I caught this story being posted, and asked for permission to blog it its pretty harrowing:

I've had veterans tell me a very similar story: Kids forced to go hungry for hours during Michelle Obama media event http://dailycaller.com/2013/03/04/lets-starve-kids-forced-to-go-hungry-for-hours-during-michelle-obama-media-event/ 5:12 PM - 04 Mar 13

.@AZ_Susan She told the soldiers and caregivers from Walter Reed they were receiving an award and having a luncheon. Neither one existed.
After considering whether to tell the story, J.R. relented:
J.R. Salzman @jrsalzman
In light of Michelle Obama using hungry school kids as props, let me tell you a story about some wounded soldiers it happened to last year. 4:08 AM - 05 Mar 13
J.R. Salzman @jrsalzman
The following was told to me by the wife of a double amputee who was wounded in Afghanistan, and recovering at Walter Reed. 4:09 AM - 05 Mar 13
J.R. Salzman @jrsalzman
In 2012 some wounded warriors wives were told they'd receive awards for their duties as non-medical attendants NMA caring for their husbands
J.R. Salzman @jrsalzman
The award ceremony would be a luncheon at the Dept of Labor with Michelle Obama, and their wounded husbands would need to attend as well.
J.R. Salzman @jrsalzman
Despite the fact many wounded amputees were still hospitalized and had IVs and PICC lines, they were told they had to find dress uniforms. 4:20 AM - 05 Mar 13
J.R. Salzman @jrsalzman
The found uniforms and got them onto the wounded troops best they could. Unit crests, patches, tabs and awards were a bit half hazard.
J.R. Salzman @jrsalzman
The day of the event the wounded warriors and wives were bused from Walter Reed to the Dept of Labor for the award ceremony and

Words can not describe the scum in the WH. No more fakin it. Let it all hang out.
this woman has never done a proper job, is racist and certainly has no class, no dress sense most of the time and to top it off her program to eat good is stupid seeing as she stuffs her face with fried food and loves to munch of junk food.
Still she moved her family in even though they never lived with her before the white house and she gets to take them on vacation , feed them on our dime
Moochele is a POS....and her faggot is paving the way for the antichrist.....

Veteran's Story About Michelle Obama Using War Amputees as Photo Props
. . . . There was no luncheon; there were no awards.
The thing about this story is that it confirms what many conservatives suspect but will liberals just ignore it? The military is respected far beyond nearly any other institution among Americans.
Unfortunately, too many of our warriorss opinions are stifled by military customs and laws.
Makes you wonder what else is being kept quiet

Thanks for posting...I’m now following @jrsalzman on twitter.

“And as a kicker:”
“FYI, the person who told me that story stressed they are a big fan of Barack and Michelle Obama, and voted for him.”
THIS is just obscene.

Sort of helps to answer the question posed in the thread below,
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2770658/posts
If it did happen then I'm sure the soldiers and their families would have gotten the news out to anyone in the conservative talk radio network........
As a side note, it would have been easy to track if the Tweeter had given the exact date of this alleged awards ceremony..........but he didn't.
There's been too many other bogus stories on the internet that have been posted that made conservatives look like fools because they fell for them.
Trust, but Verify......
Hard to connect
Hard to read
Not at all hard to believe!
Is there some way to get verification for this story? Will any of the families speak out? This is a travesty. I believe it but this is worse than I ever would have thought.
Are we sure this was the event?
