Obama Responds To Giuliani

"Rudy Giuliani today has taken the politics of fear to a new low and I believe Americans are ready to reject those kind of politics," Obama said in a statement. "America's mayor should know that when it comes to 9-11 and fighting terrorists, America is united. We know we can win this war based on shared purpose, not the same divisive politics that question your patriotism if you dare to question failed policies that have made us less secure."

Ok Mr. Obama, let's hear your ideas on fighting terrorism. Republicans have come up with dozens of ideas of fighting terrorism and going on the "offensive". Democrats have, rightfully so, gotten the reputation of being on the "defensive" side of the issue. So, what concrete ideas do you have? Anything? Tell me you're a bit more then speeches about hope and fluffy clouds and such.

It takes more than simple "Audacity of hope" to run this country and protect it from threats. It takes leadership abilities and radical ideas that sometimes don't work. The only thing I've heard from Democrats is complaints about the ideas that Republicans come up with. So, where's your ideas Mr. Obama, the world is waiting.

Or are you going to pull a John Kerry and say "I have ideas, but I'm not going to tell you unless you elect me President". If you truly believe Hillary Clinton's statement of "We have to protect our country from terrorism -- it shouldn't be a Democratic fight or a Republican fight", then you should be telling the President, the CIA, and anyone else who'll listen your ideas for fighting terrorism.

Or you could tell us your ideas of how to pay off our national debt. Universal healthcare has been floated around lately, but people complain about the national debt, so how do you plan to pay for it? Democrats complain about the national debt, but they put in pork spending for spinach and peanut farmers into a military budget bill.

So do us all a favor, stop complaining and start doing, people love a go getter.
