Ladies and Gentlemen,
I apologize up front for this vanity, but this photo is very telling.
In the photo, we see our military rendering honors to the Veterans (both deceased and still with us).
Why is it that this punk stands there with his hands folded? He makes it really obvious that he could really care less about America and our great Soldiers, Airmen, Marines, Sailors, Coast Guardsmen and Merchant Marines.
Why does he fail to salute our Veterans and our great society?

You just can’t teach patriotism or, apparently, proper behavior to those who hold no interest in it. Most people would pick up on what’s going on around them, note that everyone else was saluting or had his hand over his heart, but a narcissist never really takes note of others.
Also am curious about what was going on when this photo was taken.
Was the National Anthem being played?
Perhaps a "Pass and Review" by the Troops?
"Retire" or "Present" the Colors?
All I know is, this worthless slimebag should know better than to stand their with his Mussolini grin while everyone else is saluting.
I have never, ever seen such a flippant attitude at a ceremony for our Veterans in my entire life.
He knew how to follow what he apparently thought was appropriate protocol for a Muslim who meets the Saudi King.

INDEED TO THE MAX.


The man who calls himself Obama doesn't have an ounce of compassion in his body. He pledges allegiance to himself, and no one else. This man is a real piece of crap.
When he first began running for POTUS I couldn’t come to terms with his being referred to as an “African American.” He has virtually NOTHING in common with that group. I still can’t come to terms with it, and now can’t think of him as “American.” His upbringing and life experience, from his formative years, the experiences and associates he chose in college and law school, and on into Chicago, put him far out of the mainstream of the “American” profile.
What DOES he have in common with the average American? I can think of dozens of ways that every POTUS in my lifetime has fit the classical “American” image and fit in with the ‘common man,’ but can’t think of anything that shouts “American” when I see this guy.
One of these things is not like the others
One of these things just doesn’t belong...
Dictators and egomaniacs don’t salute. He looks like he’s smiling because everyone is saluting him.
He wants to be king of America. I fear what will happen come 2012!
Typically though they copy others. Like an "Oh I am supposed to show sorrow here" type of thing. The fact that he doesn't even attempt that makes me think he's doing it out of spite to patriotic Americans who hold these sort of rituals as sacred. (he and his base hold them in contempt)
We need to borrow his "yes, we can" and stick it up his ass.
I think he is just distracted by the beauty, slim lines and seductive power of his teleprompters.
Watching Zero’s facial expression during the wreath laying ceremony today, I got the distinct impression that he was trying hard not to laugh or smile. I could sense that inside he was giggling like a schoolgirl and barely able to control himself.
He’s a disgrace to this country and I long for the day that we can prove that he is NOT of this country or legitimately in office.
Send these pictures to Glenn Beck, FOX, Drudge, Rush and anyone else you can think of that will bring it to the attention of the AMERICAN people.
Not to change the subject, but I did notice that at Arlington Cemetery for the Veterans Day ceremony at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldiers she wore a extremely loud and bright aqua number when everyone else was dressed in subdued colors.
It is always hard to tell if it is just their complete lack of class, ignorance of all that is American or it is intentional.
I think it’s intentional. Nobody could be that crass and fashion-challenged by accident.
They are both a couple of ghouls and ghouls only know how to be ghoulish, not fashionable or classy.
I didn’t even see her. Was she wearing the green shoes she’s so fond of?
This is an unfair criticism of Obama, because it only shows one angle. I’ve seen a photo of this from a different angle and you can clearly see that the teleprompter never told him he was supposed to salute.
As far as Obama is concerned, I construe POTUS to stand for Piece Of Total Unadulterated S**t.
The Messiah is only trying to be one of Da Boyz in Da Hood. “Cuz the boyz in the hood are alwayz hard. You come talkin that trash, we’ll pull ya card.”
It was a really strange outfit. Check it out here.
Oh, my...
Well, the good news is we only have two years and months left until we can send him packing.
And, In less than a year we can put a halt to his agenda.
November 2010 is approaching.
Rummy Chick posted this same picture to another thread last night. When I right clicked on the picture, and then scrolled down to “properties”, and clicked on that, the information was that it was a Memorial Day event.
The picture in this article doesn’t give us that information, so I thought I’d mention that.
He's just a visiting dignitary from Kenya, what do you expect?


God help us all.
I’m surprised he’s not giving them the finger! Zero truly is a national disgrace.
Is Michelle expecting or was that belly caused by too much caviar, lobster tails and champagne? Scum.
This is news? Give me a break by now.
Also, better make sure this hasn’t been photoshopped. Otherwise, a major reaction will appear to be foolish after the fact.
It’s difficult for me to argue that zero is anything less than a poser POS, but I’m pretty sure I’ve read that even though he’s commander in chief, he’s not supposed to salute.
The First Woman didn’t want her husband to run for the presidency, because she feared he might be assassinated. He doesn’t fear it: the damn fool invites it with his behavior.
Weren’t there complaints about Obama saluting at Dover? I thought someone said that civilians aren’t supposed to salute. What is the proper procedure?
Good link! MO looks reeeally knocked up in that aqua suit. Or they need to cut back on her food budget.
OK, I’m a broken record on this. The POS TOTUS is extremely careful at all times because he must make sure that each and every photo of him sends the correct message to his world; the world of dictators, America-haters etc.
Take a good look at ALL of his pictures, including this one (this applies to Michelle O also). Whenever TOTOS or First Frump are the only blacks they are very, very careful to NEVER “join in” and do what the whiteys in the photos are doing. NEVER. Their constant, unending message to “their” world is: “We ain’t no whiteys. We be on YOUR side”
Gawd almighty this tool in chief is an embarrassment.
I have this image in my head of him like the dumped boyfriend banging on the door to the White House while the secret service troughs his crap out off the portico on his head.
Because while Americans were eating hot dogs, apple pie and letting off fireworks for Independence day, in obama’s youth he was in Indonesia going to Muslim Mosques. Those were his formative years.
He lives in America. America does not live in him.
I had the same impression.

