The sitting First Lady always attends and that's what is happening here.

[rufuspaul]

I bet Michelle is pissed. She has to go to a stuffy rich white person's funeral and Barry gets to hang out with hipsters and drink ironic cheap beer.

[Draz]

Yall over thinking this

Funerals are boring

[Trollsmasher]

at least it will be a respectful ceremony

it's not like Mrs Reagan would want such a person at her funeral

[Im Still Ballin]

Barry O about that wub life

I don't blame him for not wanting to go to the funeral of the whitest woman ever.

[Dresta]

Or perhaps not,
Well, it would't matter him not going to a person's funeral he had not contact with, but a woman who apprently helped his wife a lot, and showed 'kindness and generosity to me and my family over the years.'?

That actually makes it pretty dickish not to go.

That actually makes it pretty dickish not to go.You can be forgiven for not knowing the American tradition, but the Americans here cannot.

There have been 2 funerals of first ladies attended by the sitting President in the last 70 years. The tradition has been that first ladies usually attend.

I wasn't talking about tradition, just that if someone helped my family, showing them 'kindness and generosity' (as that quote says), then i'd go to that person's funeral. Was just saying that what you quoted gave more impetus to the argument that he should've gone (not that i care).

And it wouldn't be breaking with precedent or tradition anyway considering two in the last 70 years have gone, and Nancy Reagan was a particularly prominent first lady.

Here's to hoping no-one goes to Hilary Clinton's funeral when that long hoped for day finally comes :cheers:

Well, except Sid Blumenthal, who'll of course be there, bawling his eyes out, provided the loss doesn't cause him to hang himself (fingers crossed).

This nullifies my former point and I agree: Why not go there if he had personal ties to her? As said Nancy, won't care, but it might be kind for the relatives.

Still I don't get the political aspect of the whole ordeal.

[TheImmortal]

What has Nancy Reagan accomplished other than sucking Ronald's shlong? Much ado about nothing.. Stop.
