Not the point...
I don't really care if the president occasionally plays golf, or video games, or tiddlywinks in his spare time... The issue was that he made up a fake story to 'prove' his concern for the troops that he is getting maimed and killed.
Even if his story had been true it would have been disgusting in its shallowness, but since it turned out to be a lie it is truly despicable- evidence that he not only doesn't really give a damn about the troops, but is willing to exploit the death of a soldier to make up a story that portrays himself as a caring concerned president.
THAT is what disgusts me- and it should disgust the "patriotic" right wingers here too, but we hear not a peep...
