the real funny in this post is how it started with MCCAIN IS DOING AMAZING THINGS IN CEDAR RAPIDS BUT OBAMA ISNT LOL...yet there has been no mention of this in the media (I know, liberal run media controlled by Fidel Castro) and the original poster neglected to include a link. Then, once we hit the page with Obama shoveling dirt (still no McCain photo ops), he is putting on a political show.
haha, after the photo op, how many babies did he kiss? I know that I usually show up to do hard work in a collared shirt. doesn't look the like the pants and boots fit him. I wonder why? I wonder if obama noticed this an hour later when he was in a limo to get some authentic sushi.
I can certainly accept the argument that this was mainly a photo-op, but what a great photo-op it is - Obama doing actual work to help out actual people doing actual work. Say all you want, but Obama and his team are good - real good. Let's compare photo-op's of leadership in times of crisis:
why don't you put up some pictures of john mccain being tortured in a POW camp? see, barack's life has always been cake. he has never overcome anything. let's put some stuff into context friend.

It is funny. I hate to make a big deal out of what is little more than a photo-op but apparently this is a big deal. To voters.
How can I tell? Because the republicans are really squirming on this one. I mean really squirming. The usual attempts to twist this story are surprisingly weak.
And the most vulnerable spot seems to be the infamous cake photo. Looks like we have a real Achilles heel. Interesting.
Sunshine you asked:
**** For those goofs who keep talking about where was McCain during Katrina, I ask you the same question, where the heck was Obama before, during and after Katrina ?????

* Sept. 21, 2005: Obama co-sponsors bill to establish a Katrina commission to investigate response to the disaster introduced by Hillary Clinton
This is just a starter. So there now research and it is amazing the answers to your questions that are out there. Now I will admit that this is a pro Obama site so I am sure you will provide a listing with links of all that Mr. McCain has done that far exceeds that of that other person
Great job Obama. You showed up alittle late and a few homes short. And only after the press went after you for not even mentioning it did you do something.
Can you say GRANDSTAND!
This reminds me of John Kerry and his gun episode.
So if he helps, he's grandstanding. Why bother posting when all you want to do is show how much you hate Obama. You lose your credibility in so doing and certainly will garner no support.
I was at the VA today for a Pre-Op EKG. I looked for McCain but did not see him. Steve
virginia silly!
