Les éléments fondamentaux de l'économie américain sont solides. Et si Barack Obama avait déjà prononcé cette phrase, pour laquelle il a ridiculisé John McCain? Ne pourrait-on pas l'accuser d'hypocrisie? C'est ce que le camp McCain fait dans la pub ci-dessus. Le hic, c'est que les républicains dénaturent le sens d'un discours du candidat démocrate. Je cite le discours d'Obama dans le texte suivi du script de l'annonce :

[We need] a plan that would extend expiring unemployment benefits. For those Americans who have lost their jobs and have been working hard to find a new one, but haven't found one yet. That's part of the change we need. And then after this immediate problem, we've got the long-term fundamentals that will really make sure this economy grows. Change means tax code that doesn't reward the lobbyists who wrote it, but the American workers and small businesses that deserve it. As President I am going to eliminate capital gains taxes for small businesses and start-ups.

ANNCR: Who's Barack Obama? First, Obama attacked McCain. Then said: BARACK OBAMA: "We've got the long term fundamentals that will really make sure this economy grows." ANNCR: Strong fundamentals? Is Obama saying McCain's right? Or is Obama saying his own attacks are shameless? Either way, Obama's a hypocrite.
