Who remembers this?
Bet this never hits the TV news!

Gold Star Mothers is an organization made up of women whose sons were killed in military combat during service in the United States Armed Forces. Recently a delegation of New York State Gold Star Mothers made a trip to Washington, DC to discuss various concerns with their elected representatives. According to NewsMax.com there was only one politician in DC who refused to meet with these ladies. Can you guess which politician that might be?

Was it New York Senator Charles Schumer? Nope, he met with them. Try again. Do you know anyone serving in the Senate who has never showed anything but contempt for our military? Do you happen to know the name of any politician in Washington whose husband once wrote of his loathing of the military?

Now you're getting warm! None other than the Queen herself - the Hildebeast, Hillary Clinton. She refused repeated requests to meet with the Gold Star Mothers.

Now - please don't tell me you're surprised. This woman wants to be president of the United States - and there is a huge percentage of the voters who are anxious to help her achieve that.
=============================================================

Yes, I know it's a fraud. And for those who don't, here's Snopes on it...

Well, President Bush, you have your very own Gold Star Mom wanting to meet with you. She's willing to sit out there, waiting your convenience. She hasn't dropped by your office while you were out of town, no, she made sure you were in town. And she's not overly picky about the time of day that you meet with her. So, why are you refusing? Why are you having your attack mutts smear her, and her dead son's, good name? Why, Mr. President?

I'm sending this out to everyone I know. People deserve to see what a bunch of hypocrits the Republicans are.

2. I'm sorry mr. mod
I should have put the denouncement at the top, I guess... but I wanted the full impact first, then the denoument.

As I told the Mod, I should have started with the denouncement... but it wasn't dramatic that way.
