President Obama greets American troops at Camp Victory in Iraq on Tuesday.
This is a picture of Obama's Surprise visit to Iraq on his way home from a trip. The picture clearly slants this event as a good thing because it shows all of the emotion from the soldiers who all appear to be very happy to see their president. To exaggerate the emotional event, the picture shows president Obama embrassing a soldier as if to relate to him embrassing our country. We have talked about how Obama is like a father figure to this country, and this picture demonstrates this. Many people had their digitial cameras and could not believe what they were witnesses.

"Thanks to all of you. I am so honored," the president said to a shout-out of "love you," to which he answered "I love you back." He has continued to show his love to this country unlike any president before him. Although he does not support this war, he is continuously showing the troops that he really does care. "It makes me feel like he actually cares to where he'd come out here and talk to us," said Army Spec. Joshua Tisdale, 24, of Pekin, Ill., who's in his second tour and has been at Camp Liberty for three months.
Although USA today can be critically, this is a story in which they are Obama supporters.
