Barack Obama's top strategist is firing back at Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin.

David Axelrod says Palin's prime-time convention address Wednesday night was dishonest about Obama's record.

Palin and other Republican speakers sought to define Obama as untested and inexperienced, making light of his past work as a community organizer in Chicago. But Axelrod says "for everyday people," that "seems like real work."

He went on to say "There wasn't one thing that she said about Obama or what he's proposing that is true."

Axelrod says the Republicans squandered an opportunity to promote their own candidate by focusing on Obama.

And of Palin's attacks, he says "for someone who makes the point that she's not from Washington, she looked very much like she would fit in very well there."

Sounds like some of you have been brained washed. It's the only thing that makes sese when it comes to supporting him. You need to check your history, facts and data before you attempt to make people believe he is anything but what he is. Kay thanks for your postings. You are accurate and you are sane. O'Bama would be the anti Christ not Jesus! Only anti Americans would vote for or support O'Bama.

Bash Jesus? Give me a break. Reread her comment again and maybe you'll understand her point. And yes, by all means, look at the founding fathers of this country for guidance. However, you'll notice, not only did they not include their personal religious beliefs in the laws of this nation, they specifically declared there should be NO STATE SPONSORED RELIGION, and NO RELIGIOUS TEST FOR HOLDING OFFICE. You see, many of the founders were fleeing religious persecution in England. They understood that State sponsor religion sucks when it is not your religion. That is why SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE is the law of this great nation. (KNOW YOUR HISTORY!!!). I say the biggest threat to this nation is religious wackos - And it appears to me, the majority call themselves "defenders" of this nation.

Kim, Just say NO to the religious fanatics. Here in this country, they are known as America's Taliban. Like their extremist islamic brothers, one can not reason with them. It is just best to let them live in their own fantasy world.

I can't beleive you are comparing Obama to Jesus???????? You Obama groupies are mental.

Kim's line of intelligence is to bash Jesus ? Well, so you know, 52 of the 55 signers of the Declaration of Independence were orthodox, deeply committed Christians. The other three all believed in the Bible as the divine truth, the God of scripture, and His personal intervention. Patrick Henry, who is called the firebrand of the American Revolution, is still remembered for his words, "Give me liberty or give me death." But in current textbooks the context of these words is deleted. Here is what he said: "An appeal to arms and the God of hosts is all that is left us. But we shall not fight our battle alone. There is a just God that presides over the destinies of nations. The battle, sir, is not of the strong alone. Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it almighty God. I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty, or give me death." No Arab's there, Kim, KNOW YOUR HISTORY.

Once again...the masses insist on listening to propaganda rather than seeking the truth. You know, Jesus was an enemy of the state and look how that went!! OBAMA 08

Wake up huh. Obama has Muslim ties with his brother in Kenya. His brother tried to overthrough the government and FAILED! Obama has wanted nothing more than to be the President ever since he entered the Senate three years ago. Also, you might want to do your homework on his attendance/voting record in the Senate.
