McCain Campaign Kicks Out Black Reporter
Obama Speaks Before 200,000 While John McCain Rewrites History

When I say rewrites history I mean literally rewriting what has already happened. This and more great stuff in today's Countdown Recap. We have Obama in an impressive speech in Berlin. Also an excerpt of a Brian Williams interview with him right after, and I got to tell you it's great it's unscripted and it really shows how genuine he really is.
I guarantee anyone with any doubts about what his intentions are will or should be able to put them to rest by watching this. There is no wild blinking and awkward cackles like you see with John McCain, like a puppy waiting to see if hes done good. Instead today you saw a passion an unblinking, unwavering, confident discussion with the World on how we can all come together. It was unprecedented for a candidate of any type.
It is impressive I can tell you that. Sadly John McCain is breaking down. Slandering Obama in a sad attempt to get some attention. Saying he(Obama) would rather lose a war and risk our country's safety, than lose an election. Pretty much calling him a traitor. This from the man who promised no negative campaigning. He is pretty much starting out going as low as you can go. Well there is lots of other good stuff too, it's a good one...

John McCain Gives Out Details Of Obama's High Security Trip To Iraq

Today at a Republican fundraiser John McCain had this to say about Obama arriving in Iraq...
"I believe that either today or tomorrow -- and I'm not privy to his schedule -- Sen. Obama will be landing in Iraq with some other senators"
This like the title stated is a High Security Trip To Iraq for Obama. News reports had said this weekend but no details. John McCain's camp said he was just talking broadly. I really can't believe he did that. That is one of the most irresponsible comments he could have made. What if someone was or is targeting him, You give a timeline to when he might arrive? What would John McCain of done if the same had been done to him? I know what would of happened he would of cried like a baby. Right fully so however because you just don't give out details like that.
Obama has kept the days secret for security reasons. I don't believe that this was a mistake either. John McCain and his staff have military contacts who would know when Obama would be there. He knows and when he says he doesn't he is lying. Why would he even say that. This is just more proof of what a horrible person this man is and what a horrible choice he would be for any public office really. This is also the same man who assailed the media for reporting on his son's whereabouts in Iraq, Now giving the same information about his opponent.
He knows exactly what he did, and if he doesn't then he is too senile to hold office. There really is no excuse and giving his comments like "Bomb-Bomb Bomb Iran" and "Maybe they (Iran) will kill themselves with cigarettes" I do not accept the fact that this was just an innocent passing of information. His sense of humor and his words and actions show you how he thinks, his continuous lies and lies about the lies shows a man who will do anything to win, and I think that means even putting his opponents in danger. He is a military man, Kill Or Be Killed has been beaten in to him. I think he takes that seriously sometimes.
It's not that far out there. Here is a man that protected Charles Keating. A man that defines war as an event that can be won. A man that would keep our troops over there as long as it took to have full control of Iraq's oil and a permanent base in a central part of the middle east. A base that could be used for future possible wars over that very oil that lies there. This is a man who would let his son go to a war that was waged on lies and do nothing to stop it and continue to support it even. This is a man who just told the world that Barack Obama will be landing In Iraq Today or Tomorrow. I find it disgraceful that he would stoop this low, But he is scared because he knows that he doesn't have a chance in November. That's right I said it, I don't think he does.
I see these people say oh John McCain was a prisoner you can't say anything bad about him he is a hero. Well so are some of those guys on the side of the freeway with cardboard signs asking for money. Should we elect them to office because they fought? He might of fought in Vietnam, but his actions before and after have been severely unbecoming and misguided, to say it politely, for any person. The fact that this man is at present still an elected official, I believe is a disgrace to our Country. His statements today just furthered my opinion of him.
Ok I'm done some stories on this below.

Doesn't even know how he voted. Totally speechless, totally Presidential...
There is a theme here, John McCain seems to not recall how he votes.. a lot. So how passionate is he on his issues then? How much does he care about what he votes on. Why would someone think he has their best interests in mind, when he can't even remember what he does at his job. The most important part of his job, The part that makes up our laws. That part that concerns us and how our Country is run. That is pretty important to just not remember, on Many occasions.
The Week That Should Of Ended John McCain's Candidacy
The Week That Should Have Ended McCain's Presidential Hopes
This is the week that should have effectively ended John McCain's efforts to become the next president of the United States. But you wouldn't know it if you watched any of the mainstream media outlets or followed political reporting in the major newspapers.During this past week: McCain called the most important entitlement program in the U.S. a disgrace, his top economic adviser called the American people whiners, McCain released an economic plan that no one thought was serious, he flip flopped on Iraq, joked about the deaths of Iranian citizens, and denied making comments that he clearly made -- TWICE. All this and it is not even Friday! Yet watching and reading the mainstream press you would think McCain was having a pretty decent political week, I mean at least Jesse Jackson didn't say anything about him.
But let's unpack McCain's week in a little more detail.
1. McCain unambiguously called Social Security "an absolute disgrace." This is not a quote taken out of context. John McCain called one of the most successful and popular government programs, which uses the tax revenues of current workers to support retirement benefits for the elderly "an absolute disgrace." This is shocking - and if uttered from Obama's mouth would dominate the news coverage and the Sunday shows, as pundits would speculate about the massive damage the statement would cause him among retirees in Florida.
2. McCain's top economic policy adviser calls Americans a bunch of "whiners" for being worried about the slumping economy. Words cannot fully explain how devastating this statement should be from Phil Gramm. You would think it would be enough to sink McCain's campaign. Of course McCain only thinks that the economic problems are psychological.
3. Iraqi leaders call for a timetable for U.S. withdrawal, McCain gets caught in a bizarre denial and flip flop. The Iraqis now want us to begin planning our withdrawal - McCain however wants to stay foooorrreeevvveerrrr. So what does McCain say - First, he refuses to accept Maliki's statement as being true. Then he concedes that it was an accurate statement, but was probably just a political ploy to curry favor with his own people and WOULD NOT influence his determination to keep US troops in Iraq indefinitely. Yet, McCain in 2004 at the Council on Foreign Relations said that if the Iraqis asked us to leave, we would have to go. No matter what. But that was apparently a younger and less experienced John McCain.
But let's just look at his comment that Maliki's statement is "just politics." If that is true, then it must also be true that the American military presence in Iraq is so unpopular with Iraqis that the government is forced to push for a timetable in order to survive at the ballot box. That's a reason to stay for 100 years.

John McCain's Top Economic Advisor Gramm : Mental Recession?

"You've heard of mental depression; this is a mental recession," he said, noting that growth has held up at about 1 percent despite all the publicity over losing jobs to India, China, illegal immigration, housing and credit problems and record oil prices. "We may have a recession; we haven't had one yet."This comes from McCain's Top economic adviser. The man who outlines his economic plan. So this is a huge preview of what a John McCain administration would do about our economy. Nothing!"We have sort of become a nation of whiners," he said. "You just hear this constant whining, complaining about a loss of competitiveness, America in decline" despite a major export boom that is the primary reason that growth continues in the economy, he said.
