Marine Just Latest Victim of Obama’s Ego
Prosecutors say a California Marine facing discipline and possible discharge for criticizing President Obama on Facebook is coming up against a Pentagon policy that limits the free speech rights of service members.
According to prosecutors, Marine Sgt. Gary Stein posted Photoshopped images of Obama superimposed on the “Jackass” movie poster and a picture from “The Incredibles” renamed to “The Horribles.”
Prosecutors also say Stein sold “Nobama” bumper stickers and stated he would not follow unlawful orders from Obama.
The military policy against criticizing the commander in chief allegedly has existed in some form since the Civil War. Stein is accused of threatening good order and discipline with his Facebook comments.
It seems more believable that what Stein has really threatened is Obama’s own narcissism. This president has a notoriously thin skin. Probably goes along with being handed a kingdom he really didn’t earn.
