> “He had me in tears, this feeling for an understanding of Israel’s predicament,” said Leonard Eisenfeld, a Connecticut pediatrician whose son was killed in a Hamas bus bombing in Jerusalem in 1996. He said he respects McCain, but is now more open to Obama, calling him a “good soul” in Yiddish.

McCain has his work cut out for him in overcoming the emotion generated by this Svengali Socialist.

I’ll say it again: If we had attacked Iran instead of Iraq, he’d be standing right there saying we should have gone after Saddam because of Kuwait, WMDs, and links with terrorism. I know this like I know my palm.

He is naive at best.
He only understands his own liberal ideology and will only bring about destruction with his well meant methods.
Jimmy Carter II

Someone should have the guts and determination to call BHO himself a failure.
He who sets the rules of the debate, wins the debate.

Take this away from him NOW!

Can’t wait for McCain’s reply. Boy Wonder is getting used to making grandiose, sweeping statements with impunity. It’s ludicrous to think having 150,000 US troops sitting on one side of Iran and a pro-western government in Afghanistan on the other has “emboldened” Iran.

US has had no attacks on our soil since 9/11 and Israel has nearly completely eliminated all suicide bombings.

This guy wants the jews to drink more kool-aide.

Tell me, Hussein, exactly how establishing two free republics, that are our staunch allies, on both soides of the leading state sponsor of terror in the world (Iran), where we can maintain bases and close vigilance, and punitive action against said state, makes us less safe?

Tell me oh Herr Obama, how killing the Jihadists by the tens of thosuands and causing their leadership to litterally hide in holes in the ground, afraid to even come out of those holes for fear that a Predator drone will drop Hellfire on their heads, makes us less sarfe?

Tell me, oh annointed one, how the fact that we have not been hit by another major terrorist attack, even though our enemies have been hell bent on doing just that for the last seven years, is indicative of us being less safe?

The fact is, we are more safe, and any individual with a scintilla of sense, or an honest bone in their body knows it.

Your words do not hold water Obama...no matter how much you think that just because you say them, or because you have tens of thousands of useless idiots fawning over you, makes you want them to be true.

Fact is, you yourself are the apex of the hate-America, domestic enemy in this nation and what you propose would aid and abett our enemies in the extreme...and they know it. That's why they all are hoping you will win.

Be aware Barack Hussein Obama that there are tens of millions of us who know exactly who you are and what you represent. we might not be what the MSM calls "energized", but we are out here watching and listening and we have heard your snide, arrogant remarks and foolish proposals and we are involved. We talk, we netwrok, and we are groinw...and we also vote.

Because of who you really are...because of what you really represent...you are going down. We hope to make your defeat make Mondale's defeat appear like a breath of fresh air to the DNC for the next cycle.

THE AUDACITY OF TRUTH ABOUT BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA

This is what many, including here at FR, don't understand or accept. This election, like most elections, will be all about feelings, not philosophies or government programs. It doesn't matter how we are doing in Iraq, it only matters how the voters feel about it. It doesn't matter how our economy is, it only matters how the voters feel about it.

Obama has a talent for making people feel good about what he says, McCain has just the opposite effect.

The war in Iraq has made Iran stronger and the United States and Israel less secure

Yeah, having military bases in Iraq are only good for surrendering to Iran. You need to build the bases so you have something to pull out from, surrender and go then home. Once you're home, go the church and hear the God D*mn America sermon and Barrack and the Iranians will love you.

Because of the war in Iraq, he said, "Iran, which always posed a greater threat to Israel than Iraq, is emboldened, and poses the greatest strategic challenge to the United States and Israel in the Middle East in a generation."

Yes. Truly a great man, and such a strategist! Go right at your enemy, full face! Don't weaken him and soften him up by going after the small, weak ones around him. You don't want to surround your enemy so he has nowhere to go. Why that would be downright mean and hateful!

Pure political pandering...Obama now says we attacked the wrong country which means he does believe in military force as a tool of diplomacy, but, only when he is addressing Jews.
