Biden: If Elected, The World Will Test Obama With A Crisis

SEATTLE, WA — Joe Biden says he’s certain that if Barack Obama is elected president, there will be an international crisis to test his strength within the first 6 months of his presidency.

“Mark my words. It will not be six months before the world tests Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy. The world is looking. We’re about to elect a brilliant 47-year-old senator president of the United States of America.” he told a fundraising crowd in the Pacific Northwest on Sunday. “Remember I said it standing here if you don’t remember anything else I said. Watch, we’re gonna have an international crisis, a generated crisis, to test the mettle of this guy.”

“He’s gonna have to make some really tough - I don’t know what the decision’s gonna be, but I promise you it will occur. As a student of history and having served with seven presidents, I guarantee you it’s gonna happen.”

The Delaware Senator made similar remarks at a San Francisco fundraiser the day before. “We’re going to face a major international challenge. Because they’re going to want to test him, just like they did young John Kennedy. They’re going to want to test him. And they’re going to find out this guy’s got steel in his spine,” Biden said. He told the crowd to continue to stand by Obama and know they made the right choice even when the going gets tough.

The Democratic VP nominee has talked about the difficult environment the next president, no matter who he is, will step into — calling it the toughest since the Great Depression — but never before suggested that Obama in particular would be tested because of who he is.

The RNC and the McCain campaign both jumped on the remarks - with the McCain campaign claiming Biden guaranteed an international crisis in the event of an Obama election. South Carolina Senator and top McCain adviser Lindsey Graham already used the remark against the Obama campaign while introducing the Arizona Senator this morning.

In response, Biden spokesman David Wade says “Sen. Biden was making it clear that history has shown Presidents face challenges starting on day one, and with our nation fighting two wars and 21st century threats abroad, we know that we need steady leadership in tumultuous times, not the erratic lurching and stubborn ideology of John McCain.”

Listen to the audio of Biden’s full Seattle remarks here — the comments in question are about 10 minutes in.

Well Senator Biden your new boss has already made some decisions that are going to cost us for
the forseable future. LIke the expenditure of Hundreds of Billions of dollars that neither the tax payers or the country have at this time. There will shortly be a tax burden of $1.6 Trillion for new Health Care. THen there will be how many billions or trillions in redistributed dollars for the middle class of the country. Yea Joe we are in for a HUGE test and I hope that the supporters of You and Sen Obama don’t mind the peanuts that you are throwing their way for the support of taking addition dollars and freedoms from the rest of the country.

 
Comment by TJune

Of course there will be some sort of test - I am just concerned it will be of the terrorist type. After all the leaders of many of the terrorist organizations have expressed that they want Obama to win. The terrorist see him as a pushover, he won’t do anything but issue a few statements about how we should focus on the USA and not what is going on in the middle east. If we do fall under another attack I bet all you Obama supporters will be sorry!

 
Comment by nancy

WELL WITH ALL THE “BABY-SITTERS” MAYBE WE WON’T GET NUKED. Having Biden and Barry incharge is enough to make my skin crawl. They are already costing us money and Barry doesn’t even know where the Whitehouse bathroom is. What next! People need to get out there and vote for a man that knows the world that would be the old guy, the one with experience, good character and not known as the “Messiah”. I already voted for McCain, use your heads, don’t vote guilt or color.

 
Comment by KCM

Biden’s comments are only further reason why Americans should vote for McCain. Do we really want Obama in the White House when another terrorist attack happens?? I can’t imagine anything more frightening than Obama having to make such important decisions.

 
Comment by Robert G In Bristol

All the more reason to vote McCain-Palin.

 
Comment by ShawnW

It’s like football. Whenever you got a rookie defensive back covering a veteran receiver, the offense will attack that defensive back. In most instances, the defensive back gets beat for the touchdown. America will be the defense and Obama the defensive back. Should we really put such an inexerienced person on the field? Should this desire for change be worth giving up two touchdowns and taking a loss? We can’t afford to lose to countries like Iran or North Korea. I say we need an experienced defensive back on the field. Let Obama stay on the sidelines and “talk” to the enemey. Let’s suit McCain up and ensure a solid defense.

 
Comment by ladycajun12

From the lips of Biden himself!!!! An Obama presidency will endanger America immediately!! Even the world knows of his incompetence. What I can’t figure out is how come Americans haven’t figured this out. . . .DUH.

