Obama ads use GOP against McCain

All I can say is, ouch... and ouch. Watch Obama's latest ads below. The first, relies on McCain's frequently touted hero, because Reagan is just about the only thing Republicans have to be proud of. The second, well, Miss Alaska provided that material herself.

Obama ad upbraids McCain on equal pay

An unannounced spot by the Obama camp features former Goodyear employee Lilly Ledbetter discussing how getting paid less than the men at her job affected her family.

The ad lambasts Sen. McCain for his belief that equal pay isn't an issue for women.

McCain camp responds: "Barack Obama claims he's for equal pay for women, but women working in his Senate office earn an average of $9,000 less than men, while women in John McCain's Senate office earn an average of nearly $2,000 more than men. American women understand that real leadership is about what you do, not just what you say."

Apparently McCain has had enough

"Enough is enough!" proclaims the latest McCain ad. ::Eye roll:: 

I'm not sure if he realizes this slogan would work wonders against his ticket. He's clearly going for the emphatic fed-up schtick, I mean, which politician doesn't? Anyway, take a gander ya'll.

McCain's latest ad distorts Obama policy

I'm lovin' the reality checks the New York Times is doing lately. This is what it comes down to in the final months before Election Day, unfortunately. Instead of focusing on the issues, we're focusing on spin. And accolades are in order to the media (correction: some media) for doing their job properly and calling these politicians out.

Perhaps you saw Mr. McCain's most recent TV spot chastising Mr. Obama on his education policies. It criticized the Hawaiian native for favoring "comprehensive sex education" for kindergarten students.

"Learning about sex before learning to read?" the narrator asks. The accusation however, disproportionately skewed the record.

The main objective of the legislation McCain speaks of pertaining to kindergarteners, is to teach them how to defend themselves against sexual predators, not to teach comprehensive sex education like it would for age-appropriate students. In fact, the legislation WAS comprehensive, vis-á-vis grades K-12, not education-wise.

Nice spin there Mac. I wonder if Barack will deem him a "skilled politician" as well.

McCain hits back hard with new education ad!

Requisite reply from Obama camp:

"It is shameful and downright perverse for the McCain campaign to use a bill that was written to protect young children from sexual predators as a recycled and discredited political attack against a father of two young girls - a position that his friend Mitt Romney also holds. Last week, John McCain told Time magazine he couldn't define what honor was. Now we know why," said Obama campaign spokesman Bill Burton.

Mudslinging: always entertaining, often perverse. Your turn Sen. Obama.

Obama on Countdown

Democratic nominee Barack Obama appeared on Keith Olberman's eponymous Countdown last night, in part to discuss the lies running rampant in the Republican campaign, as well as to discuss his response to the GOP ticket's latest ad, seen below.

Although Sen. Obama has Olbermann in his pocket, the interview helped shed some light on just where his campaign will be going. Especially in regards to how vitriolic the Republican campaign has become. Check out the interview of the liberal bedfellows below:
