Yeah, so what? I said that John McWayne was a phony war hero. Should Obama distance himself from my remarks?

Obama is already on the record when it comes to calling John McCain a war hero. Should I distance myself from Obama for saying that?

Asker's Comment:

Here is Your clue...

Ed Shultz was at an Obama rally. Just as John McCain denounced a radio shock jock for saying "Hussien" 3 times... Obama should have denouced "Warmonger" from his surrogate. His campaign has done just that. You are simply a low level moron who chooses to insult real heroes.

Answer 2

McCain IS a WARMONGER

you dont denounce something that is TRUE

Answer 3

Unlikely, he says one thing and he is doing the other.

Source(s):

Hussien Is Obama middle name and is also true.

Answer 4

no.

it's obviously true.

Answer 5

Obama's camp came out that same day and said "McCain should not be called a warmonger nor should he be referred to as a warmonger" or something to that effect.

Its already happened chief.

Answer 6

I think there's been too much denouncing on both sides....I'm denouncing the word "denounce".....and "repudiate"....and "distancing from".....and besides.....when you stand too close to actual warmongers....sometimes you're gonna get painted with the same brush.

Answer 7

Not really, but it would be WONDERFUL if he felt that he had to and then went ahead and did it. That would signal that his candidacy is as weak as I believe it to be.

McCain is gonna CRUSH this guy (Obama).

Those of you who have drunk too much of Barry's Kool-Aid should ignore the preceding statement - it WILL be injurious to your health!

Answer 8

I don't know how any Democrat can call anyone a WAR-monger when every major war we have had since WW1 has had a Democrat as the sitting President. Every single one!! WW1 WW2 Korea and Vietnam-----And you cannot seriously categorize Iraq as a WAR its a conflict not a WAR!----Shall we call Bill Clinton a war monger for Kosovo/Bosnia/Serbia/Somalia? I think by the Democrats definition yes we can and should.

Answer 9

Already happened and I don't see why anyone should denounce such a comment. Obviously, its true

Answer 10

Why ? Do you think that Obama or any other who is running for President should be responsible for what other people think and say. WE live in a democracy, don't you think so.??

Answer 11

How can Shultz be criticized for speaking the truth? McCain is a warmonger.

Answer 12

If he does it is only a diplomatic move, because the truthfully McCain is a warmonger.

Answer 13

Actualy it's true. McCain loves war and is itching to start one.

We all know this. Why pretend and be offended?

Obama might have to denounce it because Americans can't handle the truth about anything anymore, but in fact it is probably true and accurate.

Answer 14

If he does will he be sincere this time? Let's face it if Osama denounces Shultz then he comes off as weak, the same way as if he had denounced Wright. Osama will probably just make excuses for Shultz just like he did for Wright...then he'll toss "typical" white people under the Osama bus...

Answer 15

I would hope that Obama wouldn't lower himself to even pay any attention to an obscure, creepy, ginger radio hack from Fargo.

I would rather see Obama concentrate on addressing the issues rather than constantly diverting off on meaninless tangents to deal with the endless barage of pissiness from either his opponents or from his supporters.

This whole election mess has gotten silly to the point where you almost wonder if Paris Hilton and the Muppets are secretly orchestrating the whole thing.
