SOUND CLIPS FOR FRIDAY, JULY 25, 2008

OBAMA’S DAY

1. THE WALLS – OBAMA (:40)

Senator Barack Obama delivered a speech at the Victory Tower in Berlin, Germany in front of a crowd of 200,000 krauts, according to German newspapers. His message of a new day, new time, and new hope was well received. In this clip, he channels President Ronald Reagan.

2. MORE, NOT LESS – OBAMA (:23)

Senator Barack Obama, in Kennedy-esque fashion, tells the citizens of the world that it’s time to do more, not less. Something along the lines of, “Ask not what the world can do for you, ask what you can do for the world.”

3. I LOVE AMERICA – OBAMA (:32)

Senator Barack Obama wanted to make one thing clear: While America is not perfect, I still love my country. He somehow managed to get both the European crowd and middle America to cheer. Amazing.

4. TIME TO REMAKE THE WORLD – OBAMA (:42)

His closing statement. …And the crowd goes wild!

McCAIN’S DAY

5. IRAQ THE FIRST MAJOR CONFLICT SINCE 9/11-McCAIN (:33)

Senator John McCain with yet another foreign policy gaffe; and believe it or not, this one is from the same Katie Couric interview where he messed up the timeline of “le surge”. McCain claims Iraq must be won because it is the first major conflict since 9/11. Ummm, remember that Afghanistan problem? You know, the base of operations where Al Qaeda resides and planned 9/11?

6. …AND THAT’S JUST THE PRESS CORPS – McCAIN (:25)

Senator John McCain spoke before a Lance Armstrong sponsored benefit and threw out a zinger that he thought was HILLARIOUS.
