Photos Of The Day


Apparently wingnuts and their enablers in the media are in a hyper-caffeinated snit over the picture showing President Obama disembarking from Marine 1 holding a cup while saluting two Marines.  While it's never a good idea to salute while holding anything -- and his other hand was free -- the right wing lit up with angry accusations of "disrespecting the military" and so on.


Well, when it comes to "disrespecting the military," it's hard to find an equal in former President George Dumbya Bush.  He sent our military men and women into harm's way in Iraq on false premises, and likely went AWOL while ducking the draft serving in the Alabama Air National Guard during the Vietnam war.  As far as salutes go, here's a classic of Dumbya including his dog Barney in his salute.  Tsk tsk, such disrespect!
