From The Gateway Pundit: On August 6, 2011, 30 US service members were killed
when a CH-47 Chinook helicopter they were being transported in crashed
in Wardak province, Afghanistan. It was the deadliest single loss for U.S. forces in the decade-long war in Afghanistan. 17 members of the elite Navy SEALs were killed in the crash.
Yesterday, Karen and Billy Vaughn, parents of Aaron Carson Vaughn, spoke at the Defending the Defenders forum sponsored by the Tea Party Patriots outside the RNC Convention in Tampa. Karen brought a copy of the form letter they were sent following their son’s death.
That’s not all.
Karen Vaughn reached out to the parents of the other SEALs killed in that crash.
Their letters were all the same.
Form letters – signed by an electric pen. http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2012/08/obama-honored-fallen-seals-by-sending-their-parents-a-form-letter-signed-by-electric-pen/
Every soldier and service person killed in Afghanistan and Iraq deserve to have a letter and hand signed by the President. Not just Obama, but Bush and Romney when he gets elected.
Further, each president ought to be required to sign a letter of condolence to soldiers killed so they understand and don't take lightly the duties and responsibility of sending people into war. It's an awesome responsibility and having a auto-pen tells me that Obama doesn't take the war all that seriously. If he cannot find the time to sign about 10 letters a day to the families that gave the ultimate sacrifice, then he doesn't deserve to be president. But I'd be willing to bet that he would find time to sign letters who donate money to his campaign- if the price is right.
