Mr. Obama and Mr. Biden are getting trigger happy for the spot light. They are seen this morning in a surprise ceremony at Arlington National Cemetary, laying a wreath at the tomb of the unknown soldier. Not only is that the duty of the President on Memorial Day, it is an encroachment of the solemn respect earned by what the tomb represents. I resent it being used for a photo-op by two Senators who have voted against funding military.
Disgusting.
Symbolism over substance. He can’t SAY he appreciates the military, so he has to go through some kind of motion. This guy is such a counterfeit.
” I resent it being used for a photo-op by two Senators who have voted against funding military.”
ditto.
Next- the Vietnam Wall. Bet on it.
I hope there is s special place in hell for those who use dead heroes for political gain after failing to support the live ones.
I think “over reach” is going to be to modus operandi of this TMZ presidency.
No, The Wall comes after they put a lot of
trash on to the steps of the Lincoln Memorial,
What was their stated reason for doing this today?
It just as well have been.
A new wreath is laid every week.
I don’t know how it’s done or who usually does it, but this reeked of opportunism.
Amen
Well stated.
I fully expect, and am distraught that, our national and military monuments will be desecrated over the next few days.
A link would be nice, but if this is true, it shows you what we are in for. The arrogance and TOTAL DISREGARD for America’s protocol and ceremony is typical of a RADICAL ANTI-AMERICAN.
oh boy.these ppl give the term Attention Whore/Hog.. new meaning. supplanting a sitting President is a federal crime... right?
I’m sure he’d also look for some stones to arrange into a cross, but I’ts already been done.
MLK day = wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown photo op.
and then a 4 hour concert at the Lincoln Memorial! oh God please take mercy on us.
