OK. Here's the video of Obama's comments last night in the Democratic Debate that he would reserve the right to do something about Al-Qaeda if they are "forming a base in Iraq" once he succeeds in pulling American Forces out of Iraq as President:

Now, here is John McCain beating him over the head with those comments today:

As Lane pointed out in an earlier post, Obama had his standard lame line in response to McCain:

"I said, well I would always reserve the right to go in and strike against al Qaeda if they were in Iraq," Obama said. "So, you know, this is how politics works. McCain thought that he could make a clever point by saying, 'Well, let me give you some news Barack, al Qaeda IS in Iraq,' like I wasn't reading the papers. Like I didn't know what was going on."

Obama went on to lay the blame for terrorist activity in Iraq on McCain's shoulders. "But I have some news for John McCain," Obama said, "and that was that there's no such thing as al Qaeda in Iraq until George Bush and John McCain decided to invade Iraq!"

NOW FOR THE BEST - McCain responded to Obama's response this afternoon:

Update: McCain adds in a just released statement:

Where is the audacity of hope when it comes to backing the success of our troops all the way to victory in Iraq? What we heard last night was the timidity of despair. Our allies deserve better, our soldiers deserve better, and so do the American people."

Game - Set - Match, John McCain! Priceless!
