McCain Camp: Obama 'Naive' on Terrorism
John McCain's national security aides today tried to shame Barack Obama for eluding to the idea that the U.S. should take a strictly law enforcement approach to terrorism and should rely on the justice system to give the terrorists their due.
Calling Obama's remarks on ABC News yesterday "naive," "dangerous," and full of "ignorance," McCain allies say that's more proof that Obama does not have the experience to sufficiently handle that "3 a.m. phone call." Obama is the "perfect manifestation of a Sept. 10 mindset," said McCain foreign policy and national security director, Randy Scheunemann.
The Obama camp called the remarks "scare tactics."
These are the comments Obama made on ABC News that he's taking a beating for:
PD toolbar!(Obama preceded those comments by saying the NSA surveillance program and other anti-terror tactics can be executed successfully within the constraints of the Constitution, "and there has been no evidence on their part that we can't.")
McCain's camp is assailing the idea that prosecutions after the first WTC attacks in 1993 were completely successful. They say evidence from that bombing was under grand jury seal, and not shared with then-director of national intelligence, George Tenet, or then-President Clinton. (i.e., Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, dubbed the "principal architect of the 9/11 attacks," sent money to the '93 bombers, one of which was his nephew.)
The investigation of the 2001 bombing "certainly made clear that the way the criminal justice system, as applied to the perpetrators of the '93 bombing, the way it operated, was a material cause of the greater tragedy of 9/11 because it was treated as a law enforcement issue," said John Lehman, a member of the Sept. 11 Commission and McCain national security adviser, told reporters on a conference call.
Tenet "personally told me ... that he did not get to see the evidence which would have linked some of the perpetrators of the '93 bombing to Khalid Sheikh Mohammed ... [that] would have enabled many of the dots to have been connected well before 9/11 and in my belief, would have given a good chance to prevent 9/11," Lehman added.
Five years later, when the trial was over and evidence unsealed, "Tenet was flabbergasted at what he found in that material."
McCain's camp also pointed out how Osama bin Laden and KSM were indicted in abstentia in the 1990s for their terrorist plots, but they still managed to carry out attacks such as those on USS Cole, the Bali nightclub bombings, and the World Trade Center and Pentagon in 2001.
"The totally criminal justice approach to dealing with international terrorists, particularly when they're suicidal and are able to pull off plots like 9/11, has not worked," added former CIA Director Jim Woolsey. "It was a miserable failure."
I contacted the Obama campaign for comment. I'll post it here when I get it.
UPDATE: Obama advisers Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., and former counterterrorism czar Richard Clarke later told reporters in a conference call that Republicans (likely thanks to Karl Rove) were spewing false arguments aimed at scaring the American people and that many terrorists have been arrested, tried, and jailed through the U.S. justice system. They did acknowledge, however, that keeping the 1993 WTC bombing evidence under seal was a mistake.
But it's not the effectiveness of the Bush administration or our antiterror tactics that have prevented another terror attack, they said. "It's Al Qaeda that's decided not to attack the United States since 9/11," said Clarke. "We provided them a place to attack and kill Americans much more conveniently" on Sept. 11.
McCain is also trying to paint Obama as one who would allow even the elusive UBL, if captured, the right to challenge his detention in court. (The Supreme Court last week ruled that terror detainees at Gitmo have that right.) Obama supporters called that "largely a fake issue."
"This is not Barack Obama, this is the Supreme Court of the United States," Kerry said. "If John McCain were president, he would have to give him [UBL] those rights. This is a phony argument and it's typical of what the Republican playbook is – say anything, just say it, and they'll believe it."

These are the comments Obama made on ABC News that he's taking a beating for:
"And, you know, let's take the example of Guantanamo. What we know is that, in previous terrorist attacks -- for example, the first attack against the World Trade Center, we were able to arrest those responsible, put them on trial. They are currently in U.S. prisons, incapacitated. And the fact that the administration has not tried to do that has created a situation where not only have we never actually put many of these folks on trial, but we have destroyed our credibility when it comes to rule of law all around the world, and given a huge boost to terrorist recruitment in countries that say, 'Look, this is how the United States treats Muslims.' So that, I think, is an example of something that was unnecessary. We could have done the exact same thing, but done it in a way that was consistent with our laws."

