I got this forwarded to me from my Aunt, & mom! And really I don't think I can even verbalize how I feel about this, so I was wondering if anyone else had seen anything or heard anything on this topic, and what your all's opinions/reactions are towards it....

----------------------------------
The media can spend hours on beer-gate but we don't hear about this.

>> Classification: UNCLASSIFIED
>> Caveats: NONE
>>
>> HERE IS HIS RESPONSE WHEN HE BACKED OFF FROM HIS DECISION TO LET THE
>> MILITARY PAY FOR THEIR WAR INJURIES.
>> WHAT AN EMPTY HEADED PERSON HE MUST BE....
>>
>> Bad press, including major mockery of the plan by comedian Jon Stewart,
>> led to President Obama abandoning his proposal to require veterans carry
>> private health insurance to cover the estimated $540 million annual cost
>> to the federal government of treatment for injuries to military
>> personnel received during their tours on active duty. The President
>> admitted that he was puzzled by the magnitude of the opposition to his
>> proposal.
>>
>> "Look, it's an all volunteer force," Obama complained. "Nobody made
>> these guys go to war. They had to have known and accepted the risks. Now
>> they whine about bearing the costs of their choice? It doesn't compute."
>> "I thought these were people who were proud to sacrifice for their
>> country, "Obama continued. "I wasn't asking for blood, just money. With
>> the country facing the worst financial crisis in its history, I'd have
>> thought that the patriotic thing to do would be to try to help reduce
>> the nation's deficit. I guess I underestimated the selfishness of some
>> of my fellow Americans."
>>
>>
>> Please pass this on to every one including every vet and their families
>> whom you know.
>>
>> How in the world did a person with this mindset become our leader? I
>> didn't vote for him!!!
>>
>> REMEMBER THIS STATEMENT... "Nobody made these guys go to war. They had
>> to have known and accepted the risks. Now they whine about bearing the
>> costs of their choice?
>>
>> If this man thinks he will ever get another vote from an Active Duty,
>> Reserve, National Guard service member or veteran of a military service
>> he ought to think it over. If you or a family member is or has served
>> their country please pass this to them. Please pass this to everyone.
>> I'm guessing that other than the 20-25 percent hardcore liberals in the
>> US will agree that this is just another example why this is the worst
>> president in American history. Remind everyone over and over how this
>> man thinks, while he bows to the Saudi Arabian king.

from what I can find some of its true, but not all of it? Idk I guess it's up to each individual to decide. I still don't know what I think about it all..

Well wait, how do you know that the snopes thing is accurate?

It honestly doesn't sound like something he probably really said, but you never know.

Either way I think the bill idea was completely outrageous an whoever came up with it is an idiot. I do honestly think that half of the people who voted for this guy are started to question their judgement and I still believe electing him was a HUGE mistake, but we'll see what else he comes up with...

haha might have been thinking it erin you crack me up!


4 years go by fast... I just hope the courts realize that they should unseal his birth records... because its been said that he went to college on a scholarship for FOREIGN students, which means he had to claim citizenship in a foreigh country... so how can he be american and the US president if he went to college on a foreighen student scholarship... things just dont add up. I cant really say how I feel, hes probably watching over all of us ready to jump at any military wife who speaks out against him... so thats my 2cents and all im saying.
