Jan 2006, Obama visited Iraq...This was right after the Iraqi elections. He also INTENDED to visit Jordan, Israel and meet with the Palestinians.
HE NEVER VISTED AFGHANISTAN before THIS TRIP as far as I can see.

I wonder if his little buddy Hagel was with him on the tour as expressed by the newsbreaks on AM radio here in VA.

Come on, Captain. That can’t be the long and short of it. The sun shone, right? The temperature moderated, didn’t it? Tables appeared with manna and cool drinks which replenished themselves as needed, yes?
Thanks for your service, Captain, and may you get your tongue in cheek self back home soon and safe.

Yesterday assuming his trip was to Iraq I posted:
“A day? Two days? How long is Obama going to be in Iraq? Long enough to state hes been there? Hell listen to what he wants to hear, and wont listen to that which he doesnt want to hear.
Hell come back and say we will pull out of Iraq just as he says today, but DAs across the spectrum will say Hes been there, he knows that of which he speaks.”
I blew it didn’t I. He went to Afghanistan instead of Iraq, and spent all of what, 2 hours and 45 Minutes.
This will make him the expert on the WOT per MSM.
I’m going to email all on my list so they know just how long this mighty warrior leader spent in Afghanistan.

Yes, we must protect the poppy fields. Without opium, what is a community organizer to do?

The radical left anti-war rhetoric during Vietnam included stories of Officers flying into Vietnam for a few hours to “get their ticket punched” or qualify for “combat pay”.
Of course it was all meant to riddicle the military leadership.
And now their prospective Commander in Chief does what?

Did they have to threaten the soldiers to get them to take a picture with him? (Like they had to do with Hillary, no one wanted to get near her in Iraq a few years ago).
