Countdown Campaign Comment: On Rank Hypocrisy and Rashid Khalidi
What's that old saying? When you point a finger at someone, you have four fingers pointing back at yourself. Well, just like every other smear that the McCain campaign has desperately flung at the Obama campaign, the reality of this new "palling around with anti-Israel types like Rashid Khalidi" looks bad...bad for McCain.
Senator, Senator, Senator...Morals aside, this is the classic problem of guilt by association:
Obama and Ayers gave Khalidi's organizations 80-thousand dollars. McCain gave Khalidi's organizations 448 thousand dollars.
Obama and Ayers. Obama and Ayers. Obama and Ayers... and McCain.
Obama and Ayers and McCain. Ayers and McCain.
Ayers and McCain!
So now, not only is Rashid Khalidi your problem, not Obama's. But now you're connected to Bill Ayers. The only difference is who gave this nebulously nefarious guy with the Arabic name more money, you or Ayers?
Golly, Senator, that'd be you... by a figure of at least 5-1.
Which is also the ratio of your campaign's sleaze bombs that blow up in your own face.
