I just saw a clip on Fox News of Obama playing basketball, wearing a USMC T-shirt. Does anybody know the backstory on this?

If you don't like to wear a flag pin, you should not be allowed to wear a USMC shirt.

Obama explanation: It was given to him by a Marine before going on the court and threw it away after the photo op.

Maybe he borrowed it from Pastor Wright. He was a Marine.

Helluva note, that!
Met a ol’ China Marine onboard the ship yesterday, hope to spend some time with him , a real Patriot imo, the next few days before we disembark.

“Maybe he borrowed it from Pastor Wright. He was a Marine.”
Personally, that’s exactly why I think he did wear it - to reiterate the fact just as you did. On talk radio yesterday and in talking with lib friends last night, they are all over the defense of Wright as being pro-America due to his service and due to his commendation received (which I’ve only heard about and have no knowledge of at this point); thus, Wright’s comments were clearly taken out of text and have no bearing on the election.

No, it’s Du-ka-cuss in a tank.

It’s from HBO’s Real Sports interview with Obama on basketball. He played a pickup game with marines and they filmed him.

That shirt is brand new. It has not been in his inventory very long. Probably bought it at the local Army/Navy Surplus store.

What was he doing on a basketball in high school? Who’s basketball was it? Did it do any damage?

Trying to build up his military creds before, if given the chance, he'll snatch defeat from the claws of victory.

I’d tell him to take it off, too! He is unfit to wear that shirt.

That is perfect! Send it to Fox & Friends! Rush would love that one too!

My old man would have something to say about that were he still with us!

Why? It's not a uniform item. I wore a USMC T-shirt in college too.

Army Civilian employee for almost 20 years and deployed to Iraq for the past 8 months. And I still do not believe I have earned the right to wear an ARMY tee shirt.
This man has neither earned the right to wear anything associated with the US military. He should apologize for using the shirt as a cheap political trick.
