No American soldier should ever be put in a place of danger without being properly armed. If Obama wants to staff the embassy with tour guides, let him recruit from the thousands of Democrat staffers getting fat and lazy in Washington. Stop using the Marines as props!
I wonder if anyone in Congress has the brass to initiate a bill to prohibit anyone in the military from being assigned to any overseas posting without being fully armed with loaded weapons and an appropriate number of extra magazines, and grenades. Would such a bill receive the 2/3 votes necessary to override a PResidential veto?
