President Obama and the First Lady spoke to soldiers at Fort Stewart on the Georgia coast today in order to discuss an executive order the President would be signing that would crackdown on scams used to bilk veterans out of their federal education benefits. Towards the end of the President's speech, the tune shifted towards a hyper partisan tirade hailing big government spending. The speech invoked much of same rhetoric the President had employed during his recent “official” campaign-like stump speeches.

Lots of booing and a few jeers as Obama forces Socialist ideals upon our troops.
did he mention the increased cost of tri care, and the screwing our troops out of combat pay..
I tried, by I just cannot listen to that pompous marxist ass without getting angry.
I was going to ask for a transcript.
Somehow the oozing satanic ideology is more palatable when I read it than hear it delivered by his spokesman.
“...Each of us is only here because somebody looked out for us. Not just our parents, but our neighbors and our communities and our houses of worship and our VFW halls. Because we had a country that was willing to invest in things like community colleges and universities and scientific research and medicine and caring for our veterans. Each of us is only here because somebody somewhere had our backs. Because generations of Americans worked together. “Out of many we are one.” Those are values we gotta return to...”
Collectivist pablum...
Once the speech had ended, the crowd of Marines cautiously clapped to what they had just heard.
Thanks...
I see a pattern of “extrapolation” here.
Yes, families are the main unit of support, churches the next level.
Beyond that, it becomes a matter of coercion.
And that’s where the line has to be drawn.
“It takes a village...”
There is that ridiculous new campaign slogan they are pimping this year.
There was a thread on this earlier today.
I wonder if there was a group of obese black women wearing military uniforms in the front row, who would at intervals, faint?
He used that extensively in the 2008 race, to the point where it was expected at his rallies. Always around half a dozen obese black women in the front row would put on a big show of fainting during his speech.
The technique used to be used, maybe still is, in black churches, to make special services memorable to the congregants. It is one of many secrets of mass psychological manipulation long in use at “rallies” of all sorts (including Nuremberg by you-know-who).
Looks to me like Moochelle had to start the clapping because she realized no one else was going to.

“Once the speech had ended, the crowd of Marines cautiously clapped to what they had just heard.”
i did not see any Marines..........
“Each of us is only here because somebody looked out for us.”
This is the lie of socialism. We are “here” both because of self-responsibility and the totality of everything that has gone on before us, whether intended to benefit us or not.
This communist statement ignores self-responsibility and the contributions of others that benefit us that doesn’t fit their view of altruism.
By undermining self-responsibility, the socialists do harm. This is so obvious, I’ll not dwell on it.
What I will comment on, instead, is whether altruism actually is beneficial. This is problematic. Unenlightened attempts to help others often lead to lives of unhappiness, uselessness and even anti-social behavior.
In contrast, self-interested behavior in the marketplace, if honest, motivates people to lives that are happy and rewarding.
The problems, then, are twofold: On the “do-gooing” side, it is to actually benefit others when do-gooding. And, on the self-interested side, it is to restrain the dishonesty, cheating, theft and fraud that self-interestedness might otherwise result in.
Simple-minded people like the idiot in the White House disgrace only themselves when they confuse ignorance with self-righteousness.
Gee Mr. President, I thought that I was here because men fought and died for my freedom.
That- and nobody told my mom to have an abortion at planned abortion-hood.
The First “Lady” appears at Ft. Steward in a SUN DRESS??!!!! How undignified and unprofessional! Pleeeze! Someone teach this woman proper decorum!
The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
