Actually, we know so much about it, that we’re tired of hearing about it. His POW experience will be a border line joke by November if they don’t lay off.

You wrote – “What about character assassination in calling Obama a celebrity, when McCain has appeared in more movies and tv show, written best selling books and gone on countless more talk shows that Obama can imagine.”

This is specious. Pointing out the fact of celebrity is not a comment on character, it is a comment on how the media are fawning over Mr. Obama. It also points out, inferentially, that the media, who fawned over McCain in 2000, are hypocritical. McCain, then, was the anti-Bush, thus worthy of their admiration. Now, though McCain maintained his independence – making ardent conservatives uncomfortable – he is smeared with slogans and bromides. McBush, etc.

Even in last night’s speech, Obama did not offer substantive specifics. He did attempt to link the promise of America to socialist ideals. Which is at once both banal and brazen. There is nothing new at all in what he says – he intends to massively expand the welfare state and wants us to believe that it will be paid for only by the “rich.” Linking America’s promise – which flows from liberty and unalienable rights – to his masked but unmistakable Marxism, would be laughable but for its triteness. This is standard Democrat party identity wrapped up in a sparkly package.

Brittney Spears’ set designer and hollywood clebs included.

The fact so many libs have become apoplectic about it (see comments above) means it hit the mark. Obama is an elitist, because he thinks most of us are cretins – that only the intelligentsia are qualified to judge about what is best for us.

McCain does not possess O’s “intellectual” arrogance.

The left have made a fetish out of McCain’s house response, even though he (McCain) pawned it off as a stupid question. (Check with my staff.) The obvious point of the ad is a graphic reminder that the decision of who should be president is much more weighty then to na na over this sort of stuff.

Obama is a hollow, shallow, trivial, unaccomplished pseudo-intellectual snob, who is orgasmic about complexity, but is dumbfounded by the obvious. The presidency is definitely “above his pay grade.”

Rudy Guiliani is to 9/11 as John McCain is to what?

and ¨notverybright¨: ¨pity¨you say? ….are we allowed to say ´bullshit´on this site?

I hope so.

I don’t ever want to hear Republicans criticize ANYBODY for wallowing in victimhood.

A campaign based on pity is an odd thing to behold.
