Yanny, you are assuming that President Bush will use the photos in his campaign. Whereas, if I remember the dates of the Clinton photo ops they were after his second election. Besides, Clinton would not use the photos in his campaign as Democrats see the US military as a Great Evil!
I, for one, do not recall then-President Clinton ever thanking the then current US military for their service, courage or the like(except, possibly during his SOU speeches.) President Bush, has repeatedly thanked and visited the various branches(and individual units) of the military. He was thanking sailors and airmen who were completing the longest naval deployment in the last 30 years.
Did you see the any footage of the reception they gave him? I saw some sour faces, but an overwhelming amount of cheering. A good # of sailors/airmen got into group pictures with President Bush. They appeared to be grateful for the positive suport that Bush gave them after 8 years of insults from the Clintons. Cruise missile wars, forbiddding saluting the president and banning the military from wearing their uniforms in the White House did not leave a good aftertaste for President/Mrs. Clinton with the military.
OH! Do not forget that the Democrats blocked the counting of overseas military ballots during the 2000 election. They have never been counted!
Anyone remember the trip the Clintons took to Africa with 3 USAF transport jets? They invited guests. Only a small # of which had any political or business interest in Africa. I believe the cost of that was over $500,000!
What grounds do those who were in office during the
Clinton era have to complain about Bush’s little trip?
Kennedy, Schumer, Clinton(yeah, her too!), Inouye, and
Byrd(now there’s a man who knows how to waste money!)
just to name a few.
What the F_alk!
Are you referring to a national policy of NZ or the Philippines
banning the entry of nuke ships or nuke weapons in port or in country?
Please, clarify your statement.
