They caved. Apparently the public reaction to the way they were treating the vets proved to be too much.

WASHINGTON — The monuments and memorials in Washington and Philadelphia will once again be open to visitors, provided they’re there for “First Amendment activity,” White House Press Secretary Jay Carney told reporters Wednesday...

Carol Johnson, a spokesperson for the National Park Service, said the accommodation for Honor Flight vets was not a change in policy.

“The Honor Flights are being granted access to the WWII memorial to conduct First Amendment activities in accordance with National Park Service regulations applicable to the National Mall and Memorial Parks,” she said in a statement. “This is consistent with the DOI Closure Determination and Notice issued on October 1, 2013.”

Oh, puhlease.

. So those barricades were merely decorative? Who do these people think they are fooling?

In addition, awfully kind of Obama and Co. to permit the vets visiting privileges given they have already occupied the site.

Rumors are circulating that Obama ordered the reopening of the WWII Memorial because he was terrified these vets would band together, attack the WH, and give him a well deserved spanking. After he wet himself, Obama crawled out from under his desk, and then ordered the reopening.
