Is that disrespectful? Absolutely. It’s beyond disrespectful. I’m ashamed to say it.
But it’s true.
What are you watching here? This is Obama, speaking at Fort Drum and justifying his willy-nilly pullout of Afghanistan in front of the 10th Mountain Division. And he references SFC Jared Monti of the 10th Mountain as being the first Medal of Honor recipient not to get the award posthumously.
Except Jared Monti was dead when he got the award. He was killed in action in 2006. Those are his parents in the picture as Obama presented them with Monti’s MOH.
The soldier Obama must have been thinking about is SSG Sal Giunta, of the 173rd Airborne. Giunta was the first living MOH recipient from Iraq and Afghanistan. It was a really big deal when Obama gave him the award; even non-political people knew about it.
It’s not the kind of thing a president who goes on and on about what an honor it is to recognize the troops would forget. And yet he just resurrected a Medal of Honor recipient.
Unless Jared Monti is Lazarus, this is a gaffe of mind-boggling proportions. This is worse than anything the Left can point to Sarah Palin or Michele Bachmann or Dan Quayle or W for.
And this was off-the-cuff. This wasn’t some dumb staffer loading factual mistakes into the teleprompter. This was Obama’s brain.
Don’t come to me with how brilliant this guy is. He’s not brilliant. He’s an airhead bullshit artist who lacks class, knows diddly poo about the real world, couldn’t give a rat’s butt about the country or the people in it and isn’t qualified to lead this country for one more year, much less four.
Really. Think you can ever forget this?
Nobody forgets that. Nobody lets the names of the folks honored in these ceremonies slip his mind.
What else do you expect when we have total dumbasses for an electorate?
Need I remind you that before him we had Bush,Clinton,Clinton,Bush,and Bush?
Hell,electing that retard was almost anti-climatic.

For as much as you hate Bush, how did you feel about him in early 2000? I've looked back over his campaign promises, and sans 911, he was the exact same guy he claimed he would be. For whatever you think about his Presidency, he was/is a decent man, unlike the Kenyan.
Now, I know I’m not going to change the minds of any of the True Believers…those who read all of Reverend Al’s sermons, and say things like, “You know, global warming can mean warmer OR colder, wetter OR drier, cloudier OR sunnier, windier OR calmer, …”. Can I get an ‘amen’??

I hated him then,too. His only positive was that he wasn't Goober Gore. He was and is 1 percent smarter and 10 percent less corrupt.

Yes,he was. I,and I am sure others,were hoping he was lying in order to get Dim votes,but instead he was true to his word and WAS a Dim.
he was/is a decent man,
Compared to Goober Gore and John Wayne Kerry he was,and that's about the best you can say for him.

So why was Bush the problem?

Because he was and is nothing but a Dim in Republican clothing.

Everything about that asshole is a negative. He is living truth that the Horse Apple (Boy Jorge) doesn't fall far from the Horse's Ass (Poppy).
