Obama Snubs U.S. Soldiers Again (he's busy bodyboarding in Hawaii)

Obama Snubs U.S. Soldiers Again

Calling their convention "America's Townhall" takes a lot of chutzpah given Barack Obama refused to do a series of townhalls with McCain. But not as much as declining to do a townhall with U.S. soldiers because of a "previously scheduled commitment" and then jetting off to Hawaii for a vacation.

Last month, Obama refused to do a military townhall for 6,000 veterans, service members, and military families at Fort Hood, Texas. That event would have taken place tonight, but Obama spokesman, Phillip Carter, said at the time Obama couldn't make it because “we unfortunately had a previously scheduled commitment on the date proposed.” But Obama doesn't have another event scheduled for this evening -- he's busy bodyboarding in Hawaii.

Let's get this straight: When Obama visits Europe, he'd rather address German hipsters than soldiers who were injured while fighting in Iraq. And now that he's back in America, he'd rather vacation in Hawaii than answer questions that our soldiers and their families have for him. Is there anything that would convince the self-proclaimed presumptive president that he'll have to address this country's military before he'll be ready to lead?

Don’t worry, Obama has a potful of bubbling problems that’s going to burn him badly, and soon.

His minions keep threatening people (and their families) with death, if they don’t stop investigating his background.

Obama has lied about who he is. He won’t publicize his real name because it isn’t Barack H. Obama II, and if he does tell the truth than that part about never having been a Muslim will turn out to be false.

He has told so many falsehoods that now he’s getting tangled up in them all. It is why he is in Hawaii - that’s where his real Birth Certificate is located (the one on the internet was forged!)

If Obama doesn't to face John McCain, he certainly won't be able to stand up to Putin. Pathetic.

Obama (who doesn't know a Marine Lieutenant or Captain from a Navy Lieutenant or Captain) must somehow know what most in the military really think of him.

He will, like the true coward he is, avoid all situations that might put him in contact with an active duty service person (other than scripted events with screened and briefed individuals).

He (and the gracious Michelle) will make some spectacularly gratuitous speeches at the Dem convention re how they so respect the military (that they really despise.)

If elected president, Obama will undermine, weaken, degrade, defund, and insult our military.

BRAIN FART!
Post should have read:

If Obama doesn't have the guts to do a Town Hall with McCain he sure as hell won't be able to stand up to Putin.

Indeed.

Obama is a pathological liar who not only endangers his own reputation through his nasty web of lies, but he will also endanger the people he is supposed to serve IF he is elected President.

He is evil and hatred personified, and his deceptions will get many good people killed.

He is the last person who should control the most powerful military and nuclear arsenal in the world.

No BRAIN FART!, you just got caught up in the moment!

The Conservatives should confront him with a Navy “Captain” and an Air Force “Captain” and cojole him into addressing them.

What is the source of your information and where can we read it?

[Jedidah]

Google “Barry Soetoro”.

There is mounting evidence that Obama has, or has at one time held, Kenyan, Indonesian, U.S. and possibly British citizenship.

When he declared himself a “citizen of the world” in Germany, he wasn’t kidding.

Is that a bicycling helmet he's wearing while windsurfing????

Not being a windsurfer I don't know much about it all, but looking through a few image search results, everybody is doing it bareheaded like this British chap

 

I can't say that I've ever seen somebody wearing a helmet while windsurfing before......

Considering that there are probably a half-dozen highspeed patrol boats with secret service agents and at least one doctor just outside of the image, I'm having trouble visualizing this threat to his head that he apparently perceives.

Here’s one link that coherantly explains the issues and rumors:

Yes but it's a photoshop.

Yes but it's a photoshop.

Awww darn it!  I thought we had him in an "I'm a gutless pansy" moment   :-)

I suppose we'll just have to settle for his usual "I'm an arrogant military-hating Marxist" persona and leave it at that  :-)

[Roscoe Karns]

lol- You’re right! It’s too big- I fixed it.

Give him time. :)

Here’s your link. I strongly suggest you take a couple of days and thoroughly go through everything. It will open your eyes wide.

Read TexasDarlin’s hate mail from Obama supporters. Real sweet stuff there. Gives you a good idea what kind of people support Obama.

Techdude was one of the people who’ve proven that the Certificate of Live Birth (COLB) published on Obama’s “Fight the Smears” web site was forged from his sister Maya’s COLB. (That is interesting in and of itself as she was born in 1970 in Djakarta, Indonesia. However did she get a birth certificate in Hawaii?)

Techdude has had to withdraw from outing Obama. The Obamatons have threatened he and his family with murder. And he isn’t the only one so threatened. So was the man who had the web site with a petition demanding Obama present his birth certificate proving he was a natural born citizen.

When you have a family with young children and your family is threatened with death unless you cease the free excercise of your First Amendment rights, there is something grossly wrong.

The people behind Obama are behaving like fascists. If Obama is elected I expect things will become even worse.
