McCain Responds to Obama's Berlin Speech

By Jeralyn

John McCain takes a shot at Sen. Barack Obama and his Berlin speech today:

While Barack Obama took a premature victory lap today in the heart of Berlin, proclaiming himself a 'citizen of the world,' John McCain continued to make his case to the American citizens who will decide this election. Barack Obama offered eloquent praise for this country, but the contrast is clear. John McCain has dedicated his life to serving, improving and protecting America. Barack Obama spent an afternoon talking about it."

To say Barack Obama has done nothing to improve or protect this country except talk about it for one afternoon is absurd. Obama's been talking about nothing else for 18 months.

I can't think of a single contribution by John McCain that improved America, despite his decades of opportunity to do so. He's got the wrong policies for America. I can think of many improvements, particularly to the lives of Americans on economic issues and issues like health care that a Democratic administration will bring.

McCain's response is sour grapes. He sounds like a sore loser, which hopefully he will be in November.
