I call B.S. Isn't Senator Barack Obama part of the Federal government of the United States? Probably had an overseas fundraiser to get to...

[BenLurkin]

bttt

[Eric Blair 2084]

He didn’t make that decision.

Blame his handlers, campaign advisors and well paid PR people.

He hasn’t, doesn’t and never will be capable of making a decision for himself.

He is just a media creation who has great voice inflection reading a teleprompter.

This guy sucks!

There were also muslims ululating during his speech!

[Stephanie32]

The soldiers should have been his first and most important stop.

[gov_bean_ counter]

his visit was to show his appreciation for our troops

So Gration is saying that it is not appropriate to express appreciation to wounded warriors.

WTH is this "we learned from the Pentagon" mess???

Ululating 1:33 into video

[roses of sharon]

Wow, thanks for that info.

[ExTexasRedhead]

He’s a disaster for America and a disaster for your children and grandchildren’s futures; case closed. Our forefathers are turning in their graves at this national disgrace.

[mylife]

Enlightening isnt it?

[mylife]

Note Obamas response to the ululation?

He smiles...big smile...ear to freekin goofy ear.

[roses of sharon]

He absolutely relates to the ululation, most definitely.

God help us.

[mylife]

I hope the word on this spreads quickly

“Barack Obama will not be coming to us,” a spokesperson for the U.S. military hospital in Landstuhl told Der Spiegel. “I don't know why.”

Maybe Obama was afraid they would NOT be healed by his presence as he walked through the ward, thus revealing that he isn't a messiah after all.

[gov_bean_ counter]

IMHO, Obama couldn’t handle being told by people who had lost a limb that it was worth it and they would do it again.

[BuckyKat]

Last I heard, He went to the gym instead. Heavens, he could catch something by mingling with those “losers.” /sarc

I think I posted this on another thread, but.....

Great ad material for the McCain camp.

Obama vs. Obama

Obama — I really do care about the troops

Obama — I couldn’t visit the wounded soldiers in Germany because I shot hoops.

Voiceover — Do you really want Barack Obama to be your Commander in Chief.

(Guess I changed it somewhat.)

Hope to it, McCain camp and RNC.

[Salvation]

Oops

Hop to it, McCain camp and RNC.
