Obama Does Not Get It
Painfully Uncomfortable indeed.
It’s a small gesture, but gestures matter at the hallowed grave site of so many murdered innocent Americans. Barack Obama flings a memorial rose at Ground Zero like he’s a kid tossing pennies into a fountain at the shopping mall — or a spectator tossing flowers at a bullfight. . . . By contrast, John McCain and his wife kneel and gently, somberly, place their roses down at the foot of the 9/11 tribute.
