I’m not going to criticize him for having respect for Sitting Bull.
I believe the important point is that Obama (or more accurately his ghost writer) did their best to find a character that would cast the U. S. in a bad light.
No, Custer wasn’t the sort of person we should herald. Still, as a president, do you loft our worst to encourage others, or do you loft the best we have had to lift up our children?
This man (Obama) is an egotistical nightmare. And if Custer is so damned bad for being precisely the same thing, only and idiot like Obama would raise the issue oblivious to the obvious comparisons.
I have a hard time reading a thread like this, only to find some Conservatives as oblivious as Obama on the subject.
What three to ten year old kid is going to understand the lessons of Custer? This is nothing but a trashing of the U. S. in children’s eyes. It’s “Learning to Hate America - 101”. Obama gets his foot in the door early, on destroying respect for our nation.
