No, President Obama Isn’t Designing ‘Girly’ Marine Hats
LatestIf you read the New York Post headline yesterday “Obama wants Marines to wear ‘girly’ hats,” and were a little skeptical that the commander-in-chief of the world’s most powerful military force was sitting at his desk in front of a series of hat sketches for new Marine uniforms saying, “This is too butch. I SAID GIRLY, GODDAMMIT!” in his best Miranda Priestly ice voice, your instincts probably served you well because that story is, most likely, poppycock.
On Wednesday, the Post ran a story about how a plan from the president himself to create a “unisex” new look for the Marine Corps. had put military officials “on the verge of swapping out the Marines’ iconic caps – known as ‘covers’ — with a new version that some have derided as so ‘girly’ that they would make the French blush.” Oh, and the plan for hat-swapping was set to cost the American taxpayer 8 million unspeakable dollars, yet another clear and present instance of the socialist gubmint squeezing its cadaverous fingers around the throat of the hardworking, God-fearing, French-hating average American.
