Obama’s comment is rather telling in that it is precisely how the left views the military e.g. handing out chocolate to children, digging latrines, building hospitals... all on the taxpayer dime.
They were all thinking of how they serve and as they have said, “America is at the mall.” It is a sore spot for them, dumb speech writers. PLUS, their CommunityOrganizer-In-Chief is either on the golf course, cutting their benefits, or on vacation. Has he ever served them? Rhetorical.
He makes me sick to my stomach.
Awwwwwww.
It sounds like Bambam attended the John Kerry School of Joke Telling. He probably got an Affirmative Action Passing Grade.
Trust me on this.
Anyone want to bet Obama was furious when he left the stage? My guess is, he’ll find a way to get back at the military for daring to disrespect our Glorious Dear Leader.
I’m sure he instructed the media to find negative stories about our military. But heck, the media doesn’t need instructions from this pig to attack our military.
I would have been at sick call, even if it meant getting a dozen vaccinations/immunizations...no way in hell I would have been in that hangar.
They selflessly protect American lives in an age of incalculable international danger.
So... you know... lower their pay and cut their health benefits while driving crowds of the best out of the military.
Then show up somewhere to regale them with your egotism and self-satisfied bullsh*t and be stupid enough to believe you’re popular.
Obama at his worst and most deluded.
Is the feckless fool on the hill tone deaf, stupid, or just plain incompetent? Alex, I’ll take “Threes” for five hundred.
The Asian chick on the left cracked a faint smile, but I can’t tell if she’s laughing with him or at him.
Wow. So this little piss ant was just forty minutes southwest of me today? No wonder the air stank.
He’s not funny. He’s a tone-deaf sociopath.
Even his words before that are entirely empty. ‘When we go to dance recitals ... you don’t ... because you give ... are so selfless ... and you keep on giving ... and you’re always giving. When we have Christmas ... you don’t ... because you’re always giving blah blah blah.’
When GW talked to the troops, he didn’t have to repeat things in Jeremiah Wright baptist church triplets with soaring rhetorical flourishes looking at the sky even as his eyeballs were trained on TOTUS.
GW was not perfect, but when he said “Thank You,” it was simple and sincere, received, and everyone got on with business.
This being is not even human.
Grrr.
He’s a total ass.
response after watching the video
what a freakin ass
forget the ‘joke’ that fell flat. everything else he was saying made our servicemen seem like chumps.
Vacuum in a suit....
Obama has never even wished to serve in the US military. The troops know Obama to be a coward and a fake.
This is not Obama’s last bit of idiocy with the US military. Soon he will be disposing of them as his personal cannon fodder.
