Troops know who voted not to fund them. Obama, like the Clintons, despises the Military and the Troops know it.
Obama is arriving with a menagerie called a CODEL. That means visiting firemen with zero credentials, zero credibility and generally a pain in the ass for those that must pull extra duty for security and give up seats at the DFAC for Obama and his merry band. The DFAC is the dining facitity in case you are wondering.

Obama will get a dog & pony show from the brass and leave in the same state of ignorance that he arrived with.

Next time, post on a subject that you have first hand knowlege of.

Actually, an American with self respect has self restraint as well as respect for others.

When Obamarx doesn’t get his way, he acts as though he’s been “punked” and jilted and uses the public forum to throw everyone into the dirty old racist tub. He uses the ugliest means possible at every weirdly conceived slight, slights that do not exist as slights except in his egocentric peabrain. He abuses everyone who does not play his fool.

Spare Us ‘08!

“I would prefer if he did not make the trip to Ramallah,” a concerned government official explained Thursday night from Washington. “And he must use extreme caution throughout Israel at this time, in my opinion, especially Jerusalem.”

Hey… the roses in the FTD ad to the right are photoshopped!

LOL let me guess, the pixels?

“I am … a jelly doughnut…”

Rep. Blackburn) hopes that the media reports fairly on Obama’s positions and the facts on the ground.

Yeah, and i hope that my cat suddenly starts shitting gold dubloons. Chances of that happening…..?

When he goes to Baghdad, somebody should embroider “Kick Me” in Arabic in the back of his suit.

Lets’ just hope that he doesn’t try to order any U.S. Army Generals to kiss the Koran.

Rep. Blackburn began by reviewing the military commitment from Tennessee to the war zones. Her advice on these issues come from the soldiers in these areas, “soldiers for whom Obama voted to deny funding”. They want to win the fight and build stability for the Iraqi government. The worst thing we could do is to take the pressure off now.

When Obama gets a good reception from the troops, Rep. Blackburn, and some others, better have the tums ready. They are going to need them.

She wants Obama to listen and learn? I hope Obama sticks his fingers in his protruding ears singing “LaLaLa” (like he usually does) and doesn’t learn, and gets his butt handed to him by Petraeus.

When he goes to Baghdad, somebody should embroider “Kick Me” in Arabic in the back of his suit.

Then his teleprompter in Berlin should read “Ich bin ein Dummkopf”.

She hopes that the media reports fairly on Obama’s positions and the facts on the ground.

Ha.

In the spirit of Obama’s statement about Bush’s and Petraeus’s SURGE—– I double-down on your “Ha” Pricilla and raise ya a dozen Ha’s………

The MSM “reporting fairly”? Blackburn’s dreaming.

…

His positions are poll or bad opinion driven and change like the wind.

Wes “the Belgrade Bomber” Clark mis-advises him on military affairs.

On foreign affairs or weapons proliferation, he slept through the class or is totally ignorant of history in those areas.

If elected he will crash the ecomomy within a year. Intent to tax US into prosperity as well. I hope that Hezbollah offers him a better position and he quits the race.

Obama is acting in his political interest, not in the interest of the nation.

This really doesn’t qualify as news, does it?

She hopes that the media reports fairly on Obama’s positions and the facts on the ground.

Ha.
