WASHINGTON – Two heroes of the Fort Hood massacre will be honored guests at Wednesday night's State of the Union speech.

Sgts. Kimberly Munley and Mark Todd – the Fort Hood police officers who stopped the rampage, in a firefight that left Munley badly wounded – will watch the speech from first lady Michelle Obama's box.

Army Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan has been charged with killing 13 people on Nov. 5 at Fort Hood, in the worst mass murder on a U.S. military installation, before Munley and Todd managed to intercede. Hasan is paralyzed.

Congress and the military continue to investigate the missed warning signs about Hasan, a psychiatrist who had communicated with a radical Yemini-American cleric.

We are independent thinkers here.

I would suggest that starting on the instruction #1 for thinking would not be an option. Rules For Thinking 1. Pick up your thinking cap and secure to the top of your head before proceeding.

She isnt rewarding them with anything.

Hussein will point them out as sitting with his wife and use them in some manner.

That;s right he will USE them.

Amazing to see the circle of life - in 1978 I was in Wiesbaden Germany with the 10th Cavalry when then President Carter came for a visit. The dog and pony show was incredible. I took guard duty for the night before so I could sleep through it.

I have always believed if you talk to them or allow them to “use” you - they will think you approve of them. I show that ilk utter disdain - just walk away!

Did the same thing at Aviano Italy when the KKKlintons came to visit. Made sure I was not in a position to be "volunteered" to be part of the crowd detail.

When I was at Andrews, just before my retirement, that was a regular feature of life...not only was there crowd detail, but they made us change into civvies and cheer...every time the danged airplane landed there (yes, it got old...fast).

You were part of the forced military “applauders” for Bubba Clinton at Andrews AFB?

See - all those years we knew and talked about such forced/staged “receptions” for Bitlery here but you’re the first “eyewitness” to such goings on that I have read.

Thanks for the insight.

That’s a shame.

Real heroes sitting with and being used by real Marxist cowards.

Yup.

Trusting fools who believe this is an honor.
The reality is they are being used by evil doers who with their help, will continue to do evil.

Sad. Just sad.

Nice of her to reward them with them honor.

Whoa...she is doing nothing of the sort. Those "honors" are not bestowed by her. She holds no authority in the matter. She only has to tolerate their presence, be gracious, and smile. That honor comes from the President. Look to this speech to be a huge re-establishment effort of his cult personality hype.

Other than at white America, of course.

will watch the speech from first lady Michelle Obama's box.

Famous words in the military: "Never volunteer for anything"....I'd have made an exception even if it meant volunteering for latrine duty.....

She is a Christian.

That's a joke. She is a believer in Black Liberation Theology.

When I was at Robins AFB, vehicles with anti-KKKlinton bumper sticjers were stopped at the gates. Officers were warned that they would be court-martialed under Art. 88 for anti-Clinton speech and enlisted were threatened under Art. 92. Fun days </sarc>

I'm sure it's no better now and likely far worse for the folks on Active Duty.

Jeez, that’s what these people do - wrap themselves in the flag that they constantly denegrate to deflect the fact...MO has never “hung out” with heroes before in her life...

I for one would like the first lady to stop being a hypocrite, telling a graduating class at UC Merced to work for “the good of mankind (or something)”, not for personal gain while she swans about in designer, hideously expensive duds - really, if you are someone who lives with the motto “What is good for thee is not for me”, own it! She is bitter, resentful, pampered and lives in her own little, exclusive world - and wants to tell me how to live mine - no thank you!
