McCain Mocked Idea of Obama on U.S. Currency...in JUNE (campaign, accuse)

[blacknight04]

all note that the McCain campaign's strategy on race is to (a) play the race card and then (b) accuse Obama of having played the race card.
The issue here, of course, is that John McCain claimed great umbrage at Barack Obama's lighthearted comment that Bush and McCain would emphasize that "he doesn't look like all those other presidents on the dollar bills."
But if John McCain thinks that comment was playing the race card, then why did he play it first? One month ago -- in late June -- a McCain ad superimposed Obama's visage on a one hundred dollar bill as part of an effort to mock his supposed 'presumptuousness.'

You are really reaching.

I suggest you watch the ad. It points out Obama's narcisism and ego as evidenced in his own personal presidential seal. Anyone can be a narcisist, black or white.

Nice try though.

I tell you, this is just pure COMEDY. I am just waiting to see what McCain's supporters have to say about this.

It's very simple to mock his presumptousness. He has provided plenty of fodder, which is fair game.

Without the comments of obama playing the race card, this is just well-deserved mockery.

Did it ever occur that is where obama got his "be afraid" line?
