kallend 2,146 #4 May 14, 2014 RonD1120I'll give him one. I would still like to see him escorted out of office. And I would like to see GWB tried for war crimes. I doubt either of us will get our wishes.... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

airdvr 210 #6 May 14, 2014 Whom was he saluting as he was just entering the fuselage? My take on it is this; he gave a half-assed salute upon entering the helo, then thought better of it. If that's the only thing he fucks up today then it was a good day. And no, I don't think it was classy. How many times a week does he board that mixmaster?Please don't dent the planet.

I doubt either of us will get our wishes. If you want to wear the white hat, you have to follow the rules. I was floored by the complete absence of casus belli for Operation Kill Saddam Hussein. WMDs??? From the country with more WMDs than the rest of the world put together, and the ONLY country that has used C, B AND R types in anger? Give me a break. Even whoever it was that attacked Poland in the late '30s had the good taste to pretend that it was in response to an unprovoked attack, and GWB could not even rise to that standard of international etiquette. Sheesh. We are now getting what we deserve for having the great unwashed elect a complete incompetent. This guy is precisely what he seemed to be on the campaign trail the first time around - someone devoid of substance, given to meaningless hand-waving. His brilliance is tapping into the wellspring of stupidity (to which he is greatly in tune) that is our remaining natural resource.

Channman 2 #8 May 15, 2014 No vote necessary for me. It came across as a Damit, I didn't acknowledge the Marine saluting me as I entered. Let me go to him and offer my apologies and a thank you. While back on board, "were the hell did Michelle put my gulf clubs"? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you want to be the "Commander in Chief" it would bode well of you to salute the men and women who are sworn to protect your ass.Please don't dent the planet.

BlueSkiesDad 0 #12 May 15, 2014 If you look it up online, the practice wasn't started until Reagan and there are a lot of mixed feelings about it. Typically, you don't salute if either person is in civvies, so, even if the president has served, he's not in uniform and there is no reason for him to salute. On the other hand, the Marine will salute the office every time until protocol is changed and he is told not to. He's not saluting Obama, he's saluting the President of the United States of America.Think for yourself. Question authority. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
