7. Security demands that they seldom do that.
I'm guessing Secret Service feels safe enough at a US Army base.

I wish we could see more of Joe Biden, he was always one of my favorites and I liked the way he introduced Obama by refering to him as "the man I serve with" instead of under. I actually think that's pretty classy and all Joe.

15. It's pretty clear they both admire each other a tremendous amount. Biden's comments were awesome.

10. I always think of that vid when Joe was a candidate, where he was
speaking to medical personnel. It ALWAYS gave me chills and brought tears to my eyes, no matter how.many times I watched it. Joe just CARES SO MUCH about our military. I know O does, too.

17. If Joe called Healthcare reform a BFD, I wonder what he calls killing OBL.
A GBFD?

6. Watching this, I can't help but wonder how many of these soldiers
are like my nephew who went to Afghanistan an Obama supporter and came home watching Faux news.
His facebook status is forever quoting what he heard on faux dissing Obama. Makes me crazy.

12. I missed most of it, but he got huge props at the end; I'd say at
least some of those soldiers like him. :D

8. From someone in another online chat watching this live .....
tellytubbisavalas: I have never seen so many Obama stickers on cars than I see in Killeen and Ft. Hood

tellytubbisavalas: I go there because my father in law is ex military and I go with them when I'm there to the commissary and all that

:patriot:

11. My parents had an OBAMA '08 bumper sticker on their car...
My dad is a member of the 101st Airborne, served in Vietnam. He passed in November, but was always going up to the VA in his car with the sticker on the back window. Lots of former veterans always gave him thumbs ups!

21. Notice the way he just rattled off all the names, divisions, wives, personnel, and groups?
I couldn't have done that.
