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.
wish I could to screen caps
he just did an Elliot Spitzer lip implosion
“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?
Maybe were going to war with Iran..Somewhere in Iran, Mahmoud is saying “Hey Barack, buddy, I thought we were homies”
Some one should make a bumper sticker with that “Stop this Endless War” but strike through the war part and substitute “campaign”.
Good to hear this...I have Fox on but it is muted....
What, John McCain is “reaching across the aisle” again?
” I’ll be danged if I can understand ONE thing he’s said. “
There have been whole segments of this speech where it was apparent (mispronunciation, awkward pauses, stumbling on words) that *he* doesn’t understand the words he’s mouthing....
Obama’s now actually reading the Dem talking points about “Restructuring our military.” Now he’s saying that our troops need to be able to “speak the native languages of the people they meet overseas” (presumably so they can ask enemy troops why they are mad at us). I am not making this up. “We need to attack waste in military spending and it needs to stop. This is not apolitical issue but about supporting our troops.” Obama brings-up John McCain as a supporter of “restructuring our military.” Obama pats self on back for “cutting waste.” He’s now talking about programs (F-35, airborne laser anti-missile) and clearly has no idea what he’s talking about.
The look on his face as he’s talking says “I really don’t want to be here”.
Bigger applause this time - he told a joke.
He is a joke
That’s perfect. It really crystallizes what a pompous ass this clown really is.
“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?
Oops, my bad!! I meant Iraq. Thank for pointing that out!
He laughs at a nuclear attack.........what a smart ass.
rofl
Next time, TOTUS will upgraded with a sound track of thunderous applause
oh brother..veto bill with pork..oh yeah..sure..
Camera is locked on Obama. No view of those few applauding.
I I I I I I I I
it’s all about “I”
Just said a teleprompter psuedo-funny:
“if American were under nuclear attack, the last thing on my mind would be whipping up a snack:
“We will build the 21st century military we need.”
“We will fund more housing, more child care, more jobs so spouses can continue their careers.”
Stacked deck, like all the other forums the past few weeks.
now talking about PTSD....what a damn liar
Sorry I didn’t get to see the VFW speech. Hope there’s a video link someplace....:)
Won’t be long until he has an ‘applause’ sign and piped in applause too.
