‘The Incident in the Rose Garden Rain’ Excellent pic displaying true leadership in action

Armed by the arrogant confidence that comes via a protective circle of self-serving, back-scratching politicians (including Republican ones), who do nothing to deter his increasing taunts against all things American, President Barack Hussein Obama continues to publicly trash the cherished image of the military.

Taking a leaf straight from the book of his overbearing wife, Michelle, who used military members in full dress as props on the night she invaded living rooms via satellite from the White House to announce this year’s Best Picture, yesterday big brave BHO used Marines holding umbrellas to shelter both himself and Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan from a little light drizzle in the White House Rose Garden.

The photograph of the two with the umbrella-holding Marines went viral on the Internet, but lost on an ever-taunting Obama was the stark contrast between the dedicated young men who serve the country and his anti-American self.

This president who holds respect for nothing American and who seems to consider nothing sacred referred to Erdogan as “our prime minister”. Was he planning to later dive, yet again under the slip-of-the-tongue cover, or was it part of a deliberate attempt to underline photographic proof that an Islamic prime minister can be served by an umbrella-holding U.S. Marine?

It is speculated Obama hoped it would rain to cut the questions short

The African communist scumbag has no problem simply dismissing his sycophant White House press corps, which nods in profound thanks for the time it did get.

This gives a whole different meaning to “under the American military umbrella.”

A good caption might be

Wow... what a great follow-up post to the one right above it.

No, nobody will ever confuse Reagan with the African communist scumbag.

The Kenyan was duly elected POTUS because either political party wanted it that way.

No one was even interested in preventing this national scandal.

It would have thrilled me if that Marine would’ve stuck the brolly up 0’s clymer and opened it.

... soldier or marine.

"You mean the guy holding the umbrella is in the marine corpse? Does that make him a corpse-man?"

I can’t believe Obama or one of his advisors didn’t realize how ludicrous it would look for a Marine to be standing in the rain himself while holding an umbrella over Dear Leader.

It’s too bad that marine didn’t place that umbrella where the sun doesn’t shine! BO is pure trash.
