Okay, can we agree that both sides are hypocrites and move on?

um yeah Danny..the Democrats are gonna launch an ad AGAINST the DNC Presidential Nominee…you are soooo smart….why didn't they think of that????

The Repubs can do their own ad if they feel so strongly about it…LOL…this is almost laughable….

ROLFMAO! I can't wait to hear these! Someone post them on youtube…

thats great….who can trust McBush anyway he's a big flip flopper in his own right..let's talk turkey about trust Mr McCain..you cant run forever and for everything on your war record you know, at some point people will say so what can you do today!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fantastic!

VOTE OBAMA!

it's so outrageous when people call out republicans on their crap. it would be appropriate if they said the exact same words to democrats - who cares if the accusations become absurd in that context; as long as people are blaming democrats instead of republicans, it's more appropriate!

So gas is $4 a gallon. If big oil were not to have these "tax breaks" the would have less profits correct? So thats going to make gas cheaper? I think not.

Lets face it. Repubs dont want gas prices to go down because they are making tons of cash. The democrats dont want gas prices to go down because they are in bed with the environmentalist and they all want us to change our habits and drive a prius.

We the people are screwed!

Can we vote to not have a government? Because certainly nothing has to be better than what our options are now

pleeeeeeeez

The republican party know in their hearts that Bush is an oil man and he is behind the high gas prices

America is in the situation it is because Bush was such a horrible President

Absolutely ridiculous. When you use actors/impersonators, you weaken your case by making your whole campaign based on FICTION. Similar to Obama being "black" when he is actually bi-racial & is just as white as he is black. Way to go, Democrats! (**I used to LOVE this party!!**)

Wow! Barack's confidence must be rubbing off on the party. We've got to put the blame for this country's mess where it belongs -
with George W. Bush and the Republicans. Bullies only understand one thing - and that's a punch in the mouth. I'm glad were lining them up and knocking them out!

What an interesting ad! I like it!

What an interesting ad! I like it!

OBAMA 08 and 12

I guess the DNC is more repulsive than the GOP when it comes to smear tactics. Funny thing is I think the Democrats have controlled Congress for the past 2 years. Oh and 2 years ago gas was less than $2 a gallon. But of course everything is Bush's fault…I wonder if the Democrats win the White House and more of a Congress majority what their excuse for ruining the country will be then? Oh riiight they will say it is still Bush's fault. Wake up America!

The ads better be funny instead of lame.
No one likes a lame ad.

Wow!!! The only question that I have is: Someone actually wants to play Bush? Good grief Charlie Brown

HA that's too funny!

childish
this is not Saturday Night Live

you can make your point in a much more intelligent way, or maybe
the the people you are trying to reach need this type of direction

For any republican to rant and rave and yell hypocricy at an ad pointing the finger for gas prices to the gop is ludicrous!

Nationalize the scumbags.

LOL!!! They should get the guy that Leno uses. He's spot on!!! I can't wait to hear the ad.

Wow, an impersonator doing an impersonation of of a person doing an impersonation of a president. How ironic!

To the HRC supporters - Here this - If you vote for B. Hussein Obama you will certainly end Hillary's chances of ever becoming president. We have to vote McCain. Hillary will win in 2012 I guarantee it!!!

This is a horrible idea.

There is no reason to bring this sort of "carnival" act to campaigning, especially when Barack Obama and the Democrats are already in a good state in this election season. Let the Republicans use their attack adds laced with racial undertones, and other fear based tactics. Democrats have no reason to stoop to their level. Please stop this garbage at once.

it is interesting how dirty the Democratic party has gotten during this election…it's worth noting that the billion dollar tax breaks were written into law by Pres. Clinton originally…With all the numerous faults to level against Pres. Bush and Co. why do the Democrats resort to fiction?

Insanely juvenile and unprofessional…that's why the democrats are so reviled. If they spent half as much time trying to find solutions to problems (which they helped create) as they do ridiculous schemes to divert attention from themselves, maybe they could gain the confidence of the American people. With initiatives like this, they will never get my vote.

bush is easy.just act like you know everything about nothing.

Why?

Hey I like this !
DM

We should also mention that Obama gets money from oil compnay executives, employees of oil companies and spouces of people who work for oil companies.

LOL!!!!!!!

Good times guys, good times…..

Sure glad they are not focusing on solutions like drilling, nuclear, conservation and improved efficiencies. It really does not matter what is going on in the country the only objective of any incumbent politician is to get re-elected. It is shameful and disgusting. The founding fathers must be turning over in their graves at an alarming pace!!

And the Democrats are complaining about Republican tactics…?

Obama is just another politician and I can't wait for Bill Clinton to get involved in the campaign so he can help him lose in November.

Clinton 2012.

The Democrat Party will never change…trying to play the high ground while at the same time being completely childish and immature. Funny that the Democrat-controlled Congress takes no responsibility for the state of the economy…

Just goes to show that neither of the two dominating parties deserve any special credit or respect for their status among US politics. Most politicians are worthy of the respect that their positions dictate. It is time for the US to turn their backs on the two dominating parties and embrace more independent or third-party movements. That would be the common sense thing to do.

