I was informed that the current Commander-in-Chief will not/did not attend the wreath laying ceremony at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, today. And was the first such CIC to do so (not do so) since it's inception. Is this true? Or just an attempt to generate some kind of hysteria?

It was stated on FOX news that Bill Clinton started the tradition, so it's not that long of a tradition. I think it was "tacky" for the "Messiah" to not do it, but I'll admit Biden did a good job of taking his place, and did not stick his foot in his mouth. I did see some folks it the background with their minds somewhere else while the national anthem was played which was very disrespectful. IMHO, the "Messiah" still hasn't shown this country any respect yet.

Reagan - Didn't show up one year, he was at a G8 summit in Va.
Bush 41 - Didn't show up one year, he was on Vacation at Kennbunkport.
Bush 43 - Didn't show up one year, he was on Vacation at Crawford. (A wartime President too, Disgraceful).

...funny how Fox didn't mention that. :roll:

It kills me laughing when people watch fox news and then complain seriously about liberal/left wing media bias.

?? I've heard from very reliable sources, CNN, MSNBC, NY times, Washington Post, Time magazine, there is no such thing as media bias, so it must be true......

But that's getting off the subject of this post about the "Messiah" and the Arlington Cemetary/Memorial Day non-event.
