SPREADING LIES

Obama and claimed that Obama did this because he hates the military.

Two West Virginia senators and a documentary filmmaker are expressing their dismay after House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) blocked a movement to allow Frank Buckles' body to lay repose in the Capitol Rotunda.

The Buckles' family spokesperson, David DeJonge, told The State Journal of Charleston, W.V. that he wasn't contacted for any of the decisions surrounding Buckles' last honors.

He said he was extremely disappointed that Boehner had blocked the move to honor Buckles.

"This is an error made by the leadership of our country that not only affects the U.S. but the perception of the U.S. by the entire world," DeJonge told the newspaper.
