McCain joins Obama on offshore drilling

[dkf]

WASHINGTON: A day after Senator Barack Obama said he could support broad energy legislation even though it would permit offshore oil drilling, which he has opposed, an aide to Senator John McCain said Sunday that he too might support such a package.

1. ok this article p'd me off.

my gripe.

Perhaps goaded by the ads, Obama said last week that he was being attacked partly because he had a "funny-sounding name" and did not look like past presidents. The remark from Obama, an Illinois Democrat who seeks to become the first black president, brought a charge from a top McCain aide that Obama was "playing the race card."

Graham vigorously defended such criticism of Obama. "He is living off celebrity, not ideas," the South Carolinian told Fox News. Referring to Obama's comment, he said, "To say that that's not trying to interject the idea that you're a victim of John McCain trying to make fun of your name and your racial background is a lie."

When did this crap become part of the Offshore Drilling issue?

So they put 2 news stories into one and shove it all under the heading of: McCain joins Obama on offshore drilling

Frickin' pos media with the sly, snakey underhanded articles.

Ok, done ranting and gnashing teeth.
