McCain’s New TV Ad Stars Obama…Praising McCain

We are ALREADY seeing what kind of a president Sen. Obama will make. Sen. Obama purged the reporters of newspapers that have endorsed Sen. McCain from his plane. And earlier this week the Obama campaign banned WFTV in Florida for asking Sen. Biden a question he didn’t like. Sen. Obama does NOT like opposition. These will not be the last purges. WAKE UP AMERICA!
Remember it was President Clinton’s White House staff that was found with the FBI files of 1,000 prominent Republicans. Could that be why Sen. Obama needs a one million member civilian national security force with a funding of $500 billion. It wouldn’t take his civilian national security force very long to create a file on EVERY American. WAKE UP AMERICA!
Those of you who, wrongly, believe that President Bush has stripped you of your rights, may soon see what it really means to have your rights stripped away should Sen. Obama be elected. WAKE UP AMERICA!

We get it.
Some of us get it.
Redistribution, Economic Justice, Civil Rights.
Tax cuts, handouts, welfare, reparations.

LA Times suppresses tape that may prove Obama applauded the supporter of the demise of Israel.
With an Obama president say good-bye to talk radio and Fox news. MSMBC / NBC is the official network of Obama.
We will look like China and Cuba.
Freedom of Speech and the Press will be gone.

If McCain & the Republicans were right on the issues they would get the vote, .. country seems to indicate that they want something different. It would be a good thing if accountability came back in vogue…. Bush et. al have to answer for what they’ve done.
The ad to me shows Obama’s willingness to look for answers and solutions from whatever source is available….and he’s not afraid to give credit., even to Republicans when they (snarky inflection) sometimes get it right.

We get it.
Some of us get it.
Redistribution, Economic Justice, Civil Rights.

** We get it
The MAJORITY of us get it.
1. Tax relief to the wealthy with no relief for the middle class/poor.
2. Fighting in Iraq, which is the wrong country by the way, instead of forcing the Iraqi gov’t to take over their own reponsibility as we spend 10 Billion dollars in Iraq /month
3. No innovation or new ideas. Stuck with the ideas/policies of the past
4. Income wages decreasing instead of increasing as they did during the Clinton years
5. No unity or equality for anyone (would rather have parties and people within the same party fighting)
6. Deregulation of the free market so the credit market can freeze again
7.Taxing health care so 20 million people can lose their work coverage
8. VP candidate that says her foreign policy experience is watching Russia from Alaska
9. VP candidate doesn’t even know her job descrpition
O yeah we get it.
And thats why the MAJORITY of Americans will vote for Obama/Biden 08

Well, I’m an Obama supporter, and I liked the ad. Actually sounds like President Obama thanking Senators McCain and Liberman for helping to pass legislation…..

It means Obama occasionally makes a mistake and tells the truth.
Everyone has an off day.

Cliff, you cant seriously still be vouching for Sam the Unlicensed Sanitation Worker aka Joe The Plumber aka I have a PR team and a publicist now aka I’m going to buy a business but I can’t afford it?
We can’t take you serious if you reference him as anything other than a fraud.

The commercial works in favor of McCain, because at this point in time, we’ve been bombarded with ads from Obama that tell us how out-of-touch McCain is, and how poor is judgment is. The commercial tells us that Obama is deliberately lying about McCain for political reasons, and that, in fact, McCain has a positive record on fighting to preserve the environment.

‘Joe the Plumber & Palin in 2012
yeah, that’s the ticket

I thought it was an Obama ad, until I got to the end, then I was confused.

I wonder who came up with this insane idea that agreeing with your opponent is a sign of weakness. To me, it shows the ability to recognize good ideas from any source and to give credit where credit is due. Color me socialist.
By the way, judging from the voters’ reaction after the 1st debate, this approach did not all that well for McCain. So, his campaign repeats it at its own peril.

I love how Obama praises Republicans and doesnt try to smear them with fake charges like Socailist and Muslim only to change it to something else the next week!
This Ad shows every American why they should vote for Obama!

I agree…OBAMA is hiding so much. He is the American disaster waiting to happen.

