A 60-second conservative commentary with humor and heart.

Illustrated scene of a podium at a funeral setting with a political figure speaking while mourners sit solemnly in the background, highlighting the contrast between humility and self-focused remarks.

My friends, last week Joe Biden took the podium at Jesse Jackson’s funeral. For reasons I will never fully understand, Biden decided that was the moment to tell the audience - after referencing his childhood stutter - “I’m a hell of a lot smarter than you.”

I’ve had the honor of giving a few eulogies. As I prepared my remarks, the goal was straightforward: honor the person who passed, comfort the family, and respect the moment.

At no point did it occur to me that it might be helpful - or appropriate - to criticize the intelligence of the people sitting in the room. And you certainly don’t use that moment to elevate yourself above people gathered to grieve and remember someone they loved.

Some moments definitely call for humility. It’s safe to say a funeral is one of them.
