LIVE: Obama speaks before silent VFW audience

Fox News Channel | 8/17/09

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.

[tgusa]

He probably can’t wait to get out of there.

The Sounds of Silence. Hey, maybe I’ll write a song.

[RetroSexual]

Unless of course the teleprompter is broken on one side. Then he doesn’t head flip at all.

[NorCoGOP]

Il Duce used to love his head flips and nods....

...seems "the None" tried to learn from the master....

[aragona]

He just committed to pulling out ALL troops from Iran in 2011.

What happened to his first 6 months in office promise. LOL

His word means nothing.

[pabianice]

"In Afghanistan we will be there to help the Afghanis defeat Al Queda." Silence. "We need to fully adapt to the post-Cold War years. The current troop mix is 20 years out of date and is unacceptable." Obama staff applauds. "So we need to ask hard questions about the weapons we buy" (I guess this explains Obama's gutting of the Navy). Silence. This is painful. LOL!

[Dscott_FR]

The silence is deafening....do you hear the echo? This is awesome.

[RC2]

This guy cannot speak from the heart. He continues to read from a teleprompter. Does he really think people don’t see this? What does he know about being a Commander in Chief? He knows nothing about the military. God help our troops and I hope we have better than good Military Commanders.

OBAMA'S BRIDGE TOO FAR

THE STORM UNLEASHED ON AMERICA

A PETITION ON FACEBOOK FOR CONSTITUTIONAL RESTORATION

[GOP Poet]

OMG. I was just watching this and commenting on the same thing to my husband sure enough I go to FR and it is the first post. LOL. You can feel the lack of love. Finally. No manufactured, hand picked audience like the 'Health Care Town Hall Meetings' Montana, Colorado Marxist conventions.

[justkate]

I turned down the volume b/c he sounds like he’s reading the back of a cereal box.

Where’s that legendary charisma?

[Sparko]

[Centaur]

I’ll be danged if I can understand ONE thing he’s said. Sounds like blather to me.

[SpinnerWebb]

From the news desk of any SRM outlet:

Obama wows Vets speechless

Obama delivered his global-saving message of healthcare reform to former American terrorists, as they listened raptly in reverent silence....

Film at 11

[Kakaze]

He is such a damned liar.......where is the lightning bolt?

[9422WMR]

“He just committed to pulling out ALL troops from Iran in 2011.”
I was not aware we had troops in IRAN? Maybe you meant Iraq?

[Sarah Barracuda]

His words have NO meaning. He is a Marxist. Every word out of his mouth is a damn lie

[BamaDi]

I did just that in Houston in the early 90s. Al Gore came to town to award one of his hokey golden hammers and my boss made me go (I was with DoJ). I on on the 2nd row pretty close to the middle and never unfolded my arms the entire time. When we got back in the car my boss told me I should have at least pretended I wasn’t po’d about being there and politely applauded and I told him not in my lifetime would I ever clap for some dumbass lib.....he cracked up!

[Pharmer]

” A rabbi, a priest, and a mullah were riding in a car together and uh... (THUMP, THUMP, THUMP) HELLO, anyone one there?? Someone must have put a mickey in the booze!!! Gee! Tough room! (crickets)”

[gimme1ibertee]

What would have been even better would have been=ooops...wait...brain cramp...sorry..
Should read, "It would have been better if the Vets reamined silent,but turned their backs on Zero when he reached the podium".
DAMN MEDS!
