Funny how Barry leaves town right before more crappy unemployment numbers come out and stages a 'wag the dog' moment at Bagram. Reminds me of how right after the Rats got crushed in December, he took off for a 10 day world tour.

I am sure the brave military were so happy to see the Doofus in Chief stopping by for SIX hours. The man does not even know how to PRETEND to be POTUS anymore, he is shrinking in office every day

Regardless of his motives. If his presence in the area gives any portion of our forces there ANY encouragement or confidence, I support it.

I almost felt proud that he went there. ALMOST! Then, I realized it was a “look at the left hand and don't watch what the right hand is doing” scenario. He's a phony, through and through! Trying to change the dialog.

Did I mention he's a phony?

How many men and women in the military do not know what an ass this Communist is..All this will do is put their lives in danger..Oh maybe not he might give them a rest from all the fighting since his Muslim brothers will not want to shoot the moron since he is such a supporter of their terrorist acts...

I do not want to be rude but I just had to say what I was thinkings..

“Are you really in the “Biden for President” fan club?”

It really is a toss-up, between the Communist and the Clown.
