He may be CINC now but he shouldn’t let it go to his head. He still looks silly using a military salute as he did at the inaugural parade. Mainly because he’s never been in the military. Maybe Bad Bill did it, too. I don’t remember, but I wouldn’t be surprised. They are the only presidents since World War II who didn’t serve. Both Dems, of course. So take my unsolicited advice, BHO and stick with the hand over the heart. Achieves the same thing and, for an always civilian like you, it looks a lot less like you’re playing plastic soldier.
MEANWHILE: Now they’re asking. After swooning for Barry’s campaign, Big Media wonders who he is. For instance, he obviously can’t be everywhere, and he did lay a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknowns. But he also rather obviously blew one military affair that not even Bad Bill forgot. Still, he made the one for himself (i.e. CINC), even if it was a bit edgy.
UPDATE: On the matter of the salute, apparently there’s precedent and law custom for his doing it. Still, I think he looks ridiculous. In fact I think anyone in civilian clothes doing it looks pompous.
