on newsmax there is a book for sale that says something about the way the Marines were saluting s***head that it was actually an insult, did anyone read this and how were they doing it?

I think the insulting salute was to continually look straight ahead as he passed. If I recall, the tradition and sign of respect is for the Marine Guard is to salute and turn toward the President as he walked by. Evidently, these guards stood straight.

Of course, with that insulting Doofus salute that the moron used to do, the total hatred of that man by the entire armed forces of the Uniteds States was completely and fully justified.

An urban legend that was exposed as such a long time ago.
