A total fuckin' waste of time? Wow. How fuckin' disconnected from reality has half of the Democratic party become? What a fuckin' elitist attitude. No fucking wonder his campaign has trouble connecting with the common people.
Obama makes the war one of his campaign cornerstones. He hasn't been there since 2006. He has roughly a 50/50 chance of becoming the next commander in chief but it's a fucking waste of his time to at least visit the troops and see how the war is progressing. Yes you are correct a DoD directed state visit won't give any real details other than what the military wants him to see but its the mental fact he was there supporting the troops. Maybe he needs to go over there and give a moving emotional campaign speech and promise those ladies and gents that make up our occupying force he will soon have their collectives asses out of there. Maybe he can give all the Iraqis that will undoubtedly face execution by having their heads chopped off when he brings the troops home his regards and a personal apology ahead of time while he's there, ya know maybe shake their hand or give them a hug 'cause they are gonna need it. He could also save us some tax dollars and have a meeting with the Iranian president while he's in the area. Maybe have tea at one of their nuclear facilities and check on construction progress.
Talk about the Bush/Cheney/McCain disconnect? It seems the other half has become equally disconnected from the opposite end of the spectrum. Son of a bitch I was really hoping we would have some sane middle of the road option this November, Obviously that ain't gonna happen so now we will once again have to vote for the "lessor of the two evils".
