Hussein Won’t Man Up: Continues Flagrant Lie To Cover Ass On “Dollar Bills” Line

And stunningly blames McCain for starting what he started. Weasel. Coward. Dangerous. Idiot to think we are all that stupid.
WASHINGTON (AP) - Trading charges anew over who was guilty of injecting race into the presidential debate, a subject unlikely to fade away, the campaigns of John McCain and Barack Obama also blamed each other Friday for its increasingly negative tone.
McCain has accused Obama of playing politics with race for predicting that the likely Republican nominee and others in the GOP would try to scare voters by saying the Democrat “doesn’t look like all those other presidents on the dollar bills.” Obama’s spokesmen denied he was referring to being black, although all the presidents on U.S. currency are white.
(From Earlier PD Post: Incredulously, after Mcain attacked Obama for making such a charge, and Obama suddenly realizes that he’s fucked, issues a statement throuh his top staff that only a 5 year old could believe in any way ( apparently this guy’s as comfortable at lying as he is with using the word “I”): “He was not reffering to the fact that he’s black , but to the fact that he’s a Washington outsider.” When asked by The Associated Press what Obama meant by the comparison, Obama strategist Robert Gibbs said Thursday morning that the senator was not referring to race.
“What Barack Obama was talking about was that he didn’t get here after spending decades in Washington,” Gibbs said. “There is nothing more to this than the fact that he was describing that he was new to the political scene. He was referring to the fact that he didn’t come into the race with the history of others. It is not about race.” )
Obama senior strategist David Axelrod said Friday that race became an issue only when the McCain campaign cast a racial slant on Obama’s remarks, which were made at a campaign swing Wednesday in rural Missouri.
The next day, McCain campaign manager Rick Davis issued a statement claiming that Obama had played “the race card” and calling the remarks “divisive, negative, shameful and wrong.”
“We are not going to let anybody paint John McCain, who has fought his entire life for equal rights for everyone, to be able to be painted as racist,” Davis said Friday on “Today” on NBC. “We’ve seen this happen before and we’re not going to let it happen to us.”
Axelrod rejected the charge and repeated the assertion that Obama was talking about his status as a young, relative newcomer to Washington politics.
“Barack Obama never called John McCain a racist,” Axelrod said on “The Early Show” on CBS. “What Barack Obama was saying is he’s not exactly from Central Casting for presidential candidates.”
Axelrod criticized McCain for saying he was “proud” of a TV spot linking Obama to stars Britney Spears and Paris Hilton and suggesting that while popular around the world Obama wasn’t qualified to lead the U.S.
“They’ve been running a negative campaign for weeks,” Axelrod said on NBC. “We’re not going negative in return. We’re refuting the charges.”
Davis, appearing on ABC’s “Good Morning America,” countered: “It’s a great ad and everybody’s talking about it and we’re having a great time with it.”
As far as who was responsible for the campaign’s negative tone, Davis said on NBC: “We didn’t draw first blood. I mean, this campaign has been rough and tumble since the day Barack Obama got his nomination, and we’ve withered under the attacks of the Obama campaign on a daily basis.”

