Obama isn't worthy of walking on the sacred soil where those patriots are buried. They are better off this traitorous scumbag decided not to visit them.

The Sensitive President.
The President who does not want to offend anyone except for the United States, the United States Armed Forces, Israel, Conservatives, the Christian Faith and white America.
To: Tax-chick
Agreed. I am glad he didn’t go.

This is understandable. The Americans that died at Normandy are 99.99% White, Male, and either Christian or Jewish. That is the enemy to Obama.
To: Northern Yankee
I did not admit it in my post,but I got a little “misty” that day. I have traveled to a lot of the european countrys,and while there are people that hate America,there are just as many that feel guilty and embaressed by the treatment our country receives from the America haters.

Doesn’t each President place a wreath at the cemetery in Normandy each year on D-Day? What will BO do on June 6th? Will an unexpected emergency occur that will make it impossible for him to be there that day?

No, Obama is the Apologist in Chief, but I really prefer the term, Douche-bag in Chief.

No, really.
That just got me and made me grin. In this environment we are in, a genuinely funny post is worth its weight in gold!
So, take a bow. That post was as good as any by pissant, dead or martin fierro.

Never mind. If this is the case, then Obama is unworthy to sully the land with the soles of his shoes. Some things border on desecration. Those dear war dead, beloved mothers’ sons, deserve a better man from all indications so far.

Obama’s message to the famlies of all the White Americans who died at Normandy: “Get over it!”
To: justlurking; CitizenM
This is just plain disrespectful to the GI's that fought and died in WWII. The Germans wouldn't be offended by it: they are very much aware of that dark part of their history. For that matter, the Vichy were defending Omaha Beach, too.... but the French weren't offended. I participated in a memorial service in St Avold, France. Many French citizens thanked me, because my nations soldiers died for their freedom. While assigned in Germany, many older German citizens apologized to me for their nations actions over 50 years ago.
When I first noticed this article, I thought it was John Semmons or Scrapple Face.

Hey, 0bama wouldn't even visit the live military on his trip to Germany last summer.
He has no interest in seeing the cost that was paid to enble him to be where he is today, and not speaking "Austrian."

What I dont get - how can the American people be so absolutely stupid as to continue to support this absolute disaster?
God's Word says that they are being deceived by spiritual wickedness that takes advantage of their own greed, laziness, and rejection of the Truth.

I guess it doesn't fit in well with his agenda of apologizing for American "arrogance." Everyday I think I can't despise Obama more...then tomorrow comes.

"the American people"
Oh, and [as Columbo used to say] just one more thing...
The poll numbers are bogus as well. We aren't being told the truth by any of the major media outlets. That's why we need a place like FR to find out what's really going on. People are really starting to get pissed off, and that's the one thing the tyrants fear.
That's why they are doing their darndest to keep us in the dark about how many of us there are. They want to keep us divided & in the dark, so they can keep consolidating their power & control.
