Chief,

You are correct about Obama being a phony. But those on the Left are no less enamored simply because the guy is a fraud and his “solutions” are anything but.

For them, he represents a self-delusional justification for not admitting that they are, and continue to be, inherently wrong about quite nearly everything. Rather than face up to the “reality” of their mistakes, they delight in their inexperienced demi-god, a cross between the Pied Piper and Peter Pan.

Obama did the right thing in not letting the likes of you use the injured troops to go after Obama. He’d rather take the crap you spew of not going then letting you use injured troops because he did go.

Shrug, ignoring the rights and wrongs angle…not visiting the troops was STUPID.

Certainly, Obama has no obligation to visit the injured while he’s over there. But let’s not forget, these injured soldiers are potential voters. If you’re gonna go make an expensive trip across Europe…it’s just plain bad campaigning to ignore people who can vote for you to talk to people who can’t.

But it’s not like Obama has been a pillar of brilliance or anything.

Buzz – Obama will have plenty of time to visit the troops as he is bringing them home when he is your new president.

Good luck getting him elected with the racist union Democrat voting block.

Ain’t happening. Your fellow brethren won’t vote for him in the numbers he needs.

Add in the thoroughly pissed off “PUMAS” and people like us who do not wish to sell our country out to anti-American Marxists and your boy candidate is toast.

But hold onto that “HOPE” if it makes you feel better. The real election is months away and it could still go either way. You just may get your “CHANGE” yet.

Chris. Proof is a right wing hack. What did you expect?

Andy,

That’s just about the most convoluted bit of horseshit you’ve ever written. Helluva an accomplishment!

Obama cancelled when he learned he could not bring his ‘entourage’ of media people with him, that he could only bring a few staffers and that was it.

The military would provide a photographer to record the event.

My thoughts is to keep the wounded soldiers from becoming a spectacle of the press, so they keep the press out and allow for more private encounters with the troops.

Obama did not like that, so he cancelled. He was not prohibited in any way. They were ready for him to vist and they had made all the preparations needed for his visit to the troops – Obama cancelled it on his own.

Then the Obama campaign sends out rumors of McCain using his military contacts in the government to impose this on Obama.

To me this speaks VOLUMES about Obama’s character.

The more I get to know Obama the less I like him.

Obama is a phoney, just like Kerry. We can see through his transparent rhetoric.

Oh and Poofie, the troops were pretty excited to see Obama. The pictures show soldiers getting their pictures taken with him, laughing smiling, giving the V sign. so much for the troops thinking he wants to lose. They obviously support him and I think will sjupport him for president.

That is what truly bugs you.

Step away from the crack pipe and take a breather!

The ones he didn’t visit? Yeah, I guess!

They obviously support him and I think will sjupport (sic) him for president.

That is what truly bugs you.

Andy: Mind reading is NOT your gig! What “bugs” me is opportunistic politicians who claim to be “for the troops” unless they can’t get their picture taken doing it. We call those politicians “hypocrites”.

Now you and ellinas and any other brain dead leftoids can come here and call me names, but I don’t see any of you coming up with a reasonable explanation as to why the Obamanoid blew off a visit with injured when he learned that he could not bring his entourage and camera crew.

Which, for the ADD afflicted among you, was the point of this post!

Oh, and to Chris, andy and all the other bullshitters here: Get a life! Each of you invents the argument I would have used against Obama if only the facts had been different. Bullshit! I deal in reality, unlike the brain dead leftoid mind readers who take what I didn’t say to use as an argument against me!

I’m on the record, little boys! Argue against what I say, not against whatever wet dreams of straw men you may have!

Poor poor poofie, Obama decided not to go so that you all couldn’t claim that he was using the injured troops for political props. So he was right to cancel the meeting. Either way you would have had a post to write, this is the one you chose to write.

The other one you would have written would probably have been headlined: “Obama uses injured soldiers to win presidency.” So he decided to not go and will continue to visit the troops at Walter Reed without press presence as he has done numerous times.

BTW, andy: I noticed that you did not dispute the facts of the post nor did you address the character (or lack thereof) of your candidate, but chose to attack the messenger with abortive mind reading or foolish speculation.

I guess if that’s all you’ve got…

Proof, you cry like a bitch.

the above post was written by me not Proof. How his name ended up on it, I don’t know, but I wrote it.

What’s funny is that Obama probably won’t even get a chance to withdraw the troops even if he’s elected.

They may well be out of Iraq, and some of them on to AFghanistan, having completed their mission despite constant obstruction and defeatism from the likes of ignorants like Buzz.
