What a difference a President makes.... Take 2 minutes to watch this comparison between George Bush's visit to the Marines vs. Obama's recent trip. It is incredible. The Marines Show You How .... There's a 'message' in this video. You might want to view it ASAP as it's not likely to last very long on YouTube. It's not about Democrate vs. Republican nor about leadership...it's about TRUST.
Who would have ever thought that a US Commander in Chief during war-time would take an action that is so treasonous in nature.Yesterday we found out that, since taking office on Jan 2oth, Obama has, behind our backs, instructed the troops, the CIA and the FBI to give “Miranda rights” to terrorists captured in war zones. The “Commander in Thief” ordered US citizenship rights [...]
A few months ago, when Barack Obama gave his big Iraq speech at Camp Lejeune, conservatives pounced on what they (and some in the mainstream media) described as the Marines' iciness to their new commander in chief, particularly compared to a previous reception for President George W. Bush.At the time, some noted that the marines greeting Bush were "at ease", while the marines greeting Obama were "at attention." Today Obama paid a surprise visit to troops in Iraq and they greeted him with loud cheers, then swarmed him for photos and handshakes. Watch: I expect emphatic apologies and corrections to pop up across the conservative blogosphere later today.
Not a good very good comparison. Not just from the audience response but in the way it is handled as well. Particularly note the current POTUS on the conclusion of his remarks vs. the last POTUS at the conclusion. It's all in how you handle the people.
By Findalis Notice the difference in the way George W. Bush and Barack Hussein Obama have been received by the US Marine Corps. Hat tip to The Real Revo Different Presidents, A Different Corps View at YouTube What a difference! Semper Fi!
Andrew BoltTonyfromOz prefaces …..As you watch this, you need to be aware of the Military ethos. For parades, the men in uniform must be in absolute and complete silence. For something a little more relaxed like these meetings, it is not a precision event where silence is the order, and the men and women are allowed to express their feelings. Something like this just cannot be staged. This is spontaneous.What you see here is the general feeling of the men and women in uniform, doing what they do in our name.This video posted to YouTube by therealrevoBarack Obama last week addressed Marines at Camp Lajeune. His reception was rather different to the one George Bush got from Marines in Iraq.Gee, you might get the impression that US soldiers thought the war was actually worth it. Or something.Andrew Bolt is a journalist and columnist writing for The Herald Sun in Melbourne Victoria Australia.Read more excellent articles from Andrew Bolt’s Blog.Posted in America (USA), Barry Soetoro (aka Barack Hussein Obama), Military, President George W.

I get the impression that ol’Barack lacks a quality held dear to Marines

It can be safely said that President George Bush was liked and respected by the Marine Corps. Certainly a surprise visit to serve the troops Thanksgiving dinner during the peak of insurgent activity may have worried the secret [...]
