From http://www.redstate.com/2014/09/23/nothing-says-respect-like-smart-salute/

 

From Army Field Manual 7-21.13, The Soldier’s Guide:

4-7. The salute is not simply an honor exchanged. It is a privileged gesture of respect and trust among soldiers. Remember the salute is not only prescribed by regulation but is also recognition of each other’s commitment, abilities, and professionalism.

 

 

In a way we shouldn’t be surprised. After living through the dark years of the Clinton regime and thinking that we had reached the nadir of disgrace with the Beverly freakin Hillbillies in the White House we have had the current crop of low-bred grifters imposed upon us who have actually managed Bill and Hillary Clinton look cultured and accomplished.

The President isn’t required to render a hand salute, since Reagan, though, it has become customary. This salute by Obama may serve as a useful metaphor for his entire administration: sloppy, ill thought out, inappropriate, callous, selfish, and disrespectful. Though, in his defense, he may have been running from that thing covered in a red bag that seems to be pursuing him down the stairs.

No fake outrage. Not one bit. I was in the military.

 

The styrofoam cup thing is really stupid, I hope he poured

hot coffee on his face. But it is totally not respectful to

the action of a salute.

 

The Bush pic? ha. You lost that one. Bush is being hugged hugely by

a woman, and he still acknowleges a veteran or two who are standing there.

So, I imagine the woman is crying, in despair, and Bush still salutes

veteran(s) who are standing next to her.

 

Yes, if you don't know the difference, you don't care. But Obamao has a history

of having a disdain for our military. And our country. And our Constitution. He's a pig.

Hugging woman = holding dog?

 

Yeah I just don't give a shit either way about Bush not putting his dog down or Obama holding a cup up. I am sure both of them had far more going on than worrying about insignificant goings on. There are far more pics of both of them saluting the troops. It is a non-issue but every little thing is outrage worthy from both sides of the fence. I am sure Salon flipped their lid and reposted that Bush dog picture over and over.

Wait, I thought he was hugging Cousin Itt! Now the real question, was that Dunkin' Donuts or Starbucks? If it was Dunkin' Donuts, I will be outraged!

I would have thought the bigger problem would be the military being forced to salute a "present" commie scum marxist vacuum of a president. On a serious note, the guy has much more important things to worry about. I mean really, think of a list of the responsibility of a president and see where you put "saluting the guy at the bottom of the stairs when he gets off a plane"

I found this article on the topic to be an interesting read: http://taskandpurpose.com/sorry-presidential-salute-isnt-real-thing/

 

Some key quotes from the article.

 

On where the salute came from, and how no president did it until Reagan:

 

There’s no regulation that stipulates presidents must salute the troops. In fact, for the first 192 years of our republic, it didn’t happen. None of the first 38 commanders in chief did it. And some of those dudes had some serious military experience. Eisenhower? Grant? I mean, Teddy Roosevelt was a war hero. Surely he felt compelled to click his heels together and cut a perfect knife-handed salute when he passed a uniform service member, right? Wrong. It was literally something that Ronald Reagan made up one day.

 

 

On how a Republican advisor and Marine told Reagan he thought it might be inappropriate for the President to salute a soldier.

 

upon entering the White House in 1981, Reagan began saluting every uniformed service member he saw. One of his military aides, a Marine officer named Joe Klein, who is now a Republican congressman from Minnesota, worried that Reagan’s new ritual was inappropriate. He voiced his concerns directly with the president. Maddow writes:
“Soldiers were supposed to salute their president; the president was not supposed to salute the soldiers. No modern president, not even old General Eisenhower, had saluted military personnel. It might even be, well, sort of, improper.

 

 

On how there was no uproar about Bush's "Barney salute":

 

In the summer of 2001, George W. Bush saluted the Marine One crew chief with his Scottish Terrier Barney under his arm. It looked absolutely ridiculous. No one, however, questioned Bush’s patriotism. No one said that his dog salute meant that he lacked respect for the Marines or hated the troops in his heart.

 

 

Anyone care to guess why there was no uproar in response to Bush's "Barney Salute"?

Never saw a dog pic about that.

 

However, the president, for better or worse, worse as in Carter, Clinton and this pig of a pres -

 

is the Commander-in-Chief of the armed forces. Therefore, it is appropriate, and indeed, required,

for the lower-ranking military member to salute, and for the higher ranking member to salute in return.

 

It is the UCMJ. And, btw, you don't salute the person in uniform, Chris who knows not much, you salute

the uniform. It's a matter of respect and discipline, military bearing, whatever you want to call it.

Are you saying you don't see the dog that Bush is hugging in the picture Logic posted?

No, Os, lol, I actually didn't. I thought the dog was the black coat of the woman,

who is past his right shoulder.

 

Ah. too fast, eh? oops. But regardless, what is the context? The dog is his? or the dog

is the one whose master was killed?

 

Hell, you still bash Bush? I suppose you can wonder about the context of the coffee cup.

 

Idiots.

The lack of respect for our military is very much profoundly trended with Obama.

 

There is no comparison, except for maybe Carter, who was another pig.

 

Meanwhile, Obamao ordered, way, way too late, the bombing of isil in Syria.

 

In the nightime, when nobody was in the buildings. Meaning, he didn't want to kill

any terrorists, since so many Muslims still consider terrorists Muslim brothers.

And since, Obamao himself referred to his Muslim faith.

Logic loves Obamao, despite all his faults. Too bad.

 

Did Bush ever say he needed his own security/military force? Nope.

 

Obamao did.

 

This is interesting:

Yet, Logic, you show why we've been right all along -

 

you libs feign "outrage" at anything about Bush.

 

And your outrage meter goes still about anything about ObaMao.

 

That is the biggest problem with all the problems in our country today.

 

Based on political expediency alone, you and your lib sorts don't really give

a damn, depending on party to be dissed.

So you read very well and derived from my posts about disliking the president that I somehow love him? I feel sorry for anyone who has to take your order at a restaurant.

It isn't about me. or Bush. It's about Obamao and his complete lack of respect for

America, our Constitution, our military, our country.

 

You can't post one post about showing that about Bush.

You bash Bush instead of criticizing Obamao.

 

It is what it is. You heart Obamao.

 

Here's more proof of Obamao disrespect for our military.

 

Don't even bother to bring up Bush anymore. The styrofoam cup is just the little tip of the giant iceberg.
