    I'm not sure of the proper venue to ask this question but here goess....



    Not long ago the President went to Fort Hood for a memorial to the fallen there and to give a speech. All very well and good. My question is: Did he, the President, stop by and visit the wounded and their family members in attendance with them while he and his wife were in the Fort Hood area? He might have but I don't, at this time, remember any stories about any such visit.



    If any of you have any info on this please reply.



    Thanks.
    You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich.
    You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.
    You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift.
    You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down.
    You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred.
    You cannot build character and courage by taking away people's initiative and independence.
    You cannot help people permanently by doing for them, what they could and should do for themselves.
