The dude is scoring some points and he's shamed the White House who didn't do it for the fallen military members killed on our own soil. Either Obama is really, really anti military or he has some really stupid advisors, 100's of thousands of letters and calls have been made to the White House expressing their rage at Obama's indifference to the killings of mere military members.

NEWARK, N.J. (AP) - Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump ordered that the flags on all his U.S. properties lowered to honor the five service members killed in last week's shooting in Chattanooga, Tennessee. His campaign released a statement Monday criticizing President Barack Obama for not ordering American flags lowered to honor the four marines and a sailor killed in the shooting.

First McCan't get's bitch slapped than Obama.

[sillydaddy]

That's because all of them were white.

And everyone knows Obama doesn't care for white people.

[Clownkicker]

You dimwits are such easily manipulated tools.

If flags were lowered every time someone was murdered, the flag would never fly at the top of a staff again.
That's just stupid.
The honor is reserved for the Nation's heroes or those who made a significant contribution to the country over their lifetime.
And as we all know, a regular soldier just doing his job is not a hero. Trump and johnforbes and RealTool and the rest of you morons just said so.

What a bunch of hypocrites. :lol:

Obama ordered the US flag be lowered to half mast after Sandy Hook.

So precedents have been set.

It seems to me that Obama should explain the White House position on

the flag at the time he makes his condolences as President deemed

important enough to be made public to the nation and not just to the families.

[Clownkicker]

Okay, you have a point there, that some sense of national mourning for some event warrants the lowering of the flag, and not lowering the flag for the five soldiers reflects a certain lack of national mourning over their deaths.

But I could counter with the hard fact that there is no broad sense of national mourning over the five soldiers, whether there should be or not. It's just not there, and even if you lowered the flags, it wouldn't suddenly make it materialize.

Trump can lower his private flags any time someone's dog gets run over too, but that won't make the nation mourn with him.

Pretending respect and heartbreak is not actual respect and heartbreak, silly, and it isn't actual national mourning. All I've felt from Justme and johnforbes is political partisanship over their deaths. Not any sense of mourning. And I haven't seen any broad sense of mourning in my home town either, unlike with Sandy Hook.

Trump lowering the flags is a campaign stunt, nothing more.
Trump is pretending. Obama is not.

You may not like it, but that's America today.
Have you been down to your city council asking that flags be lowered where you live?
No, I didn't think so.

[johnforbes]

During his own campaigns, Obama and his wife mocking "clinging" to guns/religion and said they hadn't been proud of America.

That dwarfs any controversy regarding Trump.

Of course, Clownshorter is a dwarf.

However, to be fair, Clownhicker towers over Ruth Buzzi.

[Clownkicker]

^^^^See? No sense of mourning at all. Just idiotic partisanship.

[RealJustme]

Trump lowering the flags is a campaign stunt, nothing more.
Trump is pretending. Obama is not.

Now Congress shames Obama. Watch for Obama "pretend" he cares and give in my lowering the flag.

CNN)—House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Kentucky announced Tuesday that flags at the Capitol would be lowered to half-staff in honor of the victims.

"Out of respect for their courageous service and sacrifice to our nation, flags at the U.S. Capitol are being lowered to half-staff," Boehner said in a statement.

But at the other end of Pennsylvania Avenue, the flags at the White House noticeably remained at full-staff. Aides to the president have repeatedly declined to discuss whether the flags at the White House would be similarly lowered. Boehner's office said Tuesday that they had alerted the White House of their plans.

[RealJustme]

After a week, Obama caves and orders the flag at the White House lowered as he and his family take off to New York. Kind of like leaving the White House for 2 weeks in Hawaii when it's decorated for Christmas. Funny how he wasted no time eulogizing or sympathetically commenting on Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown & Freddie Gray or also wasted no time having the White House lit up in rainbow colors to celebrate gay marriage, but it took pressure to have flags lowered to pay tribute to our military members who were killed. I still see he has not said a word to Kate Steinle's family either on her senseless shooting by an illegal alien. He hasn't called the murder of the military members senseless, but the shooting of the blacks were all called senseless. It's as if the killings by Muslims and Illegals of Americans makes sense to him.

[Intrepid]

Should anyone really be surprised? Obozo said it himself, "I intend to stand with the Muslims."
We've still got another year and a half left of this incredible asshole.
My feeling is that the worst is yet to come.

[Clownkicker]

And you hypocrites pretend to be outraged by political correctness run rampant.

But you're not condemning this terrible example of it.
You're cheering it.

