    At the Pentagon, spokesman Bryan Whitman denied that the Pentagon had discouraged Obama from visiting the Landstuhl Regional Medical Center. Obama was "absolutely" told he could visit the troops at Landstuhl, said Whitman.

    However, the issue of his visit was dealt with by hospital officials and military officials in Europe familiar with Pentagon guidelines for visits to military installations by a political campaign.

    Whitman said Obama is "certainly welcome to visit a military medical facility any time he wants to," as long as that visit was consistent with that of a sitting senator.

    He added, "We do have certain policy guidelines for political campaigns and elections and what's appropriate and not appropriate in those situations. But, the Pentagon, to use your words, certainly did not tell the senator that he could not visit Landstuhl."

    Please use your head next time before you start babbling away at somthing you guys really know nothing about....

        So, why did McCain cancel his visits to the troops in April? Still haven't answered that question.

        McCain did in April what Obama just did. You didn't jump over your candidate then now did you. In fact your side defends McCain every time he vetos anything that would benefit vets and servicemen and women. Care to explain that? You can't. McCain is a party person pure and simple. His children are set for life.
