Well, this raises an interesting question.

As a professional civilian who's not Commander-in-Chief, how is one supposed to act in such a circumstance?

I just routinely stand straight and bow the head a tad bit, for lack of knowing what else to do.

If this is when I believe it is, during the National Anthem, one should remove any headgear, place the right hand over the heart, as the other civilian is doing in the photograph.

I'm surprised you didn't bring it up sooner, TRG.  This kind of shit don't play well in flyover country, and we need to bring it up time and time and time again.  If he's this disrespectful of our veterans, think how he REALLY feels about the average person.  Hope and change?  There it is people--in full living ****ing color.

I thought about it Sparky.  But quite honestly I'm having to really try and keep myself in check about this crap right now.  What I'm seeing is disgusting.  I just haven't figured out a way I can truly express it given the confines of my current position ya know?

Fair enough, bro.  Being in uniform has certain exigencies place upon it, doubly so in a high-visibility situation such as yours.

Hold on folks...gotta put the brakes on this one quick.

That's not veterans day.  That has to be Memorial Day.

Sparky you should be embarased that an Army grunt like me caught the fact that ADM Mullen is in his Summer Whites in that photo.  When I saw him the other day he was in his Winter Blues.  Also notice that there's no signs of the rain that was falling on Wed.

So I will corrct my first statement.  It wasn't Wed. that I noticed this it was back on Memorial Day.

Which explains why I haven't brought it up in the last two days.  It happened 6 months ago.

Good catch.  But either way, his conduct is inexcusable.

From the site that the photo is from they found this photo of Obama in Russia.  They claim it was for the "Russian Anthem, but not American one!"

That picture of him is not at all suprising to me because he is the same man that while he was running would not put on a American flag pin until he had gotten the nomination. He is full of himself and always will be

Sarge,

Sent an e-mail to Atlas Shrugs, got a reply back.  Said they're going to try to nail down the actual date and that the actions are still inexcusable.  Good work, bro.

Thanks.

I was surprised last night when I got an email back from Ms. Geller thanking me for pointing it out.

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

Yet it is important we do so. Slowly, but persistently, chipping away at LZ's armor is the way to topple him.

Muslims are directed to not pay respect to the infidels religious days, customs, etc..

The jug eared, communist, muslim from Kenya is following the dictates of his religion.
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948
