This man is letting his true colors show. He is not going to be a president who follows the norms and customs that other presidents have followed for decades. He won’t honor anyone who is viewed with disdain by the radical New Left. He is simply going to continue to agitate, and make a lot of money while he’s doing it.

Obama is trying to avoid the limelight.

He does not want to risk having any questions directed at him regarding his criminal behavior regarding the illegal spying on Trump by his corrupt DOJ and FBI.

Billy Graham was a Christian. Obama is not.

Clintons are very likely no shows too, no further benefit for them and their goofy little spawn certainly isn’t going to get the evangelical vote even if she does somehow manage to find her way out of a wet paper bag.

I propose the removal of “Presidents day” and it’s replacement with “REV. Billy Graham Day” as a national holiday. How can it be that the only named national holiday for a so called “hero” is “Michael King day”? Should we not have Billy Graham day?

Being in the presence of Christians/Christianity is an anathema to Omuslim.

You can’t expect an America hating east African Muslim to show up for this.

Obama to Skip Billy Graham Memorial Services>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Muslim ex-president would not be wanted anyway.But likely Obama is afraid that he might be at risk, which is true.

Allahwahoo Whackbar.

Now 80% of America would not attend Obama’s funeral.

No one cares whether Obama attends Graham’s funeral.Obama’s boycott is simply a cue for the field hand Congressional
Black Caucus. If Maxine is not there, that’s a huge plus.
