Is that true? I've been out all day...but to think that No President's Men are Allowed at "Lady Bird's Funeral" is really sad.......

Anyone have more info?

1. Correct
Carter and Clinton were the only former Presidents there.

I was surprised Poppy wasn't there.

6. I saw a liitle clip - looked like Bill Clinton helped Laura on some
steps. She was seated next to Bill & Hillary. IMHO both Bush men should've been there.

7. The Republicans just sent their wives...
I guess they only show up when they can use the funeral for their political advantage.

10. Just lookin for details so they can iron out wrinkles in their own arrangements
Knowing those two, they went grudgingly and are just making mental notes of what they want done or not done at their enshrinements.
