The Lights Are On But Nobody's Home

This is what our completely vacuous president had to say to wounded troops during his photo op visit to the Brooke Army Medical Center I Texas.

“As you can possibly see, I have an injury myself -- not here at the hospital, but in combat with a Cedar. I eventually won. The Cedar gave me a little scratch. As a matter of fact, the Colonel asked if I needed first aid when she first saw me. I was able to avoid any major surgical operations here, but thanks for your compassion, Colonel.”

Remember he was talking to soldiers who have lost limbs or worse.
