FOLLOWING IS A HEARTFELT THANK YOU TO OUR TROOPS THAT ALSO POINTS OUT THE DISRESPECT THEY SUFFER FROM OBAMA - IT WAS WRITTEN BY ELIZABETH ALLEN: To Our Troops Who Protect Us, Thank You For Your Service Stepping off U.S. Marine Corp helicopter in New York City Tuesday, September 23, 2014, to attend U.N. General Assembly meeting, it was sickening to watch President Obama return a formal military salute from two Marines standing at attention in their dress uniforms with a sloppy limp salute using his left hand which was holding a Styrofoam cup., a gesture that has been labeled the ‘latte salute.’ This is not the first time our valiant leader disrespected men and women in uniform. Remember last year, when he asked White House Marines hold umbrellas for him and then Turkish Prime Minister, disregarding uniform regulations that says Marines in uniform should not hold umbrellas? Similarly, the manual for Marine Corps officer cadets states the salute is “the most important of all military courtesies.” Even Bill Clinton, when he was president, saluted once with his left hand and after receiving instruction about saluting, never did it again. This president does not care and won’t apologize. Men and women who serve the United States in the military take pride in learning and giving a ‘snappy’ salute, even to officers they don’t like. Obama’s hand signal was an insult to every Marine and serviceman. The Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines and Coast Guard are more important today than ever because we face the greatest danger to our homeland in this nation’s history. When the best of the best are flying F-22s and bombers off the USS George H.W. Bush, they know if they go down, they’re on their own. This president does not back them up. Shame on this president that he was so utterly disrespectful to those men and women who pledge their lives to protect us and our great country. In addition, no president should say, “No Boots On The Ground.” It is an offensive disrespectful phrase the liberal media invented. They are ground troops. Heroes whose service is praiseworthy and protects the freedom we have today. God Bless Them And Keep Them Safe. - Elizabeth Allen (mychal-massie/premium)
