Has that been the “high road”? How many times has Bush been vilified as “stupid”? Could Obama’s thin skin endure 1% of what Bush has endured with grace? Bush is no more stupid than Obama has shown himself to be with his gaffes. Bush’s and McCain’s weakness is that they have not responded with aggressiveness equal to that of their opponents. McCain has failed to blame Democrats Barney Frank, Chris Dodd, and others who vocally opposed attempts to reform Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac in 2003 and 2005, because he wants to avoid “partisanship”. If he refuses to start “naming names,” he concedes the race to those who blame him and his party for this mess. The truth will come out, whether we name and blame, or not. The problem is that if we keep silent, we end up finding out the truth the hard way. Tom Hobson Belleville, IL - Readers Feedback Tue, 07 Oct 2008 08:18:47 +0100
