Obama Disrespects Air Force Academy Graduates
Gateway Pundit ^ | June 4,2012 | Jim Hoft

Posted on 06/05/2012 4:00:00 PM PDT by Hojczyk

Obama spoke to the Air Force Academy graduates last week.

Then he made them wait in the stadium for the closing ceremony so he could skedaddle to a fundraiser.

A family member of an Air Force cadet sent this in to a friend. Obama Disrespects the Air Force Academy Graduates

Obama comes to a graduation, speaks etc. then decides to leave before the Thunderbirds can complete their air show. They had to fly around, & waste fuel. Thousands of people – the graduating cadets, parents, friends, observers in the vicinity parked in lots waiting to see them fly, inconvenienced, so Obama – his “highness’ could leave to go campaign in Denver! How disrespectful of EVERYONE in attendance. It would have taken only about 20-30 minutes more time to stay until the fly-over was finished thereby honoring the graduates, Thunderbirds and the military in general. However, this narcissistic disgrace of a ‘Commander -in-Chief” had to inconvenience everyone and leave interrupting the ceremony fly-over because everything is about him. I was disgusted by this and so was everyone else standing around near us. I hope this info gets passed on so others can learn how disrespectful this Pres. is toward the military. Not too many who witnessed this will be voting for him.

Sure enough. It’s true. Obama dissed the Air Force Academy graduates. This was posted in the Gazette:

Six Thunderbirds streaked past the cadets as they threw their caps into air early Wednesday afternoon. But the expected air show afterwards had to wait. The presidential motorcade left the academy shortly after the hat toss and the air show took a break as Obama drove down Interstate 25.

It may have been disrespectful, but on the other hand, Obama wasn’t there to taint their special moment.

Of course, it would have been better if the Bamster had skipped the USAF Academy and gone straight to his fundraiser... but somethings just have to be endured...

One would be inclined to believe that The Won doesn’t take a number of his responsibilities very seriously - what, he thinks nobody is watching?

Not only watching, but taking down notes and relevant names.

I saw them fly over, have for many years.

I never made note (other times) what time of day that was, but this time they seemed to fly very late.

And Mr. “You don’t blow a bunch of cash on Vegas when you’re trying to save for college” is yet again seriously inconveniencing Las Vegas residents this coming Thursday as he plans to speak at UNLV. The irony.... I offered my daughter, a UNLV student, the opportunity to buy a ticket to see a sitting pResident. She declined. I must have done a few things right as a mother ;) Nice to get the head’s up from UNLV email that Thursday is a no-go driving day.

I wonder if the taxpayer dollars were used to pay for this trip? How about the fuel cost for the Thunderbirds to orbit while POTUS strolls off to tap those greedy rich folk for more campaign funds. Don’t look in the mirror Mr President, you might see something you railed against all through the 2008 campaign.

The grads, all of whom passed an academic curricula far beyond the Obamadork’s laughable ability, know what he is.

OH, if can be said, he did MUCH WORSE than that…and of course being a Nam Vet, what this Narcissistic, Hate-America/Military, Bottom-Feeding SCUMBAG did to insult all of my 58,000 brothers and sisters who’s names are on “The Wall,” as well as the thousands of family and friends who went to pay their respects on Memorial Day, is beyond the pale.

See Front Page Article: OBAMA’S MEMORIAL DAY PHOTO-OP BLOCKS FAMILIES, VETS FROM VIETNAM MEMORIAL FOR 7 HOURS

Obama’s Memorial Day Photo-Op Blocks Families

“Obama’s secret service shut down the memorial for most of the day, as families and veterans who had come to pay their respects to fallen loved ones were forced to stay hundreds of feet away.

"Why? So that the Narcissist-in-Chief could show up for 15-minute speech and photo-op with his carefully selected fans in the audience."

Read it all and be prepared to have it make you sick.

PS: I WILL CRAWLS ACROSS A FOOTBALL FIELD OF BROKEN GLASS TO VOTE FOR WHOEVER HAS EVEN A SLIM CHANCE OF BEATING THIS POS!!!

NO! YOU ARE WRONG!

This is typical behavior for a foreign born MUSLIM TERRORIST who conned himself into America’s Oval Office and the most powerful position in the World and he is so incompetent that his Handlers require him to read their words from Teleprompters! I pray Mitt’s handlers are reading this post!

Well, he IS the disrespecter-in-chief. I doubt the Zoomies wanted him to stick around anyway. He embarrassed himself (and the Mids involved) at the USNA in 2009 by chest-bumping a couple of the Mids. Granted the Mids initiated the chest-bump, but he could have avoided it. And the Mids were told NO SHOWBOATING. There is NO DECORUM associated with this usurper-in chief. This Presidency has been reduced to a joke.

He could have skipped it, and wouldn't have been missed. My first Wing Commander was Col "Bear" Chambers, the next one was Col Horner, who ended up being the Gen Horner of Desert Storm.

Old-timers like that, or any number of other quality people, could be called in to give that address, and do a fine job, and be respected.
