Obama in Jacksonville tells troops ... (mandatory rent-a-crowd)
Jacksonville News ^ | 10/27/2009 | Timothy J. Gibbons

Posted on 10/27/2009 8:02:21 AM PDT by markomalley

When Gunnery Sgt. Marcus Hyman was told he’d get to sit down with Barack Obama on Monday, the Marine knew what he wanted to find out: What’s the president’s plan for Afghanistan?

Obama didn’t go into great detail answering Hyman, the young man said after their chat, but the future of the faltering war was clearly on the president’s mind during his afternoon visit to Jacksonville Naval Air Station.

(snip)

Not everyone in the audience was as excited — some sailors said they were upset about being ordered to come — but for many, the speech was a unique opportunity.

Obama was clearly uncomfortable/out of his element with this audience.

Clearly

I understand Obama has never served in the military but isn’t it common sense to non-Navy that it is pronounced Core Man?

I'm assuming he's heard of the Peace Corpse.

“Have you heard one member of the press call him out on this egregious slip?!”~Flyer

“Only one place on the entire net talking about this and they refer to us.”~NOFFC

Hey N,

Remember the press lambasting this guy and to this day referring to him as an dummy because of it? All over the spelling of Potato? I think this gaffe by Obama far surpasses that!!!

“..His most famous blunder occurred when he corrected student William Figueroa's correct spelling of “potato” to “potatoe” at an elementary school spelling bee in Trenton, New Jersey, on June 15, 1992.[15][16] Although he was relying on cards provided by the school which included the misspelling, Quayle was widely lambasted for his apparent inability to spell the word “potato”.”

The Kenyan Clown commits yet another ridiculous pratfall.

I have read through his exams and answers to those exams (posted here by the New York Times), and I am not surprised at this blunder; he makes a large number of word use errors in the written word, and it is little surprise that his pronunciations are equally spotty.

One-half sailor and one-half Marine who has no fear while he moves about the field to mend the wounds during the fight and stays to the end never taking flight so he can get back for the next Saturday night and choose whether to wear Navy white or his Dress Blues.
A-MEN, brother - lifeline of the Corps...as valuable to us as our M-16's

True but back then bad was not so much presented as good and good presented as bad;so much, in the news media.

Obama would not be POTUS in those times. It took a dumbing down, political correctness, a corrupt education with no real history tought, and a great big race card; to plan his treason.
