Where no smear hurled at the Pres. will really hit its mark. I don't know why. Just a feeling. Like his birthday. They want to taunt him about that. But he has established a level of accomplishment, class, cool, dignity, composure, that is becoming almost impossible for those idiots to penetrate. Sure he and his campaign will still make mistakes. But now the economic data, his record abroad (though it's been too hawkish for my tastes...yet it has essentially accomplished it's goals), his personal charisma... He's hitting on all 4 nows. I don't see how he backslides before election, even with the inevitable unforced - and forced - errors!

exactly what he said, but you know those pesky neocons. It could take the form of emergency bullshit instead of loud-mouthed blather.

You know that they are must be foaming at the mouth at him about that. And the CFA thing was just the opening volley on their other favorite whipping post. Coming from a fundie pulpit near you, and every hate radio Goebbels they can afford.

More misdirection and projection, with the periodic outright lie thrown in. They got nothin'.
