I think they got all excited because they thought that Emmanuel Lewis was doing a USO tour to see them.

Obviously ODumbo is using code words intended to give aid and comfort to Al Quaeda and Baathist terrorists as well as to clandestine Iranian forces just itching to unleash their barbaric ways upon the population. It's a blatant signal for them to start the countdown and get their recruiting drives underway, line up their stockpiles of weapons, and prepare their lists of names for the revenge killings that will fill the power vacuum left in the wake of ODumbo's strategic retreat.

GWBush started from a point of supporting the soldiers and the mission.

Obama starts from a point of definitly NOT supporting the mission and having to PROVE he supports the troops.

Obama is confusing supporting the troops with “givem’ free stuff”

was that bottom picture supposed to look like the soldiers had folded wings (and the center and right had halos) as the “messiah” walks on stage.

Note how GW wore an army jacket and Obama dresses like an encyclopedia salesman.

Here we have an ethnically diverse selection of soldiers designed to show the make up of the US based upon potential voter bases not normally found in reality.

In other words this random sampling was put together to reflect those people that Obama's staff believes elected him....

Good evening Sir, my name is Steve. I come from a rough area. I used to be addicted to crack but now I am off it and trying to stay clean. That is why I am selling magazine subscriptions.

People who have a need to extend their left hand out and touch another on the arm (like Obama always does), smacks of paternalistic and arrogant behavior.

He doesn't do that to everyone.....

You are correct. Forgot that fawning, pandering, subservient and suck-up behavior.(:

But that was before he was POTUS, though, wasn’t?

That’s interesting and believable. Might it also be Alpha dog behavior?
