Obama starts the "lying" ads



The Obama campaign decided to pick all the low hanging fruit today, coming out with an ad deriding John McCain for the lying thing. It uses a lot of media quotes from the near 10,000 papers that decided to take a swing at McCain for the litany of untruthitudes in every aspect of his campaign. Karl Rove even hit his head on something, forgot who he was, and chastised McCain for lying. It even has a picture of a sleepy McCain, no doubt dreaming of an alternate dimension where he could win with a shred of his integrity left. Not in the most fevered dreams of Rod Serling, John.

This went well with the news that the McCain camp got caught with it's pants down lying about minuscule shit like the number of countries Palin went to (Iraq is out and Ireland was only a plane refueling) and crowd sizes (seems they've been tripling their numbers and lying on behalf of angry fire marshals). At this point we're only 50/50 that John McCain has been a senator and was in Vietnam.

"John McCain is a morally degenerate liar" is the new meme. This should go well with the "John McCain wants to get the economy drunk and date rape it" meme that McCain provided so much ammo for today. When a man hands you a truck full of A-bombs and begs you to use them on him, well you've just gotta do it.
