Will Barack Obama be the first American president to say, "Send away the Marines" - as in permanentl

Hey look, a different opinion! I should start calling names, it's beneficial to the discussion!

Ahh, internets.

Semper Fi!

Great pic, here's another:



PS: I think everyone can wait to get their panties in a twist until after an actual announcement of something like this came. Because it seems pretty f'n unlikely that even a "libtard" like Obama would axe the Marines.

Ok...everyone tighten the straps on your tinfoil hats, I have a conspiracy theory.....


Think back to fall of the Soviet Union....Mikhail Gorbachev....a rather anonymous politician, with limited experience, if elected to the highest office in the land, riding on a wave of "hope and change", and within 10 years, the 2nd largest superpower in the world disintegrates.

Sound at all familiar?

I am convinced that Gorbachev was a CIA plant, positioned over many years to accomplish the destruction of the Soviet Union.

I am equally convinced that Mr. Obama (who's career has a number of scary parallels) is also acting on behalf of a foreign power.

There you have it, your conspiracy theory for the day.

Dude, if you all of a sudden disappear I am going to freak out

Even though I was Army, I'll fight for the USMC any day.

Same here, sans the Army part.

The Inter-Branch rivalry is all fun and Games... Hell we used to go down looking for marines to fight with. but remember this:
When you step in-between two brothers fighting, you lose.
When you pick a fight with one of us, you fight all of us.

Damn straight, brother.

Bottom line is, the Army ain't the Marines. The Marines have their mission and the Army has theirs. Don't let the fact that the Marines were used like Army in Iraq confuse you. 'Course, they still kicked the crap out of the insurgents......

I'm trying to remember the name of the Act, but I just woke up and have to get ready for work. But, there is an act that passed through congress and was signed that makes the US Marine Corps a permanent service. So, needless to say, this is just some stupid rumor. Even IF he wanted to, he wouldn't be able to.

Republic of Panama. Graves and HBAR really hate that fucking canal.

I fucking hate that canal also. 8 hours at sea and anchor detail in the pouring rain.

[ERNO]

honestly during the 2 enlistments I did, this was brought up. under both Bush 1 and Clinton. They fear us, so they want to destroy us. They cant give us our own department, because we would take over the world. you know the drill.

of course this is about money. if they just disbanded the judicial, legislative and obama branch, there would be plenty of money for the Corps.

Why,so you can be free to run your own brand of imperialism and tyranny?
