Of course he played golf....what else. His whole presidency has been one vacation after another, one golf game after another, and one mistake after another. Our fallen don’t need a socialist creep spewing lies at their memory. I’m glad he stayed away, now I wish he would just GO AWAY.

It was too hot and humid to expect him to wear a suit and stand through a hour long ceremony at the cemetery...like I did.

OMG! This is horrible. Just who does she think she is? I seriously doubt she did this out of any kind of sympathy or compassion. I imagine this was only done to report to her Muslim controllers, the state of injuries our troops have received and how their war against America is going.

A least we know that she's an American.

How cute. Hussein’s wife, the KISS-ASS MEDIA wants us to know, is meeting privately with the servicemembers. I love how they’re keeping this on the down-low, you know, not drawing attention to the fact that these are “private” meetings...:

Better him playing golf than sitting in the White House plotting mischief with his advisers and handlers.

he is a disgrace to this nation and a huge embarrassment. He is plotting mischief and it will be with LSM help. I can bet on it.

You know it. Does anybody really think she wanted to do this? It’s all a part of keeping the Marxist/Muslim usurper a$$ in our White House.

When I watched Obama's speech at about the 12:00 minute mark, he seems to become bored and just starts reading his teleprompter to get things over with - not even bothering to fake sincerity or animation.

At the end he tells a story of two fallen heroes and stumbles over the words he's reading several times. Then, it looks like he just sort of walks away.

Being there, what did you see?

I could not watch DumBO at the laying of the wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown, because, i knew he had no sincerity in it.

If I thought that having ZerO work in the White House meant anything I would not begrudge his golf, but, he does nothing either place.

He is insincere and I hope he stays away Veterans Day too. He is an Amerihater.

I am not a fan of Michelle Obama, but this is certainly something the First Lady should do, and I thank her for doing it.
