Republicans amp up attacks on Obama for campaigning on Bin Laden's slaying. “Shamelessly turning the one decision he got right into a pathetic political act of self-congratulation,” says McCain.
Here's the Arizona Senator's full statement:
"Shame on Barack Obama for diminishing the memory of September 11th and the killing of Osama bin Laden by turning it into a cheap political attack ad. This is the same President who once criticized Hillary Clinton for invoking bin Laden 'to score political points.'
"This is the same President who said, after bin Laden was dead, that we shouldn't 'spike the ball' after the touchdown. And now Barack Obama is not only trying to score political points by invoking Osama bin Laden, he is doing a shameless end-zone dance to help himself get reelected.

Clock right and all that.
Weirdly enough, McCain’s forbearance on Obama’s antics makes him a much more credible critic. Nobody can say McCain is a relentless carper who has had this longstanding chip on his shoulder about Obama.
Well, McCain contributed to Obama’s propaganda roll-out on the bin Ladin raid, even though it was apparently based on information gathered by George Bush, and there is some suspicion that he delayed it for six months for political reasons—and then successfully played it as a distraction from the birther controversy and the forged COLB that he put on line.
McCain chastises Obama now-—next week he will be back at his old stand kissing Obama’s butt.
He’s about 3 1/2 years late..?
Mr Amnesty/anti-waterboarding/hold Palin back..quick call an emergency meeting or something McLame-O!
I hope Rinomney isn’t taking any advice from gramps unless its to savage Odumdum!
You know, I’ll give the guy a pass on this one if he finally releases a video of Bin Laden hiding behind his women and getting shot dead.
Is this the same McCain who refused to use BHO’s middle name or the same one who said he was a good guy.....
is this the same McCain that I care diddle squat about?
I should have reads ahead ... wonder if we can get a consensus on this destructive old bastard?
Man,there are so many people responsible for screwing up America but I would have to put McCain in the top 25.
We have a POS that needs to be flushed, big-time.
BY abandoning conservative causes, the GOP is going to look spineless, arrogant, uncharitable and greedy.
Romney presidency is a no go at this point in time. THe electoral map is even a forgone conclusion now that states are becoming entrenched, no matter who the candidate is.
However, what is clear, is that Romney is going to be painted as greedy because he has abandoned the cause against abortion, gays, private health care and what not.
THey completely squandered the message and fell for the trap that liberals made right wing charity look like they were something to avoid.
Four years too late, John.
Sit and spin you old fart!
Frig McCainac and his wife’s Budweiser Clydesdale horse he rode in on.
And his fat nasty daughter, too.
If McCain had shown that kind of fight three years ago, things might be a lot better off than they are now.
In his defense, however, I have to admit that back then nobody had any real conception of how bad Obama was going to be. That’s a pretty lame defense, but I am willing to give him that.
It’s interesting. I am starting to get a sense that there are establishment elements in the country — elite left, right and moderate — that are starting to become very concerned with the way things are trending. When the NYT starts taking potshots at Obama, even mild ones, it’s a strong signal to the established wealthy that their interests are at stake.
The establishment elite, more than anyone else, are utterly dependent on their position in the system. And by that I mean the degree by which they can manipulate political power on behalf of their sponsors and themselves. If Obama upsets the applecart and overthrows the current political order, they go down with it — or a lot of them do, anyhow.
This, cannot be in their best interests, and sometimes you can even get the feeling the people like Pelosi know it. Oh sure, officially he’s still the Wonde
