Obama Blows Off Medal of Honor Recipients
I didn’t figure he would choose to hang out with the military when he could rub elbows with his liberal supporters and get lots of good press for his efforts.
According to TSO who was at the “Salute to Heroes Inaugural Ball”, this newly sworn-in President for the first time in 56 years blew off the ball (that’s 14 Inaugurations).
Some background on the ball;
The American Legion sponsors the ball, which recognizes recipients of Medal of Honor, the nation’s highest military award. It started in 1953 for President Dwight D. Eisenhower’s first inauguration.
Event co-sponsors include 13 other veterans service organizations, among them the Military Order of the Purple Heart and the Paralyzed Veterans of America.

He’s the Commander-In-Chief of the U.S. Armed Forces and he blows off the opportunity to honor some of our most courageous veterans.
He has no idea what freedom truly means nor the sacrifice it takes to maintain it.
