... because I shared my toys in Kindergarten."

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:



Politico - Obama again mocks 'socialist' claim

Obama, in Raleigh, N.C., returned to the claim by the McCain camp that he's sliding toward socialism.

McCain is "spending these last few days calling me every name in the book," Obama said.o

"I’m sorry to see my opponent sink so low. Lately, he’s called me a socialist for wanting to roll back the Bush tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans so we can finally give tax relief to the middle class. By the end of the week, he’ll be accusing me of being a secret communist because I shared my toys in Kindergarten," he said.


Edit:Whooops!!! Dupe.... sorry, Pirate!

5. That's why I don't understand why some people are claiming Obama is not hitting back.
Do they even watch one of his speeches? :shrug:
He has been hitting back on McCain in every single speech over the last month.

7. They are willfully ignorant.
If they paid attention, they'd lose much of their "concern".

6. CNN tv is carrying it now. I like he specifically addressed the ballot confusion
some people are having here about straight ticket voting.

18. Each and every day and every single speech he delivers is proof positive that not only
is our country worth fighting for but a man as well, one that I have no doubt who will once again lead us out of servitude which is where we have now found ourselves....I cannot for the life of me believe that any sane individual who proclaims to love this country has even the slightest doubt about whom to vote for....