Pain VA Blue, actually is has been President Bush’s domestic policies that had gotten us through the previous hits to our economy (i.e., 2000-01 recession, 9/11, corporate scandals, 2004-05 major hurricanes, etc.). The economy was booming until the end of 2007 (5 million jobs created in 52 months) when the policies of the Democrats and the Liberals of forcing the banks to lower their lending standards finally “came home to roost.”

Don’t be surprised if the McCain campaign pulls this ad quickly once it dawns on them that it helps Obama more than McCain. All it proves is that Obama IS bipartisan, gives credit where it’s due, and is a GENTLEMAN.

So is Obama too partisan or not partisan enough? Wasn’t McCain just railing against Obama’s “most liberal” rating? Now he’s trashing him for doling out across-the-aisle compliments…

This morning , the Huff Post reports on an interview with former Sec. of State Eagleburger where he clealry says Gov. Palin is not ready to assume the Presidency if it was required! And Eagleburger is one of his strongest supporters.
It seeems the strongest critics of her readiness to be V.P comes from his supporters and other Republicans ,yet they to blame the media!

“No the force is probably needed to clean up New Orleans after Katrina and all the other botched FEMA jobs that have occured under Bush II.”
Hmmm lets see no coverage of the hurricanes this year that were handled very well. Completely ignore the fact Katrina was an unprecedented disaster FEMA had never been prepared for. And ignore the fact the state dropped the ball and THE FED CANNOT MOVE IN WITHOUT STATE APPROVAL WHICH THEY GAVE LATE. Remember the state buses flooded out? Those weren’t FEMA buses.

Didn’t McCain said Barack dont cross the floor or say nice things about the other side.
Which is it! I Am confuse , this just show Senator Obama is open to all sides and will work better in washinton.
Obama / Biden 08

America, the choice for President will decide whether this country becomes a democratic-socialist nation, like Germany and France, where government controls and regulates most everything and business and taxpayers exist for the purpose of feeding social programs, or continues, as it as for 200 years, to be a free market, individual opportunity, nation where people determine their destiny and reap the rewards and take responsibility for the failures of their actions. In France, people are told they cannot work more than 35 hours per week because that is the only way high unemployment is avoided. Productivity is therefore low and many people who want to work harder to be able to make more money and get ahead in their lives leave to come hear. In Germany, there are very, very few non-technical jobs. If you don’t have a college degree (especially a technical degree), you don’t have work. Consequently, Germany has unlimited unemployment insurance and many people simply sit at home and do nothing, being subsidized by those who are working and pay the taxes. Think about whether it is wise to give up 200 years of free market capitalism, which, notwithstanding the “Doom and Gloom” prognosis of our past economic philosophy being offered by Obama, in reality has made this country great. We Americans have brought most of our current economic situation on ourselves by not insisting on buying American products and American companies and their shareholders have sold-out to “Globalism” with a maximize profits only mentality. The solution is not an Obama-Biden, Pelosi-Reid, government imposed democratic-socialism. John McCain is a reformer and he is best suited to addressing how to correct the shortcomings in our capitalist economy without throwing the whole system, and likely our long-term future as a great nation, down the drain.

They found the LA Times tape – it was in Sandy Berger’s socks.

Who Cares.
It’s Over.
Even Arizona is a swing state now (49/44 – a more than 10pt gain for Obama). Poor McCain
E_DAY – 4: ELECTORAL COLLEGE EV POLLS

JWord
THE CLINTON YEARS BEG TO DIFFER WITH YOUR RANT/POST!
OBAMA IS PUTTING THE TAX RATE FOR THOSE MAKING OVER $250,000 BACK TO THE SAME RATE IT WAS UNDER CLINTON AND GIVING A TAX BREAK TO THOSE MAKING UNDER $250,000..

Didn’t we try all these social programs under JFK and than LBJ. Didn’t the democrat free insurance program of Medi-cade give poor people free insurance. Didn’t the section 8 house program provide houses. Remember the great society under LBJ. We spent trillions and are still spending.

