Unfortunately, John McCain’s funeral services were highly politicized. It’s sad, but I guess it’s just our unfortunate reality at this point.
I guess that’s why I was so amused by this short clip. You don’t have to like ANYONE in the clip– the Bushes, the Obamas, whatever– but AT LEAST admit that it’s kind of precious.
Watch as Dubya snuck candy to Michelle Obama during McCain’s service. He was totally trying to be sly, and it’s kind of adorable.

Again, this isn’t about their politics. This is just a rare moment of totally non-political, everyday shenanigans. It’s about wanting a piece of candy during a serious event and having your friend do you a solid. I’m glad someone caught that moment. We could use more lighthearted moments these days.
Instant Twitter classic. https://t.co/DzIx7I8hwE

I don’t know why GWB & Michelle’s relationship is so darling to me, but it is always the highlight when they are together. This made me giggle. https://t.co/O5z2FTUZPf

I disagreed with Bush. But he’s a likable person.

When people come together & rise above politics…
This is what happens.

Of course Laura would have candy at the ready. 😁

I’m not saying we should all sit around and sing Kumbaya, but I’m totally down to enjoy a 3-second lighthearted moment every now and then.
