I wonder if the “campaign” photographed the phone call.

Anyone want to put together an imagined conversation? “Hi I am Barack Hussein Obama and wanted to thank you for your service in an unjust war...”

Did he call immediately, or did he wait until the overnight polling showed that people hoped that he would change his mind?

Did he phone from the elliptical trainer he chose to use instead of visiting the troops?

THAT SOB! He makes me physically ill.
His very name sounds like a noise made while vomiting. BARACCCCHHHHH!!!!
Good...it’s better he doesn’t visit them.He’s not fit to breathe the same air as them,period. They don’t need that circus crap around them,that’s for sure.Heroes and guardian angels don’t mix well with antiChrist gasbags like The Obamination.

No matter the size of his ears, he’s the most politically tone deaf politician in years.

“Obama chose to cancel the visit and instead phoned it in to the troops.”

Just an FYI to those freepers who aren’t sports fans: “phoned it in” is a sports term used when a team who is out of the running for a good season plays poorly because they don’t care anymore.

It is much safer to make a phone call to enemy territory.

It was very selfish of him not to visit the wounded troops. He could have laid his hands on each one of them and healed them all.

LOL! Little CYA going on there now.

Can anyone look at this guy and not see a CiC who won’t turn and face wherever the wind blows him?

That’s what would cheer up a wounded U. S. soldier: a telephone visit from a trojan horse muslim pinko.

And obama wants to become commander-in-chief? How does he think he can do that if he wont even go see the troops that he’s supposed to command if he were to get elected?

With obama it’s all about obama.

I got this from my cousin, whose son is flying over there.

Subject: From our friend who is serving in Afghanistan (Captain Jeffrey Porter)

Hello everyone,
As you know I am not a very political person. I just wanted to pass along that Senator Obama came to Bagram Afghanistan for about an hour on his visit to ‘The War Zone’. I wanted to share with you what happened.
He got off the plane and got into a bullet proof vehicle, got to the area to meet with the Major General (2 Star) who is the commander here at Bagram.

As the Soldiers were lined up to shake his hand he blew them off and didn’t say a word as he went into the conference room to meet the General. As he finished, the vehicles took him to the ClamShell (pretty much a big top tent that military personnel can play basketball or work out in with weights) so he could take his publicity pictures playing basketball. He again shunned the opportunity to talk to Soldiers to thank them for their service.

So really he was just here to make a showing for the Americans back home that he is their candidate for President. I think that if you are going to make an effort to come all the way over here you would thank those that are providing the freedom that they are providing for you.

I swear we got more thanks from the NBA Basketball Players or the Dallas Cowboy Cheer leaders than from one of the Senators, who wants to be the President of the United States. I just don’t understand how anyone would want him to be our Commander-in-Chief. It was almost that he was scared to be around those that provide the freedom for him and our great country.

If this is blunt and to the point I am sorry but I wanted you all to know what kind of caliber of person he really is. What you see in the news is all fake.

In service,
CPT Jeffrey S. Porter
Battle Captain
TF Wasatch
American Soldier
