Barack Obama's speech commemorating Veterans Day at Arlinton Cemetery this morning was received with stony silence by those in attendance.
What should have been applause lines for Obama about caring for our veterans drew no cheers, no clapping and no 'hooahs'.
There was no Prince-concert-squealing for Obama like there was yesterday at the Fort Hood memorial service. In fact there was no cheering at all for the commander-in-chief in a time of war. Just polite, subdued applause when Obama was introduced and when he conluded his speech.
In contrast, a randomly selected Veterans Day speech by President George W. Bush shows numerous interruptions for applause.
A transcript of Bush's 2004 speech includes notations of eight interruptions for applause before the final notation of applause at the conclusion of his speech.

Can this link be posted with this article? This shows the complete *lack* of response from the audience. I’ve never seen anything like it.
Youtube of memorial. Cheers for Obama start at 3:50.
Looks like they bussed in class-less Obama groupies for the event.
hmmmmm.........thank you for letting me know. I had no idea that he had said “Navy Corpse-men” instead of Corpsman. I will read the link and get back. Thanks again.
I would have thought by now that tacky belt would have been worn out. I remember a black writer on the net wrote on that belt WAY back during the campaign.

Sick and completely disrespectful to those massacred and their families.
When he placed the wreath, he looked totally bored with the whole deal.

oh my poor eyes...I daren’t post it.
LOL - good thing I wasn’t there. I would have never been able to control my BOOOOO’s!! The prick is such a phony and the Military knows it. CO
Arrrrrrrrrrrrgggggggghhhhhhh!!!!!!!
[I think that’s where she keeps her shotgun shells.]
Lol!
Wonderful post ghostrider. Truth is, UNLESS the PEOPLE, en masse, rise up and physically remove these wicked men and women (destoyers and America haters All), then as you say, it’s too late. Folks forget that this wicked FRAUD is putting together his “personal” army of armed thugs all the while gutting the American Military. Soon, there will not be ANY hope left of saving the country or taking it back. Even the institutionalized black and white Welfare Rats will realize too late, that this group of commie/Marxist/Fascist/Socialist THUGS don’t care about them either. UNfortunately, TIME REALLY IS OF THE ESSENCE here. Here’s praying for you. CO
We respect your opinion very much, so I wonder if you could offer a theory on why some soldiers, like those local folks at the ceremony today, receive Obama with the coldness he deserves, while others treat him like a rap star. Who are the idiots? They aren’t just minorities, I can see that from crowd shots.
I am fighting off pneumonia so I haven’t really been too with it for a couple of days. But when I came to after finally sleeping for a couple of hours, the first thing to meet my eyes was video of bam placing the wreath at Arlington. It made me sick all over again.
He could not have looked more nonchalant as if he was doing it in disgust and only because he had to. He stiff armed the wreath as if he did not even want to touch it.
The people in attendance were as stoney faced a group as I have ever seen. It was barely controlled contempt for this man. It was visible on the faces of literally everyone in the panned shot.
One of the perks from being sick is that I have not seen either his speech at Ft. Hood or the one today. I will watch when my stomach can take it.
GOD bless our Miltary and I hope they know we are devoted to them and their families wherever they are.
Did Obama mention himself? Was it all about him? How many “me’s”, “I’s”, “my’s” and “royal we’s” did he say? Just in case anyone was counting.....
LIAR!
Good catch. I wonder what is going on at the time? The military officers are saluting and the civilian with hand over the heart, but obummer is just standing there with clasped hands in front of his crotch.
ping for later
Zero must be loosing his brilliant halo or something.
