Obama brags about killing Osama and winning the War on Terror.

But here is an imagined address that reveals what Obama would like to say if he could reveal what he really believes is his biggest military accomplishment:
___________________________________________
President Obama’s Bagram Air Field Address.
May 1, 2012

My fellow Americans, we’ve traveled through dark cloud of discrimination in our military for too long.

Here, in the pre-dawn darkness of Afghanistan — where we meet to help produce an ad for my reelection — we see the light of new day of tolerance about to break on the horizon for our military and nation.

I am here today to apologize to the thousands of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgendered men and women who have served their nation faithfully over these many years, but were forced to live a lie.

I am here to offer the hope of change!

For decades gay soldiers were forced to deny who they are, suffering under the flawed policies of the past that forbid same-sex loving in the ranks. No More!

This year my administration fought hard to put those antiquated restrictions aside. Now, thanks to our hard work, gay soldiers may choose to love openly in our armed forces.

When I was elected, I set the goal to defeat right wing bigots where ever we find them. Soon, we succeeded in eliminating the hypocritical ‘Don’t ask, don’t tell’ scourge upon our land.

Now for the first time, gay soldiers may date, marry, kiss before battle, play with soap and openly greet their partners with passion upon returning home.

Over the last three and a half years, my administration has been in direct discussion with gay rights groups to move forward on this glorious cause.

With this new policy the American people, and the world, should know that gay people have a friend and a partner in the United States military.

Our momentous actions mean that full Gay Rights is now within our reach! May that day break into a noon day sun upon our land.

Thank you and may something truly bigger-than-our-selves, such as God, Allah or Gia, bless America!

It’s truly telling how unexcited the troops are.