 
Comment by Lynn

Sounds like Senator Binden is saying, vote for McCain and keep the U.S. out of another world crisis. There you go again, Joe. Thanks for the endorsement.

 
Comment by greg

News to the Obama/Biden camp, we are in a crisis now. Biden’s remark is just one more reason to vote for McCain/Palin. We don’t need a “brillant senator” to react to a crisis in six months.

 
Comment by Randy

If Obama is elected, the middle class will become the new upper class after the current upper class is taxed out of existance in a single year to pay for Obama’s new socialist programs. The following year, the “new upper class” which is currently the middle class will be the target of Obama’s new tax increases.

 
Comment by Terri V

Politicians must really be a breed all their own. It has not been very long ago that Joe Biden and Hillary and Bill Clinton had nothing good to say about Obama. Not only nothing good, but a lot of bad things like, “He’s not ready to be President and I stand by my statement”, and “What a fairy tale. Give me a break!” And there’s the famous line from Hillary, “I know the experience I would bring to the Presidency, and the many years of experience John McCain would bring to the Presidency, and Barack Obama has a speech he gave”. How do these peoples opinions change so drastically overnight to the point they are supposedly at now? Do any of them have real feelings or opinions, or are they just spewing out whatever rhetoric works at the moment?

 
Comment by ES

Oh, Lord, that sealed it. I’m am driving to my CA county registrars office right now to vote for McCain. Thanks Joe you pushed me out the door.

 
Comment by ram215

I would worry about this!

Everyone should check out Frank Marshall Davis and his relationship to the almighty one Obama. You can Google Frank Marshall Davis, the friends that Obama picks is as pathetic as an American. It is no wonder he does not want to wear the American Flag and why Michael Obama said this is the first time in her life she is proud to be an American, because her husband is running for office (read who Frank Marshall Davis really is). He also states the name Frank in his book “Dreams of My Father”. Why so many Americans are are so blind?

 
Comment by Jim Rice

Once again, Joe, the TRUTH will set you free! Unfortunately, I would expect exactly the same lame response of his Democratic predessor after being tested NUMEROUS times prior to this country taking it directly on the chin in 2001.

Your candidate will be tested because of his extraordinarily strong APPEASEMENT mentality allowing for our enemies to once again bring the war to our shore. Yet another reason this country needs the leadership of someone who has REPEATEDLY been tested and NEVER broken.

Yes, please continue to compare an Obama response to a McCain response, I DARE YOU.

 
Comment by Cindy

This is just unbelievable! A “generated” international crisis? I wonder which one of his foreign supporters, who have contributed millions to his presidential campaign, is coordinating this crisis with him? I’m sure it will be a “fair and honest” test, especially since it is “generated”! Biden’s comments should give the McCain campaign some excellent points to use to prove that Obama is untruthful, devious and definitely not ready to be the Commander in Chief.

 
Comment by George

How’s he gonna’ meet this “international crisis” if he runs down the military? Cut their funding to give more to people who don’t work. Huh? How’s he gonna’ do that?

As for David Wade’s comments, McCain’s steadfastness, loyalty and support for our military is a matter of record; stubborness is often required in making the right decisions. It’s Obama who is erratic. Says one thing one week and something else the next. Sat in church of 20 years and didn’t hear a thing the pastor said. Serves on Board with Ayers but doesn’t know the man; starts campaign in Ayers house but doesnt’ know the man. ETC., ETC.

 
Comment by Bryant

so, to avoid this obvious danger…the U.S. should not vote Obama for POTUS….? Sounds like good idea to me. Take Senator Biden’s word for it. He probably “borrowed” the statement from someone…so that’s at least two people believing it…..

 
Comment by Renee

Senator Biden is correct. Unfortunately, there will be crisis to test Obama if he is elected. He will not be able to vote present when it happens, and such crisis will be his undoing. That is, if the scandal surrounding his campaign donations does not do him in first. Wake up people-$150 million in one month-he will be a bought president if elected and God only knows the price tag.

 
Comment by Jeannie

No doubt about it BIDEN: Your leader will allow terrorists to infiltrate America once again and then he’ll meet them for tea to discuss it.

 
Comment by Donna

I guess Biden means that Obama has already negotiated a crisis with Iraq while he was committing the treasonous act of trying to convince them NOT to negotiate with the sitting president.

 
Comment by ladycajun12

From the lips of Biden himself. . . .An Obama presidency will endanger the lives of Americans immediately!!! Even the world knows of his incompetence; why haven’t we caught on yet?????

