The Significance of Obama's Foreign Trip
It isn't just the American people who want us to leave Iraq. Now it's the U.S.-backed Prime Minister of Iraq. That leaves Bush, McCain and the neo cons as the only people still committed to this war.

You know how the pentagon and Bush are about showing wounded soldiers.....It doesn't exist...no one hgets hurt in these wars, and absolutely NO CAMERA'S........Well Obama couldn't make his vist to soldiers a photo opp....so he said it wasn't worth it , as without the camera's he couldn't pander to the anti war liberals, so he took a pass!! How nice is that......He could give a rats you know what about the soldiers in the hospital..............Hillary would have gone anyway!.......Obama is busy trying to spin his wag the dog campaign into something.....but people are seeing through that now!
why would a visit to wounded troops have to be a photo op?
senator bernie sanders attends each and every funeral of those members of the armed services from his home state of vermont that have been killed in this futile war. every single one of them. he does it without cameras, reporters or any television crews running after him. he does it because it is the right thing to do.
not everything has to be viewed from the standpoint of political gain. our military members are being kicked back and forth like footballs, being used for the advancement of political ambitions by a senator who voted time and again to cut funding to see to their basic needs. coming from someone like mc(ain, that is especially odious.
in the coming weeks, the blatant dishonesty of the McCain campaign will become obvious to anyone paying attention. The only question now is- will America vote for the man who is obviously the mosty qualified for the job of president, or will racism , ignorance, and dishonesty vault John McCain to the presidency?
the fact he is even within shouting distance of the presidency is a disgrace.

Mccain just purchased some John Kerry flipflops. Size 6
I dare you to actually cite a so-called John Kerry flipflop. There wasn't any. It was just hype.
