Working here at ISAF HQ, I get a front row seat for politicians wanting a little face time with commanding officer and the troops. Last week, Arizona Senator John McCain was here for a "grip and grin"and today it was Senator Jon Kerry's turn. Last week, President Bush flew over our headquarters on his way from the Presidential Palace to Bagram Air Force Base. If you look real hard through the haze, you can see his helicopter. He maintained a high enough altitude so that he was clearly out of range for any thrown shoes.
