John McCain's... Response.
Edited on Thu Aug-28-08 11:06 PM by FVZA_Colonel
"Tonight, Americans witnessed a misleading speech that was so fundamentally at odds with the meager record of Barack Obama. When the temple comes down, the fireworks end, and the words are over, the facts remain: Senator Obama still has no record of bipartisanship, still opposes offshore drilling, still voted to raise taxes on those making just $42,000 per year, and still voted against funds for American troops in harm's way. The fact remains: Barack Obama is still not ready to be President."


Fuck him.

He's grasping at straws with that statement. He simply cannot meet the caliper of speaking that was just accomplished by out next president, Barrack Obama!

14. They're still trying to go with that "raise taxes for those over 42,000" thing?
I mean that is so easily debunked with even the most superficial fact checking.

15. The panel on MSNBC was sort of laughing at how sad the response was
they were openly wondering if McCain would come up with something better tomorrow. :rofl:

16. Do you have a link? I would love to save it along with the story
that he was going to broadcast a concilliatory note - with the admission that it was for one night only, to congratulate Obama on his accomplishment. It would be interesting to juxtapose those stories. Unless this is just conjecture of what he would likely say, rather than what he said.

Look at how tiny and insignificant these piddling words sound next to Obama's soaring speech.

22. Wouldn't ever want republicans to respond with even an iota
of optimism or hope, would we?

They've always got to be nasty and dishonest.

I'm actually sort of giggling that that's all he's got. LOL! When the "temple" comes down? So Bush had a temple at his convention in 2004, huh?

:rofl:

24. The response should be..
"I'm screwed."

Seriously, these are the same lies that Obama disproved in the speech.

38. "So fundamentally at odds . . ."
So at odds that what? They just left that sentence hanging. Must have been written in a bit of a fluster.
