Does this seem Presidential to you, maybe spiking the football too hard?
That is all this President does. Obama is and has been on a 24/7 campaign/party.

Her brother was Charles Burlingame. The pilot of American Airlines Flight #77 which went into the Pentagon. He was a graduate of the U.S. Naval Academy and was an honor graduate of the "Top Gun" school. He is buried at Arlington National Cemetary.

This "stupid lady" happens to be the sister of someone my family knew. She is also an American citizen whose freedom of speech is guaranteed by the First Amendment to the United States Constitution. Also known as the Bill of Rights. Which Chic Burlingame defended for eight years in the United States Navy.

Pretty sure Chic would be proud of her.

More like Obama should be ashamed for politicizing the whole deal, but Obamabots can't see the forest for the trees.

Did I hear right, she said 50 families were there?
That seems small amount of folks, considering the amount of casualties on 9/11....

That goes a little to far.. She probably thought this was going to be a private moment. Not everyone wants to be videotaped even when meeting the president..

And you prove that you received a progressive education, meaning that it was not very good at all, but the propaganda worked well.

My understanding is that the White House issued a limited number of invitations.
