Here are the rules.
Here’s your prize for this one: a coffee mug from the RedState Store.
There is no starting picture here.
Here is the topic:
Barack Obama went to Germany and said to the German people he was not speaking as a candidate for office, but as a citizen of the world.
He then cancelled a trip to visit wounded soldiers at Landstuhl in favor of a shopping trip in Berlin. His excuse is that, contrary to what he told the press and public, he really was on a political trip and did not want to see the wounded troops as a result. Never mind that he mixed and mingled with the troops in Afghanistan and Iraq.
Back during Katrina, the left photoshopped Bush playing guitar while New Orleans flooded and the victims cried.
Create a picture emphasizing Obama ditching the troops in favor of shopping in Berlin.
Put the picture in the comments (host it at Flickr or somewhere and show it in the comments). Remember in the comments it should be no more than 425 px wide.

Cowboy (Diary) Thursday, July 24th at 10:38PM EST (link)In the movie Pure Country the star (George Strait)is asked why he is burnt out and doesn’t want to perform any more.
His answer is that he feels like the dancing chicken that he saw at the county fair when he was a boy.
Turns out that the chicken was standing on a hot plate and would dance when the carnival man would turn up the heat.
I am low tech but would love to see someone put Obama in a chicken suit and show his handlers and puppet masters standing behind the curtain turning up the heat.
Where is absentee? Wasn't this his gig? nt

deetoo Friday, July 25th at 9:50AM EST (link)I’ve jumped on many of the RS action items that land in my mailbox, but this story seems kind of fishy.
I’m not buying the “he decided to ditch the soldiers and go shopping” thing.
Why not?

(Backup for Hayes’s quote here.)
Keeping with the theme, remember George Washington said, “With the utmost sincerity, I do not think myself equal to the Command I [am] honored with,” when he was apppointed commander-in-chief.
Ok, so not every president can be a war hero, but for more on 2008 as it relates to Eisenhower-Stevenson 1952, and for why Barack is not like Andrew Jackson, check out Commodore Perry.

miguel Friday, July 25th at 3:10PM EST (link)There’s nothing Barack loves more than mugging for the camera, so this story seems weird. TPM says it was the pentagon that told him he couldn’t go {with his campaign staff. Naughty, naughty – Moe Lane} .
Gotta say, miguel, I'm disappointed.
Moe Lane (Diary) Friday, July 25th at 3:31PM EST (link)When I let you survive after your last mobying attempt, it was because I thought that you had potential. Alas, not to be. But rejoice! You got to try to defend a man who refused to visit wounded soldiers without his own entourage – and then you got to try to lie that the military said that he couldn’t!
Preen. Preen.

backwoodspundit Saturday, July 26th at 11:47AM EST (link)Nice work. This one looks real, and I love the fact that Obama went shopping at Crate & Barrel and Old Navy, and the other guy at the Disney Store. Hilarious!
Nice job adding a German flag lapel pin to Obama’s suit, since we know he won’t wear an American one.
