"In an extremely loud and boisterous voice..."
Few will argue that not many things in life are sadder or more difficult to bear than parents burying their own child.
Perhaps one of the few things that could increase the crushing pain to the grieving parents, would be if the Vice President of the United States went out of his way to make an unbelievably asinine and callous statement during a memorial ceremony for that very same dead child.
It was reported this past Friday by Fox News that while appearing on the Glenn Beck's television show, Charles Woods, father of slain former US Navy SEAL and State Department official Tyrone Woods, related what happened at the Andrews Air Force Base memorial service to those slain in the terrorist attack on the US Consulate in Benghazi, Libya this past September 11th.
As the heartbroken father stated on the Glenn Beck show; (video, lower left)
"Let me say something else, and I'll ask you this question: Are these the words of someone who's really sorry?
The vice president was also there. He came by and he introduced himself. This is before the president came by.
He came over to our little pod of people and he says, 'I am Joe Biden.'
And then he said, I'm quote/unquote, I received one of these damn phone calls, when he had lost a family member.
And then about a half‑hour later, he actually came over and approached me, and these are the exact words he said.
I do not speak like this.
Quote, says, in an extremely loud and boisterous voice he said, 'Did your son always have balls the size of cue balls?'
I will ask you the question: Is that the voice of someone who is truly sorry?"
Criticism For Barack "Dead Fish" Obama...
Fox News also cited "in a separate interview with radio host Lars Larson, Woods said shaking Obama's hand was 'like shaking hands with a dead fish.'"
Woods also added;
"He kind of just mumbled, you know, 'I'm sorry.'
His face was looking at me, but his eyes were looking over my shoulder like he could not look me in the eye.
And it was not a sincere, 'I'm really sorry, you know, that you're son died,' but it was totally insincere."
