Great, then we might as well bury Jimmy Carter without any honors since he’s been so aggressive about those savings.☕

It’s weird how he stays silent about the budget being tied directly to the President. Like, what is his actual job here?😕

Sarah Martin76 said:I think George W. Bush is actually hitting the nail on the head regarding austerity measures during a recession, especially when it comes to the government footing the bill for civilian funerals even while providing full military honors.
Look, I get it—in the heat of battle, you might lose someone alongside the troops under military honors, but paying for a civilian who just happened to be at a bar? That’s a different story entirely. ☕

Everyone needs to just take a breath and chill out!

We’d probably save quite a bit of money ourselves if we stopped subsidizing people like you.

Just counting up all the confused types like you and people similar to you.☕

Look, I’m not some guy digging ditches in the Midwest or working at a cattle ranch, so maybe just stay in your lane. Have a good one! 😁

The President's statement was completely off base, but let's be honest—he's just a slick operator who figured out how to spin his own words to save face. You and him... you're both just as crooked.👍

We seriously need to scrap these wreaths for anyone who's been doing this since 1945. Enough is enough, man. Just how much money is being burned through here?! We're talking about decades upon decades of wasted cash!☕

If they're doing it just to buy votes, nothing is too expensive for those crowds of thieves, frauds, and degenerates. It all comes back to them tenfold. 😍

My grandfather met his end back in 1962; he took a fatal fall at a border crossing while attempting to flee—striking his head against a guardrail. However, because he had been a highly respected Major General in the US Armed Forces, his funeral was an affair of significant distinction. When they were laying him to rest, there were twelve tanks stationed along the perimeter, and when the honor guard fired the ceremonial volley in the neighboring township, the toll of the occasion was felt by forty-nine people who perished in the aftermath.
That’s just how the US Armed Forces operated. ☕

People are making way more noise about free caskets and funeral costs than anything else. That’s where all this fuss is coming from. It isn't really about honor. Honestly, what can you say about someone who doesn't even earn enough during their life to cover their own funeral? My only gripe with George W. Bush is that he didn't just handle this quietly.

Just count all the idiots and hotheads out there. There's plenty to go around!😁😁😁
If you want to talk about the budget, go ask Bill Clinton, Pelé, or anyone else dear to Jadrančica. As far as I'm concerned, you can take that opinion and shove it.☕
