I'm not a huge fan of Mccain either, don't get me wrong. I just think it's crappy he didn't see the wounded ones since he couldn't have his media go in with him. Every politician goes to see the wounded, it's a standard and they should.
Senator Obama is an official of the United States of America. He is currently pursuing the office of President of the United States. One of the roles Mr. Obama will assume if he wins the election in November is that of Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces. Senator Obama canceled a visit, in which he was supposed to spend time with our Wounded Warriors. Apparently, he must have had something more important to do.Or the part I wrote about him explaining why he didn't go? I guess you skipped over that? Why did he visit the wounded troops in Walter Reed and Afghanistan if he hates them so much? I guess on those cases he's exploiting the troops and in this case he doesn't care? It's going to be spinned against him no matter how he handles it. I don't believe for one second that Obama doesn't care about our troops and speaking of exploiting our troops, he's not the one making commercials on the situation.

Senator Obama's priorities were out of line. Cozying up to German Nationals should not be of more importance to him then showing how much he cares about the men and women who were seriously wounded fighting in the wars that Elected Officials sent them to fight.
This needs to be an issue. Does this make BHO unelectable? No. Should it? If he shows no remorse or further understanding of the slight, then yes.
