[Sarah Palin] “doesn’t have any foreign policy credentials” ……”I think it’s a stretch to, in any way, to say that she’s got the experience to be president of the United States.. You get a passport for the first time in your life last year? I mean, I don’t know what you can say. You can’t say anything.”
“I think they ought to be just honest about it and stop the nonsense about, ‘I look out my window and I see Russia and so therefore I know something about Russia’….. ..That kind of thing is insulting to the American people.”
- Republican Senator Chuck Hagel (senior member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee)

In McCain’s bizarre interview with Spanish Owned Union Radio he
refused to say whether he would meet with Spain’s Prime Minister,
José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero. Listening to the interview repeatedly,
it simply seemed that McCain had no idea who Zapatero actually
was. McCain seemed to think he was a Latin American autocrat -
despite the reporter repeatedly saying “I am talking about Spain.”

Bushfamilymenber…You can try to reinvent history, but it won’t work…Wall Street Investment Banks lobbied both Democrats and Republicans in the 1990s to overturn Glass-Steagall, but it was Republican Phil Gramm’s sponsorship that raliied the GOP majority in both the Senate and House and Clinton had to sign it into law.

“The recent financial disasters — from the collapse of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to the historic drop in the stock market — are not just a string of bad luck. They are the result of years of bad decisions made in favor of big corporate special interests instead of America’s working families.
More than 600,000 Americans have lost their jobs since January. Home foreclosures are skyrocketing, and home values are plunging. Gas prices are at an all-time high, and we’re still spending more than $10 billion every month on a war in Iraq that should never have been waged.
John McCain’s campaign is doing everything it can to focus attention on false personal attacks and distractions — but there’s too much at stake for that kind of politics.”
Barack Obama
