Re: Obama on Afghanistan............oops
Thu, May 15, 2008 - 11:33 AMThis is a pretty minor gaffe. It will get much worse if Obama really goes head to head with McCain.
This is why there is still hope for Clinton - there are actually many Democrats who think we need a candidate with a firm grasp of the vast array of policy issues that a president ideally has readily available between his or her ears.
I almost think that the media might continue to play softball with Obama during the general election in order to help him win - because he will be a lot of fun for them to kick around for four years.

How about McSame
"It's common knowledge and has been reported in the media that Al-Qaeda is going back into Iran and receiving training and are coming back into Iraq. That's well known," the 71-year-old Vietnam war veteran said.
Pressed by reporters about his allegations, McCain said: "We continue to be concerned about the Iranians taking Al-Qaeda into Iran and training them and sending them back."
It was only after fellow Senator Joe Lieberman, who was traveling with him, whispered into his ear that McCain corrected himself, US media reported.
"I am sorry, the Iranians are training extremists, not Al-Qaeda, not Al-Qaeda, I am sorry," McCain said.

Thu, May 15, 2008 - 5:13 PMHey, Obama didn't need Lieberman to correct him. Even cornel admits they were pretty damn minor. And the much more important point, that we're devoting to resources in Iraq that should have been spent finishing the job in Afghanistan, is completely true even if the bit about agriculutural experts was a brainfart on Obama's part.

If this is the best the rightie nutjobs can do, Obama will have an easier time than I thought. -
