Obama says McCain's America is not a not a nation of whiners.
He should tell that to his wife... Or, put it on a note on their bathroom mirror.

Obama pulls his white Grandmother, a typical white person, out from under the bus and gives her a plug. Gateway Pundit: Barack Obama: My Grandmother Is the "Typical White Person" Gateway Pundit: Barack Throws His Ailing Grandmother Under the Bus to Score Political Points

Again --- He says he's his brother's keeper (except George). Gateway Pundit: Obama's Long Lost Brother Lives In Kenyan Slum Hut

Obama is going to save America from our addiction to foreign oil... but won't drill.

Now is the time to end this addiction, and to understand that drilling is a stop-gap measure, not a long-term solution. Not even close.

Obama says he wants to debate McCain:

If John McCain wants to have a debate about who has the temperament, and judgment, to serve as the next Commander-in-Chief, that's a debate I'm ready to have.

...Except for those debates he's backed down from already.

Next the cut-n-runner preaches to McCain about national defense:

And today, as my call for a time frame to remove our troops from Iraq has been echoed by the Iraqi government and even the Bush Administration, even after we learned that Iraq has a $79 billion surplus while we're wallowing in deficits, John McCain stands alone in his stubborn refusal to end a misguided war.

...You don't defeat a terrorist network that operates in eighty countries by occupying Iraq. You don't protect Israel and deter Iran just by talking tough in Washington. You can't truly stand up for Georgia when you've strained our oldest alliances. If John McCain wants to follow George Bush with more tough talk and bad strategy, that is his choice – but it is not the change we need.

Obama should stay away from the foreign policy topic.

Next-- The Messiah speaks:

I will build new partnerships to defeat the threats of the 21st century: terrorism and nuclear proliferation; poverty and genocide; climate change and disease. And I will restore our moral standing, so that America is once again that last, best hope for all who are called to the cause of freedom, who long for lives of peace, and who yearn for a better future.

Amen.

This next line took a lot of gall after what he did to Stanley Kurtz this week: Michelle Malkin Next, the Obama thugs came for Stanley Kurtz

But what I will not do is suggest that the Senator takes his positions for political purposes. Because one of the things that we have to change in our politics is the idea that people cannot disagree without challenging each other's character and patriotism.

Obama mentions Martin Luther King.


The Black Republicans had a different view.

Next, Obama quotes a preacher.
Here's another he used to quote:

Obama certainly is a "new kind" of politician.

The joke always was: When do you know if a politician is lying? When his lips are moving.

With Uhh Uhh Bama, the "new kind of politician," the best thing to do when he starts moving his lips is refer to a reputable, non-partisan fact checking organization.

FactCheck.org: FactChecking Obama

It's true. You can kill a lot of threads with a link to Anenberg FactCheck.

Yup, gotta love Annenberg FactCheck...

McCain misfires as he attacks Obama's home purchase.

FactCheck.org: Born in the U.S.A.

Our conclusion: Obama was born in the U.S.A. just as he has always said.

In other words...both sides are full of shit.

Yep. You gotta love 'em. Might be one of the few places where you get an honest story.

They definately take no prisoner's from either side...they shoot straight from the hip.
