Something to think about

Margaret Thatcher's Funeral

You probably already know this, but in case it slipped your mind, here's a reminder of some current history....

President Obama was a no-show at Margaret Thatcher's funeral despite being invited to attend and thus snubbing England's invitation as a representative of the American people.

Joe Biden also refused, as did Hillary Clinton.  (By the way, former Secretary of State George Schultz went to the funeral..)
The British took note of the fact that the Obama administration chose not to send a single senior member of the Cabinet.

In fact, no actively serving, elected Democrat attended Lady Thatcher's funeral.

The Obama Administration did, however, send a formal delegation of 14 to the funeral of Socialist Dictator Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez.


Thanks Ernie, for reminding us all, I had forgotten ...........
