Meanwhile Sonny is making yet another trip-- while Rome burns.

I come from a military family wiht a long list of service. However I disagree with Sonny taking a trip to Iraq and Afghanistan...at the taxpayers expense. We have so many people here hurting that this was just plain dumb....it is the CinC responsibility Barack Obama to be over there....and supporting our troops. The governor is required to delegate and control his state....thats why we elected him. I can't remember the last time I have seen the Governor on TV touting anything good. NCR was a joke....a little dvd place for about 8 bucks an hour was a joke....all the predatory lending was a joke....all the bank failures we have is a joke.......the jokes on us the voters and we were sold a bill of goods. I want a refund on my vote!!! JOHN OXENDINE FOR GOVERNOR!!! Now that is a man willing to get the job done...and I think he will. He don't play....Sonny does!

Coming from a fellow Soldier (who is deploying to Afghaninstan in 8 weeks) I think its great that the Governor is supporting the National Guard troops in Iraq...but what about he goes during July when its hot as hell and there arent any holidays to eat?
