Obama: "I've got a bracelet too"

The bracelet exchange really pulled off Obama's veil.

"I've got a bracelet too".

What a sniveling way to belittle the sacrifice of John McCain and every soldier defending our sovereignty and freedom.

Howie Carr, one of the few journalists who mentioned the bracelet quip, pointed out Obama's frightening foreign policy tack:

For the last hour, McCain bested Obama at almost every turn. Even at the start, McCain mentioned Ted Kennedy’s seizure first, and later he beat him to the punch on global warming while simultaneously dropping Hillary Clinton’s name first. McCain even needled Obama on his presidential seal.


But then McCain called out Barack on his statement that if American troops were threatened, he’d strike Pakistan.

“You don’t do that,” McCain said, sounding like the Godfather. “You don’t say that out loud. If you have to do things, you have to do things.”
Such loose cannon statements would increase the likelihood of a terrorist attack preemptive.

After Obama talked about his policy about Afghanistan, McCain pointed out that Obama has never even been there, never spoken to Petreus.

Obama gave Kissinger's blessing to his policy on Iran - making friends with an antisemite who wants to pick up where Hitler left off, but McCain confidently pointed out that Obama was mistaken about Kissinger's approval. Obama incredulously persisted with his hallucination. Kissinger of course corrected Obama in yesterdays press.

Henry Kissinger believes Barack Obama misstated his views on diplomacy with US adversaries and is not happy about being mischaracterized. He says: "Senator McCain is right. I would not recommend the next President of the United States engage in talks with Iran at the Presidential level. My views on this issue are entirely compatible with the views of my friend Senator John McCain. We do not agree on everything, but we do agree that any negotiations with Iran must be geared to reality."
Obama's performance was miserable. McCain had him on the defensive all evening.

He better pull his act together and stop referring to McCain as "John" before the next debate. It's not helping his image.
