Stop Him Before He Gets More Experience: FRANK RICH - Obama ; U.S. Prepares War on Russia by FRANK RICH - The New York Times Sunday Feb 11th, 2007 RICH: If time in the United States Senate is what counts for presidential seasoning, maybe Barack Obamas two years worth is already too much.
THE COMPLETE ARTICLE WITH ALL HYPERLINKS AND MORE --> Obama Got It Right The New York Times OP-ED COLUMNIST Stop Him Before He Gets More Experience By FRANK RICH Published: February 11, 2007 As the official Barack Obama rollout reaches its planned climax on 60 Minutes tonight, well learn if he has the star power to upstage Anna Nicole Smith. But at least one rap against him can promptly be laid to rest: his lack of experience. If time in the United States Senate is what counts for presidential seasoning, maybe his two years worth is already too much. Better he get out now, before theres another embarrassing nonvote on a nonbinding measure about what will soon be a four-year-old war. History is going to look back and laugh at last weeks farce, with the Virginia Republican John Warner voting to kill a debate on his own anti-surge resolution and the West Virginia Democrat Robert Byrd seizing the occasion for an hourlong soliloquy on coal mining. As the Senate pleasured itself with parliamentary one-upmanship, the rate of American casualties in Iraq reached a new high. The day after the resolution debacle, I spoke with Senator Obama about the war and about his candidacy. Since we talked by phone, I cant swear he was clean, but he was definitely articulate. He doesnt yet sound as completely scripted as his opponents though some talking-point-itis is creeping in and he isnt remotely defensive as he shrugs off the race contretemps du jour prompted by his White House run. Not that hes all sweetness and light. If the criterion is how long youve been in Washington, then we should just go ahead and assign Joe Biden or Chris Dodd the nomination, he said. What people are looking for is judgment. --MORE-- http://mparent7777.blogspot.com/2007/02/stop-him-before-he-gets-more-experience.html Labels: Barack Obama, Bush, Democrats, Dick Cheney, Elections 2008, FRANK RICH, Hillary Clinton, Iraq, Joe Lieberman, McCarthyism, News, Politics, President 2008, Rahm Emanuel, Republicans, The New York Times Obama would consider missile strikes on Iran | Chicago Tribune http://tinyurl.com/7hle7 Gates prepares for a large-scale war with Iran, North Korea, China and Russia http://tinyurl.com/342clu And More http://mparent7777.blogspot.com/ New website http://mparent7777-2.blogspot.com/ Alternate website with unique articles CRIMES AND CORRUPTIONS OF THE NEW WORLD ORDER NEWS MARC PARENT mparent7777 mparent --------------------------------- Share your photos with the people who matter at Yahoo!
