President Obama ordered flags be lowered to half staff in honor of service members killed on July 16 by a gunman in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Mohammad Abdulazeez, 24, shot four Marines, a sailor and a police officer. The Marines and sailor died from their injuries. "Our thoughts and prayers as a Nation are with the service members killed last week in Chattanooga. We honor their service," President Obama said in a statement on Tuesday.

Well, he probably just now found out that the flag at half-mast order hadn’t been issued by reading the newspapers. And he is outraged...outraged and angry, I tell you.

Bam-Bam can go fsck himself.
That’s different. Whitney was the right color. The murdered servicemen were not.
Love how they report it as ho hum, nothing to see here. No mention that he was forced to do it. And that he waited 5 days. But the drive readers on Google/Yahoo/Facebook will see the headline and think, oh what a great guy.
Little confused about comment. Wow on Christie.
I am sorry I just don’t believe that Whitney Houston deserved a military honor. Did she serve anyone besides herself?
I think, just like the governors, they were waiting expectantly for the POTUS to order it. When it became clear once again that the POTUS is a floating TURD, the governors and Boehner ordered it.
Truth be told, these liberals, socialists and communists in this country knew that Planned Parenthood was selling “BABY PARTS” next door to the ABORTION MILLS. Yep, the well known open “SECRET” that these “CHOP SHOPS” were next door to the abortion mills. It wasn’t until this organization against abortion that this “OPEN SECRET” was exposed.

Mast is aboard a ship.

True, but at least she’ll always love you...oooo...
That’s the ticket!
What damage is done? The only people who are aware of this are people who don’t like the dictator. The dictator’s minions don’t care and, even if they did, they won’t hear about it. They only watch the dictator approved media.
Dragged kicking and screaming.
How long did it take “Obie from Nairobi” to lower the flags
when Whitney Houston died of an overdose?
It never happened. It was only done in New Jersey where she came from.
Yeah, Like anybody believes he cares. To him the flag is simply another prop to use for his own sinister purposes.
“Bam-Bam can go fsck himself.”
Hey! That’s Reggie’s job! And probably many more down at “Man’s Country”.
