I asked how he is doing that. Because they're in the same state? That makes no sense.

How does that not make sense?

He boarded AF1 headed to a Democratic fund raiser in the same state just a few hundred miles away immediately after burying 4 of our military troops.

Ticket prices are going from 16K-64K per head. Makes me sick to my stomach.

Maybe you shouldn't buy one?

You are aware that both parties have fundraisers.

To think Obama doesn't care speaks volumes about some of you. I thought it was wonderful that George HW Bush meet him at the airport. Tragedies like this should bring everyone together and not be cynical.

Why is that so wonderful?

Shows 41 is a respectable man welcoming the current president to his home town.

Don't you imagine that the fundraiser has been planned for some time now?? So what is the big deal?
