President Live at the American Legion Convention (Updated)

Barack Obama

The word is that he’s going to mention someone who we all know.

Thanks to David for the link.

UPDATED: If you missed it, here’s what he said about the VA improvement. You’ll notice he has replaced “I” and “me” with “we”.

UPDATED Again: Here’s the whole 36 minutes;

    I thought this organizations were supposed to be apolitical?

    Obammy is 24/7 political.

    1. Green Thumb

      I agree.

      Wonder what the AL really wants?

    2. Old Trooper

      The AL IS apolitical. Obama is the sitting President, so that’s who shows up.

      Would I believe a word that comes out of his mouth? Not a chance.

  2. More importantly, take whatever he says he’s going to do for vets, and then do just the opposite to fuck us.

    At least that’s how it’s going so far.

    November 2016 can’t come soon enough. What an empty suit!

    Is he going to mention me?

    1. Nah, he said something about that genius, damn good looking, hung like a bear nuke.

      So I guess I’m out.

      1. SJ

        Who did He mention? Chevy? The loon out west? I can’t stand to listen to Him to find out.

        1. He was supposed to mention TSO, but then he didn’t.

          1. SJ

            In what context? Great Beards?

            1. As an Afghanistan vet. I thought maybe he was going to get blamed for our (lack of a) policy in Iraq, but, no.

      2. Jabatam

        I’m dying to know what a bear nuke is

        1. Hondo

          Someone assigned to guard the igloos for a B52 wing at Mountain Home or Malmstrom who spent a little too much time out in the elements, I think.

          Or maybe one of the members of a silo crew for one of the Titans near Tucson, AZ, on a summer day when the AC went kaput. (smile)

          1. Commas are important, I guess.

            Then again, I did go to prototype out in Idaho. Still got the hip waders and Velcro gloves, too.

    It is disgusting that the legion would have this POS address those who honoraby served their nation.

    THUMBS DOWN for the legion allowing this anti-Military, anti-Christian, anti-American, liar and foreign policy clown in their midst.

    1. MCPO NYC USN Ret.

      Thunbs up for getting him on record. No doubt the private coffee with leadership was heated!

      But what do I know!

    He found time to go to the convention? Must have only played 9 holes today.

    1. MCPO NYC USN Ret.

      Great news outlet. They print what our MSM is afraid to!

    2. Seadog

      I just noticed how bad I “fat-fingered” that. My apologies.

  7. xyz

    what the hell guys? he’s your commander-in-chief. grow a pair and have more respect. if you think you can do better, run for office.

    1. AW1Ed

      He’ll get respect as CIC as soon as he starts acting like one. After six years, figure the odds.

      But thanks for playing.

    2. nbcguy54

      We have to respect the position, not the person holding it.

    3. I’ll remember that after all the fucking hippies and other assorted retards on the left wore (and still) wear Bush T-shirts with the caption, “Not My President”.

  8. Poetrooper

    My wife just told me that Ollie North got three standing ovations from the Legionnaires while Obie got none.

    1. Joe

      Now that’s messed up.

      1. RunPatRun

        It *is* messed up, North should have received at least five standing ovations.

  9. Seadog

    On a side note… Does anybody know how to force my iphone 5 to remember my attributes? It does it everywhere else but here.

  10. Messkit

    Anybody else notice, that the TOTUS seemed to not be scrolling correctly again? 0bama was stumbling over words and phrases, and “umm”ing like he was really really talking, instead of reading.

    1. UpNorth

      Fox had Oliver North on at 7 tonight, he said that Obama’s speech sounded like it was cobbled together from 3 or 4 speech writers. Very disjointed, and hard to follow. Maybe this was just another instance of Barrycade going through the motions? After all, the audience was just veterans./sarc

    2. Climb to Glory

      He was probably pretty nervous. I’m sure it was a bit of a chilly reception for him. That and I’m sure his speech thrown together at the last minute. Lets face it, he doesn’t really give a shit about vets.

  11. Roger in Republic

    I heard most of the speech. He was not interrupted by applause once. This lame ass as much as blamed our troops for instigating extremism by being in the combat zone. As if occupying troops are the cause of the conflict.

    1. We are all on the potential terrorist in hiding list you know…
      I only wonder how many of those WWII Veterans there are also on the list…
      God Bless all of them.
