John McCain Is On His Game

"We Have Nothing to Fear, but Fear Itself!" - Franklin D. Roosevelt

"The Buck Stops Here!" - Harry S. Truman

"That Answer is Above my Paygrade" - Barack H. Obama

Jennifer Rubin posted the text of Senator McCain's Saturday radio address. It looks like the gloves are off!

Here was a candidate for the presidency of the United States, asked for his position on one of the central moral and legal questions of our time, and this was the best he could offer: It’s above his pay grade. He went on to assure his interviewer that there is a, quote, “moral and ethical element to this issue.” Americans expect more of their leaders. There seems to be a pattern here in my opponent’s approach to many hard issues. Whether it’s the surge in Iraq that has brought us near to victory, or the issue of campaign reform, or the question of offshore drilling, Senator Obama’s speeches can be impressive. But when it’s time for straight answers, clear conviction, and decisive action, suddenly all of these responsibilities are — well, as he puts it, “above my pay grade.” As mottos of leadership go, it doesn’t exactly have the ring of “the buck stops here.”

At Saddleback, he assured a reporter that he’d have voted “yes” on that bill if it had contained language similar to the federal version of the Born Alive Infants Protection Act. Even though the language of both the state and federal bills was identical, Senator Obama said people were, quote, “lying” about his record. When that record was later produced, he dropped the subject but didn’t withdraw the slander. And now even Senator Obama’s campaign has conceded that his claims and accusations were false.

So, Barack Hussein O'blurry, dodges the difficult questions, preferring to speak in clichés and obfuscation, while he hides his pro-infanticide voting record and slanders anyone who criticizes him.
That about sum it up? Oh, yeah!
