Oh, barf! Has there ever been a narcissistic politician like Obama who didn't surround himself with such obsequious sycophants?
At today’s Arlington National Cemetery Memorial Day observance, Defense Secretary Ashton Carter said “troops of such caliber demand great leaders, and there’s no doubt they have one in our commander in chief.”
“I see that every day,” continued Carter, who assumed his post in February. “He knows well the challenges we must face, the obligations we must meet, and the opportunities we must seize in order to keep our nation safe and to make a better world for our children. And I see that he cares deeply about the safety, welfare, and dignity of our men and women in uniform and their families.”
“For all that, and so much more, I am tremendously proud to serve as his secretary of Defense,” he added.
