THIS is how it should be played.....
Love the way he addresses these remarks---slaps them in the face with their own records!



WASHINGTON — Democrat Barack Obama says he'll take no lectures from Republicans on who will keep America safer. GOP rival John McCain's campaign criticized Obama Tuesday for speaking approvingly of the successful prosecution of terrorists.

A McCain aide said, "Obama is a perfect manifestation of a September 10th mind-set" and does not understand the dangers posed by U.S. adversaries.

Obama told reporters that the Republicans have no "standing to suggest that they've learned a lot of lessons from 9-11."

He said they "helped to engineer the distraction of the war in Iraq at a time when we could have pinned down the people who actually committed 9-11." He said Osama bin Laden is still at large in part because of their failed strategies.

I like the way he is handling these things -- he wastes no time in throwing the shit right back at them.

2. you're so right....
he wastes no time, and I'm so glad....so SICK of this "september 10th mentality" ... I always wondered why the repubs thought they had the copyright on that---did most Americans FORGET that they were in charge on 9/11??? they should not be able to wash their hands of that so easily.
