An excerpt...
"Cindy McCain takes a lob ball and hits it out of the park.
Nice swing, Cindy.

Cindy McCain spoke out at a couple of rallies yesterday on the pride she feels for her country.
FOX News You Decide 2008 reported:

“I am proud of my country,” John McCain’s wife, Cindy, said at a campaign stop in Brookfield, Wis., Tuesday. “I don’t know if you heard those words earlier... but I am very proud of my country.”

During a follow up press conference, the Arizona senator was asked if they were responding to Michelle Obama and he deferred to his wife.

She responded: “I just wanted to make the statement that I have and always will be proud of my country.”

An article in the conservative magazine Commentary on Tuesday said Michelle Obama’s comments suggest “the pseudo-messianic nature of the Obama candidacy is very much a part of the way the Obamas themselves are feeling.”

“Can it really be there has not been a moment during that time when she felt proud of her country?” the article asked. “Forget matters like the victory in the Cold War; how about only things that have made liberals proud — all the accomplishments of inclusion? How about the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1991? Or Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s elevation to the Supreme Court?”

Michelle Obama was born in 1964, meaning her adult life began roughly in the early ’80s."