Do you ever wonder why so many people are getting on the Barack Hussein Obama bus?
Could it be that this nation is becoming colorblind and does not care if a good person is black, white, red or tan?
Could it be that the American people don’t care if a person worships as a Christian, Buddhist, Muslim, Hindu, or Jew?
Could it be that people remember the scandals of the Clinton And Bush years?
Could it be that the American people know that if it was not for the Clinton’s filth and scandals that Al Gore would be completing his second term in office.
Could it be that the American people remember Bush and McCain looking into our eyes and saying, believe me there are weapons of mass destruction?
Could it be that the American people are shell shocked that over 4,000 precious lives have been lost fighting the wrong war in the wrong country against the wrong enemy?
Could it be that the American people realize that Carl Rove politics brought our nation to where it is today?

Dear Clinton supporters:
Time to wipe your tears and move on.
The Democratic Party has its nominee. The republicans in all their wisdom have theirs.
Now the choice is up to the American people.
Your Lies, bloggs, letters, petitions, threats and tears will not change that.
In November you will have to choose between.
The democratic candidate promising a change from Bush/McCain politics.
Or McCain who says he is not running on the Bush presidency. But McCain might want to check
his campaign's position papers. In his eternal quest for the Republican nomination, McCain has adopted virtually the entire Bush agenda, often reversing long held positions and compromising core principles. From Iraq, tax cuts for the wealthy, broken promises on the deficit to opposition to SCHIP, tax credits for health care, overturning Roe v. Wade and a right-wing Supreme Court, without question John McCain represents a third Bush term.
So you could be bitter, Very very bitter or you could work to save this nation.

THE INTELLECT OF JOHN MCCAIN
John McCains understanding of the economy.
Its all in your head folks.
John McCain says the economic downturn is psychological. Having on multiple occasions admitted his limited understanding of the economy, Senator McCain instead turned armchair psychologist to diagnose the U.S economic slowdown. In April, McCain told Fox News’ Neil Cavuto that a lot of our problems today, as you know, are psychological. Apparently, four months of job losses, oil at $120 a barrel, record gas prices at the pump, 47 million uninsured and a devastating home foreclosure crisis are merely figments of Americans’ imaginations.

I'm a white 60-year-old Republican Grandmother.
My home is few miles from John McCain's ranch in Northern Arizona. And No - his ranch is not in Sedona as the press likes to state, it is in Cornville. When I moved to Arizona I registered as a John McCain Republican. Unfortunately it was the OLD John McCain, before he became a clone of George Bush.
Today because of my fears for the economy.
Bush's war of revenge.
And my fear of the control of the Radical Conservative Republican's (Lower Taxes For The Rich, The Hell With The Economy)
I have been donating to Obama's Campaign.