 
Comment by Ken

I’ve been saying for many, many months that if Obama is elected it will spell certain doom for our nation and the world. Thank you Joe Biden for calling out your future president. Joe biden said during his presidential run that Obama was not presidential material and was not fit or ready to lead. This proves it.

 
Comment by custerjs

So if OBAMA is eleceted “we’re gonna have an international crisis”. I thought the world “loved” OBAMA??? I have to admit…THIS SCARES ME!!!!

Comment by carla lemon

with all these warnings of an obama presidency even from his own running mate, what more do we need. in this troubling finacial times do we really need to add an international security crisis too. also does this mean sen biden is saying things are going to get dramatically worse if we elect sen obama

 
Comment by maaaa

This first poster is an idiot. What is wrong with tax relief for the middle class. Redistribution of wealth means THE TOP (?) 10 PERCENT (who do not pay their fair share) WILL PAY THEIR FAIR SHARE OF TAXES.

complaining about taxes, not paying your taxes, not paying your fair share of taxes makes you UN-AMERICAN!

 
Comment by suehal

Perhaps Sen. Biden is referring to the American voters that Obama will let down when he doesn’t do all he promised, during the campaign, to do on DAY ONE-he said these things to get votes and then he won’t follow thru.

 
Comment by Vote Mcain-Palin

How motivating is that statement to vote for Obama ,wow Biden has truley lost it! Only confirms my support for Mccain,the world wouldn’t dare test Mccain!

 
Comment by Don

Uh - yeah. Something he can’t talk his way out of.

And when the guy falls on his face and America is in the cross-hairs - what then Joe?

You sick twisted idiot. You said this dolt was not ready for prime time but then you drank the kool-aid and now look at you - a moron talking out of both sides of your mouth.

 
Comment by Tim

to charlie,

sure Obama will need 1.6 trillion for his helthcare plan, but McCain will need 1.3 trillion, and McCains plan increase the amount of uninsured by 20 million while barack will actually get healthcare to people who don’t have it.

So spend les money to cause more problems, or spend more money to get it right. You get what you pay for

 
Comment by tracy

the potential vice president is already telling the American people that these are not the worst of times… that it will be disastrous effects if Obama is elected and still so many will not listen! What’s it gonna take for people to understand the consequences for there actions? We need protection not only from Obama from the world around us and the only way that is possible is to cast your vote for McCain!!!! WAKE UP, PEOPLE… BEFORE IT’S TOO LATE

 
Comment by Greg

Most likely his first crisis will occur when he can no longer use the courts to block the release of his actual birth certificate records and the public finds out he wasn’t legally qualified to even run for office, let alone be elected.

Comment by Tom

Well, I don’t know how many times you have to hear the stupid, and unfortunately very honest, comments of Obama and Biden, but if this modern-day Laurel and Hardy duo doesn’t scare the living daylights out of you, then apparently nothing will. I only hope everyone is paying close attention. First Obama’s associatons are suspect, then his remarks to Joe the Plumber were very revealing, and now Broadway Joe’s prediction of an international crisis. But have no fear! Obama will talk to everyone and fix everything!

 
Comment by janet

i think Joe Biden is right and that is why we need John McCain running our country and if not then god help us all Obama wouldn’t no how run a chicken house,

 
Comment by Nancy Geisenburg

If we already know that an Obama win will cause chaos, then why elect him?

 
Comment by Greg

“maaaa”. If paying your fair share of taxes is the measure of being patriotic, does that mean that the 43% of Americans who do not pay any taxes are unpatriotic?

 
Comment by Tim

History shows that Obama has better judgement than McCain! Obama is married to his first and only wife, McCain has had two. Obama has never been investigated for Political Corruption or Abuse of Power, but McCain and Palin have! Obama has never had a sexual affair, but McCain and Palin have. Obama has never betrayed America, McCain confessed to being a War Criminal and Palin wanted Alaska to become it’s own Country. Obama has worked with Republicans Chuck Hagel and Dick Lugar to protect our country, while McCain pals around with Democrat Joe Liberman. Republican after Republican is endorsing Obama, while even Republicans shun McCain for his liberal background. Obama picked an Educated and Experienced Biden to be VP, McCain picked a former beauty queen with a degree in Journalism? Journalism? lol

 
Comment by Tim

-SAME THING HAPPENED TO BUSH ON 9-11, 9 Months after he took office! Same thing will happen if McCain won!

