"Democrat Barack Obama scolded Russia....for invading another country’s sovereign territory while adding....the United States, should set a better example on that front, too...."

Funny!...but freaky! ~shiver~

I’m thinking McCain should emulate Reagan’s approach to campaigning and never acknowledge Barry in any way. Talk solely about what he’s going to do. He shouldn’t dignify this kind of garbage.

So whats he saying “PLAY NICE”?

The “stand by Muslim Brothers” is not quite accurate. On p 261 of Audacity he says

“Of course, not all my conversations in immigrant communities follow this easy pattern. In the wake of 9/11, my meetings with Arab and Pakistani Americans, for example, have a more urgent quality, for the stories of detentions and FBI questioning and hard stares from neighbors have shaken their sense of security and belonging. They have been reminded that the history of immigration in this country has a dark underbelly; they need specific reassurances that their citizenship really means something, that America has learned the right lessons from the Japanese internments during World War II, and that I will stand with them should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.”

That’s bad enough. Dark underbelly of immigration is a cynical slam at the USA.

I think you got everything else right, though, if he did not hold a management position in that Bill Ayers organization, data’s still coming in on that one.

“There is NO comparison. Bush had purpose. “

I agree, though I just had a conversation wit a liberal who hooted Bush Lied as I tried to bring up these crucial points.

[Rennes Templar]

You left the most important reason:
He will bring Hope and Change!!!!!!!!

Yep. McCain needs to maintain the initiative he gained at Saddlebrook, and never let Obama try to set the agenda. Just ignore 'im. Like he would treat a child having a temper tantrum.

“We’ve got to send a clear message to Russia and unify our allies,” Obama told a crowd of supporters in Virginia.

There is a huge leap between saying it and doing it.

This empty suit has just empty words

I wish a reporter would ask Senator: "can you expound on what you mean by "clear message to Russia and unify our allies,”

Probably would more uh, um, ah than than actual words

[mainepatsfan]

What a frigen moron.

[lonevoice]

That is one of the best posts I've read in many a day.

I'm still amazed that the Obamessiah would say anything this patently stupid! Of course he can count on his unpaid volunteers in the MSM to carry the water for him on this by making sure most of America never hears about it.

With Hussein in the White House—they won’t have to ‘charge’ into other countries. They’ll just be able to ‘walk’ in.

[Tijeras_Slim]

Can we change into Fiji for a couple weeks? I’m too cheap to fly there on vacation.

[stockstrader]

I’d like to add two: ZERO accomplishments as a senator,,,,,and cited as the “MOST LIBERAL” of the 100 senators (100 out of 100) by National Review—more liberal than Ted Kennedy, John Kerry, Harry Reid, etc.

[xmission]

dick-ed just has to take a swipe at the US whenever possible.

[xmission]

Saddam Hussein was a vicious dictator who was hell bent on acquiring had weapons of mass destruction

[G8 Diplomat]

We went into Iraq to liberate it. Russia went in to Georgia to conquer it. There’s a difference, Obama, and you can’t equate the two. Fool.

[Popman]

The West must not squander this opportunity to make cruel subjection of Georgia become Putin’s undoing.

Europe isn't up to the job, even if they actually protest, it will only empower Putin because he knows one day of turning off the natural gas will bring them to their knees, which won't be very far to fall, since their protestations will be on blended knee anyway

The USA is weary of war and carrying the burden of the world, it will be a hard sell to the American people to do more to Putin than talk big and show them the big stick

Obama is a pacifist at heart as all elitist have a yellow streak down their back and will do nothing but ask Americans to be concerned about her own problems and look away

McCain will see the landscape for what it is but, be hamstring by a democrat / socialist Congress that will fight him every step of the way

Bottom line Georgia is screwed and the remaining former satellites better be prepared to defend themselves

[Teacher317]

So when foreign troops run through a nation... say the US... Obama will scold them and say that they shouldn’t do that! Yep, THAT’LL help! Very substantive guy, this one.
