Im glad the lyin traitor wont stain that hallowed ground!

Obama’s speech would have to contain the lie /line “You can keep you freedom if you like it” To be any where close to being remembered a year from now,

[lee martell]

He does not believe in the core meaning of the Gettysburg Address, and most Americans wearing their Thinking Caps do not believe in Obama’s integrity anyway, so for once, we’re even.

[Iron Munro]

[Theodore R.]

He won’t show up because Gettysburg is a very complicated matter, and he likely couldn’t even name the main generals in the battle.

[Theodore R.]

I would think his favorite president other than himself would have to be clintoid.

[Theodore R.]

The American people don’t understand socialism and don’t see an American president as a “socialist”. They are, we may agree, vastly uninformed.

[Theodore R.]

I don’t know; there are many historians firmly on the left and admire Obama.

[Theodore R.]

I bet he could not name all the presidents by name in order of service. And while such might be considered “trivia”, it would be nice if a president could name all of his predecessors. For instance, if a reporters asked him when Andrew Jackson was President, I suspect he wouldn’t have a clue.

[onedoug]

I wouldn’t want him soiling any place of honor, anywhere.

Seven Score and Ten years later, Obama brought forth on this continent a transformed nation full of disdain and misery, bankruptcy and debt, racial hatred and class warfare, to test whether that former nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated could possibly remain on the face of this Earth...

Clown Prince nobama will refuse to be at any public event at which the crowd is not 100% controlled. He doesn’t do booing, ridiculing, the throwing of rotton vegetables or hissing well. Clown Prince nobama will not be questioned or disrespected.

After what that POS did to our veterans during the Obama-Reid shutdown, Obama shouldn’t be allowed to set foot in any Federal Park or Soldiers’ National Cemetery.

Impeach and Imprison...

[Windflier]

I’m sure Obama knows a lot more about the history of Marxism, than he does about U.S. history. Everything about our nation is illegitimate in his mind, and not worthy of his acknowledgement. The man flat out hates this country.

I don’t know; there are many historians firmly on the left and admire Obama.

By "historians" I meant not mainstream historians but the local WBTS researchers and writers as well as the "living historians" who study the era and show up at the annual Remembrance Day ceremonies and festivities that Gettysburg hosts. There are only a few liberals among them.

[ridesthemiles]

Barry does NOT admire Lincoln.

He only admires HIMSELF.

That is another plank in his carefully crafted campaign to fool America.

[gundog]

What did Dodo do?

[ntnychik]

TOTUS had a glitch in downloading the last phrase.

[tanknetter]

Talked about herself (something she’s very good at), LBJ and how Gettysburg was really all about every Liberal cause out there today. Including (I think) gay marriage.

Although I have no evidence of it, I’m convinced that she was pretty well trashed from drinking all the small bottles of booze in her hotel minibar ...

[Gamecock]

He has no connection to slavery, unless of course his ancestors sold other black folk into bondage.
