WEST POINT, N.Y. (AP) - First lady Michelle Obama urged more than 1,000 cadets Friday night on the brink of graduating to keep in mind the families of the soldiers they will lead. Obama addressed the white-clad cadets and their families gathered in the U.S. Military Academy's castle-like mess hall for a graduation-eve banquet. It marked her first visit to the storied academy and dovetails with her recent work on behalf of military families.
She noted that more than half of service members are married and 40 percent have two or more kids.

Obama's visit to West Point and another on June 3 to Quantico Middle High School on the Marine Corps Base in Virginia underscores her commitment to the military, the White House said.Right, just like her husbands?

She has no right to even an opinion on this matter. So stinking clueless on any and all things military. I think I dislike these people more and more every day.

Bare arms and all, I would guess.
Also did she elaborate on just exactly which world army she was so committed to?

You think YOU dislike her?
How about those cadets who have the greatest day of their lives ruined by listening to this wookie who hates America more than her husband?

They got to see the enemy up close. May it help them discern friend from foe in the future.

Actually, what she said was that they should be mindful of the families of the sweet and gentle muslims they may soon face and hesitate to reflect before pulling the trigger or hurling that grenade.

"...Obama saluted the cadets for sticking through four grueling years at West Point during a time when their older classmates routinely packed off for Iraq and Afghanistan—some to never return..."
Clueless. Absolutely clueless.

AFN had an insulting PSA with the Wookie and Jill Biden talking about how FINALLY there is a way for military families to support each other. I got so sick of it. I doubt seriously if double wide even knew a soldier before getting to the WH. Mrs Biden at least has an understanding about sending a son into a combat zone
It got to the point I just had to turn it off. Couldn't stand to even have it on in the background.
