Annapolis, Md. - President Obama used a commencement speech before Naval Academy graduates on Friday to urge them to follow an inner compass and to warn that rising numbers of sexual assaults in the military threatened to erode Americas faith in the armed forces.

Just one of the many reasons I got my commission through OTS (not to mention the fact that I wasn’t remotely qualified for the service academies out of high school). At OTS/OCS, you’re done in 13 weeks and you get some general as a guest speaker. The one I had as a guest speaker back in ‘85 was about as interested in being there as I was in what he had to say.
But the fly-by was cool...please don’t tell me they cancelled the Blue Angels fly-over at today’s commencement because of another Obama brainstorm, sequestration.
Did he allow the graduates to wear their ceremonial swords? A couple years ago when he spoke at graduation, the Mids were prohibited from wearing them. It was disgraceful! Congratulations to your sons BTW.
No, I didn’t assume it was all “on female” assaults, but the MSM sure wants us to make that assumption.
