Brian,

Let me get this straight. You say McCain is immoral for getting a divorce yet you whack job libs stand around and cheer when babies are murdered from abortions.

BRIAN!

That was your kindergarten teacher telling you it’s time for a nappy.

“He needs to do it because if you don’t fight back voters think you won’t fight for them,” said Mary Anne Marsh. “Therefore you have to do it to win their support. The benefit outweighs the cost.”

Was Mary Anne the one that advised Obama to “implicate racism” against McCain just a few short weeks ago as well?

Did that not lose him about 10 percentage points in one week?

The Cross in the Dirt issue is complex.

McCain told a story in 1999 about how when he was in capitivity in Vietnam on Christmas day, a soldier loosened his restraining ropes and drew a cross on the dirt floor of his cell with his boot, then erased it. McCain said this was a defining moment in his faith, as it showed him that two Christians could connect no matter their circumstances.

This is near identical to a story accredited to a Russian author named Solzhenitsyn in which he’s serving in a gulag in Siberia I think. He decides life isn’t worth living, so he leaves his labor line and walks over to a beach and sits down in the sand. He knows a guard will come over and shoot him in a head, and he’s fine with it. He hears the footsteps and braces himself. But its another prisoner, who draws a cross in the sand and walks away without saying a word. This renewed his faith in God and he found the willpower to survive through the rest of his imprisonment.

McCain is a huge fan of Solzhenitsyn:

“In McCain’s 2007 book Hard Call: Great Decisions and the Extraordinary People Who Made Them McCain devotes an entire chapter to Solzhenitsyn and his experiences as recounted in The Gulag Archipelago.”

Remember where I said McCain hadn’t talked about it until 1999? This is important, because he gave detailed accounts of his capitivity in both 1973 and 1995. In fact, the 1995 interview was about being a POW during Christmas. So it’s a little weird that he would leave such an important detail out. Especially one that would mirror an experience had by an author he admired.

‘McCain does not know what he is up against’…..O.K. to my mind that about sums up and does ‘in’ the Obama Campaign. Wouldn’t you rather have your candidate say ‘who’ McCain is up against instead of ‘What’ ?…..What this means to me is, that Obama is admitting he is a ‘fabricated’ ‘thing’ out before the public ‘built’ by a huge liberal, leftist , Marketing machine rather than a ‘true’, ’sincere’ ‘human candidate’. The reason he lost 9 points in a week in this recent ‘landslide’, is that millions of ‘human voters’, are leaning away from the ‘what’, and toward being ‘against’ the side of a great ‘human’ American and patriot, and not a ‘What’. It’s over folks.

You’re all correct. We really need a president with strong morals like John McCain (cheated on his first wife). A leader who knows the ways of the world (no idea how to use a computer). A leader who can restore America as the leader and protector of the free world (Most other developed nations are scared to death of the idea that another Republican will be in power in America). Someone who can turn our economy around (Mccain has admitted he has very little knowledge of economics). Someone who is eloquent and well liked overseas.

Obama has really been looking bad ever since his “Citizen of the World” speech in Berlin. Coming out now with the “tuff” talk after getting his butt kicked at the Saddleback Showdown, only makes him look that much more foolish. Comes across like a kid that got a bloody nose during recess and now wants to claim the other guy threw sand in his eyes.

Hillary said it best when she summarized the breath of Obama’s experience. He gave a pretty good speech in 2004, but there is not much else on his resume.

With O’bama’s experience, or should I say lack of it, I think the Dems need to spend their time at the convention convincing us independents that he capable of doing the job. I need to hear WHAT HE’S GOING TO DO, AND HOW HE’S GOING TO DO IT. If they’re going to spend their time attacking McCain, I don’t have to watch a convention for that. Just read the newspapers and watch anyone of O’bama’s speeches.

What a sweet plan by Obama, it is two fold. One he has people around him say nasty things about McCain. He then would appear to be the good guy by denouncing the people who made the comments. He himself makes comments that makes McCain look racist so McCain would fire back that he is using the race card. Now Obama closes the trap by saying that is not what he meant and McCain is cynical. The message that Obama wants to get out about McCain is delivered. Obama looks good denouncing the people that said it and makes McCain look bad by Obama calling him cynical because he is reading what he has said the wrong way. This make Obama look like the victim. Good plan just don’t be fooled by it. Obama is going to say whatever it takes to win and after he will, he will show his true intent which will leave people saying he didn’t say he would or wouldn’t do that. I don’t care that Obama does not look like George Washington or his name sounds like a terrorist. I vote for the Man and this man is trying to con us and should not win this election!

Obama looks like he is doing a set at a comedy club. I guess it’s his attempt to talk down to the less intelligent people that support him. I saw one of Obama’s supporters on Hanity’s America and he did not tear Sean up like Obama said he would. Can you believe he sent someone to go after Hanity and not go on the show himself? McCain has been on the show many times with Colmes so don’t go there. McCain never called out Colmes like Obama has Sean and Sean has invited Obama to go on any of his shows. He will give him a list of questions just so Obama will know what’s coming and Obama send in a stunt double. So who is more Hollywood?
