re: The Starbucks salute

I honestly LOL'd at the half-assed salute. I guess they go through this multiple times every day so it becomes less meaningful. Reagan didn't even bother doing the salute at times, but yeah - Obama has to know people are going to rip him for shite like this, even if he's just acknowledging their existence. He's better off not doing a salute at all.
Obama is a civillian, btw.

In light of this information, it's clear that we can rank the presidents by how offensive their half arse salutes are/were.
Reagan- Major deduction points for any half arse or missed salutes because he's the one that started this dumb presidential tradition.
Dubya- As a former officer in the North Mexico Air National Guard, any half arse or missed salutes should count as a major deduction, however this is offset by the surprising number of zeroes throughout American military history up to the present day that half arse or outright miss salutes.
Obama- Completely free pass as his hatred of the military and all it stands for would preclude him from having a curiosity about or learning military customs and protocols.

Oh no he's not!
He's the Commander In Chief, as he likes to tell us over and over and over again.
