Let’s hope Bush the Socialist stays in Iraq,

What an effing waste of money! How many millions will this Dubya boondoggle cost?

There are thousands of ways all the dollars could be better spent than for Dubya to take an ego lap around Baghdad.

I voted for the SOB twice. How could I and so many others have been so wrong?

Well, I hope I've learned a thing or two from the disaster that has been Dubya.

No. He is still the commander in chief, and has every right/responsibility to visit our warriors.

Perhaps some see it as a farewell visit from their Commander-in-Chief to troops who are serving their country far away from their loved ones at Christmas.

What an effing waste of money!

[verity]

Stuff it.

There are thousands of soldiers and free Iraqis that would disagree.

Oh, I dunno. Al Gore, maybe? John Kerry, p'raps?

[prairiebreeze]

Did it ever occur to you that the TROOPS might appreciate the holiday-time visit from their CiC?

sheesh..

It’s the Commander-in-Chief’s duty to address the morale of those who will no longer have someone who appreciates them dictating their lives.
