Apparently sourgrapes don’t “stop at the water’s edge”:
The White House tells us it is a coincidence that POTUS is in Afghanistan on anniversary of OBL death. Billy “White Shoes” Johnson? #Obama

Longtime Republican Sen. Jim Inhofe of Oklahoma criticized President Barack Obama over the president’s surprise trip to Afghanistan Tuesday, describing the visit as “campaign related” and an “attempt to shore up his national security credentials.”
“We’ve seen recently that President Obama has visited college campuses in an attempt to win back the support of that age group since he has lost it over the last three years,” Inhofe said in a statement. “Similarly, this trip to Afghanistan is an attempt to shore up his national security credentials, because he has spent the past three years gutting our military.”
