Obama Owes McCain An Apology

Let me be completely up front here. Although he is far from my dream candidate, I am voting for Senator John McCain this fall. And even though Senator Barack Obama has disappointed me at times, I have been giving him high praise in my posts over the last few weeks. Now we are all big boys here, and we are fully aware that the Candidates will be taking shots at each other from now through November. The Bottom line here is that Senator Obama owes senator McCain an apology for saying that McCain has "lost his bearings". Obama's remark was in response to an earlier statement by Senator McCain. McCain was quoting an audio interview of Ahmed Yousef, Hamas' top political adviser in the Gaza Strip. Yousef said Hamas "hopes" Obama will win the presidential election. So they both took shots at each other what's the difference? Obama owes McCain an apology for the "lost his bearings" remark, whether he intended it as an age related insult or not, because it can surely be taken that way. McCain was quoting a known terrorist who just endorsed Obama for President, making that a valid political issue. Senator Obama should be more concerned that he has the support of our enemies for President. As a patriot, I would be offended if terrorists had endorsed my campaign. Obama has shown lately that he can be a real classy and respectable guy. Senator, it's time to do that again here. Just let it be known that you are sorry, and you did not mean any offence concerning McCain's age. Also sir, you ought to let the enemy know that if elected, you will be the friend of Freedom and Democracy, not terrorists.

Aren't you sick of the republican tactic of claiming who the terrorists would like to win?

Who "controls" your vote? You, or the terrorists?

By the way, "losing your bearings" also has to do with falling off the high road and using ridiculous tactics like smearing Obama with opinions from terrorists... which is no different than assuming any other person speaks for Obama.

Fuck, I wish people in the US would grow up.
