That is about what I would have expected. Very good.

But remember glasser pipe, dupe, zigga and others will not be impressed by this short clip as they do not see the honor that you and I see.
Watch they will reply with things such as "oh its a rigged video, or those marines are war mongers, or they are racist, or they are stupid just like W" or any litany of put down they can think of.
 
LAST EDITED ON Mar-13-09 AT 08:17AM (MST)[p]I am by no means an Obama fan but I think you need to take a look at both of the settings in the video's. The Obama clip has all the Marines standing at attention, do you know what would happen to a Marine if he was called to attention and then broke out in applause? Especially in front of the CINC? This is a formal setting.

In the GWB clip it is in a less formal setting and the Marines are standing at ease, not at attention. One setting is formal setting inside and the other an informal setting outside in a combat zone.

I think the context is kind of important. I am not saying the Marines love Obama jus that the context of the two clips is different.

of course the setting is different, this is classic right wing stuff, right from the Limbaugh playbook, I think some of these people really don't see that, and others don't care, but it tickles the both of them.
 
Give me a break, you guys no doubt believe cartoons too.

How many in our armed services are drafted? so if they hate Obama we should start seeing a big drop off in numbers right away right? who's going to re up or sign up to serve a president and an agenda they hate that much? or maybe you think they're so broke, weak and subservient they won't take a stand. I guess we'll see won't we.
 
RE: meet the MARINES

Yep. There they go again, the hate-America
zigga and huntingdude, ruining a perfect thread,
for United States Marines and all the United States
Armed Forces. US Army, US Navy, US Coast Guard,
US Air Force and all the National Guard and Reserve Units.
(I salute my brothers-in-arms and I thank you and salute you Mom's and Dad's for sacrificing their sons and daughters for our
freedoms)
You liberal idiots should be ashamed of yourself, bringing
down our Country and Armed Forces.
I served 4 years in the United States Marines and
got Honorably Discharged. I served in the Infantry,
as a 0331 Machingunner. I was a Grunt.
I love this Country, I love it's people.
I am sick and tired of you commies and socialists
speaking out.
I took an Oath.
I took an Oath, to protect the Constitution of this
Great United States of America.
To protect this great country from all enemies,
foreign and domestic.
You commies and socialists, are domestic enemies.

Please, please don't dis-respect our Armed Forces and
all those who have died for this Great Country.
Please!

The majority of those that come and look at these forums,
are Americans. Americans like me, that put God, family and
our values first. A lot will agree with me. I don't know
why even you are allowed on these forums. Free speech?
Yeah, and take a look at all the Veterans and those who have
sacrificed and given their lives, for this great country, that you people are bringing down. You people hate the American way.

SEMPER FI!

RE: meet the MARINES

Tasty what part of not buying this crap makes one an America hater? that video is a joke and anyone who accepts it meaning anything is a moron.

What part of hating your president and your CIC makes you a America lover ? prove to me with something other than stupid out of context videos that our military hates Obama.

If somebody doesn't like their boss they can find another job.
 
RE: meet the MARINES

+1 bigandtasty and thank you for your service to our country.

We are lucky the one's that hate their boss don't find another job as hdude suggests. They love their country to much for that. It is interesting what the poster of the video had to say when you clicked on the "more info" tab.

Quote:

In fairness, they are correct. The events were different in many ways and the Marines present were subject to different behavioral expectations. There is, however, more to this video than that. If the content of this video were that easily debunked it would not still be drawing tens of thousands of hits per day. The different degrees of formality aside, this video is quite revealing.

In the video, the Marines exhibit obvious love and respect for President Bush. His visit was not an event that followed closely on the heels of 9/11. This video was taken after the worst days of the war and after the surge created major progress in the region. The president is visiting the troops in Anbar Province, the home of the infamous Falluja and Ar Ramadi killing grounds. This visit took place after the province had been pacified. In other words, the Marines showed their love of Mr. Bush even after the darkest days of the war.

The Lejune video, on the other hand, shows Obama entering with all the pomp and circumstance of a royal visit to the peasants. Hail to the Chief plays in the background; something that President Bush didnt allow during his military visits. Obama knows that keeping the Marines locked at the position of attention means that no comparison can ever be made to the loving reception President Bush regularly received from the troops. Obama knows how the Marines feel and will always treat them exactly like the rabble he sees.

This is the real truth of the video and why it is so popular. It warms the heart of Bush supporters to see President Bush receive the love, gratitude and respect of these warriors. It angers Obama supporters because they also see the love President Bush receives and they know their man will never see anything similar from the troops. They know that these warriors loved the last president and will never give similar respect to this one.

Boy on the video I could ALMOST see all the Marines almost wanting to shake the messiahs hand! They were really pumped to fight for our heritage, morals, and belief's for that guy! A commander in chief that despises the military and votes for defeat. Defeat is not in the hoorah vocab!

