That's Certainly a statement that I wouldn't jokingly make out of reasonable fear that the joke could be taken the wrong way. You are a bolder man than I. People have certainly been pounded by the pc police state for less.

Fuck'em it's a way of expressing your opinion on the value of a person, that saying has been around a lot longer than the mulatto messiah and it will be used long after he is gone. If the PC police want to play over that, all I can say is bring it.
 
I figured that those on the left would rush to deny that the military has no respect for their CIC. Then again, I suppose they have about as much faith in the military's respect for Obama as Obama has for the mission in Afghanistan.

These are REAL soldiers. Look at them. Not old white guys. Like the Republican Party. But salt and pepper like the United States. Diversity. Everywhere except the Republican Party. These guys represent the US and the GOP simply can't stand that fact.

What makes you think the respect Obama? They are in attendance because their commanding officer told them to be in attendance.
 
I have a friend who lost a leg in Iraq. He was there under Bush. He had nothing but praise for that man. A man who actually visited him in the hospital. A man who put himself out to visit the troops.

Obama? He has nothing but disdain for Barry. He thinks he's an asshole and has no problem telling anyone.
 
Does the Military Respect President Obama?

In light of the recent Robert Gates' new book whereas he attested that President Obama once stated "
"Is it a lack of respect for me?" Obama asked us. "Are [Petraeus, McChrystal and Mullen] trying to box me in? I've tried to create an environment where all points of view can be expressed and have a robust debate. I'm prepared to devote any amount of time to it—however many hours or days. What is wrong? Is it the process? Are they suspicious of my politics? Do they resent that I never served in the military? Do they think because I'm young that I don't see what they're doing?"

That got me thinking. Does the military as a whole respect Obama? Well I got to searching around the internet and found this damning military times poll. SEE HERE

Of course, in both the 2008 and 2012 elections he lost 2/3rds of the military vote. SEE HERE & HERE

General Jones (Former Commandant of the Marine Corps and NATO Allied Commander), Obamas former National Security Advisor had little respect for Obama. SEE HERE

General McCrystal had little respect for Obama. SEE HERE

Not to mention that Obama possibly has the most politically motivated and inexperienced National Security Advisor in NSA history. SEE HERE

He also has had the most White House leaks in United States history (Most of them to make himself look good.) SEE HERE

We all remember how Obama took the credit for Bin Laden. SEE HERE > The day he addressed the nation should be remembered as the "me" speech as he used the words “I,” “me” and “my” a combined 13 times in his approximately 1,300-word speech. SEE HERE

Gates likewise asserts that Obama kept the war in Afghanistan going despite having lost faith in his strategy years ago. SEE HERE

And it is also easy to note that Obama is the first president in history to nominate a Commandant of the Marine Corps who has never seen combat in a combat arms capacity and has likewise achieved an entire Joint Chiefs of Staff who have never seen combat in a combat arms capacity. In other words, they have no clue what the infantry are going through on the ground. Check out the combat action ribbons and Combat Infantry badges HERE.

More recently, Obama has been gutting military benefits while increasing that of unionized federal employees. SEE HERE

And we all now know that Obama was furious when the generals asked for more troops (He eventually gave them half of what they asked for) in Afghanistan with an entire political staff who was more worried about how it would look.

Moreover, there was the premature Iraq pull out without a Status of Forces Agreement that allowed Iran, Syrian Rebels, and AQ, among other terror organizations to use Iraq as a safe haven and launching pad. See HERE. Remember when Biden said that " I will bet you my Vice Presidency, Malaki, the Iraqi prime minister will extend the status of forces agreement?" SEE HERE

Today AQ has overran both Ramadi and Fallujah of the hard fought Anbar Provence. SEE HERE

And remember how he opposed the Iraq surge? I could go on, but the latest results of how Obama is viewed by the military can be found HERE

better question to ask


does obama respect the military???
 
Most active duty military men that I know will not speak against Obama because he is Commander in Chief. I would call that respect.

Whether they think he has a clue is a different poll altogether, and not one you will likely get any kind of honest answer on from an enlisted man.

They're under direct orders not to talk about him.

Couldn't help noticing that the percentage of respondents who categorized themselves as "Conservative" or "Very conservative" was almost identical to the percentage who disapproved of the way the commander in chief was handling the war.
 
Most conservatives would prefer a Military Dictatorship in this country. So long as it promotes Christianity.

All part of the "Chilean Miracle" they always refer to on issues like social security

Indeed- We felt the same way about J Carter. When RR was elected sweeping changes came to the military and not all were pleasing. While I was impacted by those decisions financially, it was the right thing to do.

I've not talked to a single active duty member - or retiree for that matter - who has the least bit of respect for Obama the man.

Every one of us respects the office. Although we often have heavy hearts over the occupant. I remember how I and others felt when the Peanut Farmer was there. We had such high hopes for him as he'd been an officer on a nuke sub. :(
 
People left the military in droves under Clinton, and it's worse now. A lot of them are being forced out by Obama.

As a citizen, Obama would never have been approved for a TSC by the FBI due to his associations with commies like Jones and Ayers, yet the boob is CIC! Amazing!
