Barack Obama slams McCain's Economic Plan, calling it an "endorsement of George W. Bush's policies" during a speech in Raleigh, NC on June 8, 2008:
"But when it comes to the economy, John McCain and I have a fundamentally different vision of where to take the country. Because for all his talk of independence, the centerpiece of his economic plan amounts to a full-throated endorsement of George Bush's policies. He says we've made "great progress" in our economy these past eight years. He calls himself a fiscal conservative and on the campaign trail he's passionate critic of government spending, and yet he has no problem spending hundreds of billions of dollars on tax breaks for big corporations and a permanent occupation of Iraq -- policies that have left our children with a mountain of debt."

Anubis, why would I want to go back to Obama's earlier speeches when his current speeches are sufficient. Obama has been allowing people to get to know him over the past 16 months, and some while Senator of Illinois. I'd rather have a president like Obama who is not only smart, but displays excellent leadership skills, organizational skills, PEOPLE skills, common sense and will prove to be a true great president. That's why Obama received the support of so many people, from white to black and all in between. The fact is, people are voting by the 'content of his character'.
For example, how you have exposed the content of YOUR character. You came on, calling Obama an "asshole". You have a right to call him whatever you want, but it takes an asshole, to know one. So where does this leave you? I believe you're a fraud. You're not an asshole, you're the whole ass. It would take an ASS to come on here calling our Democrative presumtive nominee an asshole. Maybe you're a repugnican.
You think Obama is just 'putting on a spin' to try to trick us? I would understand if you were making this claim about McCain! But Obama is about the change he overstands we need in this day and the climate of the world.
You ARE an egghead and just because you have a piece of paper that says you graduated from some college...don't get it twisted. That piece of paper is about all you have to stand behind and I'll kick that shit down.
Anubis. And I bet you THINK you know something about Egypt too...hahahaheheheheh
