Obama Putting Up More Barricades at World War Two Memorial This Morning
Wednesday, October 2, 2013 | Kristinn

The Obama administration is adding more barricades at the World War Two Memorial in Washington, D.C. this morning, according to reporters on the scene.

The reinforcements are being put in place apparently to prevent a repeat of yesterday when WWII veterans aided by several Republican Congressmen pushed aside barricades to visit their memorial.

Buzzfeed got no response from the White House last night when queried about the administration closing the memorial to veterans.

A report last night claimed that the Park Service would arrest veterans who attempt to visit the WWII Memorial.

WTH does that mean? You have to mouth off about something to be near it? Apparently just wanting to visit something and take a look is not 1st Amend.

It might be time for one of the good ole boys to hook his 6” lifted, 37”tired, black smoke belching, chipped Cummins turbo diesel to one or two of these barrycades and give it a tug.

I would be one of those people asking them, “how do you sleep at night doing petty things like this?”

“...grinning like a couple of fools. I never asked what about. ...”

Probably because they were still alive, for one more day...

I’ve got a picture of my old man in the snow too... sitting on a tree stump, big ol’ stogie chomped between his teeth, growth of beard on his face, a wool watch cap on, and a Thompson across his lap with a LOT of ammo magazines in pouches strapped all over him.

He does NOT look happy. He looks like he was ready to kick German ass... AND the asses of the guys who sent him there, Haha!!

He was a real hardass; but he loved his family, his country, and his God. He was American through and through all the way to the end of his life.

He was 55 feet tall to me.

there is a huge disconnect between obama antoinette and the American people>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Its more than disconnect. It is purposeful abuse of patriots
by a coercive utopian ideologue, Barrak Hussein Obama.Obama is a fascist just like the fascists that WWII vets fought from Japan, Germany and Italy.

Obama means to conquer and demoralize these old vets, and make an example of them as people who need to know their proper place in Obama’s new order , and do what they are told : falsely blame Republicans for the shut down.(Then Obama would stoop to let them in to the memorial...get it?)

Good Read on Obama fascism:

It’s a trickle right now. But once the dam breaks, they’ll have no choice but to cover it.
