VOTE Obama and equate Iraq with Georgia: Really:
Democrat Barack Obama scolded Russia again on Wednesday for invading another countrys sovereign territory while adding a new twist: the United States, he said, should set a better example on that front, too
Weve got to send a clear message to Russia and unify our allies, Obama told a crowd of supporters in Virginia. They cant charge into other countries. Of course it helps if we are leading by example on that point.
Says Andrew Bolt:
A contender for the presidency of the United States sees a parallel between the US invading Iraq, a bloody tyranny in defiance of UN Security Council resolutions, to replace its dictator with an elected government, and Russia invading Georgia, a democracy in breach of no international law, to punish it for seeking the protection and friendship of Europe and the US
Saddam Hussein. Remember him..?

If the GOP and Team McCain don't use this, they deserve to lose this November!

I don't think the people who used to write his lines still are. I think his original backers are abandoning ship.

Also, Obama lies to such a degree that he makes Bill Jeff Clintoon seem honest by comparison.

As I reflect upon his statements over the past several weeks, I think that you may be on to something.

I wouldn’t exactly classify this as a lie, instead, I would tend to look at this as a real bad understanding of world events. Had he tried to equate the Russians invading Georgia and the United States invading Kosovo then he would have some very legitimate ground to stand on. But to equate the Russians invading Georgia with our war in Iraq just doesn’t hold up.

Did I mention that it will be McCain by 10 in the popular vote?

“McCain by 10 in the popular vote?”
I hate to see McCain win by too much, I’d hate it if he was ever compared to Regan who knew something about a landslide victory. But I am a bit happier as it appears America is waking up to the threat from within.
And then we have to be prepared to put a lot of pressure on McCain, because he’s not the one either,
BUT
He’ll just have to do.....

To borrow from a quote by William Buckley who stated that he would rather be governed by the first ten names out of the phonebook than by a a group of mandarins from Harvard:
I would rather be governed by any of the first ten sign-ups on Free Republic than by Barrack Hussein Obama.
