Like we aren’t at war.
I had heard Obi One Don’t Nobi was going to skip the ceremonies this year. I guess somebody must have told him to put the ice cream cone down and pick up a wreath.
Not a “major” war, but a bunch of major retreats and defeats that will bring about a major war.
Only 10,000 troops in Afghanistan and a war against ISIS and we are not at war?
For goodness sakes !!! Can’t he be removed for mental illness ?
The main war we are now engaged in is tyrant.
Our Country is being torn apart and NO MAJOR WAR? Sheesh
The guy has more against him than Slick Willie but McDumbo Mitch and Bonehead Boehner won’t touch him.

Spit!
Is that photo of Obama with the ice cream cone in front of the casket real or photo-shopped?
Every American of conscience has been hurling bombs at him for years ... HE'S been the (ongoing) war
Trying to discover the meaning of what “is” is.?
He does not mention HIS war against America.
Buy off just a handful of key people and they’ve taken over an entire nation.
True, if you don’t count his war on America.
