Does President Obama "uses" the military for photo-ops?

President Obama will tell us his comments fit the mood of the crowd, but when I first heard Obama’s comments in South Korea stating hundreds of troops in uniform was a good photo op, my eyes rolled. Our American forces are not a political tool to be used by politicians in constant campaign mode as a photo op.

ObaMAO has a habit of “faking” people representing certain professions. Like dressing up people to look like Doctors when they’re really SEIU hacks. You all sure these are real soldiers?

He’s lied about absolutely everything else with ease...

“Maybe I’m making too much of this”.

...I don’t think so at all. The real question is was this a Fraudian slip or purposely made as a demoralizer and/or to show the disrespect he really has for the military?

Obama seems to be in a CIC "photo mode".

The trotting through the headstones at Arlington (which is noted as something a President has never done)

The loading of the caskets at the airport(Only one family of a soldier gave him permission)

And now this rabble rousing reception....

I've said it from the beginning..."He's all about "what you see"...

Trying to create an "I love our troops" image...Pretty easy to see through him"

“You guys make a pretty good photo op,” the president said.

So glad to know my 18 year old son is graduating from Basic Training/MP School (Ft. Leonard Wood) next week & shipping out next month so he can be a great photo op for .....(choose your words wisely, YankeGirl...) his boss.

Sheesh!

I am offended and angry, sad and worried.
