Do you see the resemblance?

I got this from a soldier in Afghanistan.

Hello everyone,

As you know I am not a very political person. I just wanted to pass along that Senator Obama came to Bagram Afghanistan for about an hour on his visit to "The War Zone". I wanted to share with you what happened. He got off the plane and got into a bullet proof vehicle, got to the area to meet with the Major General (2 Star) who is the commander here at Bagram. As the Soldiers were lined up to shake his hand, he blew them off and didn't say a word as he went into the conference room to meet the General. As he finished, the vehicles took him to the ClamShell (pretty much a big top tent that military personnel can play basketball or work out in with weights) so he could take his publicity pictures playing basketball. He again shunned the opportunity to talk to Soldiers to thank them for their service. So really he was just here to make a showing for the American's back home that he is their candidate for President. I think that if you are going to make an effort to come all the way over here, you would thank those that are providing the freedom that they are providing for you. I swear we got more thanks from the NBA Basketball Players or the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders than from one of the Senators, who wants to be the President of the United States. I just don't understand how anyone would want him to be our Commander-and-Chief. It was almost that he was scared to be around those that provide the freedom for him and our great country, but the press reported this story in a completely different light than it happened. This is scary, people!!
If this is blunt and to the point, I am sorry, but I wanted you all to know what kind of person he really is. What you see in the news is all fake, but you will never hear this story in the news!!!!!

I wonder if the press will tell it??

I don't think he looks much like you. He looks more like Richard Lui.
Aside from the hair his shoulders are way bigger than yours would be if you were a cartoon. You'd be more like the slacker guy in that E-surance commercial.

Now that you mentioned it... yes, I do.

PS... love your laid-back sense of humor

Oh please. You are a heck of a lot prettier than I'll ever be.

I just received this from a friend of ours over in Afghanistan

I don't know each of your personal political convictions, and appologize if anyone finds this offensive. I thought it was important enough to share. This is Jeff's first hand view of Senator Obama.

If this is blunt and to the point I am sorry but I wanted you all to know what kind of caliber of person he really is.
What you see at ABC,NBC, CBS and CNN news is all fake. They are bias and on Obama's side.

How long can the Federal Government continue to run the money presses and add dollar x's and 0's to the banking system before the house of money cards does an "all fall down?"

The government has lost the battle, the people have lost their good faith in the government. Monetary bail outs are a joke. Let's give 50 Billion here and 1 trillion there and 500 billion there. It's amazing we can print money that fast.

Wow! How long before we become Zimbabwe?

No- the cartoon is better looking.

I think Mr. Opportunity looks like you or you look like him.... no you guys look alike.

sorry bob... the only resemblence i see of you is one of the photographs on the Post Office wall... "Wanted, New York Yankee Fan"

Ask congress how in the h-- they can bail out Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac when their CE0's are getting 14.2 and 14.5 million dollars in compensation. They have failed these companies. They have failed America and congress has again failed the little people.
How long are we going to sit and watch high dollar CEO's rip off the USA. You can't fix stupid and our congress is proving that.

Shame on that drinking club calling themselves hash house harriers! While living in Indoneasia, the Ex-pats would gather on a Sunday to run a hash through the jungles. Bugs, snakes, swamps – you had it all! And no drinking until the end. New hashers had to do the "down-down" consisting of sitting on a block of ice and chugging a beer to the down-down song. If the song finished before you did (and it always did), a beer was poured over your head. Now these are true harriers and we have the tee shirts to prove it!

Running drunk through city streets? Boo! Hiss! A bunch of pansies!

OMG Bob!! You ARE Mr. Opportunity. Some of us search our whole lives looking for our twin, and there you are, knocking!

I was gonna say the resemblance was uncanny...but actually you are much better looking than the cartoon. I am sure your wife would say the same thing. Although...might be a little entertaining watching a cartoon...

I wanted Bob to know that he looked a "hot mess" doing an Elvis Presley imitation. Don't quit your day job Bob! You'll go broke.

It's you dude. Someday you'll be glad you were "that guy". I'm 80 and it stinks!

Kids call it like they see it, Bob. I'm afraid your four-year-old is spot on. Now, the big question: do you drive a Honda and did you get it on clearance? Haha.

I think he does too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Absolutely!
but the real question is, do you now possess any super powers?

I think those nuts behind the viral email of the fake letter from CPT Jeffrey S. Porter should find a different outlet. If you think that garbage is for real then look at Snopes and you'll see it's not. They proved it's not only fake but found the guy who made it up.

All I know is that if you ever get a Saturday morning cartoon show, the Japanese animators now have a template to go with!

Why don't you run for president? You would win by a land slide! While those two idiots are beating themselves to death and spending all that money, you just pop up and take it. Come on every body, Bob Van
Dillen for president!

Bob,

You are way hotter than that cartoon. You are THE sexiest weatherman on TV. I was playing the challenge yesterday – I am the Mindfreak! I will be playing everyday until I win, only I want an autographed picture of you instead of Robin. You are the only reason I watch Morning Express!

Hey Bob, your a great looking young man! You remind me of someone I knew many years ago in New York...Long Island in fact! You could be his son but your last name is not Swanson...Best of luck to you and your son....

Hey Bob It's me again....I lived in Bayside, N.Y. for a few years, so did your look-a-like who was a Navy man Raymond an only child....Moved to Levittown, Long Island we were engaged but broke up...I think it was not to be.....Well here I am in Cincinnati, Ohio six children later, Four girls two boys and seven grandkids!!!! You are a ringer for Raymond!!!! Just had to give you a brief rundown.....Take care .... Patricia
