Politician Wants McCain Apology for "Fawning Germans" Remark

[Reba]

... We (Europeans) warmly greet Presidents from different countries which is show their respectful manner....

Obama is NOT a president.

 

[Liebling:-)))]

Because the Pentagon did NOT ask Obama not visit wounded troops. The Pentagon only said that he could visit as a Senator, not as a campaigner. Obama would have to leave all the cameras behind.

I feel those article is being twist...

FactCheck.org: Snubbing Wounded Troops?

Obama phones wounded soldiers - First Read - msnbc.com

Obama know for WEEKS before made his oversea trips that he is not allow to bring camera etc with him to visit wounded troops at hospitail. He DID visited wounded troops at hospitail WITHOUT camera, etc in Iraq and Agfanistion before visit to Germany.

Pentagon advised Obama to not visit wounded troops because it would be view as a campaign event. Obama cancelled out of his respect to wounded troops instead of use them to boost his vote.

McCain complained about Obama not going to Iraq and Afghanistan for weeks. So Obama went to Iraq and Afghanistan and then McCain complain about Obama being overseas???????? He can't have both ways... :roll:

Would Germans react the same way to a visit by President Bush? After all, he really is the President of the USA..

Yes Bush visited Germany many times. Don't you know that?

 

[Liebling:-)))]

Obama is NOT a president.

Yes we all know... So?

 

[Liebling:-)))]

The Pentagon did NOT say he couldn't visit them.

The Pentagon advised him to not go because they feel it's political view if he visit troops there. So Obama took their advise to cancel his visit plan but he contact troops via phone... check link in my last post. The Pentagon do not need to tell him to not bring camera, etc with him because Obama DID visited wounded troops without camera, etc in Iraq and Agfanistion before visit to Germany. We don't know why the Pentagon feel different about visit wounded troops in Germany than in Iraq and Afganistion.

Because his trip was paid for by campaign money - the Pentagon said, "No."
