Obama Used Fort Hood Massacre of Soldiers To Lobby House Health Care Vote
AP Report ^ | November 07th, 2009

Posted on 11/07/2009 7:16:30 PM PST by Steelfish

Excerpt from AP Report:

Participants also said Obama had referred to this week's shooting rampage at Fort Hood, Texas, in which 13 people were killed. His remarks put in perspective that the hardships soldiers endure for the country are "what sacrifice really is," as opposed to "casting a vote that might lose an election for you," said Rep. Robert Andrews, D-N.J.

This crap has GOT to stop, using soldiers as photo ops and their deaths and wounds as cause for partisan bills. I want to say things that God would be very upset about...and we need a prayer thread. Seriously.

Would God be upset, or pleased that you are showing some spine?

I’m not sure .....define the difference between bad thoughts (or wishes) and spine.

That was kind of a rhetorical question, you don’t have to answer and thanks for your original reply. It’s appreciated.

It was reported that President Bush and Laura Bush have already met with the wounded soldiers. Has 0bama met with them yet? Did he leave his little native American pow wow to go to Ft. Hood? umm, Couldn’t be bothered. Had to get back to DC to twist arms for his totalitarian health care. He didn’t even make arrangements to attend any of the commemorations of the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall. One of the most significant events of the 20th century. I guess the Cold War wasn’t that big a deal anyway, huh, 0bambi? The freeing of millions of people from 40 years of Soviet slavery in Eastern Europe wasn’t anything, really.
