I believe WWII was the last time the American Military did anything for this country. These veterans deserve to be honored by all Americans.

All the wars/conflicts since have been nothing more than political BS. The saddest part is, the men & women that have fought in these post WWII conflicts/wars; return home only to be screwed. Screwed by the same politicians that sent them.

I have a wild, crazy idea. Instead of fighting each other, let's join together to fight against the ills of society. If we all, Democrat and Republican, got together and wrote our congressmen, this would be positive, this damn arguing, "He's no good", "No, you're no good," "You're a liar, " shit is wearing thin. We're adults, let's act like it. Those calling names will be left in our dust.

Let's get off Sarge. He's not the first and he certainly won't be the last to post something untrue.

June 6, 2013, the 69th anniversary of "D-Day", the largest invasion ever attempted, where 200,000 Americans stormed the beaches at Normandy to begin the final push to defeat Nazi Germany in WWII. D-Day marked the turning point in WWII in Europe ... Today, European heads of state make it a point to recall and honor the sacrifices of those who landed in Normandy , as do our Presidents.... well, most of them....

In the 69 years since D-Day, there are four occasions when the President of the United States chose not to visit the D-Day Monument that honors the soldiers killed during the Invasion.

The occasions were:

1. Barack Obama, 2010
2. Barack Obama, 2011
3. Barack Obama, 2012
4. Barack Obama, 2013


For the past 69 years, every American President except Obama have taken the time to honor the memory and sacrifices of the 6,000 American soldiers killed on D-Day. ...Except Obama!

June 6 2010,
Obama had no events scheduled.

June 6, 2011,
Obama met with the National Security team and was interviewed by WEWS Cleveland and WDIV in Detroit about the auto industry - FAR too busy to visit the D-Day memorial.

June 6, 2012,
instead of honoring our fallen soldiers, Obama made a campaign trip to California on Air Force 1 (at our expense) to raise funds for (his) upcoming election.

June 6, 2013,
Obama was doing ANOTHER fund raiser with the multimillionaires in the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee in Palo Alto , CA , once again at our expense.

America - Aren't you proud?


Four times in 69 years!!


SHAME ON AMERICA FOR ELECTING A NON-VETERAN PRESIDENT WHO DOES NOT DESERVE TO BE THE COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF: HE IS ABSOLUTELY A DISGRACE TO ALL WHO FOUGHT FOR THIS NATION AND GAVE THEIR LIVES.

But Oblame-O's war on America is not a good thing.

You're right you don't have to be a veteran BUT it would be nice if he knew how to run something.

Name one thing he ever ran, started or took responsibility for.

Don't say ACA, that was and is a total fiasco.

Green crap, another fiasco.

Foreign policy, Putin ate his lunch.

People he's appointed, all seem to be being investigated.

Promises?
ALL lies, except the one he made to the Russian guy when he thought no one could hear him.

President of all Americans, don't make us puke.

Transparent?
True, we can see right thru all his lies and half baked ideas.

Young lady there is nothing good about war, we did not start WW11, Hitler did, but remember this, if it was not for all those men and women who fought and died for our's and your freedom, you may not have been alive today, so the next time maybe you will not be so lucky.

In law school, he was president of the Harvard Law Review -- essentially making him the publisher of a successful monthly magazine -- meaning by the time he was 25, he had more business experience than most people.

Sorry, but ACA is already very successful, and growing more popular daily.

Sorry, but for every Solyndra, there are SEVEN government-supported Green companies, which are successful and paid back their loans.

Putin blinked on Ukraine. Plus bin Laden is gone. Qaddafi is gone. Mubarak is gone.

GWBush & Reagan are still WAY ahead in this regard, but instead of mere witch-hunt investigations -- they had actual convictions among their staffs.

70% partially or completely kept, according to Politifacts.
