From the ABC article: But after hearing from the Pentagon, he said, "We decided, Senator Obama decided having made that decision he was far more willing to take the criticism from some political people or political opponents in a political atmosphere than to put our troops in the middle of our campaign back and forth."
After reading the ABC article (in full) and looking into the links in the huffington post article, it appears to me that Obama's campaign people were getting a bit of a run around from pentagon people. "No, you can't...yes, you can...well maybe if..." I think his decision not to visit and risk putting injured troops in the middle was a good decision.
Alpha, Locky, FUS, et al will use anything to push their agenda. The truth doesn't matter to them.
