So what, are the far-right idiots going to blame the storm on Obama not being in Washington?
No; Obama, Pelosi and Reid will blame Bush for the storm.
That would be the FAR-LEFT IDIOTS, Manny
First of all, your first message doesn't make any sense whatsoever. Congratulations on a failed insult.
Second, great job on your use of all-caps. Really gets your point across. Thanks for correcting your typo, as well. We would have never understood your witty zinger.
And more thanks to be had, as you perfectly exemplified Manny's statement about "far-right idiots". You win the prize.
I see is as GOD IS SENDING A MESSAGE TO OBAMA!
Sure, just like 9/11 was God sending a message to Bush.
Idiot.
typo – I see IT as GOD IS SENDING A MESSAGE TO OBAMA!
People!
How about today, we ALL send a message TO God for all those who
gave the last full measure.
It was a storm. If God's sending any messages, it's being angry at the tragedy of war.
Who will bring any charge against those whom God has chosen? It is God who justifies. Romans 8:33 (NIV)
Why do that when he could text him? D-uh?
Get over yourself.
Sigh. Cheryll, you should go hang out with Pat Robertson.... You two could run for office. /sarcasm
I agree. We needed the rain out here, must be a message from God for Obama to keep doing the best he can.
If you need to find meaning in random events, go throw some dice around and convince yourself God is speaking in cryptic. Anything can be a message, but it seems only when you need it to be.
A political leader is a political leader, and rain is rain. No more, no less. If you don't like the way things are, then do what you can to change it.
Perfectly stated.
Don't give her any ideas, Dan. That's how we ended up with Sarah Palin.
Kudos, Mr President, for putting people before politics.
To the veterans out there, thank you for your service.
To the Gold Star Mothers, I am sorry for your loss. Thank you for your son's or daughter's service.
Thank you, Chuck. Finally someone who isn't concerned with petty insults and is keeping focused on the message of this day. And thank you again President Obama, for putting safety of the people first.
And a big thank you for the service of all our vets, including both my daughters, my father, all my uncles and my cousins.
Wow. I thought it was only the South – where I am surrounded – that was full of morons. I truly am in utter awe of people's stupidity.
If he'd been at Arlington, as he should have. Maybe he could have given the entire speech. "BEWARE THE HAND OF GOD"
President Bill Clinton went every year of his presidency, and President George W. Bush went each year except for the year he was in Europe to commemorate the D-Day anniversary. Presidents Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush did not attend regularly
I really like Obama and I support for him. http://www.englishtips-self-taught.blogspot.com
I think there is a sad note that is being missed, at least he took the time off to actually remember those who have fallen trying to protect things we take for granted (free Speech people). And think of this, though yes, it would have been better if he was at Arlington maybe it would have meant more. But think of this, with all of us being scared of Terrorist at least he was going some where were some could hear him say his message and that he was trying to do what he thought was right.
I like how all the war veteran spirits united as one and came together as a force of nature and kicked that fake black monkey president off the stage yay!! HIP! HIP! HORAY! HIP! HIP! HORAY! HIP! HIP! HORAY!

Dear God, some of you people are so ridiculous! You act like President Obama's shortened speech is this huge deal, but I'm sure very, very few of you actually tuned in to hear it. Let's be real for a second, okay? You were grilling outside, hanging with your family, and drinking beer. You didn't drop everything to listen to a guy that you don't like. So why do you care if his speech was shortened?
Also, do you really think it was wrong of him to ask that children be taken somewhere away from the severe elements? No, you don't. You dislike him, so nothing he does will ever be right in your eyes. I'm sure that if he'd gone through with his speech, you'd be outraged that he made people stand out there in that storm.
