Obama: McCain should stop questioning character
Democrat Barack Obama challenged his Republican opponent John McCain on Tuesday to stop questioning his "character and patriotism."Another thing he declares off-limits, like his membership in a black liberation theology hate-whitey church, his association with terrorists, his lack of a resume and substance, his votes as a Ill. State Senator, his bus-crunching smackdowns of inconvenient associates and family members, his wife's hate-spewing and America-despising comments.... Addressing the Veterans of Foreign Wars convention, Obama reaffirmed his early opposition to the U.S. invasion of Iraq and said the so-called "surge" strategy of sending 30,000 additional troops to Iraq last year had not produced the political reconciliation necessary to achieve lasting peace in the country. McCain supported the Iraq invasion and was an early champion of the surge. What do you believe? Me or your lying eyes, dammit! "These are the judgments I've made and the policies that we have to debate, because we do have differences in this election," Obama said. "One of the things that we have to change in this country is the idea that people can't disagree without challenging each other's character and patriotism. I have never suggested that Sen. McCain picks his positions on national security based on politics or personal ambition. I have not suggested it because I believe that he genuinely wants to serve America's national interest. Now, it's time for him to acknowledge that I want to do the same. bullshit. BHO never took a gamble, going against the MSM's spin. "Let me be clear: I will let no one question my love of this country," Obama said to applause. because the truth hurts, personally, and in the polls, beyotch! Posted by: Frank G 2008-08-19 |
