Obama makes rare downstate Illinois visit to inspect flood zone and sandbag. UPDATE McCain on Midwest floods
Since he's been running for president, Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.), the presumptive Democratic nominee, has not spent much time in Illinois. On Saturday, Obama visits Quincy, Ill. to inspect Illinois flood damage and help load sandbags-- realizing that dealing with the flood stricken Midwest is a national issue. How a president deals with these massive emergencies--and avoid another Katrina mess-- will be part of the 2008 presidential conversation.
ARLINGTON, VA -- U.S. Senator John McCain today issued the following statement on the flooding in the Midwest:
"Our thoughts and prayers go out to all those impacted by the flooding throughout the Midwest. Cindy and I would like to extend our sympathies to all those who have lost loved ones, and stand ready to help those in the Midwest to recover and rebuild."
So let's see if I've got this right--Obama, who is after all a Senator from Illinois, makes a grandstanding trip to a flood area to get his picture taken with a shovel, and that makes him better than McCain?
God I wonder what it's like inside that creepy brain of yours.

Unlike Bush, and unlike Obama, McCain would probably fall over and croak if he ever had to pick up a shovel, and dig, even if it was for a photo op.
I doubt his hands, and Cindy's hands, have ever had their hands dirtied by anything other than the bacteria on the face of printed hundred dollar bills.
Yeah, Wes, Typical McCain. He's never given anything of himself in the service of his country.
The irony of that blog is that it's Obama that looks like the cheap political photo opportunist. Once again you try and fool everyone with your sensational BS headlines.

Oh yes, he did give and that is good. However, there is strong evidence that he capitulated to the enemy while a POW.
Do you agree that is a possibility, or not?
Nem, is that you? Did you change SP's or something? Ah, I got it. you must be using a friends computer. Welcome back bud!

"The most difficult subjects can be explained to the most slow-witted man if he has not formed any idea of them already; but the simplest thing cannot be made clear to the most intelligent man if he is firmly persuaded that he knows already, without a shadow of doubt, what is laid before him." Leo Tolstoy, 1897

Yeah it's a possibility. Here's an anology. I give him credit for going to bat though. If you never get up to bat then you can't strike out. If he gave in to repeated torture then maybe he after fouled off 15 pitches he finally struck out. It's easy to sit back after never having to get up or face that pitcher to criticise. Anyway we don't know what happened. Maybe he did give in to the torture.....nah that couldn't be true. We all know that torture never works. Besides, this is all besides the blown "point" Wes tried to make.

Seems to me it's just a bunch of big letter "D"s floating around. I don't think I've met (err cyber met) anyone so partisan. People need to realize that our political salvation is not in the parties - it's with us rising up and making the government ours again and making these career politicians work for us and not their own wallets.

According to McCain he cracked under torture.
You would have done better under torture?