The latest polls did show him losing ground in the battleground states. We can only hope that America continues to be educated.
August 1st, 2008 at 5:52 am“He made me do it …,” Hussein whines as he points at McCain.
August 1st, 2008 at 6:23 amit seems to me to be an orchestrated scheme of his agenda to bait mccain and make him the bad guy… the statements in germany were of the same lingo..we have to remember this guy not only is a dummyrat he is also a lawyer and their main goal is to be ” convincing liars”..
August 1st, 2008 at 6:52 amhis political stances are off limits, he’s off limits, his wife’s off limits, his cohorts are off limits…what is “in bounds”??!?!?!?!?!??!?!
He’s been baiting for this for a while. He did it before he even won the nomination. He’s just been sitting and waiting to use it. This plus his “reparations” talk are sure to hurt him in the swing states. Everyone knows “reparations” and especially “global justice” (during a time of recession) through the UNITED NATIONS GUISE NO LESS.
It’s hard for the average American to sit and watch the UN beg for money, troops, etc…wait till we’re vulnerable…stab us in the back and when something positive happens they try to claim all the credit and when something goes horribly wrong we get all the blame.
If we are going to contribute to “global justice” at least it should be through our own efforts and not under the albatross of the United Nations. At least that way the countries affected would not be so inclined to hate us for all the injustice they feel in the world.
I’m sure the founders of the UN didn’t foresee the clusterF*$% the UN has become.
August 1st, 2008 at 7:14 amI really want Obama to explain to me just exactly what constitutes a “a typical white person”. If there is anyone in this campaign who is a racist it is Obama.
August 1st, 2008 at 7:31 amWhy do you suppose the media will not report the racism that is going on in Tennessee. Could it be because its the blacks who are being racist against a Jew.

The democrat party still clinging to its racist past.
“Axelrod rejected the charge and repeated the assertion that Obama was talking about his status as a young, relative newcomer to Washington politics.”
Bullshit.
August 1st, 2008 at 8:07 amAxelrod is the liar behind the lie. Tried twice in the last month and fell flat both times. He knows TheOne should be way ahead of MAC and the only way to win is to make race an issue.
I really don’t care that he’s half white and half Kenyan Arab so he should try gender. TheOne looks like Paris Hilton to me now. Think he’ll do a car wash commercial for the ladies??
Oh, yeah, sure, nice explanation. George Washington ($1) wasn’t a “Washington” insider, he could have been President for Life, but quit voluntarily after two terms and NEVER lived in the White House/D.C. Ben Franklin ($100) and Alexander Hamilton ($10) never were President. US Grant ($50) won the presidency as the youngest at age 46 up to that time and politically inexperienced, no DC experience. Andrew Jackson ($20)and Abe Lincoln ($5)could said to have been DC “insiders.” OK, two out of six. That’s not even a majority. In fact, Obama is more of an insider than Grant was, and he has something in common also: age 46. So…Obama demonstrates another profound ignorance of American history and he demonstrates he’s not telling the truth.
August 1st, 2008 at 9:58 amDamnit, now I have that “Working at the Carwash” song stuck in my head. He may actually be qualified for carwash job.

August 1st, 2008 at 10:04 amOK: I’ll try this again. My last post didn’t make it. Washington ($1) wasn’t a DC insider: he never lived in the White House/DC and he could have been President for Life, but gave it up after two terms. Hamilton ($10) and Franklin ($100) never were President. Lincoln ($5) and Jackson ($20) arguably were. Grant ($50) was not an insider, he was elected with no political experience whatsoever. Obama has something in common with him, his age (Grant elected at age 46). Obama more of a DC insider than Grant. OK, so 2 out of 6 isn’t exactly a majority. Obama reveals his profound ignorance of US history, in his attempt to fib his way out of his race-baiting comment.
August 1st, 2008 at 10:08 amyeah but i was talking about this one….

August 1st, 2008 at 11:25 amThat is the LAMEST coverup i’ve seen, “He was not reffering to the fact that he’s black , but to the fact that he’s a Washington outsider.”
Fuck him and his staff, including his wife who looks like Orf from star trek

August 1st, 2008 at 4:35 pmmccain may just have this election handed to him on a silver platter..democrats suck and it shows
August 2nd, 2008 at 3:48 amwhat part of “I don’t LOOK like all those other president’s on the dollar bill’s” with emphasis on LOOK do his campaign asshats think he’s talking about. They are trying to say he doesn’t LOOK like someone from the beltway. Is he trying to say that there are no other people that LOOK like him in Washington politics? But yaknow,he’s right. He’s an ugly,triangle shaped face,pistol-gripped ear looking alien from space.sheesh.
