Sorry to fire up on your blog Oselle, but I couldn't resist. The Press has loved McCain for years, and there are youtubes of press members admitting it openly.
Foreign countries don't govern us? I would argue that we've been governed by Saudi Arabia, China, and BinLadinistan (or whatever) for years.
And last I checked, if you give tax breaks to corporations, they offshore to China and pocket the rest. And if you turn your back for a minute, they run up the credit card and then come back begging, as we found out this week.
I agree with your suspicion that she's parroting some made-up points from somewhere. Fake Holocaust? Mexican unions? I haven't heard ANYthing about this in the campaigns. There must be some viral email out there that cobbles together the bullet points from every anti-Democratic group out there.
That's something I've noticed about the Republicans. They almost never come up with something specific about a specific candidate. It's always "The candidtate is a Liberal, and ALL Liberals kill babies/take away guns/socialize medicine/hire illegals for everything/hand out welfare/drive a car off a cliff in Massachusetts." The only specific thing they seem to have come up with about Obama is either hate speech (black) or an outright lie (Muslim).
