Why isn’t Obama attending Justice Scalia’s funeral? Really?
SOTN Editor’s Note:
The level of outright disrespect from this president is unprecedented, unparalleled and unrivaled in U.S. history. President Obama’s willful decision to not attend the funeral of Justice Antonin Scalia is as shocking as it is unsurprisng.
Obama Exhibits Profound Disrespect for Office of the President
It’s almost as though Barack Hussein Obama was never taught his manners, or learned common courtesy, or understands the meaning of the word “RESPECT”.
Barack Obama: Guilty Of Conduct Unbecoming Of A U.S. President
Given the extremely suspicious circumstances regarding the death of the Honorable Justice Antonin Scalia, there can be only ONE reason why Obama has chosen to skip his funeral. While there may be several reasons that he uses for himself as excuses, there is only one explanation that rises above them all.
Truly, there can be only ONE reason why Obama simply cannot bring himself to attend the funeral of a fondly remembered and longstanding SCOTUS jurist.
“No matter how you look at it, they killed him!”

President Obama Is Criticized Over Funeral for Scalia

WASHINGTON — The White House on Thursday tried to fend off criticism of President Obama’s decision not to attend the funeral this weekend of Justice Antonin Scalia, but even some administration allies lamented the move as a missed opportunity to ease the partisan warfare that has followed the justice’s death.
Mr. Obama and his wife, Michelle, will pay their respects by visiting the Supreme Court on Friday, when Justice Scalia will lie in repose in the Great Hall. Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr., who is Catholic — as was Justice Scalia — and had a personal relationship with him and his family, will attend the funeral on Saturday at the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception along with his wife, Jill.
Facing questions again on Thursday about the decision, Josh Earnest, the White House press secretary, did not offer a direct answer but implied that one reason was the potential for the extensive presidential security detail to be disruptive.
“Obviously, when the vice president travels to some place, his security footprint is at least a little bit lighter,” Mr. Earnest said. “But given his personal relationship with the family and given the president’s desire to find a respectful way to pay tribute to Justice Scalia’s service to the country, we believe we have settled on an appropriate and respectful arrangement.”
Administration officials were stung by what they saw as an unfair attack on what they viewed as Mr. Obama’s dignified and respectful reaction to Justice Scalia’s death, a reaction they thought contrasted sharply with that of others in Washington who quickly politicized the loss.
Mr. Obama has repeatedly expressed condolences to Justice Scalia’s family and, while acknowledging their differences, praised him as “somebody who made enormous contributions to the United States.”
“Some people actually want to use the funeral of the Supreme Court justice as some sort of political cudgel,” Mr. Earnest said. “The president doesn’t think that that’s appropriate, and, in fact, what the president thinks is appropriate is respectfully paying tribute to high-profile patriotic American citizens even when you don’t agree on all the issues. And that’s what he’s going to do.”
Still, some supporters of the administration saw Mr. Obama’s decision as another reflection of the capital’s deep partisan divide.
“I feel like there ought to be a more respectful relationship between the political parties,” said Steven Rattner, a financier who led the restructuring of the auto industry in 2009 as counselor to the Treasury secretary in the Obama administration. “That goes for political campaigns, legislative efforts and attending funerals.”
But Ed Whelan, the president of the Ethics and Public Policy Center, who once clerked for Justice Scalia and shares the same faith, said that Mr. Obama made the right decision. Mr. Whelan emphasized that traditional Catholic funerals are deeply religious affairs during which even eulogies are discouraged.
“For Catholics, a funeral Mass is first and foremost a funeral, not an event of state,” Mr. Whelan said.

