[QUOTE="Danny Tanner, post: 2857886, member: 10619"] President Franklin D. Roosevelt did not attend Lou Henry Hoover’s funeral in 1944. President Carter didn’t attend Mamie Eisenhower’s funeral in 1979. President Reagan did not attend the longest-lived First Lady in American history Bess Truman’s funeral in 1982. President Clinton did not attend Pat Nixon’s funeral in 1993. President Bush did not attend Lady Bird Johnson’s funeral in 2007. President Obama also did not attend Betty Ford’s funeral in 2011. In fact, the only First Ladies whose funerals have been attended by a sitting President in the last 70 years were Eleanor Roosevelt in 1962 by JFK and Jacqueline Kennedy in 1994 by Clinton. Is is fairly normal protocol. Nothing to see here. No "new lows", nothing to do with race or religion, either. Absolutely no need to get fired up. [/QUOTE]
