Should Obama attack McCain?

Obama was civil and I like that style myself, he made an extra effort
to stick to the point and not attack McCain the person, as McCain did,
when he pointed towards Obama and said "that one".
Here is the dialogue I wish Obama could deliver;
"Senator McCain, you keep parroting "you don't understand" as if that
is the only fault in me, thank you, just tell me if you understand, or
even hear what I have said many times and just three minutes ago ‘that
if we find where Bin Laden is holed up and the Pakistani Government
does not want to get Bin Laden, or unwilling to get him, then we will
attack the centers where he is, isn’t' that what I said? Senator
McCain, you turn around and say that ‘I will attack Pakistan. Do you
really hear it? Is that how you make you judgment calls?’
Didn't Lieberman correct you on Camera that Iran was not training
Al-Qaeda, and then you corrected yourselves it right on the CNN
camera?" Senator McCain do you understand what is going on?
"Do you want me to give you the list, or two items are enough for you
to know and back off knowing that ‘it is you who do not even hear or
understand.’”
“Senator McCain, you are the one who wants your government to buy
houses and you are calling me that I want bigger government?" Do you
understand what you are saying?
“Senator McCain, let’s focus on topics and what we need to do to create
societies of co-existence, when you talk about creating a club of
democracies, you are dividing the nations into two groups, let’s
strengthen United Nations, where the entire community of Nations can
dialogue. Please don’t continue Bushing, “you are either with us” and
bring disaster to our economy and our nation”. Do you understand that?
Personally, I know Obama would stick to the point and I admire that.
But to those gossiping Republicans who like dialogues like that, he
should deliver. Because Republicans are not looking for anything of
substance, they don't even get it that American Public is not with
their wars, with their threats, with their budget deficit, bonuses to
the criminals and with their loot in the name of deregulation.
