Obama will get creamed playing this card on McCain.
I agree. For the last 4 years liberals and Democrats have been criticizing President Bush and his advisors for being out of touch with the members of the armed forces who are serving on the battlefield. We've all seen and heard their talking points ad nauseum. But nobody can say that about Senator McCain. He surely has as much experience as any living person as to the cost of fighting for freedom and our nation.
I only hope that Sen. McCain has the opportunity and nerve to point that out to Sen. Obama - perhaps in a debate. I'd like to hear him say something like "Whether we like it our not our nation and our military will have to fight with terrorists in the years ahead. Unlike you, I have first hand experience in the price that our military personnel pay to protect your freedom and that of our fellow citizens. I'll ensure that our military personnel always have the full support and backing of the government, something you and your Democrat colleagues never do. And I'll never sell out our military like your friend Dick Murtha."
Make that Jack Murtha. My fingers' opinion of him slipped through.
Don't hold your breath.
