Sarah Palin told Good Morning Britain that she was surprised about being excluded from Sen. John McCain’s memorial service, which was held last August.
Said Palin: “I was kind of surprised to be publicly disinvited to the funeral.”
She called it an “unnecessary step” and added that the McCain family “didn’t have to embarrass me and embarrass others.”
