I think that’s a photo of a market that was bombed a day or two after a McCain visit in 2007. Lefties love it and ignore the good.

Is McCain, Linseed, and Joe, going to pick up the fingers of hostages to bring home to toot up how well all is going over there?

I have no doubt there is a great improvement, but how long before trouble gets going again because we have a campaign for POTUS going on?

This focus on Iraq may not be a good thing. It was probably better when the MSM wasn’t focused on it.

Is he just trying to rub our noses in his RINOness?

He's too politically tone-deaf to know better.

The fingers of 5 US contractor Hostages were mailed to US authorities in Baghdad this week.

It has been on the news.

Good move on his part, we need a leader, maybe he isn’t quite what the doctor ordered as far as conservatives would like, but he is, I believe some one who is ready to take on the task!

The best thing about this visit is seeing the Osprey’s in the background.

Those things weren’t going to work, remember?

Why wouldn’t it be? It certainly was to the families.

Well, if I were family, I wouldn’t want to find out about it from the news. That’s why I don’t think its news fit for FR.

Oh, just my humble opinion... you have the right to say just about anything here, including that.

I believe it has already been posted here. It has been on Fox and other news outlets.

What do you mean “fit” for FR?. No one is hiding it and it is fact, not fiction.

I fear with a return of focus on Iraq, the terrorists will ramp up the violence to have an effect on the elections.

We are seeing more violence return lately.

Well, at least Hillary has been to Iraq. Obama will never visit them. I doubt he visits the wounded at Walter Reed

"Of course, he has to spoil it by going with...Joe Lieberman..."

Just the other day I was thinking how far the Republican party has fallen when the views and policies of our 2008 Presidential candidate are virtually identical to the Democrat's VP nominee of just eight years ago.
