Here’s something we never heard Obama say as he continued the longest war in America’s history in Afghanistan and ordered so many unconstitutional drone strikes over the past eight years that most Americans have no idea how many countries their country is even currently bombing at this point.
On Tuesday, President Obama gave a speech at MacDill Air Force Base, in Tampa, Florida specifically regarding “the foundation that we will leave for the next administration.”
During his speech Obama told the troops “that each of us has…the universal right to speak your minds and to protest against authority; to live in a society that’s open and free; that can criticize our president without retribution.”
Looks like Obama is busy “community organizing” again.
On the way to Florida, Obama’s spokesman Josh Earnest said told reporters, “This is a speech that President Obama was prepared to give before the election.” But at times, it didn’t sound like it.
That is because it is highly doubtful Obama would have given the same speech had Hillary won the election.
But also, maybe Obama should personally give these reminders to Sgt. Gary Stein, a Marine who was given an “other-than-honorable” discharge in 2012 specifically for criticizing President Obama on his Facebook wall.
This speech obviously has nothing to do with the right of our troops to refuse to follow unconstitutional orders or else thousands of troops would’ve stopped doing what Obama told them to years ago.
