The Sergeant is standing at attention, while jfk points to his ribbons. It is appropriate for the Sgt. to be at attention while being addressed by a US Senator, even if he disagree with him.

The sitting Marine really tells the story. IF GWB had entered, ALL the Marines would have to come to attention, as GWB is the CIC. But after that there would be group photos, with GWB having his arms around the Marines. A very popular saying is, "if you talk the talk you better walk the walk" (i.e., actions speak louder than words)...and GWB "walks the walk" when dealing with the military. All the time, and it is sincere not contrived or photo ops only. Military guys can spot a phony a mile away, and usually express it in their actions, but not in a way to get themselves in trouble. (Witness the Sgt. at attention, the other Marine sitting.)
Semper Fi! USMC 1970-1981

Screw Kerry,

John Kerry said Friday he would put Osama bin Laden on trial in U.S. courts rather than an international tribunal to ensure the 'fastest, surest route' to a murder conviction if the terrorist mastermind is captured while he is president. (AP Photo/Gerald Herbert) AP - 11 hours, 49 minutes ago


Let the slime be killed by the hands of a marine. That is the "surest route". Sheesh, if he was judged by a Clinton appointee, we would probably win a settlement from the US for harrassment, and set free.

Blessings, Bobo

If Bush had been dressed down by a bunch of Marines like this you can darn well bet it would be all over the news.

And Michael Moore would pay top dollar for the footage.

I guess it's not news that the military loathes Kerry and loves Bush, so the media has to focus on the rare occassions where the situation is reversed.

And that is the analogy of the day, now isn't it.

That photo should be put in front of every single military person as a reminder of what Kerry thinks about the military.

Great Comment.

Regards,
Joe

What bothers me, is what Kerry will do, when word of this gets back to him. He apparently has a reputation for stepping on people. I wonder what will happen to those Marines for speaking out.

Now what we need is the video of this and get some t-shirts made-up.

abc has it - saw some of the video of this event on Sunday on Steponallofus's show - at the time first Edwards appeared to have stepped over to where the Marines were all at that time seated; the Sargeant must have stood up when Lurch moved in for a photo op ...
