WASHINGTON -- President Barack Obama will deliver the eulogy Sunday for the 29 miners who died in a coal mine explosion earlier this month.
The service, announced today by West Virginia Gov. Joe Manchin, will be held in Beckley, W.Va., and will include prayers, musical performances, tributes to the miners, and remarks from Mr. Manchin and other dignitaries.
Vice President Joe Biden will join the president to participate in the service, according to a White House news release issued today.
The service will be held at the Beckley-Raleigh County Convention Center, at 200 Armory Drive in Beckley, at 3:30 p.m. Sunday. Seats are open to the public on a first-come, first-served basis.

WTF?
But, in West Virginia, Zer0 will have no muslims to bow to!
This is going to be a difficult occasion for Zer0! Nobody in the WV crowd will give a pigs-sh!t for his spew, yet I hope he will get away from his policy of putting them all out of work.
How many times will he say “evil capitalism”; “evil Massey”; evil CO2; Hoohah government???
I wonder how many will come witness his eulogy for the mining industry?
Why the HELL would anyone in WV invite his sorry ass? I swear, if I had a family member who passed away, I either would NOT SHOW UP to the funeral, or if I chose to go, would turn my back on him while he spoke.
he’s the bride at every wedding and the corpse at every funeral
Haven’t these poor families been through enough?
Pandering
Whatever the current record for using the words “I” and “me” in a eulogy is now there will be a new one when he’s done.
If the miners wives or family members had any brains & integrity at all, they would publicly denounce 0bozo for using the deaths of 29 miners as a publicity stunt for the narcissistic bastard commie pig 0bozo!
I think that is the post of the decade. You have just summed up Dear Leader perfectly!
You know I could not think of a single “nice” thing about 0bama delivering these minor’s eulogy. And I see so far not many other FReepers could either.
How poor a leader, that one would cringe, at the idea the leader would deliver a eulogy at a national tragedy? 0bama is such a leader. A man who had no manners, decorum, or class.
"I think I'm getting the black lung, pop."
gag, barf, hurl, vomit and puke my guts out.
My assessment as well. Zero is going to be p!ssing on the graves of the miners in order to make political hay.
“So, if somebody wants to build a coal plant, they can — it’s just that it will bankrupt them, because they are going to be charged a huge sum for all that greenhouse gas that’s being emitted.
“Coal provides 49% of domestic electrical power, and any rise in the cost of producing that energy will raise its cost to consumers and reduce the amount produced.”
What if they gave a wake and nobody came?
I am sorry; but this is sick.
And if anyone hopes Poles failed to notice this, they didn't (unless Warsaw Business Journal is a low impact publication; a plausible theory for many O's voters.)
One quote from this WBJ article:
The plumes of volcanic ash that ruined travel plans throughout Europe last week kept other world leaders away from the funeral, including German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President Nicholas Sarkozy - though there was no word as to whether they too had taken to the links.
I am interested to learn how this will be received. Obama has been very verbal, opinionated, and declaritory with regard to this sad trajedy and mining in general.
This article is satire, right? Right?
The democratic governor invited Obama not the people. Remember WV went for McCain:
http://www.270towin.com/ I doubt that he will find much support in Beckley.
