The Pentagon cleared the Obama plan to land at the base on either July 15 or 16, Gibbs said. The plane needed the clearance because of restrictions on landing nonmilitary aircraft there, he said.
But then on Wednesday, Gration told Obama aides that the Pentagon had informed him that the visit could be viewed as a campaign stop.
"They cited a regulation," Gibbs said of their point of contact, described as legislative affairs in the office of the secretary.
Asked why he believed the Pentagon would clear the visit, then raised questions about it, Gibbs declined to speculate: "I don't know what to make of it." http://www.politico.com/blogs/jonathanma rtin/0708/Obama_camp_says_Pentagon_nixed _troop_visit.html
They probably were planning on doing this all along, just waiting for Obama to show up in Germany without Senate staff. Remember earlier in this week when I wrote a diary about Condi Rice informing the State Department staff to be as unhelpful as possible to Obama.
The pebbles have voted and the avalanche has begun.
President-Elect "That One"
I posted an excerpt below about this, it certainly does make one suspicious, doesn't it?
I posted a link to the diary under that. Definitely suspicious.
