Obama's upcoming dishonor of General Norman Schwarzkopf (vanity)
me | 12/28/12 | me

Posted on 12/28/2012 4:42:03 AM PST by lump in the melting pot

Yesterday we lost a true American giant, Gen. Norman Schwarzkopf. Today, I'm starting a betting pool on how many times obama uses the words "I" "me" or "my" in his eulogy to the General. As was noted in the Weekly Standard, Zero used "I","me" or "my" a total of 63 times in a 1,600-word eulogy to the late Medal of Honor recipient and Senator, Daniel Inouye, to whom he referred as "Danny" in the speech. I will donate $50 to FR in the name of the freeper who posts the closest numeric guess, prior to publication of Dear Reader's failure to properly honor a true American. Bonus: if Il Douche calls the General "Norm", I'll donate $50 to the NRA also. I won't have the stomach to read Obi won Nairobi's telepromptered spew, so any respected news site or blog's word count afterwards will suffice.

Fregards, lump

Why would Obama even be included in the service?

On BayNews9 (the local Tampa Bay cable news station) the lead story this morning was basically Obama and Powell send their regrets, oh by the way General Schwarzkopf passed away.

I doubt Obama attends the funeral unless it is in Hawaii or close to a Golf Course.

My guess would be 57. (If I were a member of the family I would ask President Bush to do eulogy.)

I’m going with 27. It’ll be short since Bronco can’t stand the military. Being near that much honor stings Ol’ Bronco like Holy water on a demon.

How does that Irish saying go?

"May you be in Heaven a half hour before Obama knows you are dead" - is that it?

My guess: 55
