Cindy offended by Obama's speech!!?!!!111
http://blogs.abcnews.com/politicalradar/2008/08/cindy-mccain-te.html


ABC News' George Stephanopoulos reports: Democrats' attacks on her family's wealth are unfair and offensive, Cindy McCain said today in an interview airing tomorrow on "This Week with George Stephanopoulos."

For nearly two weeks, Democrats have repeatedly hit Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., for saying he is unaware of how many houses he owns, calling the presumptive Republican presidential nominee out of touch with everyday Americans. In his acceptance speech at the Democratic convention on Thursday, Democratic nominee Barack Obama turned up the heat on McCain, saying he "doesn't know" about the lives of middle-class Americans.

"I'm offended by Barack Obama saying that about my husband," said McCain's wife Cindy.
When asked if Obama went too far in his criticism of McCain, Cindy responded, "I do. I do. I really do."



WWAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!! :nopity:

5. Wonder if Cindy's equally as offended by the "PERSONAL" attacks
on Michelle Obama. Would sure have been nice if she had commented on that. :eyes:

6. Fuck her.
She needs to be keeping an eye on her husband instead of worrying about what Obama is saying.

She's just trying to make news.

Trying to make it appear that Obama has "insulted" her. That will feed in well with the meme that we will be hit with soon about how the "Obama camp" (But it will only be Obama supporters) is circulating rumors.

WHich is why we need to stop doing it.

7. Well he DOESN'T - it's as easy as that.
I grew up in an affluent household (like McCain's) and I had NO real concept of what it was really like, either. (Now, I do!)

Cindy no doubt longs for the days when she could have Obama horsewhipped for sassing her like that.

18. She's offended that Obama spoke the truth about her husband?
Guess honesty isn't a value in the McCain family McMansion.

19. A white woman saying a black man insulted her
is a very serious and real danger. And they ( Rove) know it.

The first time Cindy or Gov Pallin road test it, there may not be much made of it, in the general population but, the dog whistle crowd will get their cue and it will become viral.

Trust me, this is where it's headed. Pallin is part of the plan.

22. This is a real interesting take. One that is surely picked up by the
audience it was meant for. Very observant.

20. Be aware of what this means:
it means the Republicans are definitely going with the feigned victimhood tactic often used by the Right.

Don't for a moment think the tactic is accidental. It's not. It's a tactic known and used and taught and, no doubt, selected by McCain strategists and set up, in this instance, by them (do you really think Stephanopoulos didn't play along?).

The single best defense against feigned victimhood is to point it out, name it, and make it look ridiculous by comparing the feigned victimhood to genuine victims of Bush policy (such as workers, people losing their houses, etc.) Don't reverse it and try to make Obama and Biden the victims: that won't persuade.

23. That's right, of course.
And we especially can't say anything as offensive as "out of touch". That's just really crossing the line. He was a POW! How dare we say he's "out of touch"!
