I agree with the pundits who said this comment was a look at the real thinking inside the McCain campaign.

Black said what he said….in the context of Bhutto's assassination….and McSame distanced himself from those comments.

All part of the game.

Black did what he did in order to capture the media spotlight for a couple days. Worked like a charm. Anytime media isn't talking about McSame's flip-flops or his likeness to George….is all good for the straight talker.

That's all the comment was meant to accomplish.

Republicans are better at national defense….in the same way Republicans are fiscally conservative.

In short….it's a myth.

Bush/Cheney were in charge on 9-11. They're Republicans. Under the leadership of Republicans, and at the command of a Republican administration, our military was sent to invade and occupy a nation which harbored no al-Qaeda people. Now we're bogged down in an expensive colonialistic occupation while worldwide Islamic extremism grows.

All of that….plus the lies, fraud, Constitution shredding, etc….allegedly equates to Republicans being strong on national defense.

It's a propaganda pipedream.

Most politicians think that another 9/11 would benefit Reps. whether they say so or not. Obviously that is Black's opinion. But, it is one man's opinion, nothing more or less.
Let him say it, just as Chuck would say that more voters are too smart to fall into that line of thinking. This is America, folks, so let people have their say whether you think it is ridiculous or not. We still have freedom of speech the last time I checked, although political correctness has certainly caused many folks to think twice before they speak. It used to be commom sense that caused them to do that.

I watched MSNBC just to listen to the inane chattering on the subject tonight and I wasnt disapointed. As usual they had all the bases covered a man, a woman and a black person(please forgive me thought police) from the Was. Post. My favorite was the woman.
When shown Hilary saying the same thing Hillary was given a pass becaue they belong to the same fraternity(Dem. party) so to speak. Her logic was that those comments might be construed as really meaning the person wished for that to happen and since she had her doubts about whether that person might actually want it to happen it was wrong to make that statement. What kind of society are we becoming when we are supposed to listen to morons like this? I quess the up side is soon I wont be allowed to think for myself and all I will have to do is turn to the enlightned elite for the proper thought and correct action.

This is shameful post, followed by a few shameful comments. Just like Hillary's comments were. And just like Clyburns were, if they meant what you assume (but they could easily mean "the problem" is that petreaus' BIASED report is manipulated by the republicans and the media….because the GAO report which happens to be damaging goes undiscussed)

And I don't even see how its true. 9/11 was on Republican watch and a new attack would be after 7.5 years of Republican watch. And McCain opposes increased domestic spending, instead favoring financing our wars.
Voters are dumb, but not that dumb.

The statement itself is true but not the thing that people or advisors are supposed to go around saying.

I cant believe this statement has become an issue. What the hell is the problem? Is it that one cant mention another attack or is it that by stating what everyone knows it somehow is a criticismof Obama?
At least if McCain wants to denounce the statement the least he could do is expalin why he is denouncing the statement instead of his pointless rambling about his commitment to a safe Amercia. Has our loss of free speech gone so far that we have to ask ourselves before we say anything "might somone find it offensive or even worse could it possibly be miscontstrued by someone thus upsetting them?
