And apparantly he chooses not to salute even a soldier receiving the
country's highest decoration. Some CIC!



Coward In Charge?




it is astounding that you militaristic bigots feel that receiving the
medal, along with a speech honoring his actions is insufficient, and
that a civilian must give a gratuitous and unnatural hand gesture to
appease YOUR misplaced sense of honor. The good sergeant can speak for
himself if he feels offended. I honor his actions. You are attempting
to impugn his honor and this country with trivialities. Perhaps you
have forgotten that at this time we are a country governed by civilians.
If you want a country where salutes are mandatory, there are countries
where the military is in charge - take your idiocy there and begone.


So yet another Far Leftwing Extremist Fringe Kook stands up for the
buffoon living at 1600 Penn. Ave. and kisses his Obamassiahs ass.

So tell me Bill..does it taste good?
