Here’s a video of the pretender in chief handshaking the Marine- he did salute him first- then couldn’t resist handshaking. Maybe next time he meets the JCS - a group hug?

He stoped to shake hands with the marine standing guard at the door of Marine One. O is so over his head.

Even the toon didn't do that. He just wanted chicks, pizza, and chicom cash.

One more.

I noticed that the hopey changey did actually salute the Marine, then stopped to shake his hand... Poor Marine sure did have a wtf look! Don't blame him a bit!

Another observation... check out how hopey changey lopes when he walks! LOL! That up and down movement of his head is ridiculous! I can't tell you how many recruits have been slapped on the back of the head by the Drill Instructor to "Level Out" when walking... LOL!

“I saw where he stopped and shook hands with the marine on station before boarding Marine One instead of returning the marine’s salute. The marine had this “WTF?” look on his face. No smiles, just “WTF?””


Not true, he saluted him well then turned back to him and shook his hand.

I’m glad he’s enjoying his “spiffy” ride. Meanwhile thousands of people are still without power from the ice storm and without heat. Couldn’t we have just bought the boy president a new spiffy set of LEGOS instead of giving him the WH and AF1?

He should grow up and act like a president rather than like some 10 year old spoiled brat.

“taken ahead to locations where president might be touring disaster areas”

Mmmmm...Barry might make it to Kentucky by the spring thaw...

Uh, Barry would like a little bling with his ride. How about a little coke to snort in the back of his limo too?

” I told the commandant of marines, “I know it’s customary for the president to receive these salutes, but I was once an officer and realize that you’re not supposed to salute when you’re in civilian clothes. I think there ought to be a regulation that the president could return a salute inasmuch as he is commander in chief and civilian clothes are his uniform.”


With more than four years as an officer in the army reserves followed by 4 years as an officer in the active duty army, Reagan definitely knew something about saluting.

I stand corrected

Though the clip on the news last night did not show the salute but picked up a split second before the handshake.

I've been reading the comments on youtube and the loopy libs think it's wonderful and so refreshing to have a president who is not “stuck up” and not into all that war and aggression stuff (like saluting)

I haven't yet heard anyone with military experience say how cool it is to have a Commanderr in Chief who wants to be your buddy. Maybe at the State of Union address he'll stop and give the JCS a group hug

Oh, thank you for that information, Silverleaf. It makes a lot of sense.
