Country:  | He has made so many visits though and to be honest the troops dont even care any more. We did not care when we there. It was like "Oh hes here."

Country: | yes but you can bet some are glad he is there if not just that it appears he cares......Clinton never would of done this nor Gore had he been pres. Can U imagine if Hillary was there, she'd get egg'd in a sec.
guess I am getting old and tired of this long drawn-out process, been there before where politics told us what we could do and not do and the same applies now and most probably for the future | |
