My Marine neighbor’s Father has a bumper sticker that says:
Marines die so you don’t have to

Pray for America, Our Troops and obama’s continued Failure

It really saddens me to think that Obama sits in the same office President Reagan gave honor to.

I watched a History Channel program on Air Force One before the election. It was incredible how great the lengths and widths and depths were for the POTUS.

And I remember asking myself, "What the hell has Obama done to deserve that kind of loyalty or devoted service from anyone?

The thought still makes me nauseas.

I know I would have done it....regardless of what the price I had to pay would have been.

Me, too. You should read that article I wrote to describe how I felt about the thought of serving under Barry Hussein.

Fantastic — I have forwarded that to everyone I could think of.

Thanks for posting it up!

You're very much welcome. And thank YOU for showing that video to everyone on your email list. That is exactly what we need.

If we want to have a country, we're going to need to discredit Obama on the areas of defense and the economy. Otherwise he'll continue to be able to do more and more and worse and worse to destroy this country.

I actually had it sent to me by a reader at my blog who goes by HL. Most of the stuff she directs my attention to is pretty good - this one was golden.

I love going from tears to jeers - and then having that CNN reporter make an ice cream sundae out of it at the end.

As someone else noted: when it comes to the Commander-in-Chief, there is no such thing as “freedom of speech” for the military. That is as it should be.

Yet, there are ways that one’s opinion can still be “voiced”.
This is one of those ways: the silence was deafening....

May God grant us the strength to face what lies ahead.

Is it entirely possible...that I can be grinning any wider over the difference between a real CiC...and the poser that occupies the office now?

I found the silence during the Obama welcome to be more than a lil disappointing;

Where were the boo-birds?

Threatened with the brig ....

The mainstream press “pushed” the “applause lines” part of the speech very, very hard; “The biggest applause came when the President promised higher pay...” was a specific example of how they promoted the idea that there WAS “many” places in the speech when the Marines applauded.

instead of just one.

I FORGOT that!

Dang, I saw that too.

Good catch. Just one of a trillion lies the media have told to reveal their blatant corruption, bias, and dishonesty.

The only thing that can match liberal spending by Obama is lies by the propagandistic media trying to cover up for him.

This has got to be one of the most beautiful videos I’ve ever seen.

God bless our Armed Forces, and God**** Zero.

That Marine is holding the salute long after the President passed by. It looks like he is saluting President Bush’s back.
