Obama in Kabul for unnannounced Afghan trip 28 Mar 2010 15:52:14 GMT Source: Reuters * Obama makes first Afghanistan visit as U.S. president

By Jeff Mason

KABUL, March 28 (Reuters) - U.S. President Barack Obama arrived in Kabul on Sunday for an unannounced visit to Afghanistan, his first trip to the country since becoming president and commander-in-chief of the U.S.-led war effort.

Obama's brief trip was expected to include a one-on-one meeting with Afghan President Hamid Karzai, an expanded meeting with Karzai's cabinet and U.S. officials, and a speech to American military personnel.

A White House official, speaking before the trip, said Obama wanted to get an "on the ground update" about the war from General Stanley McChrystal, the U.S. and NATO commander, as well as Karl Eikenberry, the U.S. ambassador.

I beg your pardon, that is NOT photoshopped. NOT!!! They were on AOL news for days. Why would you say they are photo shopped when they aren't???? Here are the rest:

**Do they now? Apparently Indonesia didn’t get the memo. ***

It is called the “cell” for a reason. The US cell doesn’t know what the other cells,Indonesian, taliban, Pakastani,Sudanese, ect are doing so when one is broke they do not comprimise the others. Only the grand puppetmaster knows what is happening.

Obama is probably getting verbal orders from the puppetmaster so as not to compromise the phones and other cells.

Sarc/off

Obama will, naturally, make a speech to them and get out.

Don't Forget These

[Jane Long]

Did the wife go with? Just wonderin’.

Michelle send him to personally make sure the Burger King is shut down?

[Popman]

All true except we were not at war in Afghan under Clinton

I may be mistaken but I do not think 1993 WTC was OBL work

Rush Limbaugh is out until mid-week, on a trip that supposedly took him “15-17 hours each way” ... I wonder if he went to the war zone again (and -0- got wind of it).

Well, it would be in complete character. It wouldn't be the first time the Presi__nt jumped in front of Rush in order to lead the parade.

THANK you, mojitojoe!

And I echo your question. Why would anyone say the photos were photoshopped when they were not. What would the reason be?

[Carley]

The picture is on a thread about TODAY’s trip to Afghanistan.

You posted a picture without context.

Now there are captions under the pictures that explain the troops reactions.

[mojitojoe]

You have a very interesting posting history and you came here today to just say some pictures were fake that are not favorable to your dear leader. Pictures, that are NOT fake. You blew your cover today. Looking back, you blew it long ago. You're just a fly under the radar troll. Popping in once in a blue moon to make yourself look legit. Consider yourself busted in my book punk. Now run over to the prayer thread and say a nice prayer for your dear leader. Also do a search for how to be a good internet troll, cause you sure aren't. Anti-Palin, blame Bush, went unnoticed, but when you said pictures were fake that weren't, well that began to set off troll alarms.

[mojitojoe]

Check out the past posting history and you will have your answer. We have located a fly under the radar troll.

[Farmer Dean]

Or Mecca.

[BobMV]

OK, now I get it. You’re just a person who will say anything no matter the reality.

[mojitojoe]

YOU asked if they were photoshopped. The troll responded and said they were. This thread is about supposedly visiting the troop[s, but we know it will be a chosen few for a photo-op. I DID NOT post the first picture. I posted mine to show they were NOT photoshopped because you asked if they were and the troll said YES. Clear?

[Farmer Dean]

“No but he did stop in France to pick up a white flag on his way over there.”
I thought that he always carried a white flag with him,just in case.

[Oceander]

Most likely the real reason for this meeting is so that Obastard can meet with the folks he considers to be his true allies in afghanistan - the Taliban - meeting with Karzai and the US troops is just window-dressing to disguise the true reason for the trip.

"They're looking at me aren't they? Are they STILL there!" ("Mind to face...fake enthusiasm.")

[personalaccts]

I know. that’s why there going on fact finding missions

[little jeremiah]

I think 0bama is trying to “be nice” to the troops because of fear of them.

[philetus]

Sure are a lot of black soldiers in the Army.I know they wouldn’t stoop to seeding a group meeting Obama.