The pundits said that Obama would use his second term to reveal who he really is. I guess they were correct…very correct.
Well so far he’s been the model statesman, and a hard working and charming man. I would venture to say this is ‘who he really is’
a muslim cannot endure a catholic funeral. that’s why obama won’t be there.
It has nothing to do with Obama’s faith – more to do with his diary. Obama is a very very busy man and can’t just chop and change his schedule at short notice. Besides which, he probably didn’t care much for Scalia…. which is very understanding, given Scalia was a racist reactionary crook with strong family ties to the mob
Watt you are definitely America bashing on this site. All of your comments drip communist. Too bad you have to attack us here in America. Not all Americans are like what you describe.
Obozo is a very evil man who was chosen by the communists to trash this Country and he has done this with both hands. He is a muzzie and can’t go into a Catholic church as he may just break out into having a heart or god forbid a conscience about what he and hilldog have done. He is a liar who has a defined script to follow. He thinks he is Emperor of the World the way he acts lately. If anyone gets in his way of what he wants he just has them eliminated. Pure and simple. And obozo is NOT that busy. Hell, if he can take numerous vacations lasting weeks at a time that means he is NOT busy…..just the opposite of what you say. Some days he is reported to NOT read his briefing material. Guess running the world is hard work, huh? Obozo does not care about the USA. He is an illegal alien having duped the people for years now and was placed in the Oval Office due to voter fraud. His legacy will be murder, lies, embezzlement and out and out fraud. He is THE worst President of ANY country….now and in the past.
Why do you keep making excuses for this laughable excuse for a human being?
Obama is text book disordered NPD.
Obama is text book disordered NPD.
jdp…Too bad we can’t say persona non grada to this ungreatfull userper, real reason he can’t attend is the Judge was his target now is over no need to do much else execpt get our man on the bench to start changing the composition of the court to bend to his will.
Because she is a lying mooslim sodomite manchurian candidate.
Because you are a bigoted racist homophobe with all the personal charm of a horny skunk
Obama will go down in history as one of America’s finest and most popular presidents.
If Obama reads BIN then I think he would be chuckling with satisfaction; you know you’re over the enemy target when you start to receive ridiculous flack… and the right wing in-bred bible-munching racist crowd are sure dishing up the flack
Obama’s record in office is stainless – a first for a president in modern times.
The opinions of a few knuckle-dragging mouth-breathing bible-quoting mongoloids won’t count for anything in the long term; Obama will be remembered for a steady hand on the tiller as he navigated us through some difficult times.
Cut with the “racist” CRAP.
“Cut with the “racist” CRAP” – No, go lick your elbows you fag
Why, who are you – the pope of racism?
Telling it like it is – and it is racism, pure and simple.
Racism is a disease that infects those – like you presumably – who are narrow minded and have an inferiority complex
Do tell me, Captain Poop-Stabber, does the bible teach white kids to be racist, or is it their parents?
I see a lot of bible freaks on BIN quoting bible riddles, so let me see if I can do it:
Matthew 5:29-30
When will you get it through your mind? This president is a muslim. A muslim has a view of infidels that regards them as little more than chattel. Would the master go to the funeral of his slave? The Islamization of America has reached the level whereby “NO-GO Zones” are being established here, sharia courts and sharia LOANS, mosques and speech which promotes the overthrow of the legitimate US Constitutional Republic, is spouted from the White House, Congress and the courts, themselves. No longer does the muslim, in the White House, have to convey the appearance of propriety. We have passed the tipping point. America is an islamic country now. The reigns of government are now under the control of our enemies. The muslims, the globalists, the nihilists, the fascists, the communists, the marxists, the luciferians,et al, control the presidency and our foreign and domestic policy. We are 2nd class citizens, in our own country. That is our American reality. The absence of the president, from Justice Scalia’s funeral, is a public indication of the complete implementation of oboma “transformation,” which was inflicted upon us, by Mr. oboma and enabled by a Congress full of traitors, to the American people. Mr. oboma is not snubbing Mr. Scalia, he is conducting business as usual as leader of a nation of infidels. When will you get it through your mind? We are a muslim nation, now. 2nd class citizens in our own Nation.
Blah blah blah – couldn’t you express that a bit more succinctly? Ah no, I remember now – you’ve got Downs Syndrome
Would you go to the funeral of someone that you just had killed?
Not a situation I will ever find myself in, but if I was in public office and I had ordered a hit on another public official, then yes, I would probably attend the funeral…. for the sake of verisimilitude.
The fact Obama didn’t go shows he has a clean and clear conscience; he clearly didn’t like the man Scalia, and clearly he had nothing to do with his death, and that’s why he can stay away.
Your diatribe invokes an overwhelming curiosity, I have a since that you are a Foreign Agent operative, and if your operating on American soil you already know the required disclosure and subject penalties, as required by the Foreign Agent Registration Act [FARA], I believe that the time has come for full disclosure.
