Marines Enthusiam for Obama on Display at Camp Lejeune Speech on Iraq
Friday, February 27, 2009 | Kristinn

The Marines at Camp Lejeuene are maintaining a stony silence during Obama's speech on his plans to withdraw combat brigades from Iraq by August 31, 2010 and all troops by the end of 2011.

The contrast of the enthusiasm the military had for President Bush and this occupant of the White House is stunning.

I turned the sound down. I just can’t listen to that huckster anymore, and he’s on every single day. I just mute it and watch the market in the corner of the screen.

They’re trying to figure out which hand holds the knife with which Obama will stab them in the back.

They know when, they just don’t know where.

“He’ll get back at them for this.”

Zero already has...no raises for the military.

I thought it seemed rather quite compared to Bush as well. I bet he is very uncomfortable, a very different crowd compared to his normal Jesus status.

Na.

That’s because we are warriors not social workers.

is this the one on http://www.c-span.org?

Reminds me when they ORDERED soldiers to applaud for clinton.

The side by side is going to be interesting.

Obama is giving a racism speech to the military?

Don’t we have two agreements under Bush with the Iraqi government for troop withdrawal?

If they had an order to attack in both directions they would.

The Marines are men of honor and they take their oaths very seriously, I kid you not.

By all accounts, BHO has a hefty dose of contempt for the Constituion, and I kid you not on that also!

The Few, The Proud, The Marines!

The Many, The Vapid, The Obamaniacs!

Why would the marines clap for an idiot who’s going to cut defense spending?
