Obama Administration Decided to Block Access to Memorials
breitbart ^ | 2 Oct 2013 | Mike Flynn

Posted on 10/02/2013 10:44:16 AM PDT by RedMDer

On Monday, the first day of the government shutdown, a number of WWII veterans showed up at a memorial to their service to find that access had been blocked. The memorial is in a public space and is open 24/7, with almost no oversight from Park Police personnel. (Who, by the way, are exempt from the government shutdown.) The White House was, according to reports, informed of the veterans' visit and chose to block access.

You, sir, are an optimist.

I think he feels the need to be seen "doing something".

Obama obviously wants a shutdown or he would have issued an Executive Order against it.

That is being too nice to him, if you read the press
he “summoned them”. That doesn’t seem like asking to me.

If the government is shut down, why are the President and his family still living in government owned housing? Let them find a shack.

Correct. After the meeting he will make a unilateral decision and then say, “But we discussed this.” Obama is worthless, lying SOS.

Remember when Obumble asked Paul Ryan to sit in on a speech he gave on the budget....so he could insult and bludgeon Ryan in front of the world? If Ryan shows up for this one, he has no sense of honor. In fact, NONE of the Republicans should attend until this snake has apologized for calling them terrorists and hostage-takers.

I noticed that too, the “summoned”. I wish a lightning bolt would hit most of the centers of MSM.

If the media would stop treating this guy like a King, things would change rapidly.

Until then, he gets to act like one.

Repubs should not show up. This is between them and the Senate. The president can sign or veto what they produce.

For some reason I keep thinking about Egypt’s revolt...Morsi,friend of obama, had people killed, threw them in jail and destroyed the economy. He had the MSM marching beside his every word....but the people took to the streets and the military backed them against Morsi.....

PS. I hope they hang Morsi in public so we can watch it on good ol TV!
