BAGHDAD (AP) — U.S. Embassy official says Sen. Barack Obama has arrived in Baghdad

That's it, so far. (With just one sentence, the AP can't show its bias.)

1. I'll pray for your safety, Senator!

[highplainsdem]

4. I'm praying, too.

8. Ditto

I'm eager for the middle east leg of this trip to be over.

9. He may be in more danger in the US.

He's got some pretty serious enemies right here, sadly.

I hate to say it, but he's not safe anywhere.

If we pray, we must pray wherever he is.

:patriot:

2. It's currently 8:34am Monday (AST) - Time in Baghdad, Iraq (I was wondering) nt

3. It's breaking news on cnn's and msnbc's websites, too -

This is NEWS -- and it's exciting! I don't recall such coverage when McCain went.

5. Did they have those tickers when McCain arrived in Baghdad?

McCain must be fuming right now. :rofl:

6. I don't even think they have the tickers when Bush arrives anywhere. nt

7. I'm glad he's taking this trip, but it still makes me nervous.

I think I'm actually more worried about the time he'll spend in Israel and the Palestinian territories than Iraq. I'm sure the areas he'll go in Iraq will be in complete lockdown, but I don't know about those in Israel and the West Bank.

10. My God, what a mess of concerned old women post here.

[Youphemism]

11. McCain and Geraldo are probably on Fox, diagramming his sleeping quarters right now. /nt

12. GOBAMA!

[vaberella]

13. Good Luck Obama, keep the Banana Boat close by and if you can get away with it

:kick: Maliki for me!!

K&R. :D
