I saw 4 grey military helicopters flying low over downtown Los Angeles this afternoon , I wonder if that was the Campaigner in Chief / America’s Most Hated

Actually, all of those things really do belong to President Obama, according to the Constitution we adore.

And on top of those, he's got the militia too:

Constitution

Section. 2. The President shall be Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy of the United States, and of the Militia of the several States, when called into the actual Service of the United States;

Tried unsuccessfully to find the story so will try to just repeat from memory.

Obama as a kid asked his playmates which would they rather be..soldier, fireman or whatever. The friends answered and then Obama said he’d rather be king because then he could command the soldier to do what he wanted - along with the fireman..etc.

Apparently to Obama acting like a king is the way his life should e.

Funny I’ve never seen any article or section of the Constitution describing what type or method of transportation is to be used for the president.

Being Commander in Chief doesn’t mean that he’s “got” anything. It means he may properly use certain things such as Air Force One in the line of duty. Where is your thinking?

Who decides when he's improperly used AF1? You?

How on Earth do you go from "Commander" to "owner"?

The mainstream media had better get this straight -- Air Force One is not the "private jet" of the president, period.

Really? What will happen if they don't? Will we quit buying their printed material?

I suppose we could get really mad like Issa, or Boehner, that might help. </sarcasm>

AF-One and the C-5 transport for the Limos and support staff) should ONLY be used for government work.

It is an egregious offense for King Narcissus to be using our tax dollars to attend PARTISAN FUNDRAISERS.

Romney should make this point in the debates about how Obama has been acting like a king and misusing tax dollars for private campaigning.

Biden came to my city for a fundraiser in california. Lots of commotion, AF-One, C-5 transport and Hwy 101 on-ramps blocked, etc.

Really pissed me off to see the aircraft sitting at our airport on my dime so President Obeyme can can raise partisan campaign funds to fight against my party.

But Obama has to pay for personal use of AF1. And this is personal use.
The MSM made a point to bash Bush about using AF1 until he showed he was paying for it out of his pocket.
I wonder if the media is doing the same for this regime?

Without going into details, I was at a Flag officer change of command ceremony not long ago. There were maybe 400 officers and men present, the officers being over-represented as you would expect as this kind of ceremony. Then there were the State and Fed honorary attendees. The incoming Flag was in the middle of his remarks, no big changes foreseen, command in good shape, will have do more with less, all standard fare, when, out of the blue and apropos to nothing he said before or after, he stated quite forcefully that all enlisted members took an Oath to obey their officers, but he wanted to remind all the officers that they took and Oath to uphold the Constitution and defend if from all enemies foreign and domestic.

That completely woke me up and I could not breathe for a moment, and as I looked out the corner of my eye there was not a movement of sound in the whole body of people.

I think the military has our backs. I'll never forget that moment.

He’s the “Commander in Chief” not the owner. “H” WE are his Commander in Chiefs actually, and the ultimate say over his personal claims. The guy works for us, and we are going to show him, and remind others of that fact this coming November. The guy’s a Turkey, and November is Turkey month.

It’s a matter of doing it.

How do you follow the orders of an ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT?

Barack Hussein is an ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT, pure and simple. People can go to www.scribd.com and read their pages 20 thru 32 ,
For those of you who don't know, remember this:
8 Congressional attempts from June 2004 to February 2008 to alter Article II Section 1 Clause 5 of the US Constitution, proves to meRead it for yourself.
Then look at these links.
Just before the 2008 election Barack Obama's election team spent $1.4 million blocking access to all of Obama's records.

Barack Hussein Obama II is UNCONSTITUTIONALLY QUALIFIED.
There were 8 attempts by Democrats to try to "Change the Qualification Rules" BEFORE Obama was elected.
They KNOW Obama's ILLEGAL ... AND .... UNQUALIFIED!

Obama's record is hard to find.
Think about this.
Here's something to ponder. Now think about those facts,and statements.
The forgeries I'm aware of, are the three Birth Cretificate Barack Hussein Obama II has forged.
I don't trust evidence put forth by Obama supporters.
The disappearance of too much evidence on Obama is strong enough for me to know that he was born in Kenya.

Read INS DOC FOUND: U.S. CERTIFICATE ISSUED TO ONE EAST AFRICAN-BORN CHILD OF U.S. CITIZEN IN 1961!




In summary as stated by WhiskeyX

Ponder that!

He is Commander in Chief, but the men and women who serve under him serve on OUR behalf... the citizens of the USA... God bless us.
