Obama Campaign Smears McCain's Honor

Yet another promise broken by Barry. He said he would not engage in personal destructive politics and go negative. Yet, here is his campaign, doing exactly that. I even read somewhere that Barry would fire people who went so negative. I am waiting for the termination. I don't think I will get it. Here is the story:
Bill Burton, Obama's press secretary, responded in a statement: “It is shameful and downright perverse for the McCain campaign to use a bill that was written to protect young children from sexual predators as a recycled and discredited political attack against a father of two young girls – a position that his friend Mitt Romney also holds. Last week, John McCain told Time magazine he couldn't define what honor was. Now we know why."

"Honor" is a touchy issue to invoke with the former prisoner of war, but Democrats have expressed increasing exasperation — and worry — about what they see as constant distortions in McCain ads.
