gotta share this

[Digger]

well this has nothing to do with Donzi performance but ...check this out. On the lift to Camp David last week the Pres went up the airstairs with one of his dogs in his arms, unable to return the Marine One crewchiefs salute...so he comes back down the stairs after putting the dog down, pokes the Marine on his shoulder, and salutes!! what a move! startled the heck out of the crewchief!
Thats my Commander in Chief!

Nice gesture but what a weak salute.

Hey Sam,

Have you thought about the fact that this photo could have been shot after the salute or just from a bad camera angle?

Thanks for the great story, irregardless of your politics, our president continues to show his character and leadership during very tough times for our country.

Off soapbox and moving along, Todd

Relax Todd, I like the guy I voted for him and his father. Going forward I think we should leave this site for Donzi info.

I saw the video on the news and it was a
full salute.....the photo was taken as the
hand was coming down..... http://www.goldenplasma.f2s.com/forum/smilies/happy44.gif

[Digger]

Sam, you're right. I won't post that stuff here anymore-

[RedDog]

Digger - in my mind that kind of post is perfectly fine. To me, it helps put a face on you that I may never actually get to see. Such helps us to get to know each other better.

PS - I picture a likable face on you

So Digger, I guess this means no chopper rides at AOTH II.

[Tony]

Maybe with all the Donzis that will be at AOTH II, LBJ could be talked into showing up for a "reminiscent ride"!

[Digger]

I'd love to be able to give rides....if I did it would be the last time I ever flew it...when I hit the lotto I'll just buy my own (after a 45ZX that is) :D

[raritan]

Just my 2cents worth. It would seem that the owner of the site should decide whats appropriate to post here.
Just a thought.

Digger,
Since you are working for us in themilitary, you can post anything you desire on this site. I am not a party member, or fan of politics or politians, but considering our characterless, classless, liar of a president that just left office, I think that this story is damn nice since it shows the current president adding class back to the presidency by giving respect due to people who put their life on the line for him.

My 2 cents. If what I said offends anyone, I apologize. I just call it like I see it.
Now back to boats ya'll

Scot,

Couldn't agree with you more.

Digger, If it wasn't for our Great Armed Forces and a President that really cares, We wouldn't have the Freedom to be on this computer right now! We would be running from Terrorist!! I love seeing the positive side to what we really stand for, So you have a two thumbs up from me! GodBless our Great USA! :D

[Crazy Horse]

Scot & Digger...I salute you both.

[riverrat]
