Fort Hood Hero Says President Obama 'Betrayed' Her, Other Victims

NED BERKOWITZ and BRIAN ROSS

Feb. 12, 2013

 

Three years after the White House arranged a hero's welcome at the State of the Union address for the Fort Hood police sergeant and her partner who stopped the deadly shooting there, Kimberly Munley says President Obama broke the promise he made to her that the victims would be well taken care of.

 

"Betrayed is a good word," former Sgt. Munley told ABC News in a tearful interview to be broadcast tonight on "World News with Diane Sawyer" and "Nightline."

 

"Not to the least little bit have the victims been taken care of," she said. "In fact they've been neglected."

Medal of Honor winner turns down invite to State of the Union

By Emily Goodin - 02/12/13 12:52 PM ET

 

Former Army staff sergeant Clint Romesha, who was awarded the Medal of Honor at the White House on Monday, has declined the first lady's invitation to sit in her box on Tuesday night during the State of the Union address.

 

Clint Romesha told CNN he will watch the speech with friends from his former unit and his wife.

 

"I've done some soul searching," he said. "As much as a great honor it would be to be a guest of the first lady, it's also kind of hard to break away from the friends and the family and all the great guys here."

Democrats Are Bringing Illegal Immigrants to State of the Union

John Hinderaker

2/12/13

 

Not just Democrats, but Michelle Obama, along with a number of others, as the Daily Caller reports. Not only that, the Democrats are bending the usual rules governing SOTU guests that are otherwise enforced by the House Sergeant at Arms. Normal SOTU guests–that would be you or me–have to provide Social Security numbers. The Democrats, including Michelle Obama, have apparently forced a waiver of that requirement so that they can host illegal immigrants. Special privileges for illegals–the arrogance of New Class Democrats knows no bounds.
