You are right, I am slightly excited. I have seen post after post criticizing and whining. Guess what, the President took a calculated risk going in there. The troops are shelled periodically, without needing a special reason.

Secondly, before the President even landed, there was reported increased helicopter activity in the area. Now, I don't know, but if I were a terrorist... that would have been a heads up prior to the landing. But, no, the "mighty" on FR think that a thread here, that didn't give a specific, was the "risk."

Third, because of the original thread, I was given a heads up to turn on the news a couple of hours after the thread was started and was blessed to see the initial breaking news on the regular media.

And the rude treatment that was handed out to the thread poster in the beginning, and continued by mrobison and others is uncool. It goes both ways.

Thank God we have a President that has more nerve than you.
