LIVE: Obama speaks before silent VFW audience
Fox News Channel

Obama is speaking before the VFW now. Except for a dozen people or so, they are sitting on their hands. Vets know who the real Obama is. Occasional applause for apple pie statements. For the most part, silence.

Was the head of the VFW really on Fox news this morning, praising Obama?? I saw that on another thread and couldnt believe it.I can confirm it. He went beyond where he had to go to just be polite.

VFW Leadership was clobbered. I sent one of the nastiest emails I ever sent to the head of the VFW. Told him that he dishonered my Father and other Vets who fought for this Country.

Any word on demonstrators outside the venue? I hear there are both pro-Obama and anti-Obama protestors. Any word on which group is better represented? Any pictures? There’s gotta be plenty of Phoenix area FReepers ‘round here!!

Here’s a DUmmy’s take on the speech...
this conservative crowd is liking what obama is saying about cutting
waste in defense spending, such as the f-22 and no-bid contracts, to make the military more efficient, and taking care of vets by improving the va and the g.i. bill.

He wouldn’t know pork if it bit him! Then again, I guess that makes sense seeing as he’s a Muslim and all...
I wonder if the WH Chef has served pork at any of the dinner receptions since Obama was inaugurated? Then again, all his Muslim buddies KNOW he’s practicing Taqqiya, so that wouldn’t even matter, would it?
Anyway, good to hear the vets can still recognize BS.

Obama’s going to have to learn to stay away from rooms he hasn’t packed with hand picked supporters.

LOL, Kakaze. And while in the bathroom on AF1 you just KNOW he'll be doing a Stuart Smalley in the mirror: "I'm good enough, I'm smart enough, and gosh darn it, people LIKE me."
I'm thinking that when he looks in the mirror he kinda pinches his ears back and open-mouth smiles in a fake no-cares laugh way, like he's in a Men's Warehouse ad. Guy on the go and all, doncha know.

When will this endless campaign be over? Zero is pathetic...That is all he knows how to do. It is all he has ever done in his entire life. Campaigning is his resume. He has not so much as had a paper route or worked in a fast food joint or owned a hot dog stand. He campaigns. That's what he does. That's who he is.
