This is a remarkable video. It clearly demonstrates the difference in how two presidents are greeted by the United States Marines.
The jarheads’ greeting for President Bush is deafening. The greeting for President Obama is, well, polite.
Semper fi, indeed.

And when was the video of Bush taken? Was it soon after 9/11 when he had an extremely high approval rating, and everyone felt the need to attack someone? Also depends on the companies. Maybe one comapny commander was more formal than the other. There’s tons of stuff out there to attack obama about, this meager crap just makes your side look like a bunch of morons.
Wow, I didnt realize liberals were so deluded.
Bob, no matter how you slice it, our soldiers are not excited about a commander in chief that has been telling them this is the wrong war at the wrong time.
Its called reality, check into it sometime.

It was during Bush’s visit to Anbar province in September 2007.
This is also why our party is falling apart. I’m a registered Republican. I voted for John McCain. You calling someone liberal for asking questions is ridiculous. Like I said, there is a ton more to attack Obama with. It’s websites like this that make us look like complete morons.
Zhang Fei, thank you for the info.
Can we give you some advice? Relax. Find a woman. Have a beer. Laugh a little. We’re not a hard core political site. We’re just having some fun. Try it you might like it.
Some people cannot relax when the subject is Obama. You could have a video of him sacraficing puppies and his supporters would still say it was misconstrued or Bush’s fault.
I can only speak for those I personally know (5), that are actively serving and 5 out of 5 are not happy with Obama. 3 Marines, and 2 Army SF soldiers.
Bob, you’re not very bright, are you? In your comment at 12:40pm, you said “this meager crap just makes your side look like a bunch of morons.”
Then, at 4:13pm, suddenly you use the terms “our” & “us”:
“This is also why our party is falling apart. I’m a registered Republican” followed by:
“It’s websites like this that make us look like complete morons. ”
What a tool.
I’m a former Marine and the differences in the two could have been as simple as the briefing they recieved prior to the occasion. When you have an official as high up as the President or SecNav coming to give a speech all those in attendance are briefed on how they WILL act. That is dictated either by the command and how they want to be portrayed or by the individual’s aids giving direction on what is expected. There were several times when we were told to do nothing more than stand in the position of attention, other times we were told to let out a roar and let out presence be known. Neither of these videos is either suprising or informative to me. It’s all context…
Guess these folks must have thought he was Bush in disguise, huh?
