Outstanding. Now he'll get a chance to hear his favorite sound in the world-the muslim call to prayer.

Pete 05-01-2012 13:27

Well
 
Well at least it's a nice break from all the vacation and campaigning trips he's been taking lately.

I mean, like it's a real Commander in Chief kinda' trip.

There will be a great foreign policy announcement to follow (which may or may not conveniently deflect from his SEALworship, which he's taking fire for).

Hell, President Bush got it. And if you're gonna hand-deliver something to the AO, feed something besides your ego and leave it to this crew.

And on our dime. Purely for the purpose of obama being the center of attention. This has nothing to do with the military. He got slapped a bit for parading the OBL take down.
