Obama says McCain 'finally giving us a little straight talk'

Source: CNN

(CNN) -- Sen. Barack Obama said Sunday that Sen. John McCain was now "owning up to the fact that he and George Bush actually have a whole lot in common."

"Just this morning, Sen. McCain said that, actually, he and President Bush -- 'share a common philosophy.' That's right, Colorado. I guess that was John McCain finally giving us a little straight talk," Obama said at a rally in Denver.

Obama was referring to McCain's Sunday interview on NBC's "Meet the Press."

NBC's Tom Brokaw pointed to a review of McCain's record, which showed he voted with Bush 92 percent of the time.

1. Saying that Bush has a philosophy...

to share in common with anybody is laughable at best. I'm certain he doesn't have much by way of philosophy.

Remember? Bush was asked who his fave Philosopher was and, because he couldn't think of any philosophers, he said the only old timey "deep" guy he could think of....Jesus.

Enough of know-nothing, gut thinking morans!
