IS OBAMA PURPOSELY HURTING VETERANS AND THEIR FAMILIES?
by Sharon Rondeau
(Oct. 4, 2013) — On Friday morning, Rep. Steve Stockman tweeted that the Obama regime ordered the closing of U.S. military cemeteries in Europe attributable to the partial government shutdown.
Stockman said that in 17 previous partial shutdowns, overseas military cemeteries have never been ordered closed.
Stockman’s assertions are supported by media reports.
CBS reported that the D-Day memorial in Normandy, France is among the sites that have been closed. Also affected are American cemeteries in Tunisia, Belgium, Mexico, and the Philippines. Those deemed missing in action in World War II are also honored at the cemeteries.
On Tuesday and Wednesday of this week, World War II veterans flown in on special Honor Flights were initially told they could not tour the World War II Memorial on the National Mall, but on both days, the veterans and their escorts removed the barricades and were able to complete their visit. An employee at the National Parks Service told one of the groups that veterans would be subject to arrest if they ventured past the barricades on Wednesday, but the veterans were ultimately allowed through.
The U.S. House and Senate failed to come to an agreement on appropriations by Monday at midnight, at which time the current appropriations bill lapsed and funding for “non-essential” government functions no longer existed.
The Obama regime has labeled veterans returning from combat and other operations in the Middle East as “potential domestic terrorists,” along with Tea Party members, constitutionalists, home-schoolers, and Christians.
Obama has refused to negotiate over the terms of a new Continuing Resolution which would reopen parts of or all departments which are currently closed. The House has drafted at least four proposals to fund individual entities, including national parks and monuments, while the impasse continues, but the Senate, led by Harry Reid, has rejected them.
In a later tweet, Stockman noted that Obama’s golf course has remained open while other military installations have been closed:
Stockman also reported that $85 million in funding is available to the American Battle Monuments Commission, which operates the cemeteries. The Washington Times reported that a park ranger commented, ” “We’ve been told to make life as difficult for people as we can. It’s disgusting.”
I pray for all of our dedicated men/women to have an impact on the USA who continue to avoid the truth!

May Almighty God protect each and every one.
Like Rush Limbaug said, these people hate history. They want to thing they are history or are making it when they are nothign but criminals stealing from the taxpayers. When will Mr. Bari Shabazz’s papers be released from Perkins Coie in Seattle after taxpayer’s have been hijacked for $4 million to keep them hidden away? WHAT ARE THEY HIDING? Too bad they have illegally blocked all Criminal Presentments to prosecute them with illegal “no standing” rulings against Mr. Shabazz. At least Hillary could be seen as doing something for the party, having given orders to the Judicial and threats that no Presentment would be allowed to reach Discovery on anyone in this criminal group. Black Muslim Eric Holder, whatever his name really is “Al Shabob” has also been protected through Fast And Furious, Benghazi, the Philadelphia Voting Intimidation Scandals, Border Agent Murders, etc. Just another day on the job? Looks like Corporate Trust Law pays pretty well, even murder could disappear. Or, if you are creative, you could slip Harry Reid a check for $650,000 to make those terrible Government Taxes or other corporate problems just dissapear in the clouds.
