DOVER, DEL. -- Earlier this year President Obama lifted the 18-year ban on media coverage of the return of fallen soldiers to Dover, a ban critics said hid the costs of war from the American people. Thursday morning President Obama -- who is weighing new strategy in Afghanistan -- saw those costs up close.

Disgusting &^%$#! He is in trouble and he is using this as a photo op.
Where were the pictures of Obama Golfing over the weekend when these soldiers died?
Nice photo op hussein.
Obama is an Evil Creep!
Methinks this is the first of many shots showing caskets coming back from Afghanistan.
The cynic in me says this is a return to the Lefty Vietnam Playbook when the daily parade of caskets on TV drove rioting in the streets to cut and run. It’s Obama’s way of stirring the pot to justify a pullout from Afghanistan.
Using DEAD Soldiers for his Photo Op is DISGUSTING!!!!!!
Isn’t it ‘interesting’ that Obama positioned himself so that his picture could be taken over the ‘holy grail’ of the left and the media; the flagged drapped coffins of our heros.They have been wanting to take those ‘shots’ for years and President Bush would not allow it. Obama gets in..lifts the ban and walla....’Photo Op”.
Obama is a pathetic poseur!
The only transparency in this administration is how FAKE it is.
Everything else, (like the truth, f’instance ) runs into a brickwall.
Never in my entire life have I felt absolute disgust and anger towards a sitting president than I do now.
(And I lived thru Nixon and Carter!!)
The man has no sense of honor, except amongst his thieving friends and fellow travelers.
You’re right, there isn’t much hope at all with him but I was born an eternal optimist I guess. I believe anyone is capable of seeing the light eventually...
In 2006 & 2007, Obama was among the democrats who played the enemy-encouraging “body count game” with the media. Knowing that the enemy was relying specifically on wearing out the American public, Osama’s stated strategy, these seditionists gave high publicity to every single battlefield casualty, and the intent was not honorable....they were using it to return to power, whether it aided al qaeda (intentionally) or not.
Now the SOB is going to treat our dead like honored heroes!!!??
I despise them. They are sold out to their leftist ideology, and any honoring of the dead is now purely for the purpose of ongoing manipulation of the American electorate.
True conservatives and all real Freepers will call them what they are: anti-American power-hungry opportunists.
Despise, despise, despise. How dare they manipulate the courage of our honored dead “for a bowl of public relations pottage.”
President Obama, how are your new ROE working for our Troopers? Do you now know how to define Victory in A-stan? Do you have any idea what that means from a Military Point of View? Are you still uncomfortable with the word “Victory”? Come on MSM, do your job for Pete's Sake.
“A senior White House official tells ABC News that President Obama has wanted to do this ever since the policy of media coverage of the return of fallen troops was changed earlier this year, but he wanted to do so “in a way that caused the least amount of disruption.”
This just proves it was nothing but a photo-op! Obama could have gone before the ‘media ban was lifted’ at anytime..but he wanted to make sure the media got the shot.
PATHETIC!!
What a disgusting , cynical charade! If he cared one bit about those men he’d have sent the extra troops General McChrystal has been asking for 3 months ago.

Absolutely true. 0bozo is an attention whore plain & simple. What a phony bastard!!! Spare us the phony somber grief, you commie pig bastard!!!! 0bozo is a lying, thieving, despicable POS bastard!!! What a tragedy for our country to go through. I hope the 52% who vote for this commie pig will someday & somehow repent & make restitution for their gross stupidity, including my dumb ass brother & even dumber ass sister-in-law.
And he just happened to go with his photogs, in the middle of the night, a week before an election, to pay respects.... and get his picture taken with dead soldiers.
