The Ford funeral



| Reddit | Tumblr | Digg | FARK

Okay, I'll admit it. It's a Saturday night and I'm watching the Ford funeral on CNN. The motorcade really screwed up traffic in the area. I have friends who have been stuck in traffic in both Virginia and Maryland.

The event has created some interesting political dynamics for the Vice President. The honorary pall bearers include Cheney, Brent Scowcroft and Paul O'Neill. Scowcroft has trashed the Bush/Cheney administration. O'Neill, who Cheney fired as Secretary of the Treasury, trashed the administration. And, of course, we all know now that Ford himself trashed the decision by Bush and Cheney to go to war in Iraq.

Rummy is supposed to be an honorary pall bearer but Wolf Blitzer keeps noting the he's no where to be seen.
