An increasing desperate, or as Fred would say panic driven, Barack Obama campaign has resorted to telling outright lies about John McCain, Politico [1]:
ST. PAUL, Minn. – Barack Obama has launched a broadside against John McCain’s opposition to abortion rights and moved one of the most divisive issues in modern American politics to the airwaves on a large scale for the first time in this presidential campaign.
Obama’s new radio ad, airing widely in at least seven swing states, tells voters McCain “will make abortion illegal.” It’s airing as McCain courts female voters with the addition of the staunchly anti-abortion governor of Alaska, Sarah Palin, to his ticket.
The Obama campaign claims that Obama taught Constitutional Law. Yet the President has no power to change the Constitution. In fact the amendment process by-passes the President. Constitutional amendments are proposed by Congress and ratified by the States. The President is not involved at all in the process.
So why does a person who claims to have taught the Constitution lie about what the Constitution allows? Dare i say the audacity of panic?
