Moving to his remarks, Obama said, “Now, here in Afghanistan ...” Then, someone in the crowd shouted out, “Coast Guard!”

“Coast Guard?” Obama repeated. “Is that what I heard?”

The Coast Guard in Afghanistan?

I wonder if it was a Navy CorpseMan who hollered it out.

Right now, someone in Bagram is collecting on a bet...

As an ex-Coastie, I’d say the CG is better off when he forgets about them. :-)

As much as I can’t stand Obama, I think this accusation is a little over the top. One, the Coast Guard was not there, and two, when others slip up and not mention the Coast Guard we don’t treat it like a mortal sin. Like in this Great! Gene Simmons tribute to the Military, that we were all on here a few weeks ago going crazy about. Nobody mentioned he didn’t mention the Coast Guard.

Yeah, the Coast Guard, I am surprised that the CIC doesn’t even know how many services there are. The Coast Guard was a service before the Marines were, the Marines used to be an attachment to the Navy, now they are their own service.

Oh! Oh oh oh! Looks like the press finally got a clue about who it is they have pushed on America.

Hey Main Stream Media!!!: We no longer trust you at all! We know why you are not fighting Net Neutrality as hard as you should be! You don’t like the competition, and worse, we are finding out the truth WITH OUT YOU. Which means, WE DON’T NEED YOU anymore.

Now that you are pulling your heads out of Obama’s..... camp, you will see what it is you have done. We know all about that here already. The Tea Party isn’t so much a lot of middle of the road people. Neither extreme right or extreme left, but with out a doubt, we are center right, which is EXACRLY what the demographic of the Tea Party! Not that you all in the press have noticed this glaringly obvious fact.... There are democrats in the Tea Party, a pretty fair number 20% or so I saw in one poll or another, Independents too, you see the Tea Party is only about 60% Republican. It takes no intelligence to guess the make up of the rest... Democrats and Independents... Maybe... Ya think? (rolls eyes). I digress, *ahem.

With the recent stories coming out in the last couple of weeks... the press has turned against Obama. Its only a matter of time now.... the zipper on the lips of the NY Times might finally be coming loose.

Did he give a shout-out to his other troops - the New Black Panthers, the Weathermen, and the Symbionese Liberation Army?

"I think we may have a few Marines around, too.”

What a flippant, arrogant, asshole. If he weren't surround by men in black, he wouldn't last 30 seconds.

The Coast Guard is no longer a branch of the U.S. military. My nephew wanted to enlist last year and that’s what he was told. He enlisted in the Navy instead.
