Barack Obama's Memorial Day speech didn't contain any soaring rhetoric but was rather humdrum - whether due to his admitted lack of knowledge of the military even as he seeks to be commander-in-chief with a bushel of promises - or because he isn't comfortable with the military.
He also opened his speech by speaking about the fallen in front of him. Apparently he has Memorial Day and Veterans Day mixed together - Memorial Day is for remembering the fallen. But it is a time of change, isn't it?
UPDATE:
"The Obama Gaffe Machine Rolls On"
"The young gaffer sees dead people"
Listen to Obama admit he doesn't know much about the military and its sacrifices - and how he sees the fallen - alive in front of him:
I'm getting almost as sick of his voice as I am of Chris Matthews'. He is starting to sound like a Black preacher when he gives his speeches.
