Obama accuses McCain camp of lies, phony outrage
Obama pleads, "So spare me the phony outrage, spare me the phony talk about change. We have real problems in this country right now. The American people are looking to us for answers, not distractions, not diversions, not manipulations."

But Republicans love distractions, diversions and manipulations! That's their stock in trade. Why throw in a winning hand? they reason. What did following the rules - or the Constitution, for that matter - ever do for them? They're in it for their cronies, not that old tired constituency, we, the People.


Poll Finds World Wants Obama for President
Oh, who cares what the world wants? The world wanted Saddam out of Iraq, too, and what did that get them? Oh, yeah. Invaded. Well, it can't happen here, even if our rulers eat the entire Consitution, jail all dissenters and torture tree-huggers. Why? Because we are the leader of the free world.
