If George Bush Sr's corpse is going to be rolled out this week to disrupt legal proceedings against the people safeguarding the corpse, then the fact of his death should be made public by those in the know.

Make it clear the body of a former president is being used as a prop.

At very least that will shift the narrative this week from gushing funeral to dastardly intrigue, which is what it deserves.

Also, it wil ensure there is no NoName-like whitewashing of history.

How about it, Q. Can any details be leaked to some reporter somewhere?
