What a load of malarky:
AP: Obama had been planning to go to Landstuhl Regional Medical Center in Germany before a flight to Paris. Gibbs said the stop was cancelled because Obama decided “it would be inappropriate to make a stop to visit troops at a U.S. military facility as part of a trip funded by the campaign.”
Inappropriate? In what way?
Because it would come out of his own pocket (figuratively speaking) and not be payed for by US taxpayers perhaps.
Perhaps visiting wounded heroes was too risky a photo op.
How could a man who wants to be Commander in Chief, who already acts like he is the president when it furthers his agenda, refuse an opportunity to visit wounded troops?
Shame on him.
And don’t tell me he was trying to avoid more criticism for his arrogant behavior… even if anyone was foolish enough to criticize ANYONE for visiting our troops, this would have been a good time for Obama to ignore opinions (and guidance) of others and do the right thing!
