I really don't see how this is a story
Yeah it took some time but the POTUS paid it out of his personal account...he didn't need to do that. Good for him.
My nephew told me his SGLI payment to his wife would have been $200,000.
So the son made his Mom the beneficiary and not the Dad...sounds like Dad trying to cash in on being a crappy husband and father.
The timing may be a coincidence. It could have taken a long time, and its possible it was all wrapped up on Wednesday - the very day the WP story broke. If so, it's an unfortunate set of events for our president.
I also found this from the article to be unfortunate:
Euvince Brooks’s son, Sgt. Roshain E. Brooks, 30, was killed Aug. 13 in Iraq. He has not heard from the White House. The president’s claim this week that he had called every military family to lose a son or daughter only upset the Brooks family more.
Brooks said that after watching the news on Tuesday night he wanted to set up a Twitter account to try to get the president’s attention.
“I said to my daughter, ‘Can you teach me to tweet, so I can tweet at the president and tell him he’s a liar?’” he said. “You know when you hear people lying, and you want to fight? That’s the way I feel last night. He’s a damn liar.”
