PROPAGANDA ALERT

There's a debunked email circulating the internet. This is what it says:

Hello everyone,

As you know I am not a very
political person. I just wanted to pass along that Senator Obama came to
Bagram Afghanistan for about an hour on his visit to "The War Zone". I
wanted to share with you what happened:

He got off the plane and got into a bullet proof
vehicle, got to the area to meet with the Major General (2 Star) who is
the commander here at Bagram. As the Soldiers where lined up to shake
his hand he blew them off and didn't say a word as he went into the
conference room to meet the General. As he finished, the vehicles took
him to the ClamShell (pretty much a big top tent that military personnel
can play basketball or work out in with weights) so he could take his
publicity pictures playing basketball. He again shunned the opportunity
to talk to Soldiers to thank them for their service.

So really he was just here to make a showing for the
American's back home that he is their candidate for President. I think
that if you are going to make an effort to come all the way over here
you would thank those that are providing the freedom that they are
providing for you. I swear we got more thanks from the NBA Basketball
Players or the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders than from one of the Senators,
who wants to be the President of the United States.

I just don't understand how anyone would want him to be
our Commander-in-Chief. It was almost that he was scared to be around
those that provide the freedom for him and our great country.

If this is blunt and to the point I am sorry but I
wanted you all to know what kind of caliber of person he really is. What
you see in the news is all fake.


In service,
CPT Jeffrey S. Porter

They can't run on the issues or the facts so they make this stuff up. It's disturbing! It's disgusting! It's despicable!
