Silent Treatment

This originally was a post by a different name about Barack Obama’s Republican opponent in the presidential race. In that post I analyzed how that opponent said he had “suspended” his campaign, when in fact all evidence (which I documented) points to him doing the complete opposite with the exception of canceling and moving the debates with Barack Obama. Obama’s opponent’s campaign offices were still operating and working, his ads were still up, the candidate himself was still giving campaign interviews and his staff was still attacking Barack Obama in media outlets - in other words saying the campaign was “suspended” was a complete lie to gain media attention.

Rick Davis, Barack Obama’s Republican opponent’s campaign manager, has said this election is not about the issues - he’s right because that’s the race they’ve decided to run - and there’s a lesson for political commentators and strategists there. Then Ronald Reagan Campaign Manager James Baker famously congratulated a news outlet that ran a story slamming Reagan because the pictures in the story made him look “presidential” - there’s a lesson there too.

Barack Obama and Joe Biden are the only serious presidential and vice presidential candidates in this race. They’re the only ones that deserve the attention and time of the press and political commentators. Don’t be distracted - then the other side, the side that’s not interested in the issues and will say anything for attention, wins. The American people deserve better than Barack Obama and Joe Biden’s opponents - which is why Barack and Joe deserve your vote.

    Robert,

    With Saddam Hussein dead and gone, an elected Iraqi government in place, and Nuri Al-Maliki’s government having negotiated an agreement for the withdrawal of US military occupation that strongly resembles the Iraq policy of the Obama campaign, please explain what it means to “win” at this point. TIA.

    FIRST,WE DON’T UP AND LEAVE. THIS WILL CAUSE A WIDER WAR AND IRAQ IS NOT STABLE AS OBAMA STATES. WE DON’T CUT FUNDS OFF LIKE OBAMA WANT ALSO. LETS GET THAT STRAGHT.

    TERRORISTS WILL NOT STAY IN ONE SPOT. THEY WILL MOVE LIKE A CANCER FROM ONE PLACE TO ANOTHER. WE HAVE TO CRUSH THEM OUT. WE NEED FORCES IN BOTH AND HELP FROM NATIONS TO KEEP THE EYES AND EARS OPEN. THAT IS WHAT SEN. MC’CAIN WILL DO.

    WE HAVE TO FOLLOW WHAT THE GENERALS ON THE GROUND SAY AND NOT ANYTHING MORE. IRAQ LIKE ISRAEL WILL HAVE BE BUFFER AGAINST IRAN AND KOREA FOR EXAMPLE MUCH LIKE POLAND AND GERMANY VS. THE SOVIETS IN THE COLD WAR.

    FINALLY, THE OVER ALL OBJECTIVE IS WIN THE WAR ON TERROR, STOP IRAN FOR EXAMPLE FROM GETTING THE BOMB. NOT RUN WITH OUR TAILS BETWEEN THE LEGS IN DEFEAT! OBAMA’S PLAN WILL DO JUST THAT! IE. NO EXPERIENCE!!

    WITH RESPECT,
