I hope there are some still pictures of this episode available. I searched through Yahoo and google, but couldn't find any. If any FReepers see it, (attention Rintense), please post it to this thread.

I want to forward this story to my friend, a Marine with the 26th MEU on board the USS BATAAN, awaiting insertion into Afghanistan. This message needs to be shared with all our active duty military personnel.

The have a truly great Commander-In-Chief!

Semper Fidelis, Mr. President, we are proud to serve under your LEADERSHIP!

I recently saw footage of President Bush shaking hands with a crowd of servicemen. They were all eager to shake his hand, and all had enormous smiles. It was genuine admiration and a stark contrast to the reaction Clinton used to get in that situation.

Seig Heil! More technology to China.

Yeah. As I recall, this guy was doing plenty of saluting too.

This shows the advantage of having a President who has had basic training and military experience.

Episodes like this always remind me of the famous disgusting photo of the Clintonistas walking off the golf course to get onto the President's helicopter and the Marine standing there essentially saluting a golf bag. (Think any of those Clinton clowns would ever return a salute, lol?)
Things have definitely changed for the (far) better.

Semper fidelis,

LH

Dear Norb...Thank God we did what we could here in Florida to help GWB overcome the socialist-democrat's attempt to steal the election.

Best FReegards....Mustang sends.

Remember the incident when Chelsea descended the Air Force One ramp and, while waiting for her parents, chatted with the Marine at the bottom of the steps? When Hillary saw her talking with the Marine, Hillary chewed out her daughter, in front of the Marine, for talking with "a commoner". Also, remember when Hillary wanted no Marines inside the White House? W is a BIG change.

Norb, thank you for the *ping*

I've been away from FR for a week or so, and really enjoyed this.

I couldn't find it anywhere on line, but I did manage to capture it, and after much manipulation I got the size down to under half a meg, It should be viewable to anyone with AVI playback capability. You can either open it and wait for it to download and play or select save to disk, and then open it.

Please don't crash my ISP...;-)
