Obamas philosophical speech to the 2014 graduates of West Point about a new direction for Americas foreign policy was not a great speech for that audience, said CNN anchor Jim Clancy on Wednesday.

I think I’d probably openly vomit if I were forced to watch that hateful dictator in person.

I saw a few min. of this Krap speech. Obama can’t get his groove on if he is not speechifying in front of a union crowd and hearing their adoring cheers!

I hope the Secret Service is keeping him away from GUNS, KNIVES AND BMWS. Women I not so sure are a problem.

Oh, did they think that their graduation ceremony was going to be about them? With the Hindenburg ego delivering? Not too likely.

These are the General and field officers of tomorrow. Let us pray that they will be pure in heart and that their CIC will love God and country.

Exactly right. Unless Obama is in front of an adoring rent-a-crowd he sounds like a dolt. This is why Obama never strays from friendly crowds or the teleprompter. So conveniently, every time you see the guy it he sounds amazing and looks great with people swooning. The reality is, like most of Obama himself, it's all an illusion.

I wish a group of the graduates would have gotten together and turned their backs on El Presidente.That would have ended their careers.

That is just one more explanation to answer the question many have about why the military is accommodating a Dictatorial tyrant. Any hope we have of the military taking the side of the People when the MarxoFascists take their revolution to the next phase, is in vain.
As it is, Obama’s civilian security force is now almost as powerful, as well equipped and as well funded as the military.

They may have guns and ammo, but they have no heart or soul for the battle. They will fold like a cheap suit when faced by someone armed and not willing to bend over and take it.

Who the hell was applauding, the press? Cause that’s what it sounded like. Doubt anyone else was.

“I didnt hear the speech (thank goodness!), but is it true that he preached to the cadets about global warming?”
Yes, he talked about “climate change” In the global context and how it affects “American exceptionalism” to have certain members of Congress (i.e. Republicans) denying it.
