WORD-UP:
Do Not Use Barack Obama's Visit To Europe To Gain Unwarranted Political Points!
* It was Senator Barack Obama who was instrumental in getting the GI Bill amended to accommodate for a three year stint, that would qualify any veteran for college assisted benefits, when he or she leaves the military.
* It was Senator Barack Obama who saw that the troops in Afghanistan were inadequate in numbers or strength, and called for the increase of more fighting men on the ground in Afghanistan. Long before John McCain realized it's importance.
* It was Senator Barack Obama who called for the withdrawal of all US combat forces in Iraq within sixteen months, via two brigades per month, over two years.
* And it was Senator Barack Obama who we all saw on television visiting with US troops in Kuwait, Iraq & Afghanistan.
* Finally, it was the Senator's view that visiting US troops in Germany, would be perceived as using that visit to promote his campaign for president.
* He felt that it would not be prudent at this moment to visit there, because of the very same criticisms that are being leveled against him currently by John McCain and others, who are SORE and ENVIOUS of Barack Obama's successes during these visits overseas.