Can't wait to hear it!!!

The ad sound's like it will do the job Republican's fall. Obama in 08

Ha,ha,haaaaaaaaa!

I love it! Go Dems! Let those freaking GOP have it!

That's right! Time for the Dems to step it up!

Go get em!

its about time credit is giving where credit is due. The republicans have a hard time with the truth, will this truth shouts to finally be heard-its about time the democrats stand up to these brutes. Dont back down. Hit them with te truth and keep hitting with the teruth. There is power in truth. Bush and company you cannot con the the american people any longer.

HYPOCRITES!

Maybe the Democrats in Congress should blame themselves for the high energy costs. Remember all the empty promises made?

Well done Democrats, you took Bush's words right out of mouth. The Republicans shouldn't complain, they ran smear campaigns since 2000, and the Democrats have to react. Swift boating will be attempted by the Republicans and Obama's campaign must respond and do the same.

Obama/Clinton or Bust

I like it! We need to have something to laugh about — there's only so much destruction a president can do and still be in denial.

Wow, more of the Democrats blatant hypocrisy. I guess that means that we're not in Iraq for the oil then, eh?

HMMMMMMMMMMM

Blame Bush for high gas prices

Dems control Congress………18% approlal rating

Bush ………23% approval rating

yep, his fault

go figure

Wow, Howard Dean has no morals.. its suprising he hasnt gone against his own parties wishes…. WHOOPS he DID

Democrats learning some tricks from Republicans…eh..

At age 72 (next month), the 2008 election represents John McCain's last political hurrah.

While John feels that "it's his turn" after his prior loss 8 years ago, there is no "entitlement" for the office of Presidency. As he seeks to draw on his years in the Senate to justify being the general election candidate, the truth is, in his eyes, McCain feels that he's paid his dues.

Fortunately, the Presidency doesn't simple go to the next guy in line.

I love to hear those Bush impersonators. Some of them do a very good job, generally making fun of him which is the best part.

what a bunch of bull
I guess they dont have any thing better to do
Demo in washington dont know how to fix this mess so they have to
do some thing to waste tax payer money for some yhing

It's a BLACKBERRY PIE squashed in the face of the GOP. No comeback will get rid of the stains before November.

Good to see the Democrats coming back. I believe they are as ready to fight dirty as the Republicans do. If only they had done this for Kerry. Go ahead Repubs. Try swift boating Obama. Ain't a gonna happen.

Dr. Bob:

What are you a doctor of? You must have a Ph.D. in Stupidity……

For all you who are outrage, give me a break. the GOP has done this too and will also do so in the future.

And it's not juvenile, unprofessional, and distateful to sing "bomb-bomb-bomb—bomb-bomb Ira…….."?

hahahahaha BRILLANT

Oh my god. Are we all going to survive until January with Bush in office. Like a kid. Please don't touch anything more until after January. I don't even know how Republicans can suport Bush. Go figure.

bush has done nothing for america. we are paying hi gas prices because of his inside deals with big oil companies. bush continues to rape the people until his term is up. shame on him! I am disgusted he is our president.

Obama08

"We see things not as they are, but as we are"

As anyone come to realize yet that Obama has absolutely no credible experience. As an Illinois resident, I'm pissed. He spent the last three years building up for this election. He says he's such an innovator and can bring change to this country. He had a chance to change the horrible way that Illinois is run and he didn't do a thing for one state. How can he change fifty? We don't need someone as our president, who is representing us to the world, who doesn't have any experience. This will be a puppet administration. He has his hands in many people's pocket. How do people eat up this drivel? It's disgusting.

Dr. Bob if you vote for McCain there won't be anything left in 4 years, there will be no jobs, gas 10.00 plus a gallon, stock market will probably crash.

Why not vote for Barack now. If he doesn't turn the country around in 4 years then vote for Hillary. I will.

Democrats are all F'ed up. Typical crap from the deranged left.

Wahhh Wahhhh Wahhhhh…. get over it Republicans!! You are a party tied to big oil interests, huge tax cuts and single issue politics that constantly divide this country. I think that just putting Bush on television or having John McCain bumbling in front of a green background is a reminder that we need people who don't have vacuous responses to serious problems.

Perhaps it is over the top that they are mocking Bush … but what amazes me is that there are, what 28% or 30% of the populace who are still supportive of Pres. Bush … who are these people? Are they brain dead? I can see that they might 'like' Pres. Bush but to claim that he is doing a good job … this is what we have in our country … 30% of the people are congenitally deluded.

I AM NOT EVER VOTING FOR BUSH EVER AGAIN!!!!!!!

Idiots

So, when (and I do say "when") Obama is soundly delivered a McGovern/Mondale style beatdown in November (and we KNOW this is going to happen when people wipe the magic pixie dust from their eyes and actually start looking into this guy and his socialist leanings), and he loses nearly every single state, who will you silly clowns then blame for the loss? Rove? Bush? Or the eeeeeeeeevil dastardly Republicans? (cue scary music… dunt dunt dunnnnnn)

Will it be the voting machines? Or will it be the lack of paper trail? Or will it be a hanging chad? Or will it be a swift boat? Or will it be a "confusing" ballot that my even preschooler could knock out of the park? Or will it be "voter intimidation" because all the hacks you hired to hand out smokes and dope and booze to the bums were all arrested for election fraud? Or will it be because better scrubs were performed on voter lists (meaning all your dead people cannot vote Dem anymore)?

