Why would the American Legion invite this traitor?

He truly hates these people.

***
That must be why he starts out the speech by giving them “the finger”. Outrageous.

I went to the site so I could see the “finger” thing. You are absolutely correct. The jerk surely did that on purpose.

Next time he hold one of these snake-oil shows, everyone really needs to stand up and turn their backs too him. He would probably just LOSE IT at that point. LOL!

*******

Obama could care less if these veterans like him or not.

Why? Because in a few days Obama will sign an executive order granting legal status to 5,000.000+ illegal aliens, and he knows that these 5,000,000+ illegals will love him so much. Insanity. Insanity. God help us all.

What you saw was a homosexual man on a massive dose of Xanax, or other anti-anxiety medication. Ask a doctor.

He phoned in this speech from left field. There is only one honorable way out for this fellow: resignation. And yes, Biden would be better.

What would happen if the entire audience scratched their nose with their middle finger whenever Obama did that?

The picture would be priceless.

“Obama could care less if these veterans like him or not.”

I’m surprised he took the time to fly to Charlotte and make the speech. What was his real agenda in going?

“We need to make the system work!” the president declared

"I will it so!," King Obama continued.

It's like something out of Aesop's fables. I'm guessing that Obama left the bubble against Jarrett's orders. "The peasants like me. They really like me! Here, I'll show you..."

Not insanity, FRiend. He wants them here and the real people in power, Obama’s bosses, want them here because they will complete the work that the left has doggedly pursued for many decades now, i.e., the total collapse of our civilization.

Say good-bye to the rule of law and to civic virtue.

Doesn’t he do it at most speeches? Seems I read he did it at the beginning if the Veteran speech.

No, I think he reserves that finger gesture for certain times. If he did it all of the time, it would be different. Of course, you would expect one of his handlers to point it out if it was just some sort of nervous habit. Pretty sure he has done it just a few times.

BTW, how are you, my FRiend? I remember you from our gatherings in 2000. “Get out of Cheney’s House!” I sat across from you at dinner at that Italian restaurant the night before Bush’s first inauguration.

Just fine my dear FReeper FRiend! We Freeped at quite a few things together during those days. Did we ever think things could come to the state it is now? Sigh.

I googled “Obama - finger” and got a lot of sites with pictures and comments. Of course it would not be covered by the MSM. Another sigh!

FReep on!