 
Comment by Maryanne

Another Liberal Ploy
Just like the announcement of the major economic crisis (remember there was rumor about an announcement around October 5 that would impact the election favorably for the democrats) which was a political scam to drive up support for the democrats (this problem did not happen overnight, but the announcement was perfectly planned for just prior to the election) this comment by Biden is another ploy to make people feel that Obama can take care of us economically as well as being able to handle anything that threatens our security. I am sure Obama will be able handle anything that threatens our security, because he can negotiate unconditionally with his friends in the mid-east, and just hand us over to them.

 
Comment by Sleepless-N-Cali

I’m a Obama supporter and I jus realized Biden’s comments have come after a long day freebasing and hanging out with Al-K-Hall…there’s noway that he can take his foot out of his mouth on this comment…however, I did see the Obama campaign pick up a good trait from the McCain camp…completely twist a rediculous comment into something heart-felt and good…i.e. thousands of Palin and McCain gaffes…haha

I’m Still On the Obama Team 08

 
Comment by Camille

Great! Even Biden is afraid of the “in the job training” this guy is going to have to do. If he wins we will be the joke of the world! We do not need someone without experience like Obama specially when he has shown that he can only vote “Present” most of the time. We are facing very serious problems as a nation and Obama is not the right person for the job. He needs to go get a resume and then comeback to run for anything.

 
Comment by ES

In the time it took for my comment to post, I drove to my county registrars office and voted McCain. Polls in CA are open Monday-Friday 8-5, and on Saturdays too. I could not wait. Google your county registrars office for your local polling hours. Vote early, but remember to only vote once!

 
Comment by Tim

Can anyone on this comment board tell me anything good about McCain?

Or are all of you voting for McCain because you are AFRAID of Obama?

People are always AFRAID of what they do not understand. Maybe you wouldn’t be AFRAID of Obama if you would take the time to research his life and policies.

Nah, you are far too busy watching “the biggest loser” then to be American and vote with knowledge.

How CHILLING! If my husband had all the terrorist, American hating friends and associates Obama has, he would never be able to obtain his high level security clearance to perform his duties in the U.S. Submarine Force… Why would ANY American want a Commander-in-Chief who couldn’t obtain a security clearance?!

Obama just cannot be trusted! Be very afraid, America. Get smart and vote McCain/Palin!!

 
Comment by Jim

Did anyone think about their comments before posting them??

Do any of you REALLY think terrorists are afraid of McCain? And do you really think they would announce they were pro-Obama thinking that that would get the Americans onboard to elect Obama?

And you really think Obama’s campaign is financed from overseas?

McCain’s reactions are knee-jerk and erratic. Our friends overseas will be much more afraid of McCain than the terrorists will be. Additionally, with his age and his medical history, McCain is statistically unlike to live out his first term. Do any of you really think that Gov. Palin will be able to lead the country in a crisis?

The one thing about democracy… the people do end up getting what they deserve.

Comment by LostDemocracy

Obama just said at the rally that nobody should be able to deduct mortgage interest from 7 homes. Guess what Barack, You can only deduct it from one residence. I think he was trying to take a swipe at McCain. When Obama is a president, he will tell you how many homes one should have, how much money you should have and what exactly are you allowed to say. And who said USSR is dead. Obama will resurrect it, except it will not be in Russia, but here. God help us all.

I DON’T QUESTION THE FACT THAT OBAMA WILL BE TESTED IN THE FIRST 6 MONTHS OF HIS PRESIDENCY. HE WILL BE SUCKED IN BY THE BERMUDA TRIANGLE. PUTIN, SHAVEZ AND AHMADINEJAD.

News to the Obama/Biden camp, we are in a crisis now. Biden’s remark is just one more reason to vote for McCain/Palin. We don’t need a “brillant senator” to react to a crisis in six months.
————————————————————————————————————
Uh…Greg, you said “brillant” the guy with the 130 i.q.? My husband has that and is an attorney and I don’t consider him brilliant. Crisis, bet Obama can’t unclog a toliet. The only brilliance Obama has shown is to lie to people like you and give you white guilt, I know you’re white ’cause your name is “greg”. This messiah ran on the SOCIALIST TICKET IN ILLINOIS TO GET ELECTED. YOU WANT SOCIALISM AND PAY FOR ALL THE LOSERS..HAVE AT IT. This obama has NO military experience, if we get a suitcase bomb and it’s your town, don’t complain. Obama depends on the poor and the scared and the ignorant for his votes. He promises heaven to the masses because they want something to believe in, I thnk they just ought to go to church because this Obama is not of good character and cannot be trusted to protect anything.

