White House schoolyard policies backfiring.
The White House is exercising it’s new “Civility” and “Working togetherness” I guess…
HT to Weasel Zippers for the story
White House initially denies rep.’s request to attend Medal of Honor event
The White House initially denied a request by Rep. Duncan Hunter (R-Calif.) to attend a Medal of Honor ceremony for a fellow Marine Corps and Afghanistan war veteran, a congressional source said.Hunter first learned last week about plans for President Obama to award former Marine Cpl. Dakota Meyer the Medal of Honor during a Thursday ceremony at the White House. Hunter formally requested to attend the ceremony earlier this week, but the White House said no, the congressional source said.
The source said the lone reason for the denial given during a brief phone call from a White House official was because “the room was already full.”
An hour after The Hill asked the White House about the apparent snub, however, Hunter’s office said an invitation was extended shortly after noon.
A White House spokesman has yet to respond to that inquiry.
This doesn’t seem to be getting the attention it deserves in my opinion. First off WELL DONE MARINE Meyer :clap:
But the underlying issue that should be a glaring neon sign pointing to the type of people that are running our nation is this:
We have a vindictive, spoiled rotten, insecure child running our nation. Everyone he surrounds himself with is exactly the same way. They feel THEY are the ones who know best in all instances, if you disagree with them well you will be punished… This story reveals a lot of you look.
A REPUBLICAN requests to attend a combat award ceremony. This can’t happen because the spotlight needs to be on Obama and the DEMOCRAT placing the medal on a hero. Ooops. Wait, the Republican is a MARINE COMBAT VETERAN… CRAP, okay let him come…
Solyndra, Boeing, Fast and Furious, The New Black Panthers, Gibson, the dream act reach around, etc. The list goes on and on. ANY previous POTUS that had this many scandals and ethics violations would be ran out on a rail. But for some reason Obama is still polling above 30%… WHY? Well imagine my surprise when I found out the population breakdown by race… Shocked I tell you…
This story tells you exactly what kind of people are in charge of the greatest nation the world has ever seen. They talk about “Country ahead of Politics” when it suits them. This instance was minor in the eyes of many, but those who are paying attention see a very disturbing pattern of thuggary, pettiness, deceit, lies and intentional vindictive acts to hurt the opposition to their ideological views. Typical if you ask me. The first thing democrats do is try to silence those who oppose them. This one backfired, but how many have gone unchecked because our media is in the POTUS tank?
