Is it any wonder that the Marines refused to display any enthusiasm when Obama came visiting on Christmas day?
When asked how they feel about President-elect Barack Obama as commander in chief, six out of 10 active-duty service members say they are uncertain or pessimistic, according to a Military Times survey.
In follow-up interviews, respondents expressed concerns about Obama’s lack of military service and experience leading men and women in uniform.
“Being that the Marine Corps can be sent anywhere in the world with the snap of his fingers, nobody has confidence in this guy as commander in chief,” said one lance corporal who asked not to be identified.
Nearly one-third of respondents — including eight out of 10 black service members — said they are optimistic about their incoming boss.
I hope and pray Obama does a good job as C-in-C, he simply cannot afford to fail… But then again, we’ve won in Iraq, so what could he possibly do to mess up?