Oh yah Zigger, there is always a cup half empty, like you, we choose to view it as there is something in the glass!
 
RE: meet the MARINES

Well then, lets just let the military elect our politians and run the country. martial law seems to work out pretty good for other nations, sorry I took so long to catch on.
 
RE: meet the MARINES

I did vote in the elections Hdude, my guy didnt get elected though. Not sure how being in the military makes us less worthy to vote in an election?

Let us take this arguement then a little further. The suggestion is that these Marines are not as enthuisastic to take the orders of their Commander in Chief. That they are openly disrespecting their chain of command. Does anyone with two firing brain cells believe that the Marines choose which CINC to follow based upon their party affliation?

I spent 6 years in the Army and have been to 100's of dog and pony shows for dignintaries, including Gen. Colin Powell, Gen. Wesley Clark, Gen. Schwartzkoff and numerous Senators and Representative. The military will not allow soldiers, airmen, sailors or marines to embarass the CINC or their chain of command.

I don't support Obama nor his fiscal policies, he is however the Commander in Chief and every marine in those videos has sworn an oath to obey his orders. This is a silly way to try to convey a message that only Republican loving people serve in the marines. That is stupid.

If this is all you guys have to make Obama look bad you better get ready for a very long time of Democrat rule.

RE: meet the MARINES

ismith nobody said you shouldn't vote, I was getting at the point that seems to be made over and over and over that if the military leans one way or the other we should follow.

Our constitution says that the people elect the CINC, they did. those in the miltary have a vote that counts as much as any, and no more than anyone elses. why does this keep coming up and why is it saying it makes one an America hater?

Even getting involved in a thread this stupid makes me as dumb as the ones pushing it.

Glad you said it!
 
RE: meet the MARINES

LAST EDITED ON Mar-14-09 AT 04:14PM (MST)[p]Nemont explained it perfectly. Thank you.

Please explain how it "Says it all". Still waiting.


You and I weren't at these in person but feel free to give us your "interpretation". It's a free country and I will remind you AGAIN of the 30% approval rating. That my friend is a FACT.

We could also watch Spongebob and give each other our interpretation of it. Get back to me on that.
 
RE: meet the MARINES

After serving under a few past presidents myself I can say that those in uniform serve the cicitizens of the united states under orders from the commander in chief whether or not he is a butthole or not. That said I can say that although they do take orders they still reserve the human right to dislike whomever they choose to dislike and although they may follow "lawful" orders nothing says they have to be warm and fuzzy to those in command be they dumbarses.
I did not wholly support GW Bush but I would have given him more support than the current bozo.
 
RE: meet the MARINES

HD, maybe you can explain why AL Franken is trying to NOT count the military votes since you claim they should all count the same. I'm just saying.....

So Bugler Troops and Sailors are just like everyone else in the U.S.? Some are Republicans, some democrats, some could care less, some don't like politicians etc, etc. That is not what these two videos imply. They imply that every Marine love GWB and every Marine dislike Obama. If I were a Marine I would find that implication insulting and down right UnAmerican.

Also do you see anything in the context of these two videos that would lead you to believe that they are two very different settings and circumstances?

It is a stupid thing to involve military personel in political debates. They serve the Constitution, take an oath to defend against all enemies "foreign and domestic". I bet if you asked the Marines involved in either you could find a broad range of political thought in regards to the two presidents from support for either down to dislike for either. I find it a very stupid way to make an arguement.

With so many real reasons to dislike Obama's policies why is this one acceptable?

RE: meet the MARINES

LAST EDITED ON Mar-17-09 AT 10:36PM (MST)[p]Nemont I actually agree with you on this. These are two different settings portrayed here. Im sure there are several service members who did not like GW, im sure they voted for Obama the last election. But I would bet my lucky stars more service members would rather shake hands or give a real applause to GW, Mcain or Ron Paul rather than Obama.
It was the same with Clinton, the guy was an A$$hole that is first hand knowledge, and so is his wife who would rather share her bedrom with a woman no wonder Bill hooked up with Monica, his wife has her own mistress. That too is firsthand knowledge my friend. Anyways off the subject. Yes it was two different settings of course I would like to see Obama go to Kandahar and speak to the troops giving them a warm pat on the back, as president. I would like to see the sencerity he has for thm all I really would. I wonder what they think about him closing down Gitmo after they worked so hard and bled and died to send those jackasses there only to have them released and sent god knows where.
Bottom line is this two different scenarios and two toatlly different Presidents one taht actually got respect and the other, well lets just say the jury is still out on him.
 
RE: meet the MARINES

LAST EDITED ON Mar-18-09 AT 11:57AM (MST)[p]Bugler,

I agree with you 100%. I disliked Clinton from day one and still have no use for his spouse.

I really could care less who they sleep with or don't sleep with. The whole Monica thing was about felony perjury WJC committed.
