He's lucky she had the grace to simply look away from his orange fucking face.

ENOUGH. Criticism of Sec Clinton for possibly issuing a mild snub to trump stops now. He has spent years calling her crooked, exhorting his cult to screech "lock her up," & otherwise insulting her. He's lucky she had the grace to simply look away from his orange fucking face.

I flipped the local news on this morning to catch the weather forecast and the first thing I hear is something about his funeral today. Jesus Christ on a pogo stick! How long is this going to go on? I'm old enough to remember JFK's funeral and even that extremely sad occasion didn't go on for this long.

My father used to say "death is the great equalizer". Much truth in that. I don't care how much money someone has or how much of a celebrity they are, when you die you're no different than the poorest schmuck amongst us and not any more or less important than them either.

With regard to Hillary, she wasn't there to honor Trump or anyone else other than an ex-President. You should never feed a narcissist's ego. Glad she did this.

Fucking Chris Matthews actually states that she doesn’t like Jimmy Carter - because there was a single shot of her not interacting with him in the PresidentialPew yesterday. There were actually plenty of shots of the two of them chatting and smiling and visible camaraderie.

I am SO FUCKING SICK AND TIRED of the nonstop disrespect for Hillary Rodham Clinton!!!!! Yes. I’m SHOUTING!

I’m fucking FED UP with it. That poor woman seems to be everybody’s favorite punching bag. I will never understand why. Beyond suspicions that too many people just can’t handle the very idea of a strong, competent, and brilliant woman at her level of achievement.

I was very glad to hear there had been friendliness between them a little earlier. Jimmy is a hero of mine and it was sad when it appeared they were ignoring each other, which is what it looked like for a good ten minutes, all the while the contrast of Barry-Michelle-Bill being their jovial outgoing selves. for that matter I was sad to see Jimmy wasn’t reaching out to talk to Hillary either.

However, I don’t blame you for being tired of it.

Generally I agree with you. This morning morning joe did a stupid montage of Ivanka and Hillary, alternating their words on emails in private accounts. Beating a dead horse, and out of context — I think Hillary’s emails were done before the rules were made clear. Not to mention that Ivanka is a young spoiled traitor while Hillary is a hardworking and intensely patriotic who worked hard her entire life. There’s no comparison.

that Hillary is jealous of Maleria's beauty!!! WHAT? Hillary is educated and ambitious, would never have thought of whoring for a living or marrying for $$$. Hillary has the wealth if she wanted to have plastic surgery to "remodel" her face completely, she could. She will not, because she is a beautiful, confident woman. Air head Maleria will be getting plastic surgery for the rest of her life, and STILL will age just as we all do, only she will have no self respect, either. Disgusting that the "Forst Lay-dee" is a former nude model/escort. Anyone in the world can google her nude photos. She is not so special nude, either.

My rational mind can't find any really legitimate reason to despise her or otherwise be opposed to her. From what I have seen she tries to do the right thing based on the situation. There have been situations where I would had preferred her doing it sooner just like with Obama. But remember that most people tend to go with the flow especially with certain ideas and beliefs from their age.

The haters make up excuses and can't find a reasonable reason to oppose her.

I have no time, patience or empathy for ANYONE, so-called "Dem" or not, who "can't stand her." Anyone who says that tells me ALL that I need to know about THEM ... and I don't want to know any more.

At my age (going on 75), I have seen enough BS in my life to know it exactly for what it is. I choose to avoid such BSers and hopefully they will choose to avoid me.

Christians, were at a funeral, in a formal church setting, of someone they knew personally, and wanted quiet moments of reflection with respect to their own and others’ mortality, while the others found peace in talking and laughing with other mortals?

It’s a personal thing. People behave differently at funerals. (My MIL could not abide laughing and joking a post-funeral repast/shiva. My friend’s mother could not stand watching people stuff their faces. I’m Irish ... as are Bill Clinton and Barack Obama ... they/ we have seen it all).
