Bush and McCain Are Following Obama's Foreign Policy Lead

"Rahm: Bush and McCain Are Following Obama's Foreign Policy Lead

July 17, 2008 4:23 PM

House Democratic Caucus Chair Rep. Rahm Emanuel, D-Ill., today claimed
that President Bush (not to mention Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz.) are
following the lead of Sen. Barack Obama, D-Illinois, in foreign
policy.

"Who is leading who on foreign policy?" asked Emanuel in a statement.
"The Bush administration is right to follow Senator Obama's lead by
engaging in diplomatic efforts with Iran, cracking down on Al Qaeda,
and supporting additional troops in Afghanistan. But in every case,
it's politics first, policy second - first the Bush administration and
Senator McCain play political games, and then they decide to do the
right thing and follow Senator Obama's lead."
