| I seem to recall that Nixon and Ford went to Vietnam...didn't seem to do anything much to improve their ratings. "Dubya's" daddy even made a trip out to the Gulf War. So it sure isn't the first time it was done.
Can't you just see the headlines in Al-Jazeera today? "George Bush forced to sneak into Iraq under cover of darkness with the windows covered up.....didn't even tell Mrs. Bush he was going?"
Not knocking what he did...I think it's great that the Commander in Chief supports his troops. Heck, he traveled something like 30 hours? for a 4 hour dinner break. But if it was done for ratings, then I think it will prove to be a flop. |
