...Campaign At last, someone is smart enough to address publicly the nastiness of the McCain campaign. Joe Klein has spelled it out exactly as it is [Sept. 29]. I cannot help wondering if his age and melanoma history have caught up with this man, resulting in a certain volatility in his behavior - on top of the craven politics of his party and the current Administration. If he is elected, we will not have four more years of the Bush Doctrine, but four more years of Dick Cheney, Karl Rove and Donald Rumsfeld rolled into one. Mary Helen Haskell, Bloomington...
...Campaigning for Obama? In "The Lying Game," Joe Klein deployed his facts selectively to argue that Senator John McCain is running a dishonest campaign [Sept. 29]. Wow - so Barack Obama hasn't told any lies? Klein then predicted that things would change in the debates, since "it isn't easy to tell lies when your opponent is standing right next to you." Oops! After that column appeared, 70 million people watched and heard Vice-Presidential candidate Joe Biden tell 15 documented falsehoods, including the claim that he regularly patronizes Katie's Restaurant, in Wilmington, Delaware, which has been closed...
...Campaign Joe Klein claims there is little "moral equivalency" between McCain's brand of lying and Obama's, with the former's ranging anywhere from the "annoying to the sleazy" [Sept. 29]. And Klein could think of only one instance when Obama crossed the line (though never calling it a lie), whereas McCain has turned it into an art form. Absent from the list of Obama's "lies" is his declaration that McCain is OK with the war in Iraq continuing for 100 years if need be. That pronouncement far exceeds any exaggerations from the McCain camp. The media...
...Klein's article on McCain's campaign strategy didn't pull many punches, but I was surprised at the subliminal message in the shape of the illustration. So, McCain is halfway to being a fascist, is he? Opportunist, clearly. Sexist, in that he deliberately chose a woman for running mate once Obama made it clear he wasn't running with Clinton - probably. But fascist? Peter Kendall, LONDON...
...last, someone is smart enough to address publicly the nastiness of the McCain campaign. Klein has spelled it out exactly as it is. I can't help wondering if McCain's age and melanoma history have caught up with him. One day, he is cordial and soft-spoken; another day, he is harsh and condemning. If he is elected, we will not have four more years of the Bush Doctrine but four more years of Bush, Cheney, Karl Rove and Donald Rumsfeld rolled into one. God help us.
