By the way, you have to pay more for that Tricare.
Shove it Obamugabe you poser. The military make a great photo op, don’t they? How I WISH one of the Super PACS runs an ad showing the clown saying that to our troops.

I thought it was reported here on Free Republic that Obama was going to spend the 4th at a fundraiser in Paris. What happened to those plans?
I think that the Paris fundraiser is (or was) happening with George Clooney, but I was pretty sure that he was spending the 4th here.
He did the routine with the soldiers and naturalization ceremony back in 2009. They don’t have one original thought in their heads and copy others or repeat the same old routines over and over.
The one constant is that they HATE American tradition and piss on it every chance they get.
