Aint no funeral like a Cathedral funeral because a Cathedral funeral don't need no permission. -- nm - Max Mar 21, 12:31
At this point, isn't it a given that if the President says it, the opposite is true? - decline Mar 21, 12:23 1
- It certainly makes it a lot easier than trying to figure out those who sometimes lie and sometimes tell the truth. -- nm - Qale Mar 21, 12:51
Yeah, but arrangements for state funerals are decided by the president - eg lying in state in the Capitol, flags at half mast etc -- nm - Roger More Mar 21, 12:23 2
- no thats incorrect. Congress decides who lays in State. -- nm - Jovian Mar 21, 12:49 1
  - I'll put it like this - the president authorises the state funeral, which includes a bunch of ceremonies, one being lying in state in the Capitol - Roger More Mar 21, 13:02
