US ELECTIONS 08: RNC: RNC: Barack Obama Audacity Watch

/noticias.info/ “Days after securing the nomination and losing nine of the last 14 primaries, and 151 days before the general election, Barack Obama is speaking as if he has been elected and reelected. Yet, Obama has not agreed to the citizen town hall meetings the American people deserve where he must answer the tough questions any aspirant for the presidency would be expected to address. Just yesterday, Obama demonstrated his lack of preparedness by backtracking on yet another issue with regard to one of the most sensitive matters in the Middle East, the status of Jerusalem. Perhaps Senator Obama should consider demonstrating some level of readiness to serve as president before contemplating second term valedictories.”

-Danny Diaz, RNC Spokesperson



Obama Speaks As If He Has Been Elected And Reelected As President:

“A Pumped-Up Barack Obama Says He’ll Be Wrapping Up His Second Term As President When Chicago Hosts The 2016 Summer Olympics.” (“Obama Turns Out For Chicago Olympics Celebration,” The Associated Press, 6/6/08)



In His Remarks To The Annual AIPAC Policy Conference, Obama Said That Jerusalem Should Be The Undivided Capital Of Israel, But Later Said The City’s Future Should Be Negotiated By Israel And The Palestinians:

On Wednesday, Obama Said Jerusalem Would Be The Undivided Capital Of Israel. Obama: “Jerusalem will remain the capital of Israel, and it must remain undivided.” (Sen. Barack Obama, Remarks At The Annual AIPAC Policy Conference, Arlington, VA, 6/4/08)

One Day Later, Obama Said The Future Of Jerusalem Would Have To Be Negotiated By Israel And The Palestinians. CNN’s Candy Crowley: “I want to ask you about something you said in AIPAC yesterday. You said that Jerusalem must remain undivided. Do Palestinians have no claim to Jerusalem in the future?” Obama: “Well, obviously, it’s going to be up to the parties to negotiate a range of these issues.” (CNN's “The Situation Room,” 6/5/08)
