‘The Incident in the Rose Garden Rain’ Excellent pic displaying true leadership in action
CFO ^ | 5/17/13 | J McLeod

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.

All we are saying..., is give our nation a chance...

Seriously, is it too much to ask to have a president that actually likes something, anything about the U. S.?

Obama is a great lover. Also a great receiver of love. How convenient.

He’s not much of a thinker. He’s not much of a respecter of his fellow man.

Look at him. He stands under the umbrella, allowing the Marine to stand in the rain.

He could have done this inside.

He could have had the podium set up so he could stand under an overhang.

He could have allowed the Marine to stay at his station.

He could have had that flytrap Carnie hold the umbrella for the foreign dignitary.

Lord PuffnStuff could have held his own. He could have winged it in the sprinkle.

Pathetic.

There is no life form in the multiverse that is not superior to that miserable pile of excrement.

Or they can photoshop this one by replacing the flag with an umbrella.
