Finally, after over a year of lying to the American People, the mainstream media finally acknowledged that we are winning in Iraq.
They did so not to be honest or fair, or even to inform the American People. They did it because it got the issues of national defense and foreign policy off of the table, allowing Barack Obama to shift the conversation away from John McCain’s strong points, and onto domestic issues, where Obama polls with a distinct advantage.
Why do you think energy prices were such a big deal this past month? The media pumped it up and Obama was all over it as a domestic issue - and doing quite well until he started doing things like opposing drilling and nuclear power, then suggesting that people check the air pressure of their tires.
Additionally, Republicans in Congress and John McCain saw an opening to take ownership of the energy debate and shove it down the throats of Barack Obama and the Democrats in Congress, swinging the opinion of the American People to their side in regards to domestic and offshore drilling. That is why Nancy Pelosi then shut down Congress, and at the same time the Democrats in Congress and Barack Obama went on vacation. In short, they ran for the hills hoping things would blow over. Then Obama could come back and get a bounce coming out of the Democrat Convention.
What they did not expect, however, was the conflict between Georgia and Russia blowing up out of nowhere and putting the issues of national security and foreign policy back center stage.
With Obama and the Democrats on vacation, they are not in a position to fight this political battle. Hence, that is why you have the firestorm of the Obama Campaign and their minions now attempting to do some sort of damage control by attacking John McCain's and Joe Lieberman's comments in regards to the Georgia-Russia conflict; hoping and praying that they can hold on in the polls until the convention, get their bounce, then convert it into momentum and break out in the polls - where they seem to be mired by their own ineptitude and inexperience in a virtual tie with John McCain .
This is what is going on...
