This moron can't even render a proper salute

1. Correct.

The elbow should be elevated to about 90 degrees and the hand should not appear to be ready for a karate chop. :)

[lpbk2713]

2. And the left hand should be straight down the seam of the trousers.

What can you expect from someone who can't even open a door or eat a pretzel?

14. I'm STILL in shock that we have a total MORON

running this country. He looks like Stan Laurel in that pic. He's the goofiest acting male I've ever seen. What really gets under my skin is how so many people listen to him talk and take every word he says so SERIOUSLY. I mean he can say the most ignorant things and no one blinks an eye. Before King George,everyone used to LAUGH at such stupidity.....now they think everything he says makes sense. BEAM ME UP,SCOTTY! I've only been in the twilight zone since 2000. :crazy:

[CatWoman]

3. maybe he's channeling Hong Kong Phooey?

:D

[El Supremo]

4. He skipped that day in the National Guard...

when they taught how to salute.

Why do presidents salute anyway?

[beyurslf]

5. To be fair: Here is President Clinton giving a salute.

[stepnw1f]

8. To Be Fair... Bush Was in the Military

Clinton was not, though he should still salute correctly. Not sure Bill's salute is that incorrect.

[CatWoman]

10. excellent point, Stepnwlf

Bush got a direct appointment, tho he still had to undergo basic officer training.

that's one of the FIRST things taught in basic training.

23. To be extra fair

one of the first crap grenades tossed at Clinton when he got into office was over his "improper" salute. TV bobbleheads made much of how insulting it was to the Marine One guards (or so they happily imagined) and he had to make adjustments, while the press watched to see if he got it right or continued his "disrespect."

[johnnie]

13. Also to be fair

bush is a fucking idiot.

[devilgrrl]

19. Bush was in the military????????????????

When?

[stepnw1f]

26. Well... That is still Being Debated

[MADem]

12. That looks about on par with every flag/general officer salute I've seen!!

That's Louis Johnson, SECDEF, MacArthur, and Omar Bradley in Tokyo, 1950.



Here's John McCain's daddy, the senior guy in that gaggle, returning a salute to someone off camera.

[wakeme2008]

15. that looks proper to me

but what do I know I was only in the Army not the Air Farce.. :rofl:

[undeterred]

25. Now why did I imagine Clinton giving another kind of salute?

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

6. Give him a break. He was of the exalted officer class.

Doing things properly in the military are relegated to the working class.

[Minnesota Libra]

7. The WH Idiot can't do anything right can he?? He makes..........

....me want to :puke:

[johnfunk]

9. Why won't the former Texas governor show proper respect for our troops?

Perhaps it's because this recipient of elitist affirmative action just doesn't give a flying Cheney about the "unprivileged."

[buff2]

11. Look at the pic in post no. 5 of President Clinton

Now look at that freakin moron you have in your post.......what a difference! Look at how mean the King of all Christians looks....then look at a pleasant,good looking REAL President. It makes me want to throw up buckets when I think of what we've got in the people's house. Geesus,Gawd almighty......why can't that bastard be in Kenneth Lay's place? WHY,WHY......... WHY????? :puke:

[adriennui]

16. geez, what a buffoon.

he's such an embarrassing creature.

[lpbk2713]

17. Even a three-year-old can do better than that.

[Ringo84]

18. Re:

Duh! I'm the Decider!

Dumbass.

[lpbk2713]

20. Interesting comparison right here ----->

[smokey nj]

21. Is the chimp saluting Barney? n/t

[Richard Steele]

22. Not really a salute, just a reflex reaction to any sudden movement...

[ContraBass Black]

24. He's coming out of a narrow doorway and down stairs.

If he didn't tighten up afterward, then he looks like an idiot.
