Fewer and fewer families are directly impacted by war. They have no idea of the sacrifices of the war fighter, his/her family or the civilians who willingly put themselves in harms way to support the soldier.

These are very sad times in which we live.

Nothing about brave american falling on the field of battle EXER has anything at all to do with being more important than a photo op for this disgusting narcissistic POS.

He could probable tell you the average point per game for every member of his beloved Bulls or what his favorite golf hole is but he can’t even accurately recite the death of a MOH war hero?

If I were the family member I would have turned my back on him or disgraced him politically so as to retain the respect of my beloved son who gave his full final measure for our freedom.

0bama is a complete disgrace, and should earn the public scorn from every American who honors our brave fallen soldiers.

If he were ANY sort of man whatsoever, he would publicly apologize and ask to be forgiven be the members of this soldiers family.

IF he were a Man...

Wonder why YouTube disabled the comments?

I wonder why the hit counter seems to be stuck at 302. This isn't the first time I've seen 302 stuck on a youtube hit counter. Weird.

Send this around to everyone you know, media lists, etc and it will pop up in more places - just like Fast Furious is.

Great link and videos. Thanks for sharing. As stated in the article ....

"The troops (the men and women of the armed forces of the USA) are a good judge of character."

Needs his adderall dosage increased

I heard junkies smash up adderall and snort it. Considering Zero admitted snorting coke I would imagine he wouldn't follow the pharmaceutical advice on how to take the meds.

Just one more thing for the media to ignore. And the Monti`s will get NO apology from that stinking jerk.

I did enjoy those. The contrasts say it all. I love the commentary on that first/last video where Obama's reception is referred to as a "mostly tepid response."

And even those earlier speeches to the troops, Obama just keeps saying "I...I....I....me...I..."

How I loathe that man.

“you guys” is a constant refrain from Zero, and it’s the kind of forced “familiarity” you hear from your waiter at a restaurant who
keeps passing by your table saying “You guys all right?”.
All the while he’s just wsiting for his tip.
“You guys” delivered to soldiers in a context like this
carries so much screechy cognitive dissonance with it, it’s hard not to see it as BEYOND emotionally disconnected, and BEYOND condescension: ‘you guys’ are ‘doing your thing’, and I’m doing ‘my thing’, which for now means I’m presenting myself as someone who respects you and is honoring your service and sacrifice.Respect is something its very hard to fake, and emotion is something that should be apparent at some point in a service like this. Obama has no emotion; he’s above it all, and this little photo-op of his, not to mention his big blunder, once again proves how “cool” and detached he is.
It boggles the mind that this ‘guy’ is in the position he’s in. We just have to sit it out and make sure he gets tossed
next November.

“Comrade” another word he used, is apparently one that he is accustomed as using as a complement.

Hey, I remember from my History of the USSR class in college that "Comrade" was used during the various regimes from Lenin, Stalin, Kruschev, ect...

I was starting to post the entire link with those videos, but GTV beat me with the Youtube he posted.

The obvious lack of enthusiasm on part of the troops is so telling. This is a monster as CIC.

"mostly tepid response."

Damning with faint hand clapping. I loved it.

I can only imagine how that family must feel today.

Shows just how insincere and meaningless that whole ceremony was to him.

He pisses all over this country daily.

Excellent comments! And in Obamaworld, he probably “feels” that his is making a sacrifice just by being flown to Ft Drum and back. You know - walk across the WH lawn, climb into Marine One, climb out of Marine One, walk across the tarmac at Andrews, etc etc.

I am positive that he Never thinks about the amazing number of staff that are responsible for his daily flights to somewhere and the stress he might be placing on them and their families. He probably considers his ridiculous travel as ‘job creation.’

“Hey, I remember from my History of the USSR class in college that “Comrade” was used during the various regimes from Lenin, Stalin, Kruschev, ect.”

Yes, that was what I was referring to. Interestingly, it was also commonly used by the NAZIs. History just keeps repeating itself.

I am at least as appalled by his characterization of campaigning for president as his “service.”

Would have loved for the Monti`s to have interrupted him and straightened him out, but they would have probably feared for their lives if they had tried it. Hard telling what crap face would have done to them if they had.
