[twyacht]

It just keeps getting worse from this classless POTUS. He is now officially WORSE than Jimmy Carter...Why am I not surprised?

Officially a Scumbag. Go ahead and send Darth Rahm to my house and I'll explain it to him.

Media conservatives slam Obama's Memorial Day plans as "offensive" to soldiers

Beck criticizes Obama over wreath laying, says he is "sick and tired of people believing the lie" that Obama "has respect for the soldiers." Glenn Beck stated, "Obama is skipping out on a Memorial Day ceremony at Arlington Cemetery because he'll be in Chicago on vacation. I'm sorry, I don't ever, ever question the president's vacation. I didn't under Bush, I didn't under Clinton, I don't under Obama." He later stated: "I have no problem with the man taking a vacation. But I am sick and tired -- sick and tired -- of people believing the lie that this administration has respect for the police or has respect for the soldiers of our country. I'm tired of it." [Premiere Radio Networks' The Glenn Beck Program, 5/25/10]

Erickson: "Obama skipping the Tomb of the Unknowns this weekend for Chicago is offensive." In a Twitter post, CNN contributor and RedState blogger Erick Erickson wrote: "Obama skipping the Tomb of the Unknowns this weekend for Chicago is offensive. Chicago can wait. The Commander-in-Chief has a job to do."

Malkin guest blogger: "Boy, I'm starting to think that West Point speech wasn't from the heart." On MichelleMalkin.com, guest blogger Doug Powers wrote: "President Obama went to Arlington Cemetery to lay the wreath last year, but this year Obama's handing the wreath to Plugs and heading off to the more welcoming political climes of Chicago." Powers later added: "Obama will however make it back to Washington in time to honor Paul McCartney next week. Boy, I'm starting to think that West Point speech wasn't from the heart."

JammieWearingFool: "Obama Blows Off Arlington Visit on Memorial Day," in a "slap in the face to our veterans." Right-wing blogger JammieWearingFool wrote that Obama's plans for Memorial Day are "[a]nother slap in the face to our veterans." He also stated: "Poor baby needs some rest, so he's going to Chicago. Will probably take in some relaxing fundraising and golf or something."

Well, maybe whoever go's in his place, will actually care.

I too, weep for my country.

You mean like Biden, who stated a few days ago that Brussels should be the next capital of the free world! Losers, all of 'em.   

The Commies who strung Mussolini up may have been Commies, but I like the way they worked with Mussolini!

This is why I'm really not worried about the dear leader being able to turn our military against us. He spits on them and then expects their loyalty? Fat chance. Last time I checked they still taught honor in the military.

So did GHW and Ronnie at times.  No I don't like the SOB but he ain't the first to do this.

It is shameful for any President to miss Memorial Day at Arlington....national emergencies excluded if necessary...

Whether the sitting POTUS finds it necessary or not, the Office of the President has sent our soldiers to fight and die for our country.

Honoring those how have lost their lives in all past generation is the duty, responsibility and should be the honor of EVERY Commander In Chief.

I for one am glad this one world POS will not be soiling honorable events with his sleazy presence.

Lets also not forget that he is going on vacation while we still have that oil spill in the gulf..... What if Bush did it?
