MSM says that John McCain mocks/ridicules/etc. Obama
every time that he levels a criticism. But when Obama criticizes McCain it's just that cut and dry. Our media sucks.

1. I dont actually think framing mcains criticisms that way
Do McCain any favors. It hardens McCains positions I think, and many of his positions cant stand any hardening.

2. Makes sense, McCain is an asshole, Obama is not.
Mocking people is one of those great Repub traditions - like Dubya and his nicknames for people. :puke:

4. Problem is I don't think McCain is actually mocking Obama.
He is criticizing him for sure, but it's the media that is trying to put some kind of schoolyard neener neener spin on it.

6. And that's supposed to be good for McCain?
I think we've all had enough of the school yard bully as President.

9. I think that by painting Obama as a source of ridicule and disrespect isn't good for him.
