Obama says Vietnam veterans too often 'denigrated'
WASHINGTON (AP) - President Barack Obama paid tribute Monday to the men and women who have died defending America, pointing to Vietnam veterans as an under-appreciated and sometimes maligned group of war heroes who remained true to their nation despite an unwelcome homecoming.
Ya'll feel better now?  Just vote for me campaign rhetoric' A poll released Monday by Gallup found that 58 percent of veterans support Romney and 34 percent back Obama. The results were based on a sample of 3,327 veterans who are registered voters and had a margin of error of 2 percentage points. http://apnews.myway.com//article/201...D9V1TMT82.html

Re: Obama says Vietnam veterans too often 'denigrated'
He mouthed all that phony apologetic garbage knowing it was him and his kind who treated the VN vets like garbage.
I wonder if he thinks anybody who was alive then, has forgotten that fact?

Right message. Wrong messenger.

Re: Obama says Vietnam veterans too often 'denigrated'
He's right, for once. The VN Vets are too often denigrated, by the likes of him. He speaks the truth, in a twisted way.
He promised hope and change. He brought the change, and causes us to hope he goes away. |
