List of distorted ads.

"But they're effective"

Yes, lie... as long as their "effective", who cares about honesty? Let's just lie our way into the white house.

Tell me about it. Good post. I'm stunned how much his campaign has turned into total misrepresentation and lies, that so many would either be blind or willing to eat it just to keep Obama out of office is - yet again, just as in last election - a fascinating study into the makeup of the citizenry.

First Ad:

Second Ad:

A slight distortion. Barack did in fact cancel a trip to Landstuhl Regional Medical Center after weeks of planning. Afterward the camp made a wide array of statements as to what the reason was. Press and cameras were not permitted and it is likely he did go to the gym since he does often.

The distortion lies in assuming that it was because of the cameras.

Third Ad:
Now this video is making distortions.

That campaign ad is referring to troops serving in Iraq and funding, not pro-veteran legislation.

Fourth Ad:
Another distortion.

John McCain has passed campaign finance reform and has upset special interests and lobbyists. The number of lobbyists working for his campaign is irrelevant, the ad is true.

Fifth Ad:
I guess they ran out of material.

John McCain's plan doesn't include just drilling. The 2030 projection is widely contested and the T Boone. clip is way out of context (He says seconds before "I say drill, drill, drill").

---

For the closing we're treated with clips from opinion articles. This video is garbage.

i wish that were true, e.p. venom, but look who we have already elected not once, but for two terms
our people elect the representatives they (we) deserve

lying and deception have become accepted politics

Please. People are so dumb they follow Nobama like cattle to the slaughter house.

I don't know what the youtube ad and I have no intention of looking. Mostly because I am not that dumb as to be baited like that.

Yeah, this was never a problem before Bush. Politicians were standup type of people we could always trust.
