When McCain scored a knockout over Senator Obama the other night at the Saddleback Church in Orange County by answering Reverend Warren’s questions more confidently, clearly and decisively than the stumbling, obfuscating Obama, Obama’s campaign accused the Straight Talk Express of cheating. Whiners.
There is no evidence -- none -- that McCain heard Obama’s rambling and confusing answers prior to taking the stage and answering Reverend Warren’s questions. The evidence is pretty plain: when thrashed soundly by a superior opponent, the Obama camp whined like school girls.
The Obama camp, recognizing that McCain answered the questions in a more straightforward, presidential tone than their guy, immediately began complaining that McCain must have cheated by listening to Obama fumble his answers time and time again. Obama appeared like the freshman senator that he is.
The bottom line is this: McCain appeared much more presidential than Obama. And there is a very valid reason for this: as a natural leader, McCain is a far better choice than Obama, who is the guy with the least amount of experience in the history of presidential campaigns.
When Obama does not have a teleprompter in front of him to deliver another hollow message of transparent, symbolic hope and change, his speech and answers to questions are disjointed and confusing. Watch him closely. He is not confident.
Are you, like me, wondering how a President Obama would fair politically against determined adversaries such as Iranian psychopath Ahmadinejad, North Korea’s Littler Hitler, Kim Jong Il, or how he would navigate through political minefields such as the trade imbalance with China, Russian saber rattling which could lead to a new Cold War, etc.? Scary thought.
Read Ted Nugent's entire column by following the link above to Human Events. President Barack Obama facing-off against Vlad the Impaler Putin, the Chi-Coms, Iran, and North Korea is indeed a "scary thought". I would go so far as to say "horrifying".
Whining is never Presidential. So what did Barack Obama immediately do after the forum at Rick Warren's church last weekend when he realized how weak and empty his peformance was compared to John McCain's? He whined. Obama accused McCain of cheating. How that in any way explains Obama's uninspiring and thoughtless answers to Warren's questions I do not know. The fact is, whether or not McCain cheated (which he did not) has zero to do with Obama's pathetic performance.
Probably the two worst answers during the entire forum: Obama's answer to confronting evil was to only give examples such as abusive parents, crime on our streets, and of course Darfur. To my knowledge, he never actually answered how to confront even those problems. Most likely negotiation. Obama's answer to the question of when human life begins was to say that answering the question was "above his pay grade".
John McCain on the other hand provided answers which were devestating to Obama's campaign: McCain's answer on how to confront evil was to "defeat it", and his answer to the question of when human life begins was "at conception". If for no other reason than the stark contrast between Obama's answers and McCain's, Barack Hussein Obama should be excluded from the Presidency. What Obama calls "nuance" most Americans, including myself, call "refusing to answer the question".
So, because of Obama's answers to these two questions alone he felt his only option left was to accuse John McCain of cheating. An outright lie and leap in logic that I have come to recognize all too well from liberals. No one should be surprised at Obama's accusation of cheating. A liberal forced to give straight answers is much like a fish being out of water. Obama's performance at Rick Warren's forum was one of the best examples of that comparison.
