If Obama truly was sincere about visiting the wounded troops, all he had to do was to go and visit them minus his cast of media characters and parade gawkers. His hooping it up with the troops and eating breakfast with them shows his choice contradictions. Obama was only interested in media coverage, which is why he opted not to go and visit the wounded troops. I''''m sure they were very excited about the prospect of seeing him, but instead were dissed by the great one! Again, if Obama truly was sincere about visiting the wounded, he would''''ve negotiated with the Pentagon to allow him to visit, minus all of the media frenetic hoopla. McCain''''s ad is accurate.

Jerry Falwell founded the Moral Majority, strongly supported racial segregation, blamed the feminists, and the *** and the lesbians for 9/11. Pat Robertson ran for president in the 80s, until he got caught lying about having combat experience as a Marine in Korea....

I didn''t say Rev. Wright. That would be a closer analogy. What''s wrong with Jesse or Al. Al''s on FOX news every other week. I think it''s the perm. White American is so afraid of a strong black man. Why can''t we have a perm in the White House?

Yeah, and I don''''t think Obama should pick any of them. Did you even read my post? Jesse and Al is who he should pick. He would gain ten points in the polls, at least.

It would only work if McCain picked Falwell and Pat Robertson first....McCain would at least get a 20 point bounce from bringing in Pat and Jerry!!!

Jesse ran for president, he has long been a international figure (one of Obama''''s perceived weaknesses), and he was able to make a deal with terrorists to get hostages released.
Al, well he stopped wearing the jogging suits to press conferences.

Iran is gonna keep testing missles and bragging about how close they are to having nuclear weapons. Then they''ll be the next one''s crying about how the big mean USA is picking on dirt farmers. Sometimes you get what you ask for.

McCain has a hot wife. He should get credit for that.

Obama didn''''t in any way back the "General Betrayus" ad campaign. He has openly criticized MoveOn and other outside groups that air negative ads. In response to Obamas criticism, and because pragmatically it was no longer needed, MoveOn has terminated its 527 Voter Fund. The Obama campaign has received no funds from MoveOn.

Obama wasn''t any way against it either. When they were asked to refute the ad, nobody came forward.
When it politically expediant Obama criticized ads "like that".

War is ugly. Ugly things will always happen no matter the good intentions. "Don''t want no s*** don''t start no s***" to quote the poet/rapper Lil John. Iran should think about that.

Well, lets get back to reality here...if any member of the Armed Forces acts in a dishonorable manner, such as committing crimes in a foreign country to the embarrassment of this country, then he should be punished. Law breaking military personnel are not beyond critizism and should not be allowed to break laws in foriegn countries with impunity.....
