    Wink OMG Obammy what have you done now? Changing the Military funeral Protocols

    Got this in an Email and had to share
    They done even Ran Snopes on it so you dont have to Even got Phone didjits an everythang fer ya.




    PRESIDENT CHANGES MILITARY FUNERALS

    When I received this email, I could not believe it... So, I checked with Snopes... I learned that it is TRUE:

    http://www.snopes.com/politics/military/funeral.asp

    There has been a change in U.S. military burial protocol! This is a letter that my good friend's husband wrote today after his uncle's funeral yesterday. If Obama does not want his name associated with our military, he does not deserve to be "The President of the United States".

    Alice Frankovitch

    REMEMBER THIS on NOVEMBER 6, 2012

    Dear Sean, Today I was incensed at the conclusion of a traditional Serbian-Orthodox funeral for my beloved 85-year-old uncle, Daniel Martich, who proudly served in the US Army during the Korean conflict. During the committal service at a Pittsburgh cemetery the local military detachment performed their ritual, then folded and presented the American Flag to my aunt.

    As I'm sure you have witnessed during military
    funerals, a soldier bends to one knee and recites a
    scripted message to a surviving relative that begins 'On behalf of the President of the United States and a grateful nation, I wish to present you with this flag in appreciation for your husband's service ..' However, today the dialogue was 'On behalf of the
    Secretary of Defense and a grateful nation...' After
    the service, I approached the soldier who presented the flag to my aunt to inquire about the change in language. His response was: "The White House notified all military funeral service detachments to immediately remove 'the President' and insert 'the Secretary of Defense'. I couldn't believe what I heard! The soldier just smiled and said, "You can draw your own conclusion, Sir, but that was the order". He, too, was ashamed of what he was required to say. Obama has taken off the gloves.

    My only response to this endless cesspool of
    anti-American rhetoric dripping from his mouth is to borrow a phrase "with one minor change" uttered by another temporary Washington resident living in
    government housing (his wife!): "Today for the first
    time in my adult life, I am ashamed of the current
    U.S. President!" I did not serve in the military but
    my love of country parallels that of people like my
    late uncle who bled red, white and blue. As a second generation Serbian-American who's heritage produced many patriotic military men and women who fought for freedom both in the United States as well as in the former Yugoslavia (most recently in Kosovo against the slaughter of Serbs by Muslim
    extremists), I implore you to make the American people aware of this little-known or, at least
    publicly acknowledged fact. May God Bless you and your family during these difficult times. Your voice of reason is a welcome change from the insanity plastered across the country by the
    liberal media. Keep up the great work and thank you for your service to our country.

    Sincerely, John G. Martich Weirton, WV

    PLEASE PASS THIS ON TO FRIENDS AND REMEMBER 2012 IS TIME FOR A NEW
    PRESIDENT AND COMMANDER IN CHIEF

    Here’s Another:

    OBAMA STOPS SOLDIER FROM SPEAKING


    Something you'll want to be aware of: Obama stops soldier from speaking.....Sent by Retired Vice Admiral Bob Scarborough, of Arlington, Va. "I wanted to give you all some disturbing information on our wonderful
    president. I work with the Catch-A-Dream Foundation,
    which provides hunting and fishing trips to children
    with life-threatening illnesses. This past weekend we
    had our annual banquet/fundraiser event in Starkville.

    As a part of our program, we had scheduled Sgt. 1st Class Greg Stube to come; he's a highly decorated U.S. Army Green Beret and inspirational speaker who was severely injured while deployed overseas and didn't have much of a chance for survival.

    Greg is stationed at Ft. Bragg, NC and received permission from his commanding officer to come speak at our function.

    Everything was on go until Obama made policy that NO U.S. SERVICEMAN CAN SPEAK AT A FAITH-BASED PUBLIC EVENT ANYMORE. Needless to say, Greg had to cancel his speaking event with us. Didn't
    know if anyone else was aware of this new policy.

    You're just starting to see the Obamanation. This is just how the Nazis did it in the 1930s - slowly, one step at a time. This should be forwarded to everyone regardless of party affiliation!

    We have lost 50% of our freedom of speech in the last
    2 years. The news media is not allowed to print anything negative about this evil Obama.

    ARE YOU STILL GOING TO RE-ELECT HIM?

    Remember you have been warned take it serious...

    Robert D. Sinacola COL (Ret), AVN, USAR

    Thanks To ALL Who Served And Are Serving.. Please Pray For Our Troops And Leaders.

    God Bless America Land That I love.

    Re: OMG Obammy what have you done now?

    No need to "Snoope"it vet!
    #1 - Snoopes is loosing it's nonpartisan reputation.
    #2 - I have gotten notifications of those type stories in all my vets on-line magazines.

    Again, I say anyone who will see the movie 2016 - Obama's America, or read his autobiography, Dreams FROM My Father will "get it"!
    A perfect fit of the application of his father's dreams.
    Be worried! be very, very worried!

    I honestly hope you are knew this was a gag. From misspelling Snopes to the Obama 2016 recommendation this is a losing post all the way around.

    Good one, Oleveton. I told my wife half of her FB friends would post that as reality.

    I knew you did, and I know you aren't. You are very tongue in cheek. Was talking the cruiser comment. It is very true on both sides of the aisle. I'll even be caught at times when it is something that goes along with my centrist biases, but I do tend to look up most things. My boss was going on about some 3.8% sales tax on housing sales. I said there is no way as that would kill almost the entire real estate industry. He insisted it was true. Took me 30 seconds to disprove it on snopes.
