So the White House decided it was going to "stage" its own surprise visit to Iraq. Here's how the mainstream press reported it:
Cheered wildly by U.S. troops, President Barack Obama flew unannounced into Iraq on Tuesday and promptly declared it was time for Iraqis to "take responsibility for their country" after America's commitment of six years and thousands of lives.
What a startling change in attitude. From zero to hero. But not so fast. If you're wondering how the man who consistently opposed our troops in Iraq and their mission could be greeted so heartily, you're not the only one. Shenanigans. And lots of them. Macsmind reveals an email from an Army sergeant who was in Iraq when Obama arrived...
This picture simply doesn't jive with Obama's earlier greeting and the military poll numbers during the election campaign.
The most obvious evidence of the White House's manipulation of the crowd that greeted Obama during his surprise visit are the photos themselves. Look at the picture above. How many African-Americans do you see in that photo? African-Americans make up roughly 12-14% of soldiers serving in the U.S. Army. Does that photo seem representative of that number to you?

They had to fish for that. . .
This whole presidential scam is a liberal media production.
‘it was voted down in 10 seconds’...
does that mean it is removed from the web site?
Besides, maybe there are some that remember what they read and it makes them consider it.
I posted it to the Salemweb, of which many liberals go to, and the press reads.
If we make liberals think, the sales of Tylenol will go up. heheh. good for the economy.
O probably thinks all the troops just love him. It's like the Queen going through life thinking the whole world smells like fresh paint.
No, but the way that site works, if two people vote down, the article basically disappears. I swear there are people who do nothing but wait for articles critical of Obama so they can vote them down. Sometimes I trick them though. I’ll post a positive article title and link to a critical article.
Lol. They’re prob journalists.
BS
Now why didn’t I think of that?
Question: Do you or anyone know if the 3rd Infantry Division 1st Brigade Combat Team dubbed (CCMRF)who is being trained as we speak, for widespread civil disorder, is this Pres B.O.s personal Royal Guard???
