John McCain attended a campaign event in Canada. Obama did not criticize him. The State Department did not send out a worldwide notification to all embassy staff not to attend Obama events and not to assist him in any way. However, the U.S. Ambassador to Canada did help John McCain and also attended the event. So in response of the apparent involvement of the Department of State and Department of Defense involvement in this election, I have decided to rename the Pentagon to Republigon and the Department of State to (IHP) Institution to Help Republicans.
The truth and the Obama wounded troops visit {Copy-edited and annotated}
{You’ll have to forgive the fellow his confusion, I think; after all, as Jake Tapper notes the Obama campaign is insisting that this speech has nothing to do with fund-raising / campaigning even when they’re email blasting copies of it with big red CONTRIBUTE icons attached. Ah, the naivete of youth.}
{Anyway: on with the corrections for grammar and spelling! – Moe Lane}
Let’s talk {some} truth{, here}! The reason {why} Obama didn’t visit the wounded troops is because {of} the Department of Defense doesn’t allow political campaigns on bases. According to the DoD {-} which is supposed to be neutral {-} {they? – hard to tell} advised Obama that his visit would be considered political.

I find {the actions of} {this past week from{} both the State Department and {the} Department of Defense {this past week to be} a little worrying. McCain visits the world and the Department of {S}tate doesn’t advise{s} every embassy for their people not to attend {his}speeches. {But when} Obama goes overseas{, and first} the State Department gets involved{. Now, then} the Department of Defense{ is involved}. I can imagine McCain organizing the reactions from both the Department of Defense and {the} Department of State. {Hey, I don’t edit for sense.} Meanwhile{,} the {D}rudge{ R}eport says {that} politics has hit the wall…{ }forgetting the fact that McCain {has also} visited the wall. McCain criticized Obama for making a speech in another country while McCain made a speech in Canada. This entire week{,} McCain has attacked Obama {-} and Obama has {reframed refrained} from attacking him.

Fox {N}ews is putting out old video to make McCain look younger{!!!!!}
{}
Karl Rove doesn’t want to talk about the fact that McCain doesn’t know when the {Anbar A}wakening happened{!!!!!}

This is all so crazy. I am a new Democrat and I’m not afraid of telling conservative propaganda mouthpieces that {their they’re} lying!
