It is worth noting, people, that obama bin lying has NEVER visited Ground Zero since he was elected, and only with the greatest reluctance BEFORE he was elected. yet today, he lays a wreath. I so despise this man.

9/11 Family Invited To Presidential Ground Zero Visit Snubs Obama (Sent form letter email invite)

NEW YORK (PIX11)—As 50 carefully selected families prepare to join President Barack Obama for a ceremony at the World Trade Center site Thursday, one of the invited 9/11 families have decided to pass on the Commander-in-chief’s visit.

Although many consider it to be a once in a lifetime invitation, the Vigiano family of Deer Park, Long Island have respectfully declined.

“If this form letter was the invitation, it was kinda lame,” John Vigiano told PIX 11 News when describing the email invitation sent to him from the White House.

Jan and John Vigiano received the email invite Tuesday and admitted that they nearly deleted it, thinking it was spam.

What rubbed the Vigiano’s the wrong way was not what the email said, but how it was addressed.

“It says ‘Dear 9-11 family member,’ - no names” “ John Vigiano said, reading the invite aloud to PIX 11 cameras. “I don’t know if its disrespectful, but it doesn’t work for me.”

The Vigianos lost both their sons on September 11, 2001. John Vigiano Jr. was 36, and a FDNY firefighter, while their youngest Joe Vigiano was an emergency services detective with the NYPD.

“There is no closure,” a sobbing John Vigiano said. “There is none.”

As I recall, mccain and the big-eared one went to ground zero before the election. Didn’t he just kind of toss some flowers into the pool? And I don’t think the wookie was there with him. This is all a photo-op to him.
