Obama To Be A No Show At Memorial Day Ceremony
KGO Radio | 5/25/2010 | me

Posted on 05/25/2010 10:32:37 AM PDT by muleskinner

Obama will be on vacation in Chicago this Memorial Day, instead of presiding over Memorial Day ceremonies at Arlington. This may be the first time since the Civil War that a president will not pay respect to the veterans passed.

You know how we mistrust government, think it’s too powerful? Andy McCarthy said that’s the way Obama thinks of the military.

This isn´t his country and he doesn´t care. He´s obviously secure enough not to have to worry about having a tin ear, though; he knows that whatever we think, we can´t get him out of the WH until he´s ready to go, so he doesn´t even need to pretend any more.

Good. His presence is an insult to brave soldiers’ sacrifice.

Maybe we’ll get lucky and his plane will go down on the way to Chicago.

Although it is a shame and a disgrace that he will not attend the Memorial Day Observance at Arlington, a part of me is glad that his filthy marxist narcissist feet will not be soiling that sacred ground.

I’m not exactly certain what you mean by “prepared” comments.

All I’m saying is that he’s going to the national cemetery in Chicago instead of Arlington. The response from people I have spoken to changes as soon as they find out he’s going to another national cemetery.

The OP never mentioned he was going to another national cemetery.

If he was not going anywhere, the story would be a bigger deal.

I guess it comes down to this. Were you disturbed when Bush went to Normandy instead of Arlington? Are the war heroes buried in Chicago less important than those in Normandy or Arlington?

Oil spill. stocks down, no show at Arlington.

P. J Crowley was on O'Reilly saying that Soros stooge Michael Posner, who kept raising the new AZ law "early and often" in diplomatic discussions with China, was a great guy. O'Reilly said, "Was Raul Castro not available?"

Youtube, see around 5:00

He is going to the Abraham Lincoln Nat. Cemetery in Illinois instead.

That way he doesn't have to miss his golf date with his fellow Chicago hoods.

Real Presidents show up at Arlington.

My guess is he’ll travel to Sweden Kenya for the 4th of July.

Maybe he'll be spending Memorial day with These folks in Chicago

And yet to the cadets at West Point he said...

“it is an honor to serve as your Commander-in-Chief.”

As he told them they'd have to do with less resources as he needs the money for his socialist schemes.

the first time since the Civil War that a president will not pay
respect to the veterans passed.

Keep it up Obama.
Use your Dept. of Justice to challenge Arizona’s attempt to protect itself.
Let Sestak admit he was offered a bribe by your staff.
Pee on the pants-leg of America and tell them it’s raining.

The first Tuesday in November...we’ll see how that works out.

While that's true, I was thinking of National Health Care, taking over Government Motors, and such as that.

But then again, boob belts are probably covered under NHC.

Don’t be coy. You know exactly what I mean by “prepared comments”. Your posting history seems to show that many of your remarks are pretty polished, short and sweet. If that’s just your ‘style’ - and working with radio it just may be if you prepare copy day in and day out - then you have my apologies. Usually when comments seem so well-crafted they are posted that way for a reason.

Your questions to me at the end of your response to my questions (which you never really answered) just goes to show that you have no understanding of where I’m coming from.

I’ve got relatives in ALL THREE CEMETERIES you mentioned so your question of who is more important is disgusting to me.

MY point remains that the President should be presiding over services at Arlington National Cemetery, and at the tomb of the Unknown Soldier. NOT another vacation and showing up because you happen to be in the area...