Comment by Jay W.

If the world is going to test Obama, if he is elected, like Biden says, then why should we elect him?

 
Comment by Tom

So let me see if I have this right- Biden says “Time to get on board, time to be patriotic” by paying higher taxes, but Obama says he is going to give a tax “break” to 95% of Americans. Well, if I do the math correctly, and 40% of Americans do not already pay any taxes, then the answer is “welfare”. OK, now I understand. It is very clear to me that the media is incompetent since they seem too interested in what newspaper Sarah Palin reads, but could care less about Obama’s associations, lack of a real birth certificate, etc. Every time you turn on the TV, Obama has yet another questionable tie to a suspicious person. By the way, can anyone please explain to me why I cannot find Obama’s college thesis online?

 
Comment by nancy

“maaaa”. If paying your fair share of taxes is the measure of being patriotic, does that mean that the 43% of Americans who do not pay any taxes are unpatriotic? this was from our “greg”
=========================================================

There is always the chance that a certain percentage are just bums. Patriotic your Obama isn’t partiotic for god’s sake. He wants to change our national anthem to the “coca cola” song, it was his own words. The guy is brain damaged from drugs, then there’s biden brain damaged from his strokes. Holy Cow! What a twosome!! Hope there’s no nukes on their way as Biden insinuated.

Comment by suehal

I guess the attacks on 9/11 were a mere inconvenience to Sen. Biden-he seems to have forgotten them. Sen. Biden is showing himself to not be very diplomatic and I wonder what Mr. Powell thinks of this pontificating baffonery. Just how can Sen. Biden guarantee an attack if Sen. Obama is elected-doesn’t give one confidence-it leaves one scratching their head is wonderment. This must be the transformation that Mr. Powell was referring to.

 
Comment by ILLINOIS BILL

Biden speaking the way he is it just sounds to me as if he wants a crises to arise. Is he telling the aggressor to get ready just in case Obama wins.
Being Joe Biden it would not surprise me in the least.

Here is another thought but Biden is not saying it. If McCain is elected there will not be a crises. All will be calm because the World knows that John McCain will not stand still

This is the reason we have to put John McCain in the White House and Clean out the Lifers in Congress.

 
Comment by LostDemocracy

I don’t pay attention to polls. I am shocked how close McCain is, despite the fact that our press has been trying to brainwash us for months with pro-Obama mantra. So much for democracy in this country. Controlled and biased press was a tool used in the propaganda machine in USSR.
Once Obama finally grabs the white house with his ‘SPREAD THE WEALTH AROUND’ dogma, socialism will be guaranteed. Except this time it will have the influence of Rev. Right, Ayer and Farakkan.

 
Comment by Caroline Miniscule

I listened to Rush Limbaugh on the way to a museum earlier today, and heard him comment about this. Drove home and got on my computer expecting it to be in all the headlines… but nope, only Fox news is reporting it. Every other “drive by media” is talking about Powell’s endorsement of Obama. (And I’ve got to tell you I’m bummed by that. I would have voted for Powell! Well, at least his son is supporting McCain…

 
Comment by ES

to tim-fightthesmears.com is a website run by liberals…Oh and by the way there are 2 different birth certificates from 2 different hospitals in HI. The birth record in question has been tied up in court by Obama along with his health and college records. These have never been made public. There are now 5 states(including HI) that have currently have actions proceeding in court asking Obama to release these records.

 
Comment by Carol McColgan

Someone should put a muzzle on Biden–that was about the most stupid statement anyone could have made. Please Mr. Biden don’t compare Obama with John Kennedy–HE’S NOT JOHN KENNEDY! And never will be–working under 7 presidents has taken its toll on Biden.

 
Comment by Brenda Fazzini

my goodness, Joe Biden might have just lost alot of votes with his comments..why wouldn’t we select a President that is NOT going to be tested b/c the world knows him and what he would do.
Wake up americans!!!!

 
Comment by fred

Much better that the US be tested with Obama in charge rather than McCain….

