As the Soldiers where lined up to shake his hand, he blew them off

President Bush never did this and I can’t imagine McCain being so callus.

You don’t have to be a moron to be a liberal Democrat but it sure helps.

How can you say such mean things about a man Europe and the MSM is praising as the savior of America and the world? Shame on you Proof!

In his heart he spoke to every soldier, after all they, absent Bush and Petraeus of course, have been praised by him for the success of the surge. I know he feels their pain!

No matter the age or state of health, for a military man it is always glorious to tilt at windmills, rescue a fair Dulcinea and be a gallant knight in armor in a glorious cause.

If Obama, who has absolutely no experience with anything remotely military, is unwilling to listen to what the generals are telling him, why would anyone think he’d bother with mere enlisted grunts?

“Poverty of goods is easily cured; poverty of the mind is irreparable.”

I just hope obama’s injury doesn’t cause him long-term trouble.
What injury, you ask?
It seems that he’s twisted an ankle or sprained his hip.
As I watched him walking, I noticed a pronounced swing in his step.

I have had 2 reports from across the water that state the same thing. One from Iraq and one from Afghanistan. Both E7s with multiple tours. They have seen Congressional tours before, and are unimpressed with this one.

The man exhibits typical elitism.  He also is guilty of insensitivity and discrimination against those in uniform.  Not CINC material.  An empty suit.

Communism is evil

What a concept. A man who wants to be in charge of our nation that is anti USA military? That doesn’t seem to fit somehow. Hmmm?

It would be noteworthy, if any evidence could be offered that it was true. He did show up on the news, eating with the troops. And by the way, did any of the other senators on this trip spend any time talking to the troops? Was there time for it, or were they rushed? Come on, people...if you don’t like the guy, fine, but if you want to try to crucify him, you ought to at least be able to substantiate the claims, to the same extent you’d expect if they were attacking YOUR guy.

I spend a major portion of the morning chasing the news cycle & seeing about any angle offered of the obama trip & meetings.
One thing I DID notice was how obama was the only one answering questions or giving speeches.
THe others just sat in the background.
Instead of a fact finding mission, it’s clearly a political rally trip.
I can’t count the number of times he said “when I’m President”, or “if I’m elected President”, or something close to that.

I can’t count the number of times he said “when I’m President”, or “if I’m elected President”, or something close to that.

Or he compares himself to John McCain. Why would he do that in an audience that can’t vote for him?
He’s clearly putting on a gigantic photo op to fool the folks back home.

For any voter trying to choose between the two candidates for commander in chief, there is no better test than this: When American strategy in a critical theater was up for grabs, John McCain proposed a highly unpopular and risky path, which he accurately predicted could lead to success. Barack Obama proposed a popular and politically safe route that would have led to an unnecessary and debilitating American defeat at the hands of al Qaeda.

Well.....
Maybe he doesn’t realize the foreigners can’t vote for him.
After all, he thinks there’s 57 States AND that he’s on the Banking Committee.

Rebtex:  Remember John Kerry’s claim that cetain foreign leaders wanted him to be president?  That’s where this whole overseas Obama love-fest is heading.

I predict a campaign video of Obama in Berlin reminiscent of JFK’s famous “Ich Bein Berliner” speech.

"Here lies, in honored glory, an American soldier, known but to God.”

“As a conservative, I will not be overly enthusiastic about voting for John McCain on November 4 - but I will be sprinting to the polling place to do so!”
Matthew May, conservative commentator, The American Spectator

why would a soldier lie?

why would a soldier lie?

I don’t know, crshedd. Why would YOU lie?

“some of the information that was put out in my e-mail was wrong.”

Or were you merely “wrong” in your choice of words?

proof,

read the original e-mail, it is real easy as it is linked.

capt porter writes the e-mail from his perspective of being there. he does not say anybody told him this.

yet when caught in this lie all of a sudden it isn’t his words, it is from some annoymous person.

so he either lied when he posted the e-mail by not crediting the ‘person who told him about it’ or he just made the whole thing up, ergo a lie.

just because a soldier says something does not make it true. one way or another a lie is being told here but since you will believe anything against a democrat you don’t care if it is a lie or not.

Read it, you have yet to prove anyone lied in it. Try again, leftard.
