I get the fact that security concerns are there, and no one likes the dog and pony show that goes with VIPs, the fact of the matter is VIP trips are handled every single day. Love him or hate him I honestly felt the President Bush actually cared about members of the military and would come visit or send high level folks and give the appearance of caring about what we were doing.

It goes a long way when your leader actually shows he cares for you, that is my point.

I don't have a problem with him not going. He'd just get in the way and I have to believe he'd be more resented over there than anything because if we know he hates the military you know they do too.

What pisses me off is how the media just gnashed their teeth and wailed about the need to see returning coffins when Bush was president but I guess the guys who have died since 2009 don't matter as much too them because they don't serve their purpose. That's why I hate your typical media a-hole as much as anybody.
