Angry Obama orders GI death benefits restored

A "very disturbed" President Obama has ordered his top aides to restore death benefits today for families of military service members killed in action.

"The president was very disturbed to learn of this problem," said White House press secretary Jay Carney. "The president expects this to be fixed today. He was not pleased."

It’s all about bad press!!! SEeeeee. We are not powerless. Get out there on the blogs and on twitter and give the communists a what-for!

Barry keeps claiming that he never knows about anything that happens. He didn’t know about Behghazi, F&F, IRS, spying scandal, James Rosen scandal.

I am beginning to believe him. HE DOESN’T KNOW. He really is clueless and lazy, he doesn’t really care about anything but the destruction of our country.

He isn’t even aware enough to be called a puppet. Just keep him in the dark or on the golf course, or surrounded by celebrities. He is only the “American Idol” star.

Hold the line GOP & don’t buckle!!

Does the refusal of Commander in Chief Obama to pay for the Funeral expenses of HIS dead Warriors rise to the level of an Impeachable Offense?

“Generally, dereliction of duty refers to failure through negligence or obstinacy to perform one’s legal or moral duty to a reasonable expectation. In other words, it means willful or negligent failure to perform assigned duties or performing them in a culpably inefficient manner. Dereliction of duty is a specific offense in military law. “ (Quote from USLegal.com).

Dereliction of duty is an Impeachable Offense, as stipulated in the US Constitution. Dereliction of duty is also a US Military offense subject to a US Military Courts Martial.

Will our sorry Congressional RINOs do their usual kid gloves, “boys will be boys” approach to Obama’s numerous violations of the US Constitution, or will they FINALLY draw up The Articles of Impeachment for B. Hussein Obama?

Its nice that he’s having to dodge bullets for a change. He’s certainly made most conservatives life a living hell the past 5 years with all the changes for the worst and absolutely no hope. Richard Nixon is owed an apology big time since Barry’s done at least a 100 times more impeachable offenses than Nixon ever thought about doing...

" This just proves to the public that he can change any of these arbitrary closings and cuts that he wants to.

He’s just being spiteful and immature. "

So the people are starting to see that all the blame falls right back on his door step.

That damn Chuck Hagel....did it again. Not my fault.

Am I allowed to say Bullshute?

"The president was very disturbed to learn of this problem,"

Yeah, right. He probably ordered it to happen!! Now he has to rescind it due to the media coverage. He's probably pissed at his media for covering it, too (you know, his "mainstream" media?)!

[Mortrey]

People should refer to The Whitehouse as “The Spitehouse” while Benghazi Barry squats there.

(Seeing your post reminded me of this comment from another site— I’m stealing it!)

It should have never happened. A Republican President would fire someone over this.

[commish]

This was pure Kabuki Theater.

Obama Knew the Pentagon was going to announce this, he knew there would be outrage, and the plan all along was for him to look FORCEFUL and ORDER the Pentagon to restore the benefits.

This was totally planned out from the beginning.

"The president is very disturbed"

We know.

[cuban leaf]

Who’s running this show?

I’ve said since the beginning of the year that the country will not survive an obama second term. All the scandals and other events only confirm my belief in this.

And now, frankly, I sometimes wonder if the events we are seeing are telling us that we are in the final months, weeks, or even days.

This administration is losing control, and rapidly, of both itself and the discussion. What will they do when utterly cornered?

[Repealthe17thAmendment]

Yep - if he can order this expenditure, then no other “pain point” is necessary either, and falls entirely on him.

Exactly!

I wouldn't expect the press to pick this up, however. They still want to put all the blame on GOP.

If he really wanted to correct the situation with the fallen servicemen, he should fire whoever allowed the benefits to be suspended.

I think the quote is wrong, it was meant to say “Obama is VERY disturbed..PERIOD” my butt cheek he was upset about this, he ORDERED IT..Obama despises our military, despises America and everything she represents

[The Great RJ]

Obama only relented when the scandal hit the news wires I’m sure members of Congress and maybe even the families of these fallen heroes had contacted him before. Had this not gotten media play on Fox News Obama would have done nothing.

” - - - - “The president was very disturbed - - - “

Yes Jay Carney, we have known that for over 4 years now - - - .

[American Constitutionalist]

Yeah but actions speak louder than news and his actions and personality proceeds him so people will see that he is all phoney and no integrity.

[RitaOK]

Nice. Great early observation!
