        tough call.
        So because in your opinion the previous president blatantly messed up, that makes it OK for our current president to blatantly mess up also. Great logic...

          There was reason to go into IRAQ, Saddam broke the UN rules time and time again. It was enforceable by using military action. Though no large stashes of WMD's were found, they were found! Saddam up till the moment the "Coalition" Forces attacked said he had large stock piles of WMD's.

                But if he didn't say anything regarding the bp spill he would have been slammed for not saying anything.

                Also I understand Obama will be attending a service at a veterans memorial in Chicago. So I can't accept the argument that he doesn't care about veterans and is more concerned with his vacation. He's interrupting his vacation to show concern for veterans there. Or would you rather him spend taxpayer money to fly back to Washington for the service there?

                  Was that really necessary?

                  In all honesty, who fucking cares? It's not like we should expect much from our LEADERS. They have always failed us and they will continue to do so.

                    I would rather him take the month of JULY off than 4 days now and shit on veterans. Hes shirking out on those that gave their lives and are were returned home but NO one knows who they are. Those are the ones we all owe the greatest debt too.

                    Hes going to a service in Chicago more so for obligation not of his own respect. Because if he had respect for the military and the general populace, he would not be pulling this stunt along with all the other shit, that hes been up too. He is the commander and chief, show some fucking respect for those that have to follow your orders.

                    It should not surprise me though he all but told us everything he was going to do when he got into office, and the morons of this country bought it all hook line and sinker.

                          Critics falsely claim that Barack Obama is the only U.S. president not to lay a wreath at Arlington National Cemetery on Memorial Day.

                            If you notice, EVERY one of those Presidents were out of the country at the time. Semantics...

                              yes, I never said he was the 1st to do this. While most of the other instances there was a good reasons for not attending, such as being shot or attending more symbolic ceremonies for our honored dead that are buried in foreign lands.

                              While I still think its a douchebag move no matter who you are to not be there when you have no other duty bound engagements to attend. With 0 this is just another straw on the camels back that is just showing his true colors even more. His charter is coming out and this really should not surprise any of us, just another event to show case his disdain for the country he leads, just one event among many.

                                yes it was, but then you go and let me down by saying something that i whole heartly agree with about our countries leadership (congress, presidential,both parties) continually letting us down.
