A grim post-Memorial Day reminder of the costs of war and the necessary sacrifice of WWII veterans to preserve our freedoms. Thank you to all who have preserved our freedoms and freedom around the world.

I have been to the Hiroshima “Peace” memorial. The exhibits are all presented like, one fine, sunny August morning, the USAAF unleashed this terrible weapon upon us and what you see is the results of that terrible day. Since then we, the Japanese people are for nuclear disarmament and we are pacifists.

There is no mention of WHAT actually led up to this cataclysmic event. No mention of Imperial Japan's conquests and blood thirst. There is no mention of events that led up to the dropping of the bomb.

At least the Krauts have tried to do some soul searching, the Japanese...nada...

What was Obama thinking? Is he on drugs?

The Chichijima incident (also known as the Ogasawa incident) occurred in late 1944, when Japanese soldiers killed and consumed five American airmen on Chichi Jima, in the Bonin Islands.

On 7 Oct 1943, Rear Adm. Shigematsu Sakaibara, commander of the Japanese garrison on Wake Island, orders the execution of 96 Americans POWs, claiming they were trying to make radio contact with U.S. forces.

The Palawan Massacre is another example of their barbarism and cruelty.

Ad then Obama had the gall and nerve to show his face at Arlington National Cemetery on Memorial Day to honor our own war dead. What a cheap, sleazy ba$+ard.

“It is truly unfortunate that the POTUS put the politically correct anti-nuclear agenda ahead of honoring America’s veterans and the sacrifices they and their families made this Memorial Day.”

No, it is not unfortunate. It is a calculated and deliberate slap in the face. He is the enemy within.

Our ‘President Dumba*&’ is your very typical Liberal. He thinks if he doesn’t talk about the facts, then they DON’T exist.

However, facts are funny things. THEY are positively immutable (it’s why they are called FACTS). All Liberals have a hell of a time with that.

I wonder what it’s like living in THAT world.
