MSNBC's Buchanan falsely suggested Obama did not visit wounded troops, repeated smears of Obama's patriotism

SUMMARY: On Morning Joe, Pat Buchanan asserted that an ad by Sen. John McCain attacking Sen. Barack Obama for not visiting the U.S. military's Landstuhl Regional Medical Center in Germany played into "the sense that, you know, Barack is not one of us. He's just not a normal guy who would go see the wounded troops." In fact, Andrea Mitchell reported that, while in Iraq, Obama "visited a casualty unit in the Green Zone, without photographers, as part of the congressional delegation."
