RAINED OUT:

[nmbluesky]

President Obama's Memorial Day speech at Abraham Lincoln National Cemetery was canceled due to a severe storm. The pool reports: "Obama will instead visit with service families who have crowded onto buses. Obama personally made the decision to warn guests to get off the open field, Burton said."

2. Cue the RW smear machine in 5...4...3...2...1....

"God Himself showed his displeasure at Obummer not being at the Tomb of the Unknowns by bringing a violent thunderstorm..."

3. I can attest to it

Lightning, thunder, rain here in Chicagoland. We are grilling our corn in the ... um, oven. Our lovely plans for an al fresco cookout this afternoon are kaput. But never mind, no biggie. We'll still be thinking of all the veterans past and present, and especially those who made the ultimate sacrifice. Sacrificing the barbecue grill is nothing.
