Fox Reports GWB and Laura spent a few hours at Fort Hood, no photo ops. Now that's a CIC.
Are you kidding me? Camp frickin' David? What, does he have a tee time close by? For heaven's sakes, he's the CIC. And he's taking the weekend off? This guy simply doesn't care. Unbelievable via Fox.
11:25AM THE PRESIDENT addresses the House Democratic Caucus - Cannon House Office Building
2:30PM THE PRESIDENT makes a statement to the press on Health Care - Rose Garden
2:45PM THE PRESIDENT and THE FIRST LADY depart The White House en route Camp David - South Lawn
Exactly. Whether they wanted him there or not, as the one and only C-I-C (though it chokes me to know it), it was his duty to go and face whatever reaction he might get. If he can’t even face that, he can’t face being President.
The Annointed One is waiting for the planned memorial service at Fort Hood, on a weekday, with full, fawning media coverage. He’ll turn that into a photo op, just like that midnight salute at Dover.
It doesn’t matter what the headline might be. it’s not about him. As C-I-C, he’s supposed to go. President Bush didn’t get a pass when it was Katrina.
no accident, just like his giving the finger during speeches. And visiting "57 States", coded reference to the 57 Islamic states
“And if he did, the headline would be that he was grandstanding.”
You mean unlike the photo-op he did with our Fallen Troops? /s
A president so stupid he doesn’t even know how bad this looks. Putting this Kenyan village idiot in charge of our military is like entrusting the Crown Jewels to Lindsey Lohan.
I don’t expect anything less from him ... he’s worthless
Good God, Benny Hill rendered a better salute than the annointed one, and Mr. Hill was trying to be funny. Thanks for the photo—and the reminder of our poseur-in-chief.
I’m glad he didn’t go. His appearance there would be phony and an insult to the troops. They know what he really thinks. In fact, I wouldn’t be surprised if his advisors told him not to go because the troops would show their true feelings about him.
So it would be about him. Certainly to comfort the brass who would have to stop what they're doing, and deal with the president.
President Bush didn’t get a pass when it was Katrina.
He did from me. He was not necessary on the ground there, and would only be in the way.
I'm a realist, not a mirror image of DU :~)
More like HMFPIC. For the non mil the P is for Pimp.
This dudes learning how to play and have fun while not on a budget - our expense. And I retch with everyone else.
Hey!! He gave a SHOUT OUT to them!! What MORE does one want from the Muslim Man Child Pretender.
now see, that looks like the infamous Rahm salute. These guys are puerile
No, I mean exactly like it.
DITTO!!!!!!
Not at all. At Camp David he can pray 5 times a day in peace.
On the contraire, these 2 pokes in the eye to Conservatives and the military is all part of a carefully crafted strategy. The first poke is avoiding Ft. Hood. The second poke, his rest spot of choice at this time, Camp David.
I’m shouting right along with you. I hate this man, I really hate him. He’s dividing this country into Americans and traitors, he’s pushing, and if patriotic Americans don’t push back soon, we can just write off the shining city on a hill, it’s over.