This is a little long, but a must read.
The Jihad Candidate - by Rich Carroll
Conspiracy theories make for interesting novels when the storyline is not so absurd that it can grasp our attention. 'The Manchurian Candidate' and 'Seven Days in May' are examples of plausible chains of events that captures the reader's imagination at best-seller level. 'What if' has always been the solid grist of fiction.
Get yourself something cool to drink, find a relaxing position, but before you continue, visualize the television photos of two jet airliners smashing into the Twin Towers in lower Manhattan and remind yourself this cowardly act of Muslim terror was planned for eight years.
How long did it take Islam and their oil money to find a candidate for President of the United States? As long as it took them to place a Senator from Illinois and Minnesota? The same amount of time to create a large Muslim enclave in Detroit? The time it took them to build over 2,000 mosques in America? The same amount of time required to place radical wahabbist clerics in our military and prisons as chaplains'?
Find a candidate who can get away with lying about their father being a 'freedom fighter' when he was actually part of the most corrupt and violent government in Kenya's history. Find a candidate with close ties to The Nation of Islam and the violent Muslim overthrow in Africa, a candidate who is educated among white infidel Americans but hides his bitterness and anger behind a superficial toothy smile. Find a candidate who changes his American name of Barry to the Muslim name of Barak Hussein Obama, and dares anyone to question his true ties under the banner of 'racism'.Nurture this candidate in an atmosphere of anti-white American teaching and surround him with Islamic teachers.
Provide him with a bitter, racist, anti-white, anti-American wife, and supply him with Muslim middle east connections and Islamic monies.
Allow him to be clever enough to get away with his anti-white rhetoric and proclaim he will give $834 billion taxpayer dollars to the Muslim controlled United Nations for use in Africa.
Install your candidate in an atmosphere of deception because questioning him on any issue involving Africa or Islam would be seen as 'bigoted racism'; two words too powerful to allow the citizenry to be informed of facts. Allow your candidate to employ several black racist Nation of Islam Louis Farrakhan followers as members of his Illinois Senatorial and campaign staffs.
Where is the bloodhound American 'free press' who doggedly overturned every stone in the Watergate case? Where are our nation's reporters that have placed every Presidential candidate under the microscope of detailed scrutiny; the same press who pursue Bush's 'Skull and Bones' club or ran other candidates off with persistent detective and research work?
Why haven't 'newsmen' pursued the 65 blatant lies told by this candidate during the Presidential primaries? Where are the stories about this candidate's cousin and the Muslim butchery in Africa? Since when did our national press corps become weak, timid, and silent? Why haven't they regaled us with the long list of socialists and communists who have surrounded this 'out of nowhere' Democrat candidate or that his church reprinted the Hamas Manifesto in their bulletin, and that his 'close pastor friend and mentor' met with Middle East terrorist Moammar Gaddafi, (Guide of the First of September Great Revolution of the Socialist People's Libyan Arab Jamahiriya) Why isn't the American press telling us this candidate is supported by every Muslim organization in the world?
As an ultimate slap in the face, be blatant in the fact your candidate has ZERO interest in traditional American values and has the most liberal voting record in U.S. Senate history. Why has the American main stream media clammed-up on any negative reporting on Barak Hussein Obama? Why will they print Hillary Rodham Clinton's name but never write his middle name? Is it not his name? Why, suddenly, is ANY information about this candidate not coming from main stream media, but from the blogosphere by citizens seeking facts and the truth? Why isn't our media connecting the dots with Islam? Why do they focus on 'those bad American soldiers' while Islam slaughters non Muslims daily in 44 countries around the globe? Why does our media refer to Darfur as 'ethnic cleansing' instead of what it really is; Muslims killing non Muslims!
There is enough strange, anti-American activity surrounding Barak Hussein Obama to peek the curiosity of any reporter. WHERE IS OUR INVESTIGATIVE MEDIA!?
A formal plan for targeting America was devised three years after the Iranian revolution in 1982. The plan was summarized in a 1991 memorandum by Mohamed Akram, an operative of the global Muslim Brotherhood. 'The process of settlement' of Muslims in America, Akram explained, 'is a civilization jihad process.' This means that members of the Brotherhood must understand that their work in 'America is a kind of grand jihad in eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within and sabotaging its miserable house by their hands and the hands of the believers so that it is eliminated and God's religion is made victorious over all other religions.'
There is terrorism we can see, smell and fear, but there is a new kind of terror invading The United States in the form of Sharia law and finance. Condoning it is civilization suicide. Middle East Muslims are coming to America in record numbers and building hate infidel mosques, buying our corporations, suing us for our traditions, but they and the whole subject of Islam is white noise leaving uninformed Americans about who and what is really peaceful. Where is our investigative press? Any criticism of Islam or their intentions, even though Islamic leaders state their intentions daily around the globe, brings-forth a volley of 'racist' from the left-wing Democrat crowd.
Lies and deception behind a master plan - the ingredients for 'The Manchurian Candidate' or the placement of an anti-American President in our nation's White House? Is it mere coincidence that an anti-capitalist run for President at the same time Islamic sharia finance and law is trying to make advancing strides into the United States? Is it mere coincidence this same candidate wants to dis-arm our nuclear capability at a time when terrorist Muslim nations are expanding their nuclear weapons capability? Is it mere coincidence this candidate wants to reduce our military at a time of global jihad from Muslim nations?
Change for America? What change? To become another 'nation of Islam'?
'It is impossible to rightly govern the world without God or the Bible.' George Washington
COULD IT BE THE REASON OUR COUNTRY HAS NOT BEEN UNDER ATTACK SINCE 9-11 IS BECAUSE THE MUSLIMS HAVE AN AGENDA TO TAKE OVER OUR GOVERNMENT BY PLACING A MUSLIM IN THE PRESIDENCY. IT MAY COME TO PASS IF AMERICANS DON'T WAKE UP!!

