        Yes, but there are grossly inappropriate things one can say. And our poor excuse for a president has said many of them.

        Too bad our current President does not share this same respect for Gold Star families. Sad.

        Of course he does, but the hateful media is playing it differently in the reality show we now live in.

        At this point with this family and this president a simple 'I'm sorry' might suffice. But, the man doesn't have those words in him.

        You continue to rub salt in the wounds of those you are “supposedly” so concerned about....by trying to make political “hay”. Shame on you!!

        In this particular case he could say "I'm sorry to have hurt you - it was the last thing I intended." That he can't is really messed up.

        I think this is probably right. But when you make a misstep on message. Own it. Apologize for it and move on. Attacking people..? C'mon
