You must be proud.

Here's one of your most influential bloggers (you can find the link via Hot Air):

It's pretty bad when your hair is whiter than your teeth.

And here's why your opponent has discolored teeth:

"In 1968 he was offered early release, and when he refused, because others had been there longer, his captors went at him again; he suffered cracked ribs, teeth broken off at the gum line, and torture with ropes that lashed his arms behind his back and that were progressively tightened all through the night."

...

"He spent two years in solitary confinement, suffered from dysentery and even tried to commit suicide by hanging himself with his own shirt.

In 1968, the Vietnamese broke off many of his teeth at the gum and tortured him for hours on end. They offered him early release, knowing his value as an admirals son, but he refused, saying others had been held captive longer." Source Daily Mail, February 1, 2008

Two things, Senator Obama:

1). How much money did you troll from dKos, again?

2). If you liked this tactic - and until you say otherwise, I'm going to assume that you do - have you considered going after Senator McCain's inability to move his arms properly? After all, the North Vietnamese were kind enough to systematically torture those, too.

UPDATE (Dan McLaughlin): Oh, and a third question: have you considered that maybe there are reasons why your faction of the party lives in constant fear of having its patriotism questioned?
