Obama-in-charge???
Isn't he the "Commander-in-Chief"? Aren't those soldiers under his command? He is, once again, out of his league. He is about parties, dinners, teleprompter speeches, TV guest spots, etc. Who's running the country??? Emmanuel, Axelrod, Bigalla, Palosi, Reed?

Obama, I don't understand the difference
What I don't understand is Obama says he has gone to Walter-Reed and other places to see the wounded so he feels it was not necessary to go see these wounded?

ALL our wounded should be visited by any Congress representative, Obama was being paid by our tax dollars part of the time over there, so he had an obligation to visit our wounded.

Obama excuse is un-excuseable and un-American. He found time to run down America while in Germany.

Obama is NOT fit to be President.

Hey Freddie
Anything to keep the "marxist" out is fine with me.

Truth!
All the complaints about McCain's ad's must have hit home, or other wise the complaints would not be so hostile. You really don't have to make anything up about Obama, he has quite a bit of baggage he really needs to address. Wright, Rizo,radical bombers,land deals, 130 present votes when he was in the State Senate. I won't vote for Obama because of his stance on Abortion. Abortion is murder, no matter how you look at it. Like in anything else follow the money, it has nothing to do with protecting women. I live in Kansas and "Tiller the Baby Killer", who help get our governor elected, makes 5000 for each baby he kills, Now that makes for a lot of money to protect. Why do the Dems protect such a practice, could it be all the money they get from the pro-choice groups?

Obama's troops wear skirts, and skirt...
...any confrontation that might open the door, and allow fresh air to enter the room. Had Obama paid a visit to wounded troops, I'm sure his skirt would have been blown up around his neck. His butt would have been kicked so hard by wounded soldiers, his cheeks would be his shoulders. Just one question, from one wounded soldier asking, "Why did you not support adding troops? Had there been, I would not be here, has my tour of duty ended the day before I was wounded. I guess you decided my extended tour of duty in a hospital was better then sending someone to relieve me?" While the previous quote did not happen, its possibility of occuring was what Obama sought to deny. The liberal left critter avoids any connection with that which infers a negative connection. Being, of themselves, a negative on our republic rule of law, the political system established of our founding, they can do nothing of its politics. Obama would have been candidate "of the people, for, and by the people", when he visited those troops. He knows he isn't, so he can't visit of our politics.
