Obama Says McCain’s Negative Shift Is a Sign of Problems

Most adults will find the comparison apt — and amusing.

Oh there goes Obama stop exaggerating, he complemented you in front of the naacp, he said nice things about the dali lama, when was the last time Obama complemented McCain or right he’s too busy making radio ads calling him McSame.

McCain is an absolute disgrace. America will rightly kick him and his “low road” political smears to the curb where they belong.

One more thing- This is VERY IMPORTANT, so please don’t delete my comment-
Folks, more drilling is NOT going to lower your prices. We have the technology and the ability to shift fuel dependencies RIGHT NOW. The answer is NOT more drilling.
We could send a man to the moon YEARS ago, and you think we can’t power the nation with alternates? USE YOUR BRAIN, the technology is there and ready- it has been squashed by big oil.
Even my parents and brothers who work in big oil, they can’t even look their kids in the face and support more drilling.
I’ll let you into the saying in my house- when your a crackhead, you’ll do whatever you have to. When the crack dries up, you’ll switch to a new drug when you have to- but otherwise- you’ll go to no end to attain your choice.
Guess what- crack (oil) is killing you, killing our kid’s future and the earth. You’re already sacrificing with oil prices- FORCE the change and watch how many new jobs are created in America that CAN’T BE OUTSOURCED.
Think folks, please- my God, we are voting against this and it is what we have made a living from.
THINK.

I guess the truth is that McCain either isn’t capable of running a decent campaign or can’t control the people who are working for him. Either way, it doesn’t say much for your ability to run the country

Senator Obama is a disgrace to the American political system. He was thrust down our throats by the DNC, MSM superdelegates, high-powered democrats and money launderers. His political resume is so thin one can see through it except for the legislation he stole from other senators with the help of Emil Jones. His supporters are young and uninformed about the high risks if he is elected. We do not want or need a true socialist in the White House.

McCain is an absolute disgrace. America will rightly kick him and his “low road” political smears to the curb where they belong.

Tarred and feathered. Run out on a rail. Keel-hauled. Poked in the eye with a sharp stick. Walk the plank. Drop the soap.
These are the sayings that I find endearing when I think of McSame.
Our leaders are losers and liars. In time, they will see the truth. If we help give them a sideline seat to view from.
Pay attention – it IS different. So whatever you do, don’t vote for the same.

Mc Cain claims to support the military. Is that why he voted against the new GI Bill for educational benefits for the troops coming home? He is a grumpy old man who is still trying to please the religious right and sell out on tax breaks for the wealthy. He married his mistress and dated her while still married to his first wife. He was trying to be in his 20s while in his 40s. We can’t have 4 more years of McSame.

When Sen. McCain and his campaign put out statements that are observably false, he undermines his credibility. Either 1) he is cynical and believes he can put something over on the citizens of this country, or 2) has a mind-set that grabs onto something and can’t reason himself out of it, even if it’s not true. These are not good qualities in a President: was he cynical in telling us we had to go to Iraq (and now thinking about Iran) or is this a manifestation of a mind-set that cannot accept a reality he doesn’t want to see.
If people can see that what he says about Sen. Obama isn’t true, how much will they believe what he says about Putin or Hugo Chavez or Raul Castro?

Now it’s the other way around the table, McCain is the one that is going to do whatever it takes to claim the presidency. Watch out people, it’s another conflict of interest. By the way, can anyone remember when McCain said he will run a moderate campaign? is he flipping or flopping? well may the next next TV ad he will be giving his supporters his version of the purple KOOL AID.

Sally, speaking of crooked bastards. Was Tony Rezko crooked????? Was Bill Ayers crooked??? Was Rev. Wright God-like????.
Most mature people believe that you are judged by the company you keep. If you lie down with dogs with fleas, you are gonna get fleas. Barrack Obama CANNOT say he did not have a long relationship with Rezko, Ayers and Rev. Wright.

Mary,
I have kept company with many considered “unfavorable”. I have helped many of them turn their life around. I am my own person, always have been. I see that in Barack.
You can buy a product to rid yourself of fleas. (duh)
The idea that no one keeps company with those they do not agree with is preposterous. You LEARN from subjecting yourself to ALL WALKS OF LIFE.
Otherwise, you sound like YOU.
I’ll take my outlook anyday.

Once again, no one can criticize the chosen one. I recall Obama ran plenty of negative and disingenuous ads as well as disseminate disinformation through flyers and surrogates to steal the nomination from Hillary. Obama has a track record of smearing/challenging his rivals, then to turn around and play victim.
Well its too late, it may have worked during the primaries but we have seen through your bag of dirty tricks.

