I wonder if he thinks he will raise some more funds here.

The Legion should set up a memorial for the 2 star killed in Afghanistan near the podium with a note saying: I guess better late than never.

That 747 is going to be worn out before Jan. 2017 at this rate.

Agreed, and then BOO all during the teleprompter speech.

__________

Muslim Obama or Catholic Biden - - - who would be the better CIC to combat ISIS?

If both these White Hut cowards resigned, then Speaker Boehner would be the next in line for CIC!

Obama, Obama, he’s our Man!
If he can’t do it, Biden can!

Biden, Biden, he’s our Man!
If he can’t do it, Boehner can!

Boehner, Boehner, he’s our Man!

I am disappointed in the American Legion for inviting this Obama after his proven disdain for veterans.
Normandy was closed when I got there, too photo vetmemorial_zps37fc78f8.jpg I was considering joining. Now, maybe NOT.

"Weighed down by politics?"

All he DOES is politics.

Dear Queer In Charge,

Take your speech elsewhere, and here is why:

On August 15th, 2014, after finishing with my podiatrist appointment, andd having time before the city bus came by, I sat down at one of the many stone benches that dot the shaded areas. Immediately, a black employee who was at that table, eating her lunch, screamed at me:

“I did not give you permission to sit at my table! Where are your manners?!?”

I replioed:

“Lady, you’re the employee, I am not.”

I said nothing else, but she continued to trash mouth.

So, with this explicit display of disrespect by one of YOUR employees, I believe that your ‘speech’ would be better said to a more deserving audience, namely, a veterans’ cemetary, which would give you the appropriate silent response.

As a Veteran, I wouldn’t want to be in the same room with that TRAITOROUS POS!

Why in the name of all that is holy would they even consider listening to him? He didn’t send a single person to the funeral of the 2-star general killed in battle, but sent three people to “honor” that Ferguson thug. Surely these veterans can’t be so complacent.

I am 100% behind your idea and suggestion!!! If I were there...I would be calling for throwing Obama out of the room with thousands of boos along with his departure!!! But....the POTUS....even low life America hater, Obama should be treated with dignity and respect....so standing and turning their backs on him, remaining silent, would just be fine!!!

Actually they should all just stay outside, but there are democrat veterans. I knew a Marine vet who was (hopefully is not now but I don’t know). Never understood it.

Each attendee will bring along his own degree of understanding of America's founding principles, as expressed in its "Declaration of Independence," and the reasons men and women have fought and died to preserve those principles.

The degree to which they understand those principles will determine their interpretation of what they will see and hear. See.

Correlates with God opening eyes and ears. Heard it long ago in Sunday School.
