"Seventy six trombones in the big parade...."
I was informed yesterday, by a wingnut friend on FaceBook, that President Obama had placed a ban on "Welcome Home" parades for the troops returning from Iraq. It smelled like more Right-Wing bullshit lies, so a subsequent internet search revealed;
http://news.yahoo.com/st-louis-welco...184700911.html
There have been dozens of such parades including the one in St. Louis that the president attended, and spoke at.

There are more planned for later in the year, across the nation including----Chicago, Illinois.
Turns out it was more of what I thought it was.
Glad I didn't step in it.

You were expecting the truth from a rightie?

That'll garner you some howls of righteous indignation Rob. If only those on the right would call out their own on the incessant lying and quoting out of context they might have a point. Except for McCain, the only respectable Republican left in congress, there is little familiarity with truth amongst the radical wing of the right. (Tea Partyists and Birchers)
What irks me is the complicity of the lame stream media.

Obama isn't going to round up the parade people into citizen detention camps until after the election.

Ah the Birchers, the Society for the Preservation of Wooden Toilet Seats.
Let them howl, but even the howls will be lies.
