The lesson for McCain and the RNC this week

Careful what you wish for !

Seeing a possible opportunity to gain points against Obama, the Republican National Committee on Wednesday launched a clock on its Web site that is counting the days since the Democratic presidential front-runner visited Iraq.

“Barack Obama has only visited Iraq once — and that was 871 days ago,” RNC Chairman Mike Duncan said.

“Obama has done shockingly little to educate himself firsthand about the war in Iraq. Instead, he displays an arrogant certainty gained on the campaign trail. … Obama’s failure to visit Iraq, listen and learn firsthand and witness the surge’s progress demonstrates weak leadership that disqualifies him from being commander in chief.”

2. McLame, Bush, Cheney, Condi, Gooliani, etc etc all went to Iraq 46586979080 times
What good did those many many visits do,,,what answers emerged?....Then...the solutions turned out to be all wrong...indicating they are GUESSING...

So don't make Obamas Iraqi Time an issue....its NOT...its a distractions....

If Iraqi Time really is a factor...W should be LIVING THERE

3. I've seen wingnut emails accusing Obama of being an arrogant egotist.
The same charge was repeated about 8 times in one email. After 7 ½ years of Bush and Cheney, it's pretty brazen of a Republican to complain of anyone else being arrogant person with an ego problem.

I don’t have to go to Baghdad to know we need to get out of Iraq and neither does Obama.

7. And they're in denial over Maliki's endorsement of Obama's plan for Iraq.
I love the sound of neocon heads exploding.

6. How about a count down clock for when McBush realizes America is in a recession
Or just a clock for when McBush understands the economy.
