Saw a pic of Bush leaving his plane after he landed on 9/11.
Withall he had on his mind he still saluted the Marine at the bottom of
plane and visited Andrews Air Base many times in the night, with no cameras around ,to pay his respects for the fallen.

Say whatever you want about Bush, you can't say he didn't respect and honor our Service men and women.
Spare me the fake outrage about the salute thing.....

That is not the point, and doesn't change the facts of who
respects the military more.

Frankly, honoring the military - even if just as CINC - is just not high on his list of priorities. Bush, Carter, Bush, SR, Ford, all served in uniform in one capacity or another.

Obama was a Community Organizer, never had high responsibility. Never even finished his freshman term as a Senator. I am less bothered by his lack of CINC protocol than his general lack of skills. Even the most fervent Democart cannot say this guy was the best possible D leader that could have been put forth by the D party for the last nearly 7 years.

A president who respects the military is one who only uses it for the right reasons.

As can be said about abortion. And in a "what if" world, all reasons are possibly right.

are those reasons black and white? or is it possible for a president to say..."what if ?" and then worry about the consequences intended or unintended later and would that make him smart or dumb? and who decides?
