After reviewing the Obama campaign website, I asked readers on Saturday to tell me about Barack Obama’s accomplishments. The responses were weak at best.
Several people posted about him writing two books, but as we all know they were for self promotion. (Readers should note that Sarah Palin has also authored a book.)
One person told me that Obama is not required to do anything as a Senator other than his constituent work. I am glad John McCain did not stick to only answering constituent problems. As a Senator, McCain put his entire political career at risk demanding that President Bush implement the surge which has turned around the Iraq war…
Can anyone name a time that Barack Obama has had the courage to stand up to his party and put country first? Name one!
Well… that’s just an open invitation to take the fight to the other side, isn’t it? Show her whatcha got, BMGers.
*A note of caution: If you’re going to post there, I’m curious to see if you run into the same trouble I did. After making one post deriding Robichaud for being lazy, I could suddenly no longer post anymore. It would be interesting indeed if the Herald were purposely limiting feed-back.
If someone, in response to a “tell me when Obama put country before party” said “you’re lazy”, I’d probably delete the comment too: i) relevance? ii) ad hominem?

It’s disappointing
