He did his campaign photo op at a US military base there. It was the worst king of pandering, and a horrible misuse of his position of authority with the troops, but it isn't like going to the floor of a foreign parliament and trying to score political "gottcha" points during a formal speech made, not as a candidate or individual, but as the US President formally representing our country. They are both wrong, but there is a difference in the wrongness. The first one is more of an internal US issue while the second is a betrayal of the entire country while serving as our representative to a foreign nation. Iraq in 2004 was under US occupation.
