3. Expected McCain response to Obama response:

So, NOW you're calling us LIARS! Have you no shame at all?

Obama has to respond to every piece of dirt that they throw at him, bar none.

5. It's OK for mcCane to call Hillary Clinton a pig in lipstick. It's NOT OK for

Barack Obama to call mcCane's campaign platform a pig in lipstick.

It's ok to "support the troops but not this president" when Bill Clinton is the president, but it's TREASON to "support the troops but not this president" when George "stupidest MFer on the planet" bUsh is the president.

The ol' rightwing double standard is alive & well. Hypocrisy and whining; it's the rightwing way of life.

8. If Obama doesn't stand and fight this bullshit,

Edited on Wed Sep-10-08 10:58 AM by Tansy_Gold

he doesn't deserve to be elected.

All the pretty speeches in the world won't do him or us any good when it comes down to the nitty gritty. Gore didn't fight. Kerry didn't fight. And we got the current mess BECAUSE they didn't fight.

If they're lying, then call them liars. Don't give me or the media a speech about what truth is or why it matters. Just call them liars.

Bullies can't stand it when someone stands up to them.
