Barack Obama Obama's Secret Visit to Afghanistan on Anniversary of Bin Laden's Death?

[Tyler_Durden]

It was just announced on CNN as breaking news. Why would Obama travel there on the anniversary of Bin Laden's death? No security concerns?

This doesn't pass the smell test at all......something's up.

Apparently it's to sign some security agreement with Karzai.

election mode... going to afghanistan and pretending he cares about the troops and getting them home.

i read the other day that USA is responsible for the defense of afghanistan for 10 years regardless or not we are there or not.

Campaign stop. Nothing more.

Let me get this straight. He's celebrating the fact we are responsible for their security!?

God, this is like when my high school clapped during the assembly they announced the decision to ban incandescent lightbulbs. Pure mob mentality to anyone who applauds this!

I'll say this much, the neo-cons have been bashing Obama for years about "apologizing for America" this is just Obama's way of sticking it to them, and naturally the neo-cons are complaining about it.

SEAL Teams everywhere are very upset with this man.

I feel bad for them in afghanistan. Every time a president or high ranking general comes you end up doing patrols for over 36hrs straight. I hated it when freaking bush came to Iraq. Though it was funny to find out about the sandal thing when we finished.

With all the campaign cash that Obama has on hand, he is using taxpayer money to campaign? Obama should pay for the entire cost of this photo op from his own campaign money!
