michelle obama to talk to military families

Published Oct. 7, 2008

The wife of the Democratic presidential candidate hosts a forum in Jacksonville Tuesday to talk about the challenges that military families face when a member is deployed.

-----

And how would SHE know anything about that, other than what she's been told or has observed which is NOTHING like walking a mile in their shoes.

Rev:

I love you, but I have to say you need deliverance in your mindset. For you to say she should ignore them just because she do not know 1st hand, is plain ignorant. Did you say that about Bush? I bet you voted for him. There's your sheesh... LOL!

i reach out to military families and all i can offer is appreciation and gratitude. support is doing something. what you are saying is ridiculous.

so what harm is it in her reaching out to them. i doubt she's telling them she knows exactly what they feel. i suppose she's wanting to let them know that their sacrifices are appreciated and should her husband be elected they will be looked after. what's wrong with that?

heldensoul - "so what should she do, ignore them?"

Until she's in a position where she can do something for them, yes.

Or at least appoint a committee made up of them to counsel and educate her, BEFORE SHE SAYS A THING.

God bless.

Rev. RB

Mrs Fabulous - "I bet McCain and Bush along with their secret societies know exactly where he is."

Now you're just spouting BS about which you know nothing.

Do you have any idea how hard it is to keep a secret??? Do you have any idea how many employees the government has, just in Washington DC, let alone in the military and ambassadorial services overseas.

You're counting on a lot of people to keep their mouth shut.

God bless.

Rev. RB

Fab - "If the families are suffering while the head is away, then get 'em out of there."

Spoke like a true civilian.

THEY SIGNED A CONTRACT to protect and serve, and to follow the orders of their Commander-in-Chief.

sheesh

If we don't STOP terrorism in the middle east, or at least contain it, Main Street USA will never be safe again. 9/11 proved that.

God bless.

Rev. RB

heldensoul -

You can "feel" for them and even understand them, UP TO A POINT, but if you haven't been in their shoes, you can never get the FULL picture.

God bless.

Rev. RB

so what should she do, ignore them?

I have a family memeber that was deployed.I am thinking i can explain it MUCH better than someone who hasn't been in my familes shoes. Of course i am also not a husband or wife or a individual running for public office either.

okay WRAL is posting that she is there to share her points on the hardships that troops endure when a family member is deployed......so again i ask..when was she or a member of her family deployed in the military and endure such harships???? some in this blog stated she was there to listen but WRAL's story tends to contradict that.

Im asking a question, hince the question marks after my question.
