WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama urged Americans to pay tribute to veterans on Memorial Day, saying the nation all too often has "failed to live up to that responsibility."

In his weekly radio and Internet address Saturday, Obama said people can honor veterans by sending a letter or care package to troops overseas, volunteering at health clinics or taking supplies to a homeless veterans center.

Obama once again confuses Memorial day with Veterans day. What a dope in chief.

I do that, anyway, w/o your direction ‘Dope in Chief’.

Dead veterans don’t pay taxes or sell their votes, so they don’t exist to Obama. To an evil, soulless creature like him, the dead are just spare parts, fertilizer, or Soylent Green.

“the nation all too often has “failed to live up to that responsibility.”

With ALL DUE RESPECT TOTUS- Shut Up.

“Your nation” ruled by Reid Pelosi and the hard left has often failed to live up to that responsibility.

(PS; Buraq, hugged your WW2 vet Uncle Charlie lately? How about last Memorial Day? The one before that? Or is “Uncle Charlie’s” military service a mere rhetorical tool for your personal, invented, aggrandizement)

Of which country, Kenya?

[NautiNurse]

Obama supporters need urging to pay tribute to our fallen soldiers on Memorial Day, and our veterans on Veteran’s Day.

Thanks a lot. Your backstabbing support of the enemy adds
a huge burden during war. Thanks Mr President, thank you democrats.

Maybe he will take the time to visit a war memorial today, unlike his “apology tour” to Europe?

[Iron Munro]

Komrade Obama and his pal Bill Ayers

[taillightchaser]

Hey, zero practice what you preach. And by the way, get the hell out of our lives!!!

I cannot believe this imposter spoke to our Navy graduates. Every day is like a bad movie over and over. This Administration is Groundhog day!

[silverleaf]

He’s got veterans like his “Uncle Charlie” on his mind lately. Seeing as how he intends to monopolize the Normandy beaches on D-day and recreate his “Uncle Charlie’s” WW2 liberation of Buchenwald on his next “Bash-America” tour to Europe.

Anyone actually seen him next to Uncle Charlie? Typical white guy. Retired librarian. Lives in Chicago.

The dead vets are the only ones who didn’t hear beep beep beep of buraq’s bus backing over them when he apologized to the world for America’s arrogance.

Barry is nothing more than the head poster child for "do as I say, not as I do." He supports the troops, much like the CIA, etc., when convenient but fraks them when political opportunity and gain proves the better part of valor.

Obowma's advice does not apply to lesbian ignoramuses.

WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama urged Americans to pay tribute to veterans on Memorial Day, saying the nation all too often has "failed to live up to that responsibility." Here we go again.. blame America....

[Jeremiah2]

“It’s the war dead, stupid!”

[RC2]

This comes from his lack of understanding what Americans are all about.......nor does he care.

[freebird5850]

He also refused to greet the bike club “Rolling Thunder”. A slap in the face to Veterans.

I guess some staffy put the statement about honoring vets in his teleprompter scroll and he simply read it. Actions speak louder than words mr. president. (lower case intentional)
You and your disengenuousness can go to hell.