The economy was booming until the end of 2007 (5 million jobs created in 52 months) when the policies of the Democrats and the Liberals of forcing the banks to lower their lending standards finally “came home to roost.”
——————
Uh, right James, that’s why the Dems got voted in right – because the economy was “booming”?
The housing market had collapsed. THAT caused the financial crisis. And it occured well vefore the Dems took control of Congress.
The SEC DEREGULATION of the five mega-banks that crashed occured in 2004. That’s when they changed the lending to holds standards. In 2004. Again,it was a Republican controlled Congress and a Republican President.
The economic crisis did not occur in a year. No one but Limbaugh and Hannity say that. It took years of poor economic policy for this mess to develop.
Nice try yhough ;p

I would like to thank the McCain campiagn for showing Obama’s willingness to see all points of view and reach across the table. To admit when even his opposition has a good idea.
Thanks for proving OBAMA is the LEADER we need right now!
Money well spent guys. Money well spent.

I am afraid that if Obama gets elected, that our freedoms are going to be further dampened. He wants to root out any opposition against him. He will cultivate goons who will investigate any citizen who dares to speak out. He has cut his teeth in politics on Marxist, socialist and racist fanatics with whom he chose to associate himself with. He has shown that he is willing to hang anyone out to dry who gets in his way.

What, McCain’s promoting Obama now?
You know, the old guy’s been spinning so much he’s forgotten which side he’s on!
Unbelievable – but kinda funny.

OK, now McCain is accusing Obama of being a gentleman and occasionally agreeing with him? What horrors!

Dave from VA — REAL VA! The housing market, just like all markets, is cyclical–simple Economics 101. When prices get too high, people stop buying and prices drop. When the prices drop far enough, people jump back into the market and buy homes and prices begin to climb again. The reason we have a financial crisis is because of the Democratic policies–during the Clinton Administration–forcing banks to lower their lending practices so individuals who couldn’t afford to pay the loans could actually get loans. In spite of that, had that been the extent of it we would not be having the crisis we have today. With fixed mortgage rates the banks would have had to have ridden out the market. BUT instead, the banks pushed the flexible subprime mortgage rates on the consumers. Then when the value of the home dropped below the balance of the mortgage, the banks jacked up the interest rates. When the mortgage payments doubled, the homeowners and speculators couldn’t make their payments and the banks began foreclosing in mass.
The housing market would already be on its way back had it not been for the freezing up of loans. There are millions of potential home buyers out there RIGHT NOW. But they just can’t get a loan. So until the banks start loaning money again, it will just make the crisis longer and deeper.

The ad is a huge mistake; it helps make Obama look reasonable and non-threatening. Obama is a radical leftist with friends on the extreme fringe.

thank you mccain for spending your millions to promote my candidate. that is really sweet of you.

Further this ad makes it look like a bunch of thirty year old Obama supporters with no sense of history are running McCain’s campaign. My wife and I sent the McCain campaign money and they are wasting it. This ad makes me very angry.

this ad makes mccain look like he should have hired a bunch of 30 year olds to run his campaign to better compete with obama. mccain’s people are out of touch.

If only McCain would end all of his ads with, “I’m John McCain, I’m a veteran, anyone is welcome to see my actual original birth certificate not some meaningless lame COLB, and I approved of this ad. Thank you.”

Obama looks and acts rather Presidential in this ad.

All of you seemed to have missed the fact that Sen. Obama’s campaign speeches have been criticizing Sen. McCain’s energy plans as being just “gimmicks” and that Sen. McCain’s policies “will only increase our oil addiction for another four years.” Sen. Obama has also said, “What Washington has done is what Washington always does: It’s peddled false promises, irresponsible policy and cheap gimmicks that might get politicians through the next election but won’t lead America toward the next generation of renewable energy. For decades, John McCain has been a part of this failure in Washington.”
This ad contradicts what Sen. Obama has been saying on the stump about Sen. McCain’s energy policy.

Common Sense, you wrote:
“I think the McCain/Palin camp emphasizes ‘fight, fight, fight’ too much. They really don’t get evolution. We shouldn’t be trying to eat/defeat others to survive in this day and age.”
If we shouldn’t “fight” or defeat others, shouldn’t the Democrats be willing to become Republicans and Obama withdraw right now just so he doesn’t risk defeating McCain? And all liberals should become conservatives, or is just conservatives who are being “divisive” when they disagree with liberals?
