An Apology May Be In Order

I earlier posted a picture of President Obama under the caption, "What is wrong with this picture?"




After investigating this picture further, there seems to be a discrepancy. This picture may have been take at a wreath-laying ceremony several months earlier at Arlington National cemetary. Obama is not saluting in this picture because "Hail to the Chief" is being played. The other men are defering to him but he is following proper protocal by taking a proper stance.




Barack Obama displayed a proper salute at the Memorial Day Service at Arlington National Cemetary on May 25th, 2009.



Watch the following video to understand why Obama is not saluting.

I may have inaccurately concluded that Obama was revealing anit-Americanism. Apologies are in order.

    It is very respectful to see that you appologized to the mistake that anyone could of made, as it looked to all of us the same, but we can always expect things when we don't have the full truth.
