President Barack Obama steps off Marine One as he arrives on the South Lawn of the White House in Washington, Friday, Feb. 27, 2009
President Barack Obama reacts as he sees cheering Marines after he spoke about combat troop levels in Iraq at Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, N.C., Friday, Feb. 27, 2009. Obama moved to fulfill the defining promise of his campaign, announcing that all U.S. combat troops will be withdrawn by September 2010.
I saw this live on Fox and you can’t always tell from TV but it seemed that the audience was mostly quiet. The loudest cheer seemed to be when BO announced a raise for the soldiers.
Remember how Bush was hammered by the left for only being a jet pilot in the National Guard? What person in their right mind thinks this impostor has the right to be called Commander in Chief?
That’s what gets me about the “sheeple for Obama”. They are SO quick to cut down and insult/blame Bush for everything, but oh no, not Obama....don’t ya know, it’s now Congress and the Senate to blame....but NEVER Obama....UGH

A raise for the soldiers, but cutting back on the defense and supplies for them to use....hmmmm....
That Obama is a POS and is STILL campaigning and saying what he thinks people want to hear. NOTHING he says means anything or has any TRUTH to it.
I’ll have to remember that for a tagline. ;)
that back row isn’t even faking the applause.....
Now that's a Man to Man handshake, you can see the muscles tensing in both arms!
A Supersonic F 104 Jet that was known as “THE FLYING COFFIN” beceause of the 700 built, approxiamately 300+ Crashed and Burned Killing Their Brave Pilots!! President George W. Bush logged many dangerous hours at the controls and was a True Hero then, as HE IS EVEN MORE NOW!! ZERO can’t hold a candle to President Bush’s Shadow!
Can You confirm why You are absolutely sure, even tho We really do Trust You! We would just Love to have the details:-)
Heroes and Zero.
Is it a rule for a president to be saluted when he’s coming off Marine 1? If not, I have to wonder if ‘O’ forced the issue and is requiring not only a salute but a big smile from the pilot as well. Any ideas?
Oh, how he loves our military. God bless each and every one of them.
Damn sure not qualified to sleep in the white house.
Or me having to look and listen to his BS
I agree that BO can’t hold a candle to W. W is a real man and a gracious one at that. BO is a ruthless poseur.
My husband is a jet pilot and I really like pilots as a group. They are talented, courageous, accept responsibility, are mostly conservative and understand reality as opposed to BS.
This is depressing. Please tell me that I am living in a parallel universe, right now./Just Asking - seoul62.......
Those are Marines, not soldiers.
Marines aren’t soldiers.
