Elder Bush will not attend Kennedy funeral

Yeah, that's gotta be it. Its been FORTY SIX YEARS. Those Kennedy's are awfully patient, apparently.

Sigh...

Edward (Sandwich) Kennedy was a real SOB. His whole political career he took money from taxpayers and gave it to no good slobs who didn't work and didn't deserve a damn thing. His experiences with sexual assault, murder, and drug abuse were never met with negative consequences, but further glorification of the man. I personally dont blame George Bush Senior for not attending his funeral because I wouldn't either.

P.S. I say these things with such conviciton because no one else has the guts to do so. They are all afraid that their "reputation" will be ruined, but me I speak my mind as well as the truth.

Yes, one might imply that since he GHWB was most likely heavily involved with the death of the deceased's nephew(s) he might avoid the funeral and its procession like the veritable plague.

edit for grammarrrrrr

I doubt he's even invited.

He was a politician! Who cares! He's dead, and none of those stinking *snip*will ever do anything for you! They are all liars, murderers, philanderers, cheats, thieves and crooks! LET THEM DIE LIKE FLIES AND PAY ATTENTION TO WHAT IS HAPPENING IN THE REAL WORLD

June 12th video of Bush Senior Skydiving and subsequent Press Briefing.

Seems pretty healthy. Has his health deteriorated significantly in past 2 months?

BUSH SKYDIVE VIDEO AND INTERVIEW

I welcome any sources to that effect. I could be mistaken, here's a chance to prove me wrong.

That was two months ago. A lot can happen in two months.

My mother was a healthy woman at the age of 53 in December and then got ill and passed away in January.

He's just a senator.

He's getting a presidential eulogy because the POTUS is a fellow democrat who owes the Kennedys from pulling in many votes due to their endorsement.

Read the article. He threw up in the air according to Bush43.
He could have the flu. He could just be sick. His age could be catching up.
Whatever. The TV news reported he's not well enough to attend.
And considering it's just a senators funeral - he doesn't have to go anyways.

Exactly. That's why they weren't assassinated. Whereas the Kennedys that were wouldn't have been patient at all.

Getting upset over who did or did not attend one funeral on a planet with over 6 billion who are ALL going to die is just petty.

Arrogant disrespect? How do you figure that? The man is 85 years old for crying out loud.

...those years are, last I heard, beginning to catch up to him. I don't think the Kennedy's will mind, why do you?

Arrogant disrespect? Wow...

Flyers I also notice the fanfare for the Kennedy "celebration memorial" you are right they are treating him like a death president.

What a joke, he was nothing more than a senator that was never good enough to be a president.

Seating in the Senate seat all his adult life like a king.

But because we got a Democrat in the White house so all Democrats politicians dying in the next 3 years will have presidential treatment.

Look on the bright side... maybe Mary Jo Kopechne attended the drunks funeral in spirit.

And kicked him where it hurts.

I personally wouldn't stand in line for several hours just to walk past some casket with a flg over it. Closed caskets are a rip off and may as well be empty as they are of life and spirit anyway.

I have to wonder though, how many of those who don't like either Bush will do that anyway, just to get close enough to curse them goodbye? ( NO shoes will be allowed ??)

I had noticed over a year ago when Bush Sr. had broke down and cried at some event. I think he might not be able to control that here either. Yes, he may have many regrets. That was said to be one reason he didn't want to invade Iraq?

My mother absolutely refused to walk up to her husband and my fathers grave site. That's like the grim reaper pointing to it and saying you're next.

Bush Sr. may not have much time himself and a much stronger conscience. He also has had to live with his sons guilt of war and failures as well.

Ted is gone and so will many others very soon.

"NEXT"

Oh, are you referring to this quote?

Hmmm. I thought you were not a big fan of MSM.

I will happily accept ANY erudite, legitimate source. None yet provided.

If he is ill I will retract any suspicion with respect, If not, I consider it a snub.

Its all good IMHO, its a free country...

Maybe there is some unknown hatred between the Kennedy's and the CIA???

I suspect so considering things

Why would anyone even WANT Bush at their funeral?

I wouldn't want him at mine....

Political issue? Maybe it's a religious one. The mass is being held in a Catholic church. We may not be as religious these days but the older generations were and are. My Grandmother didn't attend my wedding 20 years ago because it was held in a Protestant church.
