Yes, Nunn was with Obama today

Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama was in Richmond, Va., on Tuesday to attend what the Associated Press called “a meeting with foreign policy and military luminaries to discuss ‘urgent issues’ facing the country from abroad.”

The meeting was intended to help Obama protect himself against a new round of charges from Republican John McCain side that he is too inexperienced for the White House.

No doubt you’ve already noticed that, at the press conference that followed, Obama was flanked by former Clinton administration adviser Wendy Sherman, left, and former Georgia senator Sam Nunn.

Because Sarah Palin’s ‘executive’ experience clearly qualifies her more than Obama.

Wasn’t McCain against Bush’s tax cuts in 2000?

Wasn’t McCain fine with ACORN in 2006?

If you bring up the past, try not to be hypocritical about it AH.

Yeah, the party that used to be the party of slavery are all now Republicans.

Republicans in the South are Old Dixiecrats with the serial numbers filed off.

To understand the Republican party in the South, you have to go back to the Democratic Convention that seated the Julian Bond delegation not the delegation presented by the Georgia Democratic Party. Those folks left the convention, returned to Georgia, and joined the “Carpetbagger Party” as it was known then. Today, they rule because Roy Barnes removed the Confederate flag from the state flag and the rest will be history in a couple of weeks. (Who do you think paid for all those Boot Barnes stickers? Answer: The same folks who are dressing-up Sarah!)

In a TV ad and in speeches, Obama is making bogus claims that McCain plans to cut $880 billion from Medicare spending and to reduce benefits.

A TV spot says McCain’s plan requires “cuts in benefits, eligibility or both.” Obama said in a speech that McCain plans “cuts” that would force seniors to “pay more for your drugs, receive fewer services, and get lower quality care.”

Update, Oct. 21: A second Obama ad claims that McCain’s plan would bring about a 22 percent cut in benefits, “higher premiums and co-pays,” and more expensive prescription drugs.

These claims are false, and based on a single newspaper report what a shame anyone would want to be seen with this lying liar remember when you vote for BO it is a vote for socialism at its finest… think BO now wants to charge the media 1800 dollars to cover election night with him … hope everyone knows what they are getting into by voting BO into office. Changes is what he stands for but this is not the changes we really want … this person has no honesty or integrity sorry he makes Bill Clinton look like a SAINT…

Yeah, well, Sam Nunn’s really helped the Dems to succeed in Georgia over the past few elections with his endorsement: Max Cleland, Roy Barnes, Mark Taylor to name a few …

It’ll be the same result on Nov. 4th this year.

Yep, Georgia will still be among the slowest to learn and accept the truth.
