When the day comes where she served her country in battle I'll have respect for her, otherwise- she can go blow and toot her vacant horn, who cares.
I think women in the military deserve a lot more credit.
Its great that she honored these women for their service.
Your slide shows are nice!
Interesting article...and comments!
Just a year or so ago, BO and M had no use nor respect for America or US...I would think that they found God, but in this case just money, votes,and more baloney.