From the fantastic ‘The Obama File’ http://www.theobamafile.com/
by our own FReeper, Beckwith:
Obama is a privileged African-American, who has not shared the black American experience. By birth, blood and training, he was a Muslim, who became a member of a Marxist, Black-African church. He is a socialist whose politics are rooted in Marx and whose methods were conceived by the communist, Alinsky. He is a master at shaping his own mythology and completely unqualified to be Commander in Chief. He is not now, nor ever has been, a “natural born citizen” — he was, at birth, a British subject and citizen of Kenya — a fact published on his own website.
He has lived for almost 50 years without leaving any footprints — none! There is no Obama documentation — no records — no bona fides — no paper trail — nothing! — and he’s got an army of lawyers making sure it stays that way — and the unflattering stuff, out there in the world and on the Internet — it’s systematically disappearing down the rabbit hole.

The Illinois State Archives told Judicial Watch that they never received any request from Senator Obama to archive any records in his possession. In 2007, Obama told Tim Russert that his records were “not kept.”
And there’s less on the web every day. In time, the entire Obama body of knowledge will consist of 3 documents — “Dreams From My Father” — “The Audacity of Hope” — and the latest — “Change We Can Believe In” — all written by Barack Hussein Obama or his “ghost-writers.”

ASSOCIATED PRESS Homeland chief warns against anti-Muslim backlash ABU DHABI, UAE Homeland Security Secy Janet Napolitano says she is working to prevent a possible wave of anti-Muslim sentiment after the shootings at Fort Hood, Texas. Napolitano says her agency is working with groups across the United States to try to deflect any backlash against American Muslims following Thursday's rampage by Army Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, a Muslim who reportedly expressed growing dismay over the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. The shootings left 13 people dead and 29 wounded. Napolitano was in the UAE Sunday for talks with security officials and a meeting with women university students in Abu Dhabi.
=======================================================
Senators to Napolitano: Show us the data
BY Michelle Malkin
FR Posted 04/17/2009 by Sub-Driver
Senators Coburn, Brownback, DeMint, Burr, Murkowski, Inhofe, and Vitter sent the following letter to DHS Secretary Napolitano re DHS conservative hit job:
April 16, 2009
The Honorable Janet Napolitano, Secretary
The Department of Homeland Security
310 7th street, S.W.
Washington, DC 20528-0150
VIA FASCMILLE
Dear Secretary Napolitano,
We write today concerning the release of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) report titled Rightwing Extremism: Current Economic and Political Climate Fueling Resurgence in Radicalization and Recruitment prepared by the Extremism and Radicalization Branch, of the Homeland Environment Threat Analysis Division.
While we agree that we must fight extremists who are both foreign and domestic we are troubled by some of the statements your department included as fact in the report titled above, without listing any statistical data to back up such claims.
First, your report states that Returning veterans possess combat skills and experience that are attractive to rightwing extremists without listing any data to support such a vile claim against our nations veterans.
Second, the report states that the millions of Americans who believe in the Second Amendment are a potential threat to our national security. Why? Do you have statistics to prove that law-abiding Americans who purchase a legal product are being recruited by so-called hate groups?
Thirdly, the report states that those that believe in issues such as pro-life legislation, limited government, and legal versus illegal immigration are potential terrorist threats. We can assure you that these beliefs are held by citizens of all races, party affiliation, male and female, and should not be listed as a factor in determining potential terror threats.
A better word usage would be to describe them as practicing their First Amendment rights. Also, you list those that bemoan the decline of U.S. stature and the loss of U.S. manufacturing capability to China and India as being potential rightwing extremists. We would suggest that the millions of Americans who have lost their jobs in the manufacturing industry to foreign countries are not potential terror threats, but rather honest Americans worried about feeding their families and earning a paycheck.
In closing, we support the mission of DHS in protecting our country from terror attacks and are proud of the many DHS employees who make this possible in conjunction with our state and local law enforcement. We ask that DHS not use this report as a basis to unfairly target millions of Americans because of their beliefs and the rights afforded to them in the Constitution.
We also ask that you provide us with the data that support the unfair claims listed in the report titled above and to present us with the matrix system used in collecting and analyzing this data?
Finally, we look forward to your prompt reply and we offer our assistance to DHS in our shared effort to fight terrorism both home and abroad by using data that is accurate and independent of political persuasion.
From Senators Coburn, Brownback, DeMint, Burr, Murkowski, Inhofe, and Vitter
Why can’t this info be in the Sidebar with it’s own Title so lurkers and Media can see what has NOT been released??
I don’t think it’s a matter of him not learning or not wanting to learn how to do something ... I think it’s deliberate. His petty little way of showing his contempt for this country and even western civilization.

"I'm fantastic. You're not."

I wonder how it will be before some good White House Secret Service guys/gals take an early retirement and start telling the word about the POTUSPOS posing as president and his thugs.
A friend in the past was a SS agent for LBJ when LBJ was the vice president. In about a year after LBJ became POTUS, this friend and a few others bailed. LBJ was an embarrassment, a liar and could not be trusted.
The current POTUSPOS makes LBJ look halfway decent.
I am sick of the sight of her.
Maybe he "knows" and is doing this on purpose. After all, it's not the first time.
I'm not saying it's intentional, but have you ever "missed" like this? Or known anyone who has? Or anyone who missed twice? Really. Ever?
