Well, now we know what it takes to get THE 1 off the golf course and take care of business. Looks like 173 deaths will do that to the usurper-in-chief.

Lets not be too fair about his visit...let's be clear about his visit to Alabama....he's 'popping by' on his way to the Space Shuttle Flight for the PR moment with the senator's wife who got shot...her husband is on that flight. So no I will not give him credit for a "pop" by....

Looks like Hussein’s handlers have told him to go to Alabama.

Let’s now see if he is received as the Messiah.

Anytime Obama plans anything that sounds like it's the right thing to do you have to look at what else is going on that is generally his real reason...the right thing just gets tacked on as an after thought. He will never do anything unless it stands to gain him a favorable light..I'm sure he'll be at the Senators side...but Alabama visit is an after thought...but it'll look good in the media he showed up. Can you imagine, with the clean-up they have, the disruption his security will cause in added difficulty for these people?

MSNBC is making a big ado about Obamas visit to the Space Shuttle.....and the Senators prescense there..with her nurse and so on. It’s once again all about them. More than a PR moment...it’ll be used to play on the emotions of the general public.

Which is why I actually object to these Presidential visits during a disaster recovery. The locals have enough to do! However, it was the left/MSM that turned such things into an issue when they berated Bush following Katrina.

I agree...the Captain of the ship needs to rely on his people to do what he’s positioned them for...and stay at the helmn of the ship....course this Captains always looking for the next PR photo shoot....or playing golf and visiting with his Hollywood friends.
