Symbolically, White House Tree Falls - Olbermann Reports

Like Bush himself, a White House Christmas tree is toppled by world events. So symbolic. Once the tree stood up, workers stood down.

Thumbs up to the marine for not breaking bearing

[Superstyle4]

lol its the white house and i love how the marine never moved the entire time

@Superstyle4 they are taught not to.

@kavo360 A big "IF." I'm fairly certain the tree fell to the left because it knew it'd break in half if it fell on the marine.

marine would have picked it up by himself if he could....a platoon of groundskeepersto pick it up!!!???

[mataleao1994]

Semper Fi, way to not move!  Although that Marine probably had more common sense in his trigger finger than those guys had between all of them. If he weren't on duty it would have been more like 1) Tree falls. 2) Marine approaches fallen tree. 3) Marine sets up fallen tree.

the commentary made it THAT much more enjoyable, too funny.

I'm glad tax dollars are going to a quick Christmas tree recovery team.

If that tree fell to the right that marine would have chopped it in half!!

Wouldn't it be funny if some random person was shot in front of him, and he still just stood their. That would make my day
