OBAMA'S WORST MOMENT: EXPLOITING DEAD AMERICAN HEROES
If this doesn't make your skin crawl and your blood boil, I don't know what. What a nightmare.

I was enroute to DC and arrived late to my debate "party". I missed this. Bubba thanks for letting me know. Geraghty nails it over at NRO:
Did Obama Have a 'Bush Looking At His Watch' Moment Tonight?
I wonder if we had a "Bush looking at his watch" moment tonight.
After McCain talked about the bracelet from the mother of a slain soldier, Obama mentioned that he had one, too.
Unfortunately, it would seem that he didn't have the name of the solder, Ryan David Jopek (sp?), quite on the tip of his tongue. He seems to have to read the name off the bracelet:
Obama: Jim, let me just make a point. I've got a bracelet, too.
(Looks up, adjusts wrist, looks down at wrist)
Obama: From sergeant... uh.. (adjusts wrist) uh, from the mother of sergeant Ryan David Jopek (phonetic). Given to me in Green Bay. And she asked me, can you please make sure another mother isn't going through what I'm going through?
Yeah, and worse, he's not even good at it.
As the days go by this is going to look even more smarmy than it did the first time.
What was he saying? He will make sure no one ever dies in war again?
Where is the mother? Is she a freak who thinks her son died for nothing and is not a hero?
Some 527s need to portray 0bama as a Warmonger. He already triggered a big uproar in Pakistan with his public intention to go inside Pakistan with or without their consent.
This doesn't really make sense when he plans to send more soldiers to Afghanistan unless the Messiah Overlord plans on granting all U.S. Soldiers immortality.
I heard him say it, I didn’t see him look. I watched the video and yes it does seem obvious he had to read the name. I really have to wonder why he had to even bring it up? I mean, why the “me too” moment? To me that showed a real either insecurity or just that kind of annoying person that always does the “top this” thing. You know anything you say they have to say me too or go you one better? McCain I think had a legitimate reason as Obama actually tried to say McCain didn’t care about the vets by his voting against the bill with the timeline. So McCain got the chance to tell his bracelet story. What’s ironic is the mother gave Obama the bracelet because she saw McCain had one.
What a douche.....
Nobama has become the "Me Too" candidate.
Note to Nobama and the democRAT party as a whole from those of us who actually HAVE SERVED OUR COUNTRY not just our community, We Don't Want Your Sympathy, Empathy or Effort to Look After Us at ALL.
For the most part we didn't join the armed services because we "had to," we did it because we wanted to. We do it out of love of country and a desire to do what is right and to maintain our freedoms.
We don't need you trying to speak for us. We speak loud and clear to the whole world with every new enlistment and with every reenlistment.
I guess what we are saying is STFU and get out of the way to let those of us that are willing to do the "JOB" that needs to be done for those of you who are not willing to do yourselves.
From our live thread last night:

“OBAMA’S WORST MOMENT: EXPLOITING DEAD AMERICAN HEROES

Well, he has such experience and bona fides in being one. /s
0bambi is just a little kid, trying to play with the big boyz.
One of our local cartoonists should come up with 2 adults meeting, and little
0bambi in short pants jumping around saying "me too, me too"
“Nobama has become the “Me Too” candidate.”
You got that right - and it was on practically ALL of the topics, and capped by this one.
However, and not in his defense - but it seemed to me that looking at the bracelet was a thoughtful look - looking at the item that he is referring to.
I think the stumble was due to the fact that he starts off with “I got this from sergeant...(oh S%*@ - he’s dead)..uh..from the mother of .....
I tried looking at past photos to see if Obama does wear the bracelet regularily. I can’t tell.
Thanks for the screen cap. Now we need to juxtapose it with H.W.’s classic watch glance...
Not to mention all the soldiers over there who will be fried in the nuclear war he begins with Pakistan.
My Dead Soldier’s better than your Dead Soldier. Too bad he couldn’t remember his name.
You can bet he knew McCain would bring it up and was laying in wait. What a pathetic ghoul.
Pray for W, McCuda and Our Troops
The good news is, the late Sgt. Ryan D. Jopek WILL be voting for 0bama, along with other deceased, many of whom Barack sees here today.
Non-Story. The MSM is completely ignoring it.
It’s as if it never happened.
Had McCain done it - front page news.
I said it a month ago, that McCain and Palin will have to defeat the MSM, not Obama and Biden.
The MSM dragged Bush down to AR’s in the low 30’s and they’re doing the same to McCain and Palin, while giving Obama and Biden a free pass.
