Comments on: Obama couldn’t justify the effort: Trip to visit wounded soldiers cancelled http://fairlyconservative.com/2008/07/25/obama-couldnt-justify-the-effort-trip-to-visit-wounded-soldiers-cancelled/ To a sufficient degree; in an evenhanded manner.

It wasn't just once. And, on the Iraq matter i'm very disappointed in the language I am hearing now. More than you'd believe. I'm not really an Obamabot and I am yearning for the Iowa Obama of the beginning of this year. I tend to be an iconoclast and Obama is testing my hope. That being said, Obama's missteps are mere crumbs when compared to McCain's crumbling cookie. McCain’s been making the mistake for years now and has been corrected several times.

I still THINK of it as Czechoslovakia, and I've been there, have friends there, and know that it's not. You'll be over 30 someday, too. By the way - did you notice that your candidate now agrees with McCain's long-time policy regarding Iraq? Whatever will you do?

I do love how capper comes back in and reinforces his complete ignorance of the (quite old by the way) DOD ordinance against politicizing wounded, like it's some vast right wing conspiracy. It only reaffirms the lack of foundation for his own opinions. If I really cared what he thought about me I wouldn't post. I would guess the same for him, although he'd like to pretend otherwise - kind of like his choice of candidate's world of make-believe. It’s okay CK, I’ve got a thick skin!

Obama should have been there for that vote. Fortunately, I have the ability to admit that. Maybe McCain forgets to show up to vote on bills. Or maybe he's too busy trying to remember that Czechoslovakia isn't a country (almost 18 years later) http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/07/24/mccains-surge-gaffe-actua_n_114578.html Oh sorry, Obama missed that vote and you rail on him but McCain misses over 60% of Senate votes (which is almost double of the next highest) and you see that as a mere paltry fact.