McSame is being Bush!
His Staff is really silly and stupid!
He needs help!!

McCain truly has the lamest campaign in recent memory. All the man talks about is the surge, the surge, the surge in Iraq. Also the calls to drill for oil everywhere is ludicrous. This will take years to develop at best
Wake up folks the oil addiction has to kicked.
McCain chastises Obama for not going to Europe and then it backfires on McCain as it is very successful.
I have not heard one iota of intelligence regarding lost jobs, new technologies for alternative energy, fiscal responsibility, or other important issues from McCain.
I thought McCain would be a good nominee but really the guy has no depth and is out of touch with current events.
McCain better ramp up some positive things about himself or it will be an ugly November at the pools.

The Republican way. It’s not God, guns and gays anymore. It’s ignorance, greed, and fear. They don’t care about America. They care about the America they want to create and if that leaves good Americans out of it so be it. Problem is McCain is even worse at this type of politics than George W. Bush and will fail miserably. What happened to the old McCain who wasn’t afraid to stand up for what he really believed? It’s time for a pragmatic leader and Obama is that. He will probably end up being more centrist than Clinton ever was. He will always put country ahead of idealogical values. Don’t be afraid of him America. Be afraid of a party that has doubled the national deficit and decided it is more important to invest in other countries while we invest less in ours. We could never do worse than what we’ve gone through for the last 8 years. Go Obama!

Obama should make an ad with two old has been actresses and a small room of voters yelling sex before country.

Sally, I agree that we learn from people we do not always agree with but I don’t know that we learn from being with criminals for long term. Maybe you can enlighten me what you have learned from your long association with known criminals.
I also congratulate you for helping others in need. Sometimes life has a way of knocking one off their feet through no fault of their own.

Mary,
Partial of your quote-
“but I don’t know that we learn from being with criminals for long term”
Aside from effect, I am not sure what your comment asks. I have a relationship with a friend who has a long history of breaking into houses. He even taught me how he did it. (on my own house, of course) Throughout the yeras, he learned that while I invited him into my house, how upset I would be if he stole it from me.
Fast forward, I have an elderly lady who lives next door. Her bi weekly nurse POUNDED on my door and asked me to help her. We could see her laying on the floor through the window. She said she was calling the police. I had that window open in about 5 seconds- without breaking anything. We saved her life, and destroyed no property.
Good people who are willing to learn how a vast majority of scorned, screwed and even bad people in this world think is not a bad thing. It is also beneficial for them to know that someone understands them.
This country is so lost with the concept of understanding anything, it is sad.

McCain is not Bush. McCain is much worse. WTB = worse than Bush.
Take a close look at the man. No rational human being can observe him with care and conclude that he has the temperament to be president.
He has no clue about economic policy. He is ignorant about the Middle East and Iraq. He knows and care nothing about women’s issues. Catch McCain’s response to the reporter who asked him about health insurance companies covering Viagra but not birth control.
McCain gives every appearance of being a man who hates war, and can’t wait to start one. Look at the people McCain now surrounds himself with. These people are destroying America. I wish this was mere exaggeration. It is not.
Anything that continues or expands Bush’s policies

JOHN MCCAIN IS AN HONORABLE MAN
just ask his first wife…..

Republicans have us at war in two countries as a result of Republican lies and deceptions, and we might be in two more wars–Iran and Pakistan–by November.
The dollar has lost 60% of its value against the euro, and the once mighty dollar is losing its reserve currency role.
The Republicans’ policies have driven up the price of both oil and gold by 400%.
Inflation is in double digits. Employment is falling.
The Republican economy in the 21st century has been unable to create net new jobs for Americans except for low wage domestic services such as waitresses, bartenders, retail clerks and hospital orderlies.
Republican deregulation brought about fraud in mortgage lending and dangerous financial instruments which have collapsed the housing market, leaving a million or more homeowners facing foreclosure. The financial system is in disarray and might collapse from insolvency.
The trade and budget deficits have exploded. The US trade deficit is larger than the combined trade deficits of every deficit country in the world.
The US can no longer finance its wars or its own government and relies on foreign loans to function day to day. To pay for its consumption, the US sells its existing assets–companies, real estate, toll roads, whatever it can offer–to foreigners.
Republicans have run roughshod over the US Constitution, Congress, the courts and civil liberties. Republicans have made it perfectly clear that they believe that our civil liberties make us unsafe–precisely the opposite view of our Founding Fathers. Yet, Republicans regard themselves as the Patriotic Party.
The Republicans have violated the Nuremberg prohibitions against war crimes, and they have violated the Geneva Conventions against torture and abuse of prisoners. Republican disregard for human rights ranks with that of history’s great tyrants.
The Republicans have put in place the foundation for a police state, which they have no problem using against fellow citizens!
We must get the Republicans totally out of power, or we will have no country left for any of us!

