So I am watching Gerald Ford's state funeral on TV and I noticed something interesting
Whitehouse.gov photo of Ford's casket at the White House Rotunda
I wish I could get a screen-cap of what I just saw now on CNN --and I have been switching channels to see if I can get a better look at the seating arrangement on the left-hand side of the aisle.
Almost all of the Bush family is sitting in the front of the left-hand side aisle. Jimmy Carter and his wife are in the front row along with Nancy Reagan and Laura Bush. Condoleezza Rice is on the third row behind Bush I, his wife and one of their daughters.
Oh! I saw the Clintons.
As Bush is walking down the aisle with Ford's widow, I caught a glimpse of the Clintons. They are sitting to the left of one of the Bush daughters. Off-center and almost off-camera.
Also interesting ... they put Betty Ford with her immediate family on the right, away from the politically charged seating that was arranged on the left side.
The seating on those 3 front rows on the left side say way too much of the effed-up politics of United States. Talk about nepotism and The South controlling politics in the post-Civil Rights Movement Unites States.
ps : Did I just saw Dick Cheney express an emotion? He actually looked sad!
