Obama tells McCain to lay off

McBush doesn't even have the honor to come out & say what he means --- He does it by dishonorable cowardly insinuations accusing Obama of treason & lack of patriotism

Is this the kind of "Decider" you want ???? ------ More destruction to our national security & the basic fabric of our democracy & honor ???? ----- Not Me

Why is McCain still harping on the "surge" anyway? It is over and America is not thinking about that. We are concerned about our own country going to hell in a hand basket. I think that McCain is stuck in a time warp.

Lmhybrid,,,, McCain is just another Bush -- From all his policies down to his Bush/Cheney/Rove campaign staff.

His economic chief who led us into the financial & mortgage meltdown is married to an Enron exec

His foreign policy chief is a paid lobiest, working for a foreign country

Yesterday's fund raiser for McCain was run by Ralph Reed the partner of Jack Abermoff

On & on it goes, you want more ???

Had his Mother CHOSEN to abort him we wouldn't be having this problem

John Sidney McCain is the biggest cheat. He cheats on his wife, he cheats in the "cone of silence". And he thinks just because he was a POW (who let out our classified secrets after just two days of beating) he can get away with cheating. Now, he's trying to cheat the people of the USA. Sidney, listen up, you can cheat your wife, your pastor but not the common folk.

Yes---I know....we republicans ---we're just so as obama so eloquently put it the other day mean---some tough guy for commander in chief---nervous about us meany little republicans.

"I will follow Ossama Bin Laden through the Gates of Hell" McBush says, "I will catch him, I know how" ---- Yet his own actions in the War on Terror prove otherwise ------- Yes, McCain is just another Bush

Only McCain is a 25 year part of the problem with inefective government. & much the cause --- His legislations has loopholes so big you can drive a truck through.

I think it's obvious that an individual's character and integrity are of utmost importance in consideration of a candidate for the highest office. It's also a given that a candidate is not going to willingly offer up their own character flaws for people's consideration. Therefore, it is up to their opponents to point out such flaws. While such characterizations may be painful and are often deemed as dirty politics, they are necessary in order for people to get a complete representation of a candidate. This is a necessary part of the process.

When challenged, the candidate has a duty to address the claim if he does not agree with it. If the claim is false, it gives the candidate an opportunity to point out the opponent's lack of due diligence in researching the issue. If the claim is true, it gives the candidate an opportunity to tell Americans why they should overlook that weakness.

In this world, we don't get to choose our enemies, but how we deal with them is telling of our character. If Obama is the leader he is purported to be by many of his supporters, he'll recognize the situation for what it is, and use McCain's attacks to his own advantage. If he can't figure out how to do that, he may not be such a fantastic leader after all.

How are you a war hero after napalming thousands of innocent people, and then be blown out the sky by the north Vietnamese and lay ed up in the hanaway Hilton for six and a half years, and call yourself a hero...hero you are not! Survivor, yes...hero, NO!

Wow. I guess the politics of hope and change have given way to the same old Democrats and Republicans.

Interested to hear from any Obama supporters: If character is not essential to determining the candidate and only their stand on policy and issues are relevant, then what is the difference between Obama and Hillary?

Makes sense Barack Hussein Obama doesn't want to talk about CHARACTER:

Here's video of Obama's father figure, mentor, pastor and 20-yr friend Reverend Jeremiah Wright. The most influential man in the Junior Senator's life:

It makes perfect sense "CHARACTER" and "AMERICANISM" is a four letter word to the Junior Senator ...

