Obama Campaign Doesn't Want 'Lectures' From McCain Campaign
It's officially now a spat between the Obama and McCain campaigns over the resignation of James Johnson.
Obama spokesman Bill Burton just came back with this statement in response to the McCain campaign's latest comments:
“We don’t need any lectures from a campaign that waited fifteen months to purge the lobbyists from their staff, and only did so because they said it was a ‘perception problem.' It’s too bad their campaign is still rife with lobbyist influence and doesn’t see a similar ‘perception problem’ with the man currently running their own vice presidential selection process, a prominent DC lobbyist whose firm has represented Exxon and a top Enron executive, or their campaign chair and John McCain’s top economic adviser Carly Fiorina, who presided over thousands of layoffs at Hewlett Packard while receiving a $21 million severance package and $650,000 in mortgage assistance.”

Obama is way too thin skinned. His constant whining is becoming unbearable.
Since when did pointing out double standards and contradictions in your opponents statements become being thin skinned and whining?

It is difficult to believe George the Third's ((George III) John McCain's new title) finger pointing when a majority of his top fund raisers are either lobbyists or by members of the financial services industry. So George III, clean your house first before you lecture others about the tidiness of theirs.
