“W coming off back surgery”

I'm not trying to snark, but on a recent thread it was posted that W has recovered enough to play golf. In my opinion, if he can do that, he could have made the trip to Baroness Thatcher's funeral. After all, she was hardly well when she forced herself to come to Reagan's service.

Seems he had surgery back in January and is, indeed, back on the golf course. Yes, he could have made the trip to London.

"According to published reports, Bush 43′s doctors told him to give up golf until his back healed, but he managed to sneak in some chipping and putting in Florida and has now been seen back on the links at a Dallas country club."

That’s why Baker and Schultz went? At O’s request? You sure wouldn’t know it. Seemed all this time they did it on their own. Not a peep from this admin.

Bottom line, no state-side current official was there?

I grow more embarrassed. After what happened for Reagan.

I’m with you. Huge snub and an f-you to our greatest ally.

Much mending of fences will need to be done if we ever get this pond scum out of office.