I watched the Warren forum and knew even before it was over that it was rigged...then it came out that McCain was not even there yet so he could have been getting all kinds of clues from his aides...when he got there I'm sure there were people who met him.. and could have given him written prepared answers he had time to go over....I was so sure it was rigged that it was a satisfaction to me to find out that he lied when he said"I was listening thru the door" and when Warren said he was enclosed in "cone of silence"...both of them were lying...he even had answers ready before the questions were finished...I also saw the Larry King interview of Warren where Warren admitted that the "toss of the coin" was between he and his staff...the candidates did not even participate in the coin toss to see who went first !!
That is such B.S. ...Warren could easily say that here was a coin toss..how do we know?? Also warren says McCain could not have cheated because the Secret Service would "have reported it' ...give me a break...that is not their job...reported it to who?...they don't work for Warren..they work for the govt. and by extension the Senator...and Warren even said that he gave Obama a "clue" to a question that he could not give McCain since he hadn't arrived yet...well, if he knew he hadn't arrived yet, how could he tell us that he was in a cone of silence. All of these people who say he is too honorable to cheat...give me a break...if he cheated on his wife for years...he could cheat at anything !! He can't be trusted...he is too hotheaded...he is a warmonger...he is too old...and he CHEATS !!!

Billy, you are right that the biggest challenge facing whoever wins this election is to unify the Nation. If we can unite as a Nation, we will progress and accomplish something. If we remain divided, we are destined to stagnate fester and rot in our own arrogance. The question is which candidate has the ability to quit blaming the other side, and unite our Nation?

Here's a real litmus test of which candidate, or which party for that matter, really wants to change our national economy for the best. Eliminate all personal and small business federal income tax. Replace that tax with a national sales tax.

DrWhoo,,,, I hope you didn't get your doctorate from youtube ---- 30 minutes with a cheap editing program will get millions of viewers in minutes

Second test for foreign policy: Promote the most comprehensive global free trade program that encompasses all nations that want to participate.

I am proud to support Obama.

Charles P,

I would not wish that kind of survivorship on anyone. McCain's POW experience is a survivor's story and his time in captivity was brutal. I do not support his support of America's evidently unlearned lessons from that time, but I do respect his resiliency.

I can't vote for 100 more years (possibly) in Iraq. And I don't see how calling somebody on their personal character attacks is being a cry baby. John Kerry did not address the old bait and switch swift boat tactics author Jim Corsi, Carl Rove and G. Bush used in the last election and it cost him the election.

I am not better off than I was 4 or 8 years ago and while some may say they are, one thing is true for all of us - the privacy and freedoms U.S. citizens rightly held high before the rest of the world in 2000 and before, no longer exist.

McCain's character ??? Calling himself a "Federalist" & Reagan like --- Ronald Reagan was a strong proponent of States Rights, not a federalist --- The Federalist Party died in 1824

You know what is funny about all of this obama and mccain foolishness. People will go out of their way to get a waiter or waitress fired for bringing them the wrong item on a menu. Using words like "Can I speak to your manager", and the person is just doing their jobs the for barley livable wages. But politicians who are supposed to be intelligent people make mistakes that effect millions, and we the General public would find excuses for them. And love their mistakes. We would never say "Can I speak to your manager" Oh I forgot we the people are the managers. But, the have us believe that they are doing us a favor. Unless you wake up and see that the only favor Politicians do is for themselves we would always loose the fight the battle the war. Examples McCain =Warmongering Bastard. Obama =Pandering fool. McCain= Christian Right (Note:- Why is it the Christian right was behind slavery, Oppression, apartheid, Segregation, Warmongering, Invasions and Occupations. and Kill anything that looks and sound different I guess they are doing god's work) Obama= Scared of his own shadow, hypocritical, Liberal (Note:- Scared to exclude, sometimes inclusion could be a bad thing, Have to know sometimes you can solve a problem with intellect sometimes you might have to just destroy it caveman style) All what I listed they do to distract us from what are their true goals. The raping of the globe for their protection and Prosperity

McCain appears to be very confused about a lot of things.

Billy,,, OK look at foriegn policy

McCain's Bush foreign policy resulted in the loss of foreign security assets in Africa & other countries it took decades to build -- His foreign policy chief is a lobbiest paid by a foreign country

His foreign policy turned our nation into what we fought against in all other wars. Devistating to our America's national security

"Let me be clear: I will let no one question my love of this country,"

Let me be the first then -- Mr. Obama I question your love for this country. Now try and stop me you pompous idiot.

You wouldn't know love of country if it sat down beside you.

Billy,,,, Listen to Old McCain today --- A return to the Cold War,, with the same rhetoric we heard during the Cold War & the Bay of Pigs