Let’s see, McCain’s entire military career was one of failure, no command leadership, ran away from his crippled wife, no time in private industry except as a beer salesman for his father in law, no major legislative accomplishments in 26 years except for McCain Finegold which hasn’t worked, supported invading the wrong country after 9/11, thinks paying protection money in Iraq (the surge) is a good idea, chose a weather girl as running mate as a fop to the wingnuts in his party, and supported a socialist bailout of the credit market.

Doesn’t the republican party have any intelligent, experienced or moral people to run for office? First Reagan, then the Bush’s, now McCain offer a credible candidate please.

 
Comment by qwertcv

You think they will test Obama? Of course they will, just as happens to every new President.

But just try putting mcCain in. He’ll be tested even more because he’ll react in such a way that there is so much more of a ju-jitsu effect against America. More “bang” for the buck”. With Obama, who is more calm and reasoned and deliberate, not so much.

 
Comment by Jane

The test will be when Farrakhan’s new Nation of Islam Mosque opens in Chicago with its radical Black views and radical Islam views (please check the website it is frightening his plan if Obama is elected). He has called Obama “the Messiah” and is anxiously awaiting his election so they can enact their DOCTRINE……this is no lie…..check out the website….
Taxes seem the least of our worries when you read this radical overtake of our way of life…..
Of course, again, Obama is front and center…..oh but he doesn’t know anything..yea right…

 
Comment by Tom

Tim,

You are an idiot. But you are correct about everyone being afraid of Obama, and we have many good reasons to be afraid. Bill Ayers the terrorist, a bunch of radical priests, his wife the socialist, no experience, ACORN, community organizer (whatever that is), his middle name, etc. I can go on and on if you want me to.

 

[...] international stage if Barack Obama is elected President, to test his mettle. You can listen here: http://embeds.blogs.foxnews.com/2008/10/20/biden-if-elected-the-world-will-test-obama-with-a-crisis... to hear and audio of the comments which occur at 10:15 into the [...]

 
Comment by Jane

You need to visit Farrakhan’s plan for America when Obama is elected on his website for “The Nation of Islam” Mosque opening in Chicago. In their doctrine they not only want the black America to separate but they will implement the Islamic teachings as well, and all the white and Jews might as well forget freedom…..
This is the same man who called Obama “The Messiah”. So all of America needs to visit this website, examine the Doctrine, and maybe this association will WAKE YOU UP!!!!
Taxes seem the least of our worries when you read this revelation…..
Maybe that is what Biden is warning…..by the way he gets a pass on every goof he makes…
They want him to be VP?????

 
Comment by Tom

Maryanne,

You are right about Obama handing us over to the enemy- because he is one of them.

 
Comment by Seth

Wow, folks have really got to cut back on the McCain Kool-Aid.

Biden’s trying to make the point that Obama would be ready for anything. The next President is going to be tested no matter who is elected. Ever read up on what the Soviet Union wanted to throw at a washed up B-movie actor named Ronald Reagan? I’m sure many of our enemies would love to get McCain in White House, because with his history of skin cancer there’s a distinct possibility he may not make it through his first term. And then guess who we get? The unbelievably un-prepared Governor of Alaska. The mere thought of her in the White House scares the heck out of me.

The point Biden was trying to make — and the point that apparently went WAY over everybody’s head here — is that the world is going to test any President and that Obama’s going to have to face them just like anyone else. And that Obama’s got a spine of steel. Did anyone notice that he didn’t say “Obama’s going to be tested and McCain isn’t”? And for those of you who believe that Obama is going to ‘manufacture’ an international crisis … well, you are probably the same type of person who believes the US and Israel pulled off 9/11. Just put your tin foil hat back on and enjoy your conspiracy-laden universe.

In any event, I’d _much_ rather have a team made of up Obama-Biden-Powell-Buffett and the other excellent people Obama has surrounded himself with and who have made their support of his candidacy publicly-known.

You all are seriously reaching on this one.

I will tell you something positive about Sen McCain. You can trust him with your life, I Did and I am still here. I also know that the country can trust him since he has worked a whole heck of a lot longer for the country than Barack Obama has worked against it.

It is just amazing to me how anyone in this country can ask what John McCain stands for and against. I just hope on the 4th of November that folks remember what this country stands for.

McCain’s Health care $1.3 Trillion over ten years.
Obama Health Care $1.6 Trillion over ten years.

Job Growth = McCain
Job Losses = Obama

Companies moving overseas - Obama
Companies growing here - McCain

Obama should release his birth certificate to prove he is a naturalized citizen

He might not even be qualified to be our president.

This is not right.
