This D-Day Vet Just Summarized PERFECTLY How Conservatives Feel About Obama’s Presidency.

According to this, D-Day Vet and documentary filmmaker George Ciampa, age 89, was at the recent 70th celebration in Normandy, and in advance of his visit there, he received a phone call from the White House, asking if he'd be interested in attending a private meeting with President Obama that was being arranged for attending vets.

As the sourcelink describes, George contemplated the idea, and then decided that he had so many issues with Obama's policies that he just couldn't do it.  

And he's not alone.  John Fund, the author of the sourcelink column says that another vet attending a D-Day event explained George's decision like this:

 “It’s not that we don’t want to respect the commander-in-chief, it’s just that he makes it so hard to do so.”

That sums up my feelings about the office of the presidency under this administration perfectly, and I'd be willing to wager many other conservatives would agree.

It'd be a lot easier to have respect for this administration if it demonstrated that it was worthy of it.  But when Obama describes his decision making about the Bergdahl prisoner trade the way he does in the below video, with arrogant statements about "his government," or when he uses procedural tricks and budget reconciliation just to get Obamacare passed (while the majority of Americans opposed it and it had no Republican support), or when he gets all mad at scandals and then never does JACKSQUAT about them, then yeah, he makes it really difficult to respect him.

I don't blame George Ciampa a bit for declining Obama's invitation.
