I merely pointed out the fallacy of your statement.  

I'd love to see one cite which points out that the Wilsons are persona non-grata in regards to Obama.

I doubt you will be able to supply one.

It foreshadowed what Powell would and would not do about Iraq.  When even I had read articles in well-known media about how bad the intelligence was, after the British investigated it, I could not believe that Powell had not read similar reports.

From WaPo via Brad Friedman:

When the six members of the [Wisconsin] state elections board --- all retired judges --- ran their registrations through the system, four were incorrectly rejected because of mismatches.

"I guess the point I'm making," he went on, "is that there is an entire industry now, an entire apparatus, designed to perpetuate this cultural schism, and it's powerful. People want to know that you're fighting for them, that you get them. And I actually think I do. But you know, if people are just seeing me in sound bites, they're not going to discover that. That's why I say that some of that may have to happen after the election, when they get to know you."

There are many legitimate concerns regarding McCain's true character; among the myriad 'red flags':

--McCain earned the moniker  'Songbird'  for trading military information to the North Vietnamese in return for preferential treatment.

--McCain dumped his first wife after a devastating accident left her disfigured.

--McCain was deeply entangled in the Charles Keating scandal.

Why is McCain given a free pass on these and so many other  legitimate  reflections on his character while he and Palin follow Karl Rove into the realm of politics of personal destruction based on distortions and outright fabrications?

This link alone provokes a multitude of legitimate questions for those who are intellectually honest:

I realize McCain's service to our country provides a degree of insulation to these nagging questions, but the nature and the abundance of doubts regarding his true character combined with his willingness to promulgate lies and distortions regarding Obama should considerably lower the threshold of his 'patriotic' shield.

This election is not over by a long shot. And you can be sure the McCain campaign, in desperation, has a bulging arsenal of additional illegitimate charges and insinuations for Obama. The least that should be done is to provide information that exposes some of the truths about McCain's 'dark side' that have been considered off limits for so long.

Just my opinion............we desperately need change in Washington. We should not risk four more years of disastrous leadership by ignoring some legitimate questions regarding Obama's opponent.

Dolphins managing partner Wayne Huizenga will finalize his sale of the team to co-owner Stephen Ross by the end of the year, Chris Mortensen of ESPN reports.... Per Mortensen, that date will be December 30. The reason? Huizenga wants to set the date of the sale before the end of 2008 because he believes Barack Obama will be elected president and will implement tax policies that are less favorable to billionaires who sell their businesses.
