McCain says choice is between 'country first or Obama first'
:crazy:


http://blogs.usatoday.com/onpolitics/2008/09/mccain-says-cho.html?loc=interstitialskip

Here's the crowd-pleasing line from the address that Republican presidential John McCain just gave in Columbus, Ohio. It came after McCain ran through a number of reasons why he believes his thinking is right for the nation and Democrat Barack Obama's is wrong:

"So, that's how we see this election: Country First or Obama First, and I have a feeling I know which side you’re all on."

McCain's remarks, as prepared for delivery, are posted here.

In a statement he just released, Obama campaign spokesman Tommy Vietor calls McCain's address an "angry diatribe" that falsely accuses Obama of planning to raise most Americans' taxes. Obama says his plan would cut taxes for 95% of taxpayers.

1. McCain's philosophy, as we know, is McCain First.

9. Utter Bullshit!
If there's anybody putting himself ahead of the country it's McCain. All you have to do is look at his VP choice to see he couldn't care less about the welfare of the country.
