Obama's Latest Ad Attack On McCain and The Response! Whoa!




Obama camp links McCain to Abramoff scandal

CNN


Barack Obama's campaign is linking John McCain to the infamous Jack Abramoff scandal that ended several Republicans' political careers three years ago in a new campaign ad hitting Georgia airwaves Wednesday.

The 30-second spot is the Obama campaign’s second negative ad in the past 24 hours.

It attacks the Arizona senator for his association with former Christian Coalition head Ralph Reed, one of the Republicans implicated in the scandal.

The ad also seems to suggest McCain didn't call Reed to testify before a Senate panel he chaired in return for political favors.

“When the Senate investigated, the senator in charge never even called Reed to testify….And that senator? John McCain. And who’s now raising money for McCain’s campaign? Ralph Reed," the ad's narrator says. "For 26 years in Washington, John McCain’s played the same old games. We just can’t afford more of the same.”

The TV spot sparked a sharp rebuke from McCain campaign spokesman Brian Rogers, who called it "ridiculous," and noted Obama's connection to Bill Ayers, the current University of Chicago professor and one-time leader of the militant group "Weather Undeground."

“If Barack Obama wants to have a discussion about truly questionable associations, let’s start with his relationship with the unrepentant terrorist William Ayers, at whose home Obama’s political career was reportedly launched," Rogers said. "Mr. Ayers was a leader of the Weather Underground, a terrorist group responsible for countless bombings against targets including the U.S. Capitol, the Pentagon and numerous police stations, courthouses and banks."

Reed, who lost a bid in 2006 for lieutenant governor of Georgia, had promoted a McCain fundraiser last week in the Atlanta area that netted the presumptive Republican nominee $1.75 million in campaign cash.

From McCain campaign:

The Corner

Please see comment from me on Barack Obama’s new ad supposedly running in Georgia:

“Barack Obama’s ad is ridiculous. Because of John McCain, corruption was exposed and people like Jack Abramoff went to jail.

“However, if Barack Obama wants to have a discussion about truly questionable associations, let’s start with his relationship with the unrepentant terrorist William Ayers, at whose home Obama’s political career was reportedly launched. Mr. Ayers was a leader of the Weather Underground, a terrorist group responsible for countless bombings against targets including the U.S. Capitol, the Pentagon and numerous police stations, courthouses and banks. In recent years, Mr. Ayers has stated, ‘I don’t regret setting bombs … I feel we didn’t do enough.’

“The question now is, will Barack Obama immediately call on the University of Illinois to release all of the records they are currently withholding to shed further light on Senator Obama’s relationship with this unrepentant terrorist?”

From one of my past posts..dated November 15, 2006

Abramoff Ready To Flip On Senate Dems

Sources close to the investigation say Abramoff has provided information on his dealings with and campaign contributions and gifts to "dozens of members of Congress and staff," including what Abramoff has reportedly described as "six to eight seriously corrupt Democratic senators."


With his (Obama's) list of associations and friends this is nothing less then an invitation to bring it on! LOL

Regarding McCain spokesman Brian Rogers, that is the way to play ball! Smack the indignant liberal and smack him hard! It's time to shove it back at the Socialist!

So many things to pick from this is just too juicy. Ayers, Obama was the Chairman of an organization that Ayers founded, Hamas endorsement, terrorists in Gaza funds to Obama, Rezko and also the connection through Rezko to Saddam Hussein’s Oil for Food briber, Wright, and the list goes on.

Jerome Corsi has so quietly driven the stake into the Marxist vampire’s heart the sound of the hammer hitting the stake was barely audible. This is vampire slaying. heh heh

Obama is so far out of touch with what this country is. So now they are trying to link McCain with Abramoff, they don't have anything left. If they need to resort to kind of attack ad they are in big trouble and they know it.

Ohbama's friends will do him in just by association if nothing else. Oh sure the left wing nutroots will vote for him, but they'd vote for Stalin if he were running instead of Obama.

Thin-skinned and cry baby Barack Hussein Obama is cracking under the pressure of criticism and celebrity/messiah over-exposure. He and his supporters will try and paint him as a patriot who loves his country. However, Obama and the voters need to be reminded of his diharrhea mouth anti-American statements every place he goes. He sees the country as fundamentally mean, evil, and in need of change. Of course, he, the Messiah, is the only one to wise enough to make this change turning the country into his Socialist vision of what it should be.

Obama is just one more arrogant SOB.

Les, that is exactly how he feels about America. Too bad don't want to see what he really is or maybe most of them agree with him.

Ah, the not so hidden hand of George Soros and Media Matters are at play. If ever there was a song written to encompass all of the diarrheal Obama campaign this is it. Brown Water. My apologies to Mark Cohen but this should be their theme song at Denver.
