In his own words

From the Debate:“So to stand here and after eight years and say that you’re going to lead on controlling spending and, you know, balancing our tax cuts so that they help middle class families when over the last eight years that hasn’t happened I think just is, you know, kind of hard to swallow.”

But BHO somehow missing the venomous ravings of his mentor/pastor for 20+ years, and the public pro-terror pronouncements of his political guru Ayers is supposed to be easy to swallow?

This is great. Obama wants voters to believe that since McCain was there during the eight years that Bush was and did not do anything to fix things, it is unbelievable but Obama wants us to further believe that when he spent 20 years at a radical church with a racist pastor and did not leave or change things, that is OK.

So, now that Obama has made it clear that the standard is if you were there you should have changed things, I want to know why Obama (the so called candidate of change) did not change things at that church or change his participation? I want to know why Obama did not change his associations with a known domestic terrorist. I want to know why he did not change his association with Rezko, who might now cooperate with prosecutors.

You see, Obama has set the standard with what is to be believed and what is not. Since he has spent years with shady people, racists, terrorists, and other corrupt politicians it is only fair to conclude that Obama knew about all these people, what they were doing and he stayed with them either because he agreed with them or they could help him politically, or both.

One thing is certain, Obama cannot claim that it is unfair to use guilt by association because he has set the standard.

It is also fair state to Obama:
“So to stand here and after twenty years say that you don’t hold the radical views of Pastor Wright and, you know, never heard him talk like we have seen on the videos and that is why you are now leaving the church when over the last twenty years that hasn’t happened I think just is, you know, kind of hard to swallow.”
