I
don't know each of your personal political convictions, and apologize
if anyone finds this offensive. I thought it was important enough to
share. This is my husband Jeff's first hand view of Senator Obama.

Hello everyone,
As you know I am not a very political person. I just wanted to pass
along that Senator Obama came to Bagram Afghanistan for about an
hour on his visit to 'The War Zone'. I wanted to share with you what
happened.
He got off the plane and got
into a bullet proof vehicle, got to the area to meet with the Major
General (2 Star) who is the commander here at Bagram.
As the Soldiers were lined up to shake his hand he blew them off and
didn't say a word as he went into the conference room to meet the
General. As he finished, the vehicles took him to the ClamShell
(pretty much a big top tent that military personnel can play basketball
or work out in with weights) so he could take his publicity pictures
playing basketball. He again shunned the opportunity to talk to
Soldiers to thank them for their service.
So really he was just here to make a showing for the American's back
home that he is their candidate for President. I think that if you are
going to make an effort to come all the way over here you would thank
those that are providing the freedom that they are providing for you.
I swear we got more thanks from the NBA Basketball Players or the
Dallas Cowboy Cheer leaders than from one of the Senators, who wants to
be the President of the United States. I just don't understand how
anyone would want him to be our Commander-and-Chief. It was almost
like he was scared to be around those that provide the freedom for him
and our great country.
If this is blunt and to the point I am sorry but I wanted you all to
know what kind caliber of person he really is. What you see in the
news is all fake.
In service,
CPT Jeffrey S. Porter

Here's the Googled blowback.
But first, here's what I think to be the truth. If Captain Porter's
(he will never be Maj. Porter) account was 100% true, as I am inclined
to believe it is, the Army's response would still be one of denial, and
appropriately so. Whatever, this squares with Obama's recent behavior
in Germany, where he blew-off planned visits to military hospitals
after being told he couldn't take pictures for the media. And, of
course, he is a Democrat.
