What I find interesting about this uniform case in Florida is the law’s exception made for Boy Scouts. Boy Scouts are prohibited from wearing (unaltered) military uniforms under its Congressional charter. The earliest uniforms for Boy Scouts in the US were surplus WWI uniforms, but the military buttons had to be replaced with plain or BSA-embossed ones to avoid running afoul of the charter.

This begs the question, at what point is an altered military uniform no longer a uniform? Surely there are military surplus stores in Florida, and surely its customers don’t purchase its wares for use in the privacy of their own homes. It’s incredible this issue hasn’t been raised before.

That being said, I think being 20 minutes late for your first Press Conference and then giving what amounted to a campaign speech was an extremely ridiculous start for Obama.

I think his approval rating, after just three days, has gone from 60% to 50%.

Three screw-ups in just three days:

Naming a man who lied about losing a finger defending Israel in the Israeli Defense Force when he lost it to a fast food machine, a man who sent a rotten fish in the mail to a detractor, and a man who was a Director of Freddie Mac for two years 2000 to 2001 and to date who voted to obstruct further regulation of them……yes I am talking about RAHM EMMANUAL, as your Chief of Staff is totally STUPID!

Not speaking up when Russia tested him on Wednesday by announcing they would be moving missiles to the Poland border.

Not renouncing immediately a letter from Achmadinajad asking Obama to eliminate the sanctions on his country.

I could go on, but hey, this is only his third day as President elect! I did notice he has his own “Office of the President Elect” seal already…..
