I have to agree with the author. Now is the time. Not again should be our mantra. I want to see the urgency of now that he keeps talking about in his eyes.

The shine is quickly coming off the Palin turd. Let that happen, without giving McCain some ridiculous OMFG!SEXIST!! excuse to change the course.. I think people are too eager for Obama to punch back. Play rope-a-dope for a while...and for God's sake, don't even mention Palin for several days.

Please, can you all stop sucking Obama's junk long enough to breathe? The lack of oxygen is making you folks more retarded.

Obama is definitely too much of a wuss to be President.

Thank god you showed up to smarten up the thread!!

Obama is definitely too much of a wuss to be President.

John McCain canceled an interview with Larry King because his spokesman was asked a question, and the reporter wouldn't let him dodge it. Who's a wuss?

Larry King...who cares about that fossil?

I don't. I just want to know why McCain's afraid of him. Why is McCain too much of a pussy to go on the King of Softball?

It is the whole CNN network that caused it. They are not as bad as MSNBC, but they are close.

By asking his spokesman a question? Isn't that what they're supposed to do? It might make sense to fire Tucker Bounds for being a bumbling ass, but what did poor li'l Larry do?

Seriously, the guy can't handle Larry King, but he's fit to be President?...scary shiat.

McCain got pwned on the View lol!!!!

Obama faces down O'Reilly

Let McCain come on Olbermann or Palin on Maddow's show.

Wanna be Mavericks? quit acting like Bush and Cheney and answer hard questions without crying sexism or POW.

i for one am getting really tired of the melodramatic bloggers who freak out every day because obama didn't personally go over and punch mccain in the face that day.

yesterday was a horrible day for mccain. but you can find fault with anything if you want to.

There was an extra "you" that somehow appeared in that sentence.

 
Dread Pirate Slasher 2008-09-13 03:03:13 PM  
C'mon Obama, just say the obvious. McCain is too old and stupid to be POTUS and Palin is a dumb coont who needs to stay in the kitchen makin sammiches.

 
NeverDrunk23 2008-09-13 03:19:11 PM  
If people are 'freaking out' and acting 'outraged' over Obama saying a common line with lipstick and a pig, what can he say? Hell, he got blamed for bloggers attacking Palin for the baby thing. People are so damn busy turning every single effing thing he says into a negative that I'm not surprised that he has to be cautious. He is dealing with rabid nay-sayers who have a mindset of a child.

I'd love for an interviewer to start with this: "Welcome, Senator McCain. Now, our viewers are all very aware of your status as a P.O.W. I have great respect for your sacrifice. Since that part of your history is well established, I'm not going to ask you any questions pertaining to it. Therefore, I would ask that you don't answer any of my questions by referring to it."

Obama IS striking back. And very effectively. He's using McCain's own words to attack McCain's integrity.

That's a good take, because McCain has demonstrated he'd rather lose his integrity than lose an election. His sleazy campaign proves it.

I'm awful sad that "cocksucker" is used more frequently to describe a bad man. I think it should be used to describe a good woman.

ROTFLMAO - that's rich coming from a campaign that bawled to the media and cried "SEXISM" when obama used the phrase "lipstick on a pig" even though mccain himself used the phrase, and from a right wing that claims obama is insulting mccain by saying he doesn't know how to use a computer when mccain had his typing fingers chewed off by the vietnamese - even though mccain himself has claimed he can't use a computer.

wuss? riiiiight. your candidates are so farking thin-skinned, they wouldn't last ten minutes at a third-grade recess let alone a presidential campaign. face it: the palin/mccain ticket is pussified beyond recognition.

more manufactured outrage from the right wing PC patrol.


but people being fired for calling a coworker "attractive and successful African-American" is proof the liberals are destroying our freedom.

It's just going to get uglier around here on fark.

For a couple of weeks McCain supporters actually thought their candidate had a chance.

They're not going to watch that slip away again without throwing the mother of all hissy fits.

Its just Fark gods messing with us. I mean, they ARE Farkers as well. This should all die down and the other accounts disappear for another 2 or 4 years when the next major election comes up.

I really, really hope.

I love this sober assessment from Matt Damon. (new window) (I must of missed it when it first came around)

And BTW -- Greenspan just came out and voiced his opinion...Greenspan: Country can't afford McCain's tax cuts (new window)

Obama better do something.

He's gonna look like the biggest loser in the history of the universe if he loses to McLame.

But there's a real upside if he does blow it.

The Bob Shrum "I'm a nice guy" form of dem champaigning will really be exposed as a total joke.

Along with the moderates.

shiat as a lefty I'm almost ready to vote for grandpa myself if it will get rid of these wishy washy dems.

This.

And this is exactly what Obama is doing, and has done. The "lipstick on a pig" was classic rope-a-dope, with the McCain campaign and conservatives being the dopes.

McCain criticizing Obama for saying that McCain's campaign was putting lipstick on the pig of Bush's failed policies, when McCain himself had used that very phrase to describe Hillary Clinton, shows McCain's own lack of integrity. It's like McCain decided he'd rather lose his integrity than lose an election. That's a shame. McCain used to have some honor, before he became a Bush-clone.
