Republican Senator John McCain's presidential campaign alleged that McCain's democratic adversary, Barack Obama, does not know how to properly combat terrorism in a conference call. The call, which featured appearances by McCain's foreign policy advisor Randy Scheunemann and former CIA Director Jim Woolsey, claimed that Obama's plans to defend America are exactly the problems that led to the attacks of September 11th, 2001 and said the Illinois senator was a "perfect manifestation of a September 11th attitude."

McCain's supporters argued Obama does not understand the "nature" of the enemy we face in the "War on Terror." Kori Schake, McCain's senior policy advisor, emphasized that Obama's law-enforcement based approach to interrogating and prosecuting terrorists was inadequate, and that, if elected, his presidency would put our country at great risk.

Also during the call, McCain's campaign discussed the "wrong" decision made by the Supreme Court last week to grant Guantanamo Bay detainees habeas corpus rights. They said McCain believes Guantanamo should be closed, and that if the dangerous prisoners there are to be released they will likely commit attacks against America again.
