Just a bit of Partisan Banter (and just plain being a bitter loser)

The President of The United States is the Commander in Chief of all branches of our military. He is the grand poobah, the 4 star generals daddy, the most powerful man in the world. He must have the respect of his soldiers...right? The video you are about to see is a montage of President George W. Bush addressing the United States Marine Corp for the last time, thanking them for their service and courage in Iraq and Afghanistan, and President Barack Obama greeting the United States Marine Corp for the first time with his plans for Iraq and the Middle East. Should the different greetings send us a message? Hell yes. We should be wary of a President that does not have the full support of the military. Our government is set up in such a way that the military has no ability to overthrow our elected leaders (a good thing)which makes their opinion strictly focused on the current administrations national security plans and procedures. If the guys doing the fighting are not, we might have a problem. The Left loves to scream and cry "Bring the troops home" and "Iraq was a lie" but it seems as it always has that the military knows better than the peanut gallery. It is evident in this video along with numerous other interviews, videos and polls (SEE: 2008 Army Times Presidential Poll) America needs to pay attention to the small details (which over half ignored when voting for Obama in November) and really think about the direction our country is being led . (Of course, if we get attacked, lose troops, go into a depression, have a massive earthquake, fish begin to die or the sky falls, it was "inherited from the previous administration." Translation: It's President Bush's fault.)
