    Absolutely Hank.Thumbsup But around here, you would be lead to believe that truth to only apply to members of the Democrat Party.

    One would think you needed to show respect TO the Commander in Chief too. But that hasn't stopped folks on this board from being disrespectful of the current President. And it certainly didn't stop Scalia from not respecting Commander in Chiefs by not attending 12 SOTU Addresses.

    The President, at least has precedence, to which he can refer for not attending the funeral as many past Presidents have not attended the funerals of Justices.

    So why should Scalia's funeral be any different other than political conservatives being riled up by Sean Hannity and other politically conservative talk pundits about it?

    Well, look at the bright side. The Obama's at least participated in a "moment of silence" for Scalia...during which Michelle rolled her eyes to the ceiling.
