Obama All Sense / McCain Nonsense

John McCain keeps saying, "I know how to deal with Bin Ladin, I know how to"get" him. I've got the experience". This is crazy stuff from McCain, and unfortunately Barack let this claim go unchallenged. Maybe he believes that most people can see through this McCain nonsense. Think about it. If McCain knows how to"get" Bin Ladin as he puts it, why hasn't he let his Commander in chief and good friend President Bush or anyone else into his secret. Bush and the American military top brass need to hear "McCain's" strategy for nailing Osama Bin Ladin. Somehow I think they'll be waiting a long time.
