Hypocritical Obama campaign calls McCain dishonorable

While attacking on age and war injuries

By: Soren Dayton (Diary)  |  September 15th, 2008 at 10:54 AM  | 

RESIZE: AAA

Barack Obama’s campaign demonstrated what shameless hypocrites they are. This morning, they went up with an ad calling John McCain dishonorable and sleazy.

Yet on Friday, they released an ad that accused him of not using a computer (a strange accusation). When it turned out that his well-known mobility problem is part of the reason, what do they do? Change the subject by quoting him out of context. Watch the painful exchange:

They don’t even have an answer. They don’t even try. They just pivot and keep on lying.

This is after the wheels started to come off yesterday with Claire McCaskill, one of Obama’s national Co-Chairs arguing that people shouldn’t vote for McCain because he is old and has had cancer.

These people are trying to talk about running a dishonorable and sleazy campaign? These guys could write the book on it.

    He didn’t come across very well, did he?

    BTW, are you guys watching Palin on Fox? She’s PHENOMENAL!

    …that McCain doesn’t care enough about veterans, once again evoking the long debunked Obama Senate floor statement that McCain thought the Webb bill for the GI Bill was too generous.

    They’ve been accusing a decorated war veteran of being uncaring of the troops and of veterans since before the general election even began… and they have the gall to whine about the most dishonest campaign in history over an add over a possible slight and noting a bill that required teaching STD prevention to kindergartners?

    I was extremely annoyed before, but at this point I’m furious at these yahoos. Their whining is falling on deaf ears over here.

    This is a sign of desperation. The Democrats and the Obama campaign thought John McCain would roll over like a dead dog. They also thought this “out of touch” label would stick but when McCain chose Sarah Palin that label went down quicker than Jenna Jamison. After all, Palin is the most in touch of all three candidates.

    As for Claire McCaskill, she’s about as relevant as the two Cory’s.

    Never fear for reasonable Americans reject dirty politics and deceit. And deceived they have my friend, deceived they have.

    Democrats always count their chickens before they hatch and always end up on the losing end. When are they going to learn?

    the article where McCain says he is learning how to use the computer, but they always forget that Cindy does all of the typing for him.

    Reading comprehension isn’t the strongest with these folks.

    before the pitcher has even delivered the ball! Keep it up Obama (The One) because you’re only helping out McCain/Palin.

    I was out of town and only caught pieces of the ABC Palin interview. I was a little concerned before she did the interview, but I was very happy to see her fire back her answers so well.

    Gibson tried to nail her on her “God” and war remarks and she nuanced him away.

    She is one smart governor and I have no doubt now that she will chew Joe up in their debate in October.

      I’d like to read the NYT and SF Chronicle articles that this smug douche bag is referring to and draw my own conclusion. I haven’t found it.

    …these appear to be his top five competitive strengths, according to the best and brightest minds on Team Obama:

    1. Barry is young!
    2. Barry can type!
    3. Barry can text his bff!
    4. Barry is loved by the Germans (and the French)!
    5. Obamanomics says it’s good to tax the rich, except when we’re in an economic downturn because that would hurt the economy. Better to wait until some other time to hurt the economy.

    It seems the lords at Youtube don’t want this video seen, and have therefore removed it from the web. Can we see it somewhere else.

    …Biden was on the (dead end) trail today practicing his same old esophagul defecation.

    Who is he so afraid of offending?? He continues to say, “one nation, indivisible”.

    He refuses to say “under God” for some reason? I wonder whats going on with this? There has got to be a reason other than the fact that he’s anti – American.

    Dear Senator McCain:
    You dishonor yourself by approving recent media commercials filled with deception, half truths and outright lies. You are NOT a man of Presidential character.

    • Tbone

      I mean, it’s not like I can be interested in your intellect of which you apparently have little.

          • mbecker908

            And I must say, given the above comment, wherever you’ve been you ain’t lost anything.

            Welcome back. Stick around. It’s a lonely place without you. Decent curmudgeons are hard to find :>).

          • itrytobenice

            This just helped me remember why.

          • Tbone

            I did consider changing my handle to itrynottogetbanned in your honor.

            BTW, can anyone link to the definition of the word “respectful”. I am not familiar with that which I am now exhorted to be.

          • itrytobenice

            and riot in the interwebs if you ever got banned. :)

            And I got your definition of respectful right here (and you’re doing just fine. As a matter of fact, you’re a master):
