President Barack Obama made a previously unannounced visit to Afghanistan on Tuesday, the first anniversary of the U.S. raid that killed Osama bin Laden in neighboring Pakistan.
The president will make a televised address from Afghanistan at 7:30 p.m. ET.
The trip was Obama's third to Afghanistan since taking office. He visited in March 2010 and returned in December of the same year. He also visited Afghanistan in 2008 as a presidential candidate.
Tuesday's visit came at a particularly delicate time in relations between the United States and Afghanistan. The countries have been negotiating a strategic agreement that would outline the basis for U.S.-Afghan cooperation after most U.S. and allied troops withdraw in 2014.

Disgusting. Whom does he think he is kidding?
You were right to call me on that and ask me to source it. I can’t. All I can find are repeats of it and one debunking by Politifact. I should have done that to begin with and won’t use it again. My apologies for spreading it.
I also can't imagine him letting a mere general sit in his seat.
I just sent this to everyone on my email list. Thanks for posting it!
;o]
Post of the year!!!!! ROTFLMBO!!!
I sent it to my e-mail list last night also.
LOL....via moonbattery.com
He’d better not interfere with part two of Hawaii Five-0/CIS. I will be REAL pi$$ed.
Sometimes I really don't think so......
LOL...good ones....see my post #108
Is it a sin to hate evil? I don’t know, but I can’t help myself anymore. I despised Clinton, laughed at Gore, wanted to slap haughty John Kerry, but there is no comparison between them and what we have in the WH now. This “man” and his fellow travelers hate everything our ancestors built, and want nothing more than to destroy it. If there is anyone that is aware of what he is doing, and doesn’t realize that we are in a war, so far without weapons, needs to wake up before it is too late.
The only thing worse than a tour in Afghanistan would be getting be drug out of you barracks so this jerk could parade around in front of your unit for the cameras.
You can bank on that... in fact the only armed soldiers anywhere near Obama are probably Taliban or fair-weather friend Afghans.
Don’t disagree with a single word of that.....
No apologies necessary. I read that post after I had already sent it. I’m sure some astute person on my email list will research it and send it back with red ink!
I’m with you. I didn’t think it was possible to despise anyone more than Bill and Hillary but Obama has replaced them on my list with Nancy and Mooch close behind. Actually, my list is endless and filled with Democrats.
Oh, I know you don’t, but some still haven’t faced the reality of where we are right now. On the other hand, I realize there are those that think the solution doesn’t rest at the ballot box anymore, and maybe they are right. But I have children and grand children, so I want to give the ballot box one more shot, because they don’t deserve what is going to happen if we don’t stop it.
If it is then I am guilty. I despise this sorry excuse for a president and everyone associated with him more and more. I did not believe I could ever become so angry with some one but this steaming pile of horse poopy pretending to be CIC has done it.
I can’t help but wish that his come uppance is swift and terrible.
I’ve been asking about this to friends and family, A person I really respect (me mum) suggested that his base is going to vote for him anyway, doesn’t matter what he does or says. Doesn’t matter that he ate dog, ran the debt up to 13 trillion dollars, drops drones in foreign lands like other presidents have dropped aid packages. This is to get the independant vote, those who are worried about national security. Since most people I know are absolutely freaked about the state of the economy, I don’t know what % of the indept. vote this could be. This looks desperate to me.
