You can bet he brought a full contingent of MSM reporters to insure that he gets full coverage. What a phoney!

I really snicker at the implied “secrecy” of this visit...

Under the cover of darkness???

What a [expletive deleted]!!!

Especially with the entourage he brought with him???

[vox_freedom]

Two years since he last visited there and I’ll bet a dollar to a donut he won’t be back during his remaining time as POTUS.

He is taking a “Defeat Lap”.

It’s a new concept

Pure opportunistic photo-op by Clown Prince Nobama. How many suck veterans could have been treated for the cost of this buffoon’s latest global jaunt on AF1? In a sense, Clown Prince nobama is killing more Veterans on Memorial day.

This visit is supposed to signal to all of us that this president really does love the military, and that this country is governed by a very patriotic administration. At some point, we may even see a picture of tears streaming down his face...

[NonValueAdded]

A “campaign” response to a pressing problem again ... and again ... and again.

[caveat emptor]

During a visit scheduled to last just a few hours,

He should have time for a few holes of golf at the Bagram Golf course, though the need for armored golf carts might put him off.

I applaud entertainers who go there, no matter who the Prez is.

[BerryDingle]

This is the same embarrassing skidmark that thinks Marines are for holding umbrellas and Ambassadors are to be killed.

[Cowboy Bob]

Maybe Afghanistan will offer him asylum?

[Moorings]

Campaign event to minimize the VA hospitals’ scandal fallout.

I’m sure the men are real glad to see this puke.

Couldn’t agree more. I feel sorry for those guys, they, I’m sure were commanded to go. At least I can turn my TV off, they were most definitely a captive audience.

I had hoped that they would keep him over there, but no such luck.....even they don’t want him. All I can say is that people of the US wanted change, and they sure got it.
