 Olbermann and Obama on the Lies of the McCain CampaignPosted on Sep 9, 2008
Part one of Keith Olbermann’s interview with Barack Obama focused on the falsehoods of the McCain campaign. As Obama put it: “They’re not telling the truth.” The “Countdown” host followed with a question that’s been uttered once or twice around our own offices: “Why do people hesitate to use the word lie about these things?” Countdown: More on where Olbermann is coming from:

I’ve said it before, and here it is again. Neither candidate, especially McCain, give a rats ass about the “people” unless they can help assure the presidency, their spot in history books and the financial rewards associated with both. That being said, we must do what we can to get Obama into the office to give us even the most remote chance of something better than what W and his morons have provided. If it costs me a little in taxes here and there, so be it!

McCain and Palin claim it’s ok to charge the people of Alaska for her families trip to New York because she saved Alaska money by selling the states airplane and other cost savings…BS
My job includes watching how I spend the companies money and cutting costs where possible. That doesn’t give me the right to pocket some of that money for myself.

Yeah, if it’s not illegal, you can’t criticize about the issue. Especially her staying home for 312 days. It’s not illegal, so why should we question?
Well, maybe if she wasn’t at home all the time she could have foreseen or prevented some of the egregious federal money coming into her state for questionable projects?

We are being cheated people. Cheated out our 1 chance to REALLY make a difference in our children’s lives. McCain talks about change then turns around and hires Steve Schmidt to head his campaign. The same man who ran Bush’s campaign in ‘00. The same man who was behind the smear campaign AGAINST MCCAIN in SC by suggesting his adopted black daughter was really his illegitimate love child!!! Does that matter to McShame? HELL NO!!! Its all about winning now and ALL the stops are being pulled out. Lets face it, at his age (72) this is his last shot at the Oval office and he’s going to do EVERYTHING to acheive his goal. Even run the kind of negative campaign he swore he wouldn’t. Even if it means using Karl Rove behind the scenes. After all, “Bush’s Brain” did such a great job beating him before, didn’t he???
Matter of fact, I think its time to take this criminal out of the equation don’t you?!?
