The McCain Campaign Says NY Times Refused to Print his Op-Ed Response to Barack Obama. Apparently, John McCain didn’t tell them what they wanted to hear so they decided not to print his response. In other words, Mr. McCain is to provide a timetable for leaving Iraq, no matter what—or else.

Seriously, Is Obama Just a Puppet? »

We first learned who was behind Obama and his inspiring speeches months ago. Those very speeches that excited the crowds, and drew people in. Those very speeches that many people voted for.

Quibbles and Bits - 7/3 »
