Obama Accuses McCain of Dishonesty in New Ad
(CBS)
(CHICAGO) Barack Obama is taking the gloves off today and going after John McCain in a new ad called "Honor." The ad uses McCain’s own ads to argue that he is running a dishonest campaign.
“Honor” begins by quoting McCain, "I will not take the low road to the highest office in this land," but the narrator quickly chimes in, "What happened to John McCain?” After quoting a slew of newspaper editorials that call McCain’s ads, sleazy, dishonest, and deceiving, the narrator says, "It seems 'deception' is all he's got left."
The new ad comes just a day after GOP strategist Karl Rove said the McCain campaign has gone too far with some its ads.
“McCain has gone, in some of his ads, similarly one step too far in sort of attributing to Obama things that are, you know, beyond the 100 percent truth test,” Rove said yesterday on Fox News.
The DNC also launched a new web page today to counter claims made in McCain ads as well as on the campaign trail. The site, called “Count the Lies,” currently has 51 “fact checks” questioning McCain record and allegations he’s made against Obama.

= Another McCain Comment Troll.
Let''s stick to the issues, people.
America deserves better than this.

Not taken seriously by anyone capable of thinking
Thanks for being an adult. Again Republicans show they can stoop lower, attack the person to avoid the issues. Let''s all just shout instead of talk.

I don''t know about the sutff you didn''t lie about but McSame has certainly been called out for the lies he has been telling the last few days. He is a liar and cannot hide Palin away from the press as the campaign is still too long from finishing. McSame is toast. The new polls coming out this week will start to reflect reality. Then watch McSame''s lying pick up but everyone is on to him now. :)

That is quite interesting as I saw McSame say about a month ago that he did not know how to send emails. Have you folks any shame at all? Why must you constantly twist and spin things away from the truth? It is OBVIOUS that you folks do not research things on your own but repeat whatever you hear that fat, drugg addict Rush Limbaugh says. Use your own brain (if that is possible)...
= Obama is doomed. End of story.

Well, if true, the first line of your post will take out the GOP faithful as you folks lack common sense. You get fired up over an Empty skirt, then you buy McSame''s lies even when the evidence of him lying is staring you in the face. If that didn''t work, don''t know what will. Lastly, I would bet you my whole paycheck that Obama will win this election! Most of America is not as dim-witted and out of touch with reality as you GOP faithful folks.
Solutions can only emerge within the current systems around which our societies are now structured. So how could he possibly ever be a visionary, someone who will be a leader ? At best he will be faced with alternatives presented to him in a language he doesn''t fully understand, explaining structures he doesn''t understand, and trying to adjust to behaviors driven by streams and dynamics of consciousness he doesn''t understand.
So lets all do him a big favor : thank him for the quality of his outstanding contribution to the country, and send him home. Let''s not make him face issues he will just not be able to get his head around. The world has changed too much.
So If you truly love Mc Cain, come voting day, give him Peace. Send him home.
How do you think that a guy who doesn''t understand how to use the internet himself, can possibly understand the new order, the new structures, the way information moves, the way business is made, the way terrorist network function, the way the army of the future should be structured and organized, the way the economy of the future will function, if he can''t understand how the current one works ?
Yes, Russia. "Oh, I would do that, if Russia goes back to Georgia", she said.
So perky. Any idea how many troops THAT would take? D R A F T.
Medvedev addressed her comments the next day and said Russia will not be deterred and that Palin''s ideas of having former socialist republics which border Russia, in NATO is not acceptable, that Russia has a need for a sphere of influence. She is not deterred either.
This means war.
And a losing proposition, a war with no supply lines, against a nuclear power on their turf.
Did Palin take history in college?
Please REGISTER and vote no to the PALIN wars in Russia. Yes wars. Two. Ukraine and South Ossetia/Georgia. Listen to the interview or read the transcript. WAR with Russia.
That''s our pit-bull. Actually, that''s a delusional candidate, who should be rejected by the vast majority of Americans if/when they find out.
WAR WITH RUSSIA. A DRAFT.
Two fronts, against Russia.
Insane? Armageddon?
VOTE OBAMA 2008. End the delusional campaign of Palin before she is running for President in 2012.
There are voice activated computer programs for typing by voice. My assistant had one, when I was in a federal agency.
McCain knows so little of modern technology, he doesnt even understand the practical options available.
That''s why he is a weak candidate to lead the USA into the modern age of engineering and technology. He doesnt understand it at all.
Thanks, but no thanks !
Me neither.
But I think we are again facing a clear example of truth stretching ... I think chihuahua would have been a more suitable breed ? more accurate ? With some sort of genetic parrot mix ? What do u people think ?
It is also disgusting how Obama and the DNC promote sexism - note his pat on his wife''s butt whenever she''s on stage, his regular use of "sweetie" and his total disregard of white women voters - "typical white women" has destroyed the democrats credibility. So - the only thing they can do - is attack a woman - Gov. Palin - to try to get pats on their good ole boys'' backs, or try to attack Sen. McCain''s honor. It is appalling - the democrats have shown they do not share the values of the average, hard-working middle-class and proud American - especially those who have sacrificed for their country.
Obama and the DNC are running the most disgusting campaign I have ever seen in 5 decades. It is repulsive.
