Battling presidential campaign ads

Obama has told me how he wants to involve America, John "Big Mac" shows me how he wants to reward the rich.

How will McCain's plans pay the debt of G.W. Bush? how can we pay our debts if all our jobs are oversees? How will giving leases to oil companies who won't drill on leases they already have put one drop of gas into your "made in Mexico" PT cruiser?

How does portraying Obama as the Antichrist prove the integrity of the GOP?

But Obama IS the Antichrist and I want my 15 percent!

"You guys want an issue ad, well, here you go. He even makes the positive case for his own candidacy"

that's an "issue ad?" more like a hybrid of attack ad and empty promises. it's no wonder the right avoids issue ads, they don't even know what they are. the most positive thing about it is that he has finally moved above the childish ads. unfortunately, he still is lying about obama and not giving any specifics on his own promises.

"the real obama promises higher taxes"

yeah, higher taxes for big earners (the same who bush favored while he screwed the middle class and poor), but most middle class (and the majority of people) would see lower taxes. mccain supports bush's tax cuts of 2001 and 2003 to the upper crust who already have so much they don't know what to blow it on next.

these attacks are the same lies that bush leveled at kerry in 2004, as factcheck points out (guess mccain really is mcsame after all).

"more government spending"

mccain says he will give more tax cuts on top of the 2001 and 2003 cuts (in the bush mold) and still be able to balance the budget. that's not only improbable but total bull:

"therefore, fewer jobs"

based on republican myth that government spending causes job loss, or what? i never understood this correlation. not that it matters, because obama wants to invest in renewable energy technologies, thereby creating new jobs in a growing sector of the energy market. he wants to help retool car manufacturers to design, build and sell more efficient cars, creating more jobs in the process. of either candidate, obama is trusted more by a majority of people to improve our economy which would in fact lower the unemployment rate. obama wants to take away tax breaks from companies that ship jobs overseas. mccain wants bigger tax cuts for them, and for companies across the board (including big oil).

And here is Obama's attack ad against McCain. Funny, I thought he was post-partisan and above attack ads. I guess he's no different than your typical politician, huh?"

obama's attack ad? why didn't i hear the "this is barack obama, and i approved this message" at the end? and if it is an attack ad, it's a good one, because it uses his own words to tie him to bush's policies. mccain does support bush's tax cuts and wants even more despite the HUGE deficit.
