Barack Obama has no time to waste. During this week’s 9/11 memorial at the Pentagon, Obama rushed the ceremony — and moment of silence — in order to get back to his other, apparently more important business.
A source close to the situation told The DC that Obama arrived early to the memorial service — which took place at the Pentagon — and wanted to get things started early.
A Department of Defense official confirmed that the moment of silence was moved up a few minutes and that Obama was the one who made the decision, saying the president “moved early.”
The moment of silence was originally slotted to take place at 9:37 AM — the time at which the Pentagon was attacked on September 11 — but ended up taking place a few minutes early.
After the moment of silence, President Obama gave a speech about the need to honor the 3,000 victims of September 11.
See that speech in the video below.
