The candidate tells reporters on his campaign bus he disagrees with his communications director, Jill Hazelbaker, that Obama’s coming overseas trip is merely a “giant photo opportunity” and “campaign rally.”

Says he will speak with Hazelbaker about her talking points, also urges Obama to speak with the troops while in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Hazelbaker on Fox News: “Let’s drop the pretense that this is a fact-finding trip and call it what it is: the first-of-its-kind campaign rally overseas.” Watch video. --- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fP5-_w9AjxM&eurl
