Obama
Administration Tells Patriot Guard: "Get Lost"
There was a memorial service two days ago in Beckley, West Virginia for
the 29 coal miners who died at the nearby Upper Big Branch mine April
5th. Twenty-eight hundred people attended the service. Most of
them were there to pay their respects and console the grieving. At
least
a couple of them were there to make symbolic, political appearances.
Many of the working class men who died were military veterans and some
of them rode motorcycles. A source has told this page that
"Families of the miners killed in the explosion had requested the
Patriot Guard Riders attend." The Patriot Guard Riders is an
informal club of veteran motorcyclists which exists to make sure that
all veterans are given respectful funerals.
They
were banned from this service by federal officials because those
officials believe the Patriot Guard is a security threat!
Cleared
With Governor
The appearance of the Patriot Guard at the service, at the request of at
least several families, was cleared by West Virginia Governor Joe
Manchin. Travis Mollohan, a senior aide to the Governor worked with the
Patriot Riders to arrange a staging location.
The day before the service, Joe Cumblidge, the West Virginia State
Captain of the Patriot Guards emailed the men who were scheduled to
participate: "Due to circumstances totally and completely
beyond the control of the Patriot Guard Riders and Governor Joe Manchin
of West Virginia, we are regrettably ordering a STAND DOWN for this
mission. Specific details will not be posted here but, we've been
told we are not welcome to participate because of certain high-level
dignitaries that are scheduled to be in attendance."
The "high-level dignitaries" were (drum
roll...................................................) Obama and Biden.
Who'd have guessed (sarcasm)! Obama
and his Homeland Security lackey, Napolitano, declare that returning
combat vets are potential terrorist threats and now disallows
a group of mostly vets, who the miners' families requested - the only
group in the country (volunteers, all) that will stand in honor of any
vet from any era, plus cops and firefighters, at any time and in any
place and in any weather - from attending the memorial service!
Barry's defenders are saying it's because the Secret Service couldn't
risk it; didn't know who might be in the group. But there were 2,800
people there, from around the state and even beyond, and the SS didn't
know who might be among that throng either. It
was a disgraceful, contemptuous slap in every veteran's face,
especially combat vets and, even more so, those who've shed blood and/or
died for our country.
Reminds
me of how the left-wing
liberals label Tea Party events as
racist and mob-like, which video
evidence proves they are not.
The
left-wing liberals own pro-immigration and pro-abortion and anti-gun
rallies are seething with hate and racism and incitement!
Each
one of those flag- bearing veterans would have stood silently at
attention throughout the memorial – no matter how long - many with
silent tears trickling down their face, and when it was over, many of
those same "terrorist threats" would have made a point to wait
again for as long as it took to offer condolences and hugs to the widows
and fatherless children, faces still wet with tears.
This……..Obama
makes me sick!
YOU MUST VOTE IN NOVEMBER
