Treasonous and un-manly!:rolleyes:

Just what is the scandal all about? Forgive me but I must have missed Reagan's umbrellagate 30 years ago....

Here's a WaPo story on it. Much ado about nothing.

Flanagan also pointed to Title 10 of the U.S. Code, which states that members of the Marine Corps shall “perform such other duties as the President may direct.”

In this case, Obama had clearly directed the Marines to be ready with umbrellas if necessary.


Palin and Dobbs blowing the whistle for the racist fringe.....disgusting. The other Presidents get a pass because they are white. Think I am full of shit? Post me a link to anyone complaining about W using Marines and I will shut up.

Using Marines to hold umbrellas. I did not mean using Marines in a war based on faulty intelligence.

Fixed that for you.

Sometimes I give W the benefit of the doubt. Never Rumsfeld,Cheney,or Rove.

Well, maybe he was as dumb as a stump.

I still wonder where his trick or treat bag was? Or perhaps a Marine was carrying it.
