Scalia dead

Maybe to make it easier for Scalia's family. I'm pretty sure I saw news that he will be layed(?) instate by the courthouse on Friday. I'd be Obama visits the body then.

Just an fyi, you are right with the (?)... it's "laid" instead of "layed". A good way to remember it is that payed and layed are "id's" and not "ed's" ("paid" and "laid").

Carry on... ()🙂
 
Conservatives:

Look Obama is disrespecting Scalia by not coming to the funeral.

Also.

We dont want him there it would be disrespectful to have him there.

The same bunch of conservatives who though it was ok to shout "you lie" to the President during the SOTU.
 
In the last 40 years have Republican and Democratic Presidents attended the funeral of every JOSC funeral?

The answer is no. So what's the big fucking deal?


"Get over it"... Antonin Scalia
 
Reminds me of "Umbrellagate".

If Republicans didn't get so outraged at every dinky little thing constantly it would give more momentum to the times when they probably should be outraged. Instead it just all starts to blur together after a while.

Victims, to the last.

Clearly if Obama wants to avoid disrespecting Scalia he should commit seppuku.

The President is presumably elected by the people to
carry out a program and altering the ideological directions of
the Supreme Court would seem to be a perfectly legitimate part
of a Presidential platform. To that end, the Constitution gives to
him the power to nominate. As mentioned earlier, if the power
to nominate had been given to the Senate, as was considered
during the debates at the Constitutional Convention, then it
would be proper for the Senate to consider political philosophy.
The proper role of the Senate is to advise and consent to the
particular nomination, and thus, as the Constitution puts it, "to
appoint." This taken within the context of modern times should
mean an examination only into the qualifications of the President's
nominee.
LOL, look at the author.
 
There is absolutely nothing wrong with Obama visiting Scalia's body on Friday. There is no reason to go to two funeral/wake events if you're not Irish. Even then one day is fine just the old Irish folks won't approve.
 
And this is the rub for ANYTHING Obama does. The knuckle dragging low information faithful have prepared 2 cups of rage for whichever direction he goes. DERP DERP.

On even days, Obama is an apologetic, weak-willed surrender monkey.

On odd days, Obama is a cold, calculating Muslim tyrant single-handedly destroying this country and taking away our freedumbs.
 
Thought I read he is visiting the blm activist who is running for Baltimore mayor.

Did you happen to notice that the funeral is Saturday & that the meeting was today?

It's obviously been scheduled for some time given the attendees.

Funny how Fox News managed to connect those things in your head, huh?

There's a correction way down at the bottom with the link so they're not actually lying, they're just depending on your imagination to finish the message, chump.

I guess the question mark in the title gives them plausible deniability. Wonder why loyal Fox News followers are the most misinformed?!?
 
Golf is more important.

Or the family told him to keep is liberal ass out.

I wouldn't want that son of a bitch at any of my families funerals.

Or the family wants it with friends and family. Or they don't want a spectacle there. Or maybe they figure with Thomas there they hit the quota on the number of black people they want to see. We can all invent fun stories.
 
Well the announcement seem pretty clear as to whom is invited to the service:



http://www.cnn.com/2016/02/19/politics/antonin-scalia-memorial-supreme-court-need-to-know/index.html


"Vice President Biden, who had his own personal relationship with Justice Scalia and his family, will be representing the administration at the funeral. Obviously, when the vice president travels to some place his security footprint is at least a little bit lighter," Earnest said.
