McCain: Obama Does Not Have What It Takes to Protect America
(CBS)
(TAMPA, FLA.) – Attempting to change the subject away from the economy and back to national security, John McCain questioned whether Barack Obama could serve as an effective commander-in-chief after a meeting with his national security advisers.
“They question whether my opponent in this election has the wisdom or judgment to serve as commander in chief,” McCain said.
“Our enemies' violent ambitions must still be prevented – by American vigilance, by diplomacy and cooperation with our partners, and by force of arms as a last resort.”
McCain said Obama was unprepared to deal with America’s enemies, repeating his oft-told line that his running mate, Joe Biden, has said a crisis will occur if Obama is elected.
“The question is whether this is a man who has what it takes to protect America from Osama bin Laden, al Qaeda, and other grave threats in the world,” McCain said.
“He has given you no reason to answer in the affirmative.”

I love how all you howler monkey%u2019s love to label democrats a socialists ------ while your cornpone dictator implements an unprecedented %u201CSTATE%u201D takeover and ownership of our banking infrastructure. That, my dim-witted repugnicants, is called SOCIALSIM.
Incidentally, McCain never commanded anything other than a small group of men (whom he betrayed), received %u201Chonorary medals%u201D given as a courtesy to all POW on repatriating and will actually tax health care.
General Wesley Clark, ret., puts it better: "The truth is that .. McCain''s largely untested and untried. He''s never been responsible for policy formulation. He''s never had leadership in a crisis, or in anything larger than his own aircraft carrier."
Oh well, at least we%u2019ve got Palin, you betcha.
