    I apologize if this is rude but isn't this a little beyond paranoia?

    Um...
    Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
    - -- Aristotle

    Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.

    Who gets to set the schedule for such a ridiculous trip.

    Are they going to visit Hollywood sets like Saddam's old statue, or do they get to visit the majority of Iraqis who want the US to get the fuck out of their coiuntry?

    This is nothing but politricks.
    AMERICAN HISTORY ITSELF IS A TESTAMENT TO THE STRENGTH AND RESILIENCE OF AFRICAN PEOPLE. WE, ALONG WITH THE COURGE AND SACRIFICES OF CONSCIOUS WHITE AMERICANS, LIKE VIOLA LIUZZO, EVERETT DIRKSEN, AND MANY OTHERS, HAVE FOUGHT AND DIED TOGETHER FOR OUR FREEDOM, AND FOR OUR SURVIVAL.

    In America, rights are are not determined by what is just, fair, equitable, honest, nor by what Jesus would do. Rights are determined ONLY by what you can DEMAND.

    I think it was a smart political move by McCain, because of course Obama's people said no. Say's a lot about the guy who wants to be Commander in Chief.

    Yeah some Commander and Chief, can't even take a trip to the troops you'll soon command, see the situation on the ground for yourself, before deciding how to proceed.