[Intrepid]

Lowering the flag out if respect for service members killed in a jihad is now Political Correctness, according to the resident Marxist junkie pothead stoner and apologist for Hussein Obozo. Another clear example of AssClown Loser Lucky defending the indefensible.

Well, with that source authority, how can you argue?

AssClown Loser Lucky, you forgot to toss in a string of emoticons to bolster your blather.

[johnforbes]

When the Supreme Court made up some "right" to gay marriage, the White House lost not a second in celebrating that entirely fake and made up "right."

But let military folks be slaughtered while unarmed and the White House has to be shamed into doing the decent thing.

[RealJustme]

Obama is the laughing stock of America after Trump and Congress shamed him into lowering the flag A WEEK AFTER THE SHOOTINGS.

You can bet Michelle is fuming and couldn't stand the site of mere military members being honored thus she takes her family to New York for a few days to get away from it; just as they escape the Christmas decorations in the White House every year by taking off to Hawaii where they stay weeks in a rented villa void of even one sign of Christmas.

The Obama's don't like whites, the military or Christians, in that order because all they tend to be conservative and family oriented which rubs them raw. Being forced to honoring those five white Christian military members by lowering the flag sent them over the top.

[Clownkicker]

So how long are we going to have to wait for Trump to call for lowering flags to half staff over the Louisiana killings?

Let's all hold our breaths together....

[RealJustme]

So how long are we going to have to wait for Trump to call for lowering flags to half staff over the Louisiana killings?

The victims were military members in uniform?

[Clownkicker]

So what you're saying is that anytime a soldier dies in the line of duty, flags should be lowered?

What about W's great disrespect for all those who died in Iraq? They deserve the honor less than these five?

[RealJustme]

So what you're saying is that anytime a soldier dies in the line of duty, flags should be lowered?

Clown you are confused aren't you. Ask Obama,he's the one that lowered the flag for the five military members, ask him for an explanation as to why he did it. :lol:

[Clownkicker]

I KNOW why he did it, dimait.

He knuckled under to dishonest hypocritical weasels like Trump and you.
You're the clowns insisting it's the right thing to do. You're the dishonest scum insisting that the sacrifices of those who did 12-14 month tours in 120 degree weather fighting jihadis and suffering PTSD and losing friends, losing marriages and not watching their children grow up, and getting blown to pieces are not worthy of the same honors given to some guys who go home at night and sip Slurpies in a strip mall waiting for high school kids to come in and talk to them.

That's how warped your value systems are.

[RealJustme]

KNOW why he did it, dimait.

He knuckled

Yep, Obama was forced to honor those soldiers by Donald Trump, Donald is one powerful dude!

[Clownkicker]

Good to see you think W. Bush is a dick for not similarly honoring those he killed doing their duty.

But it's difficult to imagine your dream world in which our flags never make it to the top of the mast because every soldier killed apparently warrants this national honor.

[Intrepid]

We had a former Recondo Marine working in our office. Every time a service member from our area was killed he went out front and on his own lowered the flag to half staff.
Everyone approved of course, but God help anyone who complained.

[Clownkicker]

That's exactly the type of response that is appropriate.

It keeps the sacrifices of our service members in people's awareness at a local level, but it doesn't minimize what should be a rare national honor.

If the Nation's flags are always flying at half staff, the honor loses all meaning and the flag will become a laughing stock to other countries.

[johnforbes]

Clownhicker has always posted at half staff.

He needs staff members to write his material given his own low IQ.

Still, nobody will work for Clowndoper and thus he is always half-staffed.

Not to mention half-witted.

Are you admitting that Muslim attacks on our military bases will become the new norm?

"He needs staff members to write his material given his own low IQ."-johnforbes

^^^^This is the moron who's always telling us he has a staff to write his posts for him, and in fact has so many of them he can't supervise them sufficiently.
Then he says someone who does that has a low I.Q..

Well, johnny, I believe you.
You're so stupid you didn't even see your post is actually you calling yourself stupid. :lol:

[johnforbes]

Clownhicker is indeed a pole, but let's not dwell on ethnicity because his real problems are as adumbrated below:

[Clownkicker]

Like a chicken pecking the plate for a food pellet, johnforbes compulsively copy-and-pastes a repetition of his post saying he has a low I.Q.. :lol:

He's too stupid to understand his copy-and-paste in itself reinforces the fact of his low I.Q.

[johnforbes]

Clownhicker is justifiably proud of his IQ score.

He was the first member of his tribe to break into double digits.
