Wonder if he'll make a public statement today. On the actual anniversary.

Maybe he'll apologize for American imperialism in the Pacific.

Maybe so...he is, ostensibly, from Hawaii after all.

NO, he’ll apologize for the American carriers not being in Pearl to be sunk.

Well, I’m glad someone gave him the right information because Rev. Wright said Dec. 7, 1941 was the day that America bombed Hiroshima.

That’s awful white of him....if I may say that. We don’t need him to tell us that. The American people can do this without him.

Well, don’t forget Obama’s own gaffe when he discussed “The Bomb that fell on Pearl Harbor”.

Yep. Beck played it this morning. I was laughing like crazy!

Rush has a transcript, but will try and find the voice clip I heard this morning.

“Today is December 7th, the day that this government killed over 80,000 Japanese civilians at Hiroshima in 1941, two days before killing an additional 64,000 Japanese civilians at Nagasaki by dropping nuclear bombs on innocent people.”

I feel there will hardly be a peep from the MSM over Pearl Harbor but just you wait until August when they lament the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki ....

“Any preacher who dares to point out the simple ugly facts found in every field imaginable is demonized as volatile, controversial, incendiary, inflammatory, anti-American and radical,” Wright said, taking time out to note the thousands of Japanese civilians who died 67 years to the day when American warplane dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima. (Actually, Dec. 7 marks the day when the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor.)”

What gets me, he’ll get before the cameras and a microphone at the drop of a hat. So where is he today to mark this anniversary?

While I appreciate him making A statement considering how all he ever seems to do is apologize for the history of this nation, it was paper declaration (was it not?) and issued on the Friday before the Monday of the actual anniversary.

Probably written by a staffer (that was John Kerry’s excuse when a proclamation was made on St. Patrick’s Day and it had “Kerry” commenting on his own Irish heritage, which does not exist).

When Obama was heading to Japan, it was noted that he wished to visit Hiroshima and/or Nagasaki while in office.

For a guy who was in the Navy, this is breathtakingly ignorant. Now I understand how a man who uses the title Reverend obviously knows nothing about Christ’s teachings.

If he knew anything about history, he would know how scandalous this is:
