GOP Assails Obama For "Negative" Views, Democrats Accuse McCain Backers Of Trying To Assassinate Obama's Character - CBS News
(CBS) On the heels of Gov. Sarah Palin's statement yesterday that Sen. Barack Obama does not see America as "a force for good in the world," Rep. Heather Wilson, R-N.M., accused the Democratic presidential nominee of "talking down America."
Referring to his visit to Germany where he said of America, "We've made our share of mistakes," Wilson said, "We've always had this history of saying, well, you know, 'Politics end at the water's edge.' And it didn't for Barack Obama. He has been critical not only of the president but of American policy and hence has kind of a negative view of America in the world."

Senator Barack Obama in Germany
Well what did Barack Obama say about our country. This is from his Germany speech. I know my country has not perfected itself. At times, we’ve struggled to keep the promise of liberty and equality for all of our people. We’ve made our share of mistakes, and there are times when our actions around the world have not lived up to our best intentions.
First Obama said that his country has not perfected itself. Our country is not the land, federal buildings or laws. Our country are it's people. This is why when President Ronald Reagan addressed the United Nations he said. My people have sent me here today to speak for them as citizens of the world, which they truly are, for we Americans are drawn from every nationality represented in this chamber today. We understand that men and women of every race and creed can and must work together for peace. We stand ready to take the next steps down the road of cooperation through verifiable arms reduction.
President Reagan saw this country made up of the people of the world from every race and creed. A country ready to help the world in peace.
Second he said, "we’ve struggled to keep the promise of liberty and equality for all of our people." If we are struggling does this mean we are not doing it? I thought affirmative action was suppose to make this right. Does Barack Obama believe this is not working? Motivation for affirmative action is a desire to redress negative effects of actual or perceived, past or current discrimination that is regarded as unfair by relevant legislative bodies.
Third, Obama said,"We’ve made our share of mistakes." Barack please list the mistake that America has done around the world? Please tell me when our best intentions were wrong. Tell the American people and the world, what you don't like about America.
Maybe Barack Obama believes like Rev. Wright, his pastor for 20 years.
“The government lied about inventing the HIV virus as a means of genocide against people of color. The government lied.”
“We bombed Hiroshima. We bombed Nagasaki. And we nuked far more than the thousands in New York and the Pentagon and we never batted an eye.”
“We have supported state terrorism against the Palestinians and black South Africans, and now we are indignant because of stuff we have done overseas is now brought back into our own backyard. America's chickens coming home to roost.”
“The government gives them the drugs, builds bigger prisons, passes
three-strike laws and wants them to sing God Bless America. No! No No! God **** America … for killing innocent people. God **** America for threatening citizens as less than humans. God **** America as long as she tries to act like she is God and supreme.”
“Barack knows what it means living in a country and a culture that is
controlled by rich, white people. Hillary would never know that.”
“Hillary ain’t never been called a n***8r. Hillary has never had a people defined as a non-person.”
“Hillary is married to Bill, and Bill has been good to us. No he ain’t!
Bill did us, just like he did Monica Lewinsky. He was riding dirty.”
Barack Obama describes longtime pastor Jeremiah Wright Jr. as "like an uncle" and a spiritual mentor. And Barack didn't know what Rev Jeremiah Wright said in his church? Didn't know what his spiritual mentor believed? Is Rev Wright the crazy uncle or Obama the lying Senator?
