ONE thing I wish Obama and his surrogates would say but haven't yet. It's about McCain's judgment.
Instead of just responding to McCain's claim that "Obama shows extremely poor judgment by saying even knowing what he knows now, he'd STILL be against the surge" by saying, "If it was up to Obama, we wouldn't BE in Iraq," I think he should point out MCCAIN'S extremely poor judgment by saying McCain would still vote to invade Iraq even knowing what he knows now. I've never heard ANYONE say that, and I wish they would.

3. At least that was covered in Faux's documentary. But it's explained away by a mistake that hurt
him more than even his torture, because it was wrong, and now he's turned himself around. :eyes:

2. This is going that way; who knows what else he said.

4. Thanks. Yes, I saw that today. But he STILL hasn't pointed out that McCain would STILL vote
for the Iraq war knowing what he knows today. That would be a good comeback for McCain's charge of Obama's judgment "knowing what he knows today."

5. CNN just said that Obama surrogates called McCain's foreign policy
Edited on Wed Aug-20-08 03:09 PM by Pirate Smile
judgment reckless and "trigger-happy" on a campaign call.

McCain deserves a Daisy ad.

6. I like that. But even so, that STILL doesn't draw attention to the HORRIBLE judgment
of saying he'd still invade Iraq knowing what he knows today.

They do go after his judgment. Now I just want them to do it on TV over and over again - all the surrogates on the same page.

9. Thanks for the link. But I STILL think they should ADD to all that by pointing out hisi
claim that he'd still invade Iraq knowing what we know TODAY. They've said lots of good, strong things about his poor judgment, but not that.

7. "Trigger Happy" is an understatement. McInSane wants to go to war with Iran &Russia
while continuing the non-stop war in Iraq and ignoring Afghanistan.. all the while he'll be chasing Osama Bin Laden to the gates of hell.. in his walker.
