Obama takes a punch — and punches back

I’ve often wondered if Barack Obama might not have a glass jaw; and technically the smear from the Fox Noise Channel didn’t really test him because they threw the punch below the belt. But I think we know now that the Senator can fight back in style:
“To be clear, Senator Obama has never been a Muslim, was not raised a Muslim, and is a committed Christian who attends the United Church of Christ in Chicago. Furthermore, the Indonesian school Obama attended in Jakarta is a public school that is not and never has been a Madrassa.
“These malicious, irresponsible charges are precisely the kind of politics the American people have grown tired of, and that Senator Obama is trying to change by focusing on bringing people together to solve our common problems.”
Obama communications director Robert Gibbs said, “We won’t take allegations that are patently untrue lying down.”
Hillary punched back as well.
