Senator Barack Obama Refutes McCain/Palin's Version of "Pro-Americans" and the Silly "Real America" Rhetoric


"There are no real or fake parts of this country," he said, a reference to a Sarah Palin speech in North Carolina in which she said she was happy to be in "the real America" and praised "the pro-America areas of this great nation." Obama continued: "We are not separated by the pro-America and anti-America parts of this nation—we all love this country, no matter where we live or where we come from. There are patriots who supported this war in Iraq and patriots who opposed it, patriots who believe in Democratic policies and those who believe in Republican policies. The men and women from Indiana and all across America who serve on our battlefields may be Democrats and Republicans and Independents, but they have fought together and bled together and some died together under the same proud flag. They have not served a red America or a blue America—they have served the United States of America."

Compare this sentiment with the divisive rhetoric of Palin and McCain.

No wonder even the RED states are leaning toward Sen. Obama.

PS. Sarah Palin was in Fort Wayne, IN, this weekend and pulled a crowd of 13,000.

Just sayin'.
