we are sending/sent a delegation!

and a relevant and respectful one at that (imo). once again, the second sentence from the OP's own link:

"Whitehall sources have revealed that the US delegation at tomorrow's service in St Paul's Cathedral will be led by two Reagan era secretaries of state: James Baker and George Shultz."

I don't think that poster reads very well.

He seems to be pretty much a one trick pony - all insult and personal attack, no substance.

Are you kidding? The damn Vacationer-In-Chief can't attend the funeral of a former head of state? That is un-freakin' believable. . He'll send Moooshelle to a funeral for a damn shooting victim but not Thatcher? Get serious. Baker and Schultz do not represent Obama in any way, shape or form.

You mean substantive crap like Sanford's ex? What a joke.

Thatcher was not a former head of state. Her funeral was not a formal state funeral.

I'm sorry. What is a PM in England considered? I guess less than a shooting victim in Chicago

And get educated

The Queen is head of state. Margaret Thatcher was merely a former prime minister. A bit like the majority leader in the US.

Your link is meaningless in the context of the UK.

Who said I was outraged? I compared Obama sending Mooshelle to a shooting victim's funeral with him not sending anyone to Thatcher's. Try to keep up.
