If Barack Obama had made this kind of response to an interview question there would have been hell to pay with the media yet it is being IGNORED by the main stream media.
During an interview with the Des Moines Register yesterday this was the question and response that no one, other than Ben Smnith at Politico, is mentioning.

And when he was asked if he had enjoyed taxpayer-backed health care throughout his life, McCain made abundantly clear what he thought of the question.
"You know that's an interesting statement, isn't it?" he observed. "And I have never been an astronaut, but I think I know the challenges of space. And i have never done a lot of things in my life that I think I am familar with."
I mean come on folks. This is scary. This is unbelievable that he should get away with this! The only answer to him could be "So McCain, speaking of Sailboats, How's your Mother?"! utter gibberish! This is not an answer! If Obama has stated this gibberish? He would be hung out to dry on a rusty nail!
The McCain camp gets away with screaming foul on coverage and it WORKS! WHY do we not follow suit???? McCain's team of morons kicked Maureen Dowd off his crooked express plane and all I hear are crickets from the Dems? NO ONE stood up for the 1st amendment?????? Where is YOUR outrage????
I have been a Republican for the last 30 years of my voting ability life and this year I have finally had enough and will be voting for Obama but I am constantly floored at the lack of cohesiveness in this party when it comes to defiying the Republicans! THEY RUN THE MEME and we LET them.
They have lowered the expectations for the VP position so that McCains trained moron only has to show up now! and WE let them!
If the Dems do not stand up and start using the media the way the McCain camp does, we may very well regret it.
Note to the KOS members who want to come in and cry "Concern Troll" You can kiss me where the sun does not shine because I have no way of knowing if your a paid senile peanut troll, if your parents were breeding for stupid or if you really just don't get it but go read another a diary because I'm tired of your running off other peoples opinions with your sad attempts at control.
