re: West Point Iced the Prez

there was a time in this country when people, especially at a place like West Point, would give proper respect for the office.

two way street. you think they should applaud when he knew of the VA issue and says he's giving 5 billion dollars to terrorists in his speech? To those graduating from WP?

Really? Applaud that? Is that so Obama can then stand up and say "Look, even the military agrees with me!"

“The president just promised $5 billion for terrorists around the world?! At West Point?!” Williams said angrily. “Where he could have used the day to say, ‘I’m sorry for the pain that I’ve caused you, the families, and I’m gonna fix it today!’”



quote:
“I’m angry because, you know, we made a promise. When I stood with my hand up proudly, I said, ‘I do solemnly swear and affirm to support and defend the Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic and I will bear true faith.’ I went through my oath,” Williams said.

“I told the world I’m willing to put my life on the line and die for you,” he continued. “Now, our guys went over. They left body parts. Some of them never made it back. Some of them are here now and their souls are still there. And we have the audacity to turn our back on them right this second?”