Since when did our national press corps become weak, timid, and silent? Why haven't they regaled us with the long list of socialists and communists who have surrounded this 'out of nowhere' Democrat candidate or that his church reprinted the Hamas Manifesto in their bulletin, and that his 'close pastor friend and mentor' met with Middle East terrorist Moammar Gaddafi, (Guide of the First of September Great Revolution of the Socialist People's Libyan Arab Jamahiriya) Why isn't the American press telling us this candidate is supported by every Muslim organization in the world?
As an ultimate slap in the face, be blatant in the fact your candidate has ZERO interest in traditional American values and has the most liberal voting record in U.S. Senate history. Why has the American main stream media clammed-up on any negative reporting on Barak Hussein Obama? Why will they print Hillary Rodham Clinton's name but never write his middle name? Is it not his name? Why, suddenly, is ANY information about this candidate not coming from main stream media, but from the blogosphere by citizens seeking facts and the truth? Why isn't our media connecting the dots with Islam? Why do they focus on 'those bad American soldiers' while Islam slaughters non Muslims daily in 44 countries around the globe? Why does our media refer to Darfur as 'ethnic cleansing' instead of what it really is; Muslims killing non Muslims!
There is enough strange, anti-American activity surrounding Barak Hussein Obama to peek the curiosity of any reporter. WHERE IS OUR INVESTIGATIVE MEDIA!?
A formal plan for targeting America was devised three years after the Iranian revolution in 1982. The plan was summarized in a 1991 memorandum by Mohamed Akram, an operative of the global Muslim Brotherhood. 'The process of settlement' of Muslims in America, Akram explained, 'is a civilization jihad process.' This means that members of the Brotherhood must understand that their work in 'America is a kind of grand jihad in eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within and sabotaging its miserable house by their hands and the hands of the believers so that it is eliminated and God's religion is made victorious over all other religions.'
There is terrorism we can see, smell and fear, but there is a new kind of terror invading The United States in the form of Sharia law and finance. Condoning it is civilization suicide. Middle East Muslims are coming to America in record numbers and building hate infidel mosques, buying our corporations, suing us for our traditions, but they and the whole subject of Islam is white noise leaving uninformed Americans about who and what is really peaceful. Where is our investigative press? Any criticism of Islam or their intentions, even though Islamic leaders state their intentions daily around the globe, brings-forth a volley of 'racist' from the left-wing Democrat crowd.
Lies and deception behind a master plan - the ingredients for 'The Manchurian Candidate' or the placement of an anti-American President in our nation's White House? Is it mere coincidence that an anti-capitalist run for President at the same time Islamic sharia finance and law is trying to make advancing strides into the United States? Is it mere coincidence this same candidate wants to dis-arm our nuclear capability at a time when terrorist Muslim nations are expanding their nuclear weapons capability? Is it mere coincidence this candidate wants to reduce our military at a time of global jihad from Muslim nations?
Change for America? What change? To become another 'nation of Islam'?
'It is impossible to rightly govern the world without God or the Bible.' George Washington
COULD IT BE THE REASON OUR COUNTRY HAS NOT BEEN UNDER ATTACK SINCE 9-11 IS BECAUSE THE MUSLIMS HAVE AN AGENDA TO TAKE OVER OUR GOVERNMENT BY PLACING A MUSLIM IN THE PRESIDENCY. IT MAY COME TO PASS IF AMERICANS DON'T WAKE UP!!
