thank god somebody else sees this, neither party is fair on the facts in their ads but its GD infuriating when regular folks who support them turn a blind eye to it. I just got done looking over this stuff and this simply inciting racial hatred using nothing but pure lies. Not only did he take the comments completely out of context and distory their meaning, but he took them from someone who is regarded to be a nemisis of McCain within his own party and then tied the two together like they are the same person. There is stretching the truth and then there is this. At least Obama himself actually said the "lipstick on a pig" comment...at least Obama actually voted for the sex-ed bill in IL...all grains of truth to otherwise negative ads. But McCain never said this, never endorsed it, and on this issue has vehemently opposed the views of the person who did say it. To make this ad they had to find the quotes and they knew exactly how BS they are...when Obama comes on and says "I approve this message" it should give every supporter of his cause a puckered asshole of emberassment the same as the lipstick ad from McCain should have for his supporters....only this goes beyond a lie, this is race-baiting pure and simple.

I feel they are both as bad as each other, both take things ridiculously out of context.
The sex-ed in kindergarten was clearly meant to be teaching little kids what to do if they were assaulted by a sexual predator (McCain made it sound like they were going to be doing explicit sex ed).
Both are running a dirty campaign and I'm surprised it's actually allowed to be this dirty. Both parties are really lowering themselves, but I guess its what you have to do to win votes in the USA.