Mary,
It was wonderful to disagree with you. I hope you will reconsider your position. I would never vote to harm my child in the future.
If I lived next door to you, I’d bring you dinner, maybe even breakfast :)
I am a good person and have a barrell full of hope and a heart full of understanding. It has brought me many friends from all walks of life, many of which I have helped. Open minds and open hearts are a powerful thing.
Goodnight to you also :)

It blows me away that there are so many differing opinions concerning this race. What the heck does it matter? At the level that both Obama and McCain are nothing that they say is sincere. I am convinced that politicians are all exactly the same. They will say whatever it takes to get elected. They have no conviction at all. They want power period. All that they want from us is 1. Our money and 2. our vote. Don’t kid yourself we haven’t a clue what either of these clowns have in mind. No president in years (maybe ever) has done what they promised and yet we are all so anxious to have an identity that we post with anger on sites like this, call each other names and swear that what we believe is factual. No one except the very small circle around these guys know what they really are like. Quit being so foolish as to act like you know what they’ll do. Ridiculous!

Now, this is the pot calling the kettle black (no pun intended). Obama is trying to make it look like he’s squeaky clean, what an idiot! Obama continues to lie, pander, flip-flop, and above all, run down McCain for everything McCain stands for. Why, because Obamaroma is losing in the polls and will lose in November. Be for real, Obama, give it up…loser!

Bluejay The far right hates McCain and Obama has certainly done his share of pandering to the far right. Faith based initiatives? who sounds like George W there? Showing his total lack of understanding on the abortion issue while being interviewed by the Christian magazine. Your guy has supported FISA, backed out of public financing, supports the death penalty, backed off gun control, backed off NAFTA, plans to continue George W’s war on terror and keeps the military option on the table for Iran. Sometimes I think we have two Republicans running for the Presidency. The GI bill and McCain- as is the case with either a Democrat or Republican, when they oppose a bill it isn’t a blanket statement about their committment, as in the case, to GI’s but rather is that they disagree with some specifics of the bill. McCain felt the amount and timeline that one would accrue school benefits as specified in Webb’s bill would not be conducive to troop retainment. McCain also wanted to see
those school benefits be transferable to the children of GI’s (which was not in Webb’s bill and which many GI’s would like to see happen, they can transfer those benefits right now to their spouse but not their children) and he also wanted to see more assistance in regards to past student loans. We need to keep drawing our conclusions just based on headlines and look at the details before we can make blanket statements like McCain doesn’t want to help the troops in regards to school benefits. And the same applies for the Democrats when they are labeled such inappropriately. One could also ask why the Dems sat on this bill for the past couple years and yet opted to pull it out right now and address it.
It’s all a political game and we need to take it for what it is.

I think McCain should do another ad of Obama holding hands with Oprah, and Rev. Wright, Jesse Jackson, and Rosco and don’t forget their nice back drop of the world Map with a phrase that says Change we can believe in.

OH both compliment and attack each other, so enough of the Obama always compliment or the McCain always compliment. I can’t stand Obama but i know both attack each other and then whine about the other. It’s politics people, and both are doing a heck of a great job at attacking each other, ex tv ads, radio ads, pamphlets being mailed out accusing the other. So stop the whining Obama if u want some credibility.

Is McCain the kind of person we want as president? Another liar who distorts facts to make a case. Haven’t we had enough of this with George Bush?

An experienced politician does not act like McCain. A man with integrity does not play “low road” smearing attack. I dont know what kind of experience and integrity that he claims he has over Obama’s ? His campaign looks more like that of Clinton during the primary. All they can put out are smearing attacks.

Well Obama would know a lot about the low road. He is the most corrupt politician in Washington. Look at all of the shady characters who are part of his core. His campaign has been really frightening behind the scenes.
Obama is trying to get new voters…well many of those voters are homeless.
Will someone in the press please show Obama for the corrupt politician that he is!

John25 WROTE: “Obama is trying to get new voters…well many of those voters are homeless”
There are at least 4 amendments to the Constitution which guarantees the Right to Vote. Which one denies that right to homeless people?

McCain is trying to portray an image of Obama….Unfortunately, it also portrays an image of himself and the Republican party…That is, a crotchery old man, resistant to change, and devoid any new ideas. A return to the past or maintaining status quo while throwing darts at those who embrace change is all they have…A tired old man with tired old ideas….a great symbol for what the Republican party has become..

McCain is the true American?
He is resorting to vicious tactics, because he is losing.
What could be more American than that?
