(CNN) - President Barack Obama arrived in Afghanistan on Friday on a surprise visit.

He’s just trying to suck up, and get photo ops and maybe get a few to like him so if the sh*t hits the fan, they won’t ALL be against him.

[celtic gal]

Is that a Taliban alert?

[The Mayor]

Is he there to disarm our troops?

[SevenofNine]

ROFL that good one

[PA-RIVER]

You now have standing to play B-Ball with Osama Soebarkah. Sharpen the Elbows ....

Very lukewarm responses to his remarks. How was it when he entered the room - much applause? How long did he keep the troops waiting?

[sissyjane]

Why is he telling this story to them? They know about hero’s. They are hero’s. This is for the news cycle.

[NorseWood]

Did Michelle kick him out of bed again?

[sissyjane]

OMG it’s a campaign speech.

[peggybac]

I so detest this man. What a miserable excuse for the president of the best country in the world. How dare he talk down to our heroes.

President Obama in Afghanistan

Which side is he on?

[peggybac]

I hope someone tapes the applause and compares it to Bush as they’ve done before. Geez, at least W stood around and mingled with them. This ass is leaving.

[jersey117]

My first thought is that he was trying to get the reaction that W got when he surprised the troops in Iraq.

Bomber jacket and all. LOL. The only difference is that President Bush actually went on Thanksgiving Day.

Anyone here could photoshop the Puppet Spammer on his kiddy world bicycle, peddling around the mountains of Afghanistan?

[DollyCali]

Certain he feels guilty for no active duty military time & will join the troops in combat for a week or so..

Or, in the case of the pic of him hanging a curtain...ignore the fool in front of the curtain, too.

[dandiegirl]

AF1 is his home.

[Tenniel2]

Can’t happen. POTUS and VPOTUS never fly together... for much the same reason that all the members of the British royal family never do.

Bush surprised the troops for Thanksgiving. He didn’t make them stand at attention and line up to pay homage to him being there. He even dished out the meal to the troops.
One thing you can be certain of ...Bush cared about the men and women of the military.
I am a proud military mom whose son just returned last week from a deployment overseas.
