Just to show I can

Here is a video critical of Obama, and it's hard to deny it is true.


(If video doesn't load, you can see it here)

It's interesting how when the opponent does something "wrong" we are up in arms, and when our own candidate does it we cringe and think to ourselves, well, the ends justifies the means. Politics is probably a lot like having kids. It has become so emotional, that we don't really see anything objectively. We can acknowledge that it is wrong, but it doesn't have nearly the same impact on us as it would if the opponent did it. (ie Obama's support of ACORN is scary and bad while McCain's support of ACORN is okay. (I had a much longer list of comparisons but decided to keep it at one :-)))

I certainly don't think the video above is reason to not vote for Obama, but I post it because I think it is important to acknowledge that neither candidate is perfect.
