I didn't vote in your poll. You might as well have asked, "Should the President resign?" You would have gotten about the same 90% - 10% split. All political polls on here are as predictable as a Trump supporter thinking that Obama is a Muslim and science is an invention of the devil.

You never cease to amaze me...

 

I agree with TTP about the lack of intellectual honesty. That's the only sad part here. BTW, I don't back away from my comment about Scalia's bigotry and insensitivity to women and gays.I am very glad that he no longer sits on the High Court. The next justice will be an improvement.

Probably pretty easy to do. Similar philosophies and styles.

From the article:

 

"I wouldn't have expected President Obama to attend the funeral Mass, and I see no reason to fault him for not attending," said Ed Whelan, a former Scalia clerk who now heads the Ethics and Public Policy Center. "The ceremony at the Supreme Court seems the most apt opportunity for the president to pay his respects, but he obviously might have severe competing demands on his time."

Much ado about nothing.

Hellcats who gives a crap what a former clerk said? The family not attending when the President of the United States pays his respects says all that needs to be said. Man you are getting good at spinning......

Also from the article:

 

Some close to the Scalia family told POLITICO last week they were not troubled by Obama's decision to skip the funeral, which a Supreme Court statement said was open to "friends and family members."

JJ, I really was expecting an article describing a situation where the family was blatantly making a statement, but your article isn't even proving your point. If we shouldn't listen to family reps or those quoted in the article why waste time posting it.

 

This is just another example of how this president can do nothing right as far as some of you guys are concerned.

Hellcats, "some" close to the family? Really. You know better. When one of the immediate family says it was ok, then come talk, but not happening. This was a snub Hellcats and a showing they did not like what he did, plain and simple.

 

Obama is the worst president in the history of America. Not because I say so,not because he is a democrat, not because he is black, but because of his record.

So you're saying the Scalia family boycotted the president Friday when he paid his respects in the Supreme Court building?

Obama has to be the first President in history that his lack of attendance to a funeral is the final nail in his incompetence coffin :sarcastic:

Finally tracked down the fact that Eisenhower did NOT attend Supreme Court Justice Jackson's funeral in 1954 but did attend the funeral for Chief Justice Vinson in 1953. Americans everywhere should be outraged.

Eisenhower is now in the running for the worst president in history :scared:

This is just another nail hellcats. He has many many before this. The tipping point with him was reached long ago

Like Obama, Ike was an avid golfer. The general even installed a putting green on the White House lawn. That's a first-class ticket for inclusion on Mtn Ref and JJ's list of worst presidents ever.

Not mine. Carter is #2.
