Obama cancels visit to wounded troops

The Obama world tour that’s been recieving so much media attention in the past week or so, has hit it’s first real glitch, as a visit to wounded troops at Landstuhl Regional Medical Center in Germany was cancelled.  At first the reason for the cancellation was unclear with the Obama camp saying it had something to do with the trip being “inappropriate” as it was funded by the campaign and it would’ve been politicized by the Pentagon.  But just today the military came forward to state that there had been restrictions placed on Obama and possethat only Obama and his travelling buddies from the Senate could enter the facility.  No aides, no press.  So basically, without the ability to play the trip up to the media, the whole thing was scrapped, making Obama’s sincerity seem a little questionable.  But hey, politicians.  When is their sincerity ever not in question?
