As far Obama is concerned that's what the military is for, right? Being his towel boys.
Benghazi? F 'em.

This is just his way of belittling those who are sworn to protect the America he despises. Filthy trash trying to demoralize the military.

that is disgraceful - he has plenty of WH staff, or the WH police for that matter - how demeaning for a Marine.

Hopefully in about 6 months those Marines will be able to say they held an umbrella for an impeached President.

Assuming this is not normal protocol for Presidents, this is most likely related to his hostile, controlling, and very passive-aggressive habit of keeping an entire nation waiting when he shows up late for press conferences.

Not to Mention the Marines Will probably need to have their Blue's Dry Cleaned.

If I were that Sergeant I would NOT be happy. (btw he doesn't look very happy to begin with)

I ponder the minutia of the logistics of this type of stuff. Those marines are probably standing there, contemplating how they are going to dry out the uniform, without shrinking it, can they get them dry before the dry cleaner closes, and how much does next day cleaning cost.

I hope those on WH detail get an extra uniform allowance, for cleaning and spare uniforms.

Look at http://www.foxnews.com/ right this second.

I wish this picture would go viral.

I wish it would be akin to the pic of Dukakis riding in that tank.

So will the Marines have to change their recruiting slogan?

“We’re looking for a few good umbrella holders.”

Obama: "No. Hold it over here, dumbass."

Marine: (To himself)"Don't touch my uniform, you New Guinea c*cks*cker."

CAPTION PING


U.S. President Barack Obama checks to see if he still needs the umbrella held by a U.S. Marine to protect him from the rain during a joint news conference with Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan in the Rose Garden of the White House in Washington, May 16, 2013.

Obama can try to make these Marines look bad, but he's only serving to reveal himself,, and the revelation is not flattering.
