"Will he go gate"

Well, at least we get a break from balls. Now all they are talking about is the major diplomatic error President Obama would make if he didn't go to the funeral.

My guess is that if he was smart enough to be elected to two terms as President, he's smart enough to know he has to go to the funeral.

Remember how we picked on GWBush when he got cozy with the Saudi's. How many of the 9/11 hijackers were Saudi? Why were the only planes allowed to fly after 9/11 shuttling Saudi's?

So that's the other side. If Obama goes - he'll be criticized for acknowledging the Saudi's and that he shouldn't have because they had their hands in 9/11.

If he doesn't go - it's a major snub to a so-called ally.

Damned if he does - damned if he doesn't.
