... Obama told moderator, TW Chair Dick Parsons, in strict 'off the record' session: 'I am the most qualified candidate, in either party, on foreign policy'...

I only consider it a funny ha ha joke 'cause Drudge is reporting it. :)

1. He Got The Iraq War Dead-Nuts Correct At The Start
Which immediately makes him better than two of the three Dem frontrunners.

So, if it's true, I think the fella makes a good point.

2. Ughh...
Edited on Wed Jul-25-07 01:02 PM by jefferson_dem
I saw this on the site and heard some right wing haters chirping about it this morning. It's amazing how unsourced, totally unsubstantiated morsels of partisan drivel can be circulated as if it's the truth.

EDIT: not that he's *not* the most qualified... :bounce:

3. And, if you ask why (and I know you're SO curious) he'll cite his multicultural background
Edited on Wed Jul-25-07 01:05 PM by BeyondGeography
which would be an enormously powerful attribute for an American President to have. Seven years after 9/11, we elect an African-American President whose father was a Muslim. Is this a great country, or what?

Plus, he is a God in East Africa.

4. Right on.
Note that the unsubstantiated quote references "qualifications" rather than "experience."

I agree with your assessment.

5. Did you hear the one about Hillary Clinton?

When Obama said he would meet face-to-face with our foreign adversaries, she admitted to a national audience she would be too afraid to do the same thing.