Or will you blame it on the "sheeple?" You know, those people who are just not as "enlightened" as you, those silly peons who cannot understand that even though socialism has only killed 100 million people, that we should give it another try. Who will be your scape goat then?

I can't stand the republicans…but a commercial like that just makes the Dems sink to their level. Dumb idea guys.. Let Barack do his own campaigning… stop the childish BS

The DNC gets the award for an all time low, stupid and BS lies. The DNC knows darn well this is not how our fuel prices became so high. They think the GOP is tough now, just run those bogus adds! Like I said before Obama, your true colors are coming out!

Democrats you can do better than that. Who is the idot who wants to impersonate Bush? We all know Buh is ab oil man and is profitihg from the oil prices and we canr do a dam thing about it. Jonh McCain is a Charlie Mcarthy with Bush pulling the strings. Dems. dont fall into that trap so MCCain can win the election like Bush did CHEATIHG. McCain is a tired old man andyou can tell by the look on his face. I am 77 years old and age does matter. He should start looking for a young running mate. His face looks so pale and its not because he is white if he was'nt such a hypocrit I would feel sorry for him

charlie M

Gas prices are up in every country in the world.

It's amazing what people will blame W. for… the same people that think he is stupid give him credit for causing every bad thing in the world just to make money for his friends.

I guess the strategy of the left is - if you just say it enough times, it appears true. And 70% of us are buying it.

If you want to pay less for gas, stop moving further into the suburbs and start taking public transportation.

this is the funniest thing I've ever heard. Grand oil party!

Dem congress in place for nearly two years now. Nothing to show for it. You bums are a goner, despite your clever ads. By the way, hows that workin' out for ya, being clever?

I left the Democratic party… and this is part of why… they've gone NUTS!!!!! What happened to ideals and morals? To doing RIGHT rather than what was EASY? Dems have lost their collective minds - and BECOME a collective obama-cult rather than the party of THE PEOPLE. Now the are a CULT that will do ANYTHING to win - with or without morals. Sad…. I voted for them faithfully for 20 years, and now I simply shake my head at this sort of thing…

Well done. And perfect timing, with a holiday weekend coming…

Why hire an imposter? Just use film of anytime he had to speak without attempting to read a speech.

"Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we." — George W. Bush,President 08/05/04

Listen to who is complaining !!! Republicans, what have you done for this country during the past 7 years 1/2 ?
What an idiotic party. I just don't get why these `"useful idiots" still have followers. The church/kingdom mentality they all have is the real danger for this country otherwise I don’t see why the republicans win even 1 state out of 50 in November

Once again the DNC shows it's true colors. It uses theatrics, publicity stunts, photo ops and empty rhetoric to get it's "message" across.

This time, however, the DNC also takes the opportunity to disrespect the President at the same time. I won't say that Bush hasn't made mistakes nor will I blindly defend his policies or actions.

I will say this though-I personally will never vote for anyone who has to resort to school yard bullying to garner votes. The DNC gets votes by calling names and when attacked hides behind the unbreakable defense of racism, sexism or any other bias that is convenient at the time-because apparently Democrats don't make mistakes.

Mistakes that were not made by Democrats include

-Oral sex is not sex
-Hillary was under sniper fire (whether the other people present knew it or not)
-Obama's uncle (who was actually a great uncle) liberated a concentration camp (which was actually liberated by another country)
-Bushes time in the National Guard was carefully monitored and controlled by retired officers and he was kept comfortable as a national conspiracy
-Oil prices are sky rocketing because (stay with me here) the government is going out of it's way to make it cheaper for them to do business-it has nothing to do with a stagnant supply, increasing demand, subsidies in developing economies and a weak dollar.
-All of our problems will be solved if we legalize 12 million illegal immigrants
-The only problem with healthcare is that we aren't spending enough taxpayer money on people who don't have insurance

Please tell me why the republicans deserve to win anything. You pick an idiot in 2000 and 2004, he fails the country badly, and then you choose the number 2 from your 2000 primaries to succeed him. What do you think this country is? a kingdom?
If your number 1 pick is an idiot, and you choose the number 2 to run the show after a big disaster caused by the previous, what does it says about republicans?.

… ********** Sure seems like the "Silly Season"…

Sophomoric-They deserve to lose. Obama should put his foot down on this if he wants to prove he is about new politics.

this may be a bad ad (maybe) but it is nothing compared to the Swift Boat ads and the one against the black guy who ran for senate in TN in 06.

I left my comment and it is awating moderation vwhat is wrong ? you are affraid of the truth? OK this modified Bush is an oil man and who is stupid enough to impresonate him? Enough already lets stick to the real issues. Bush has dont all the damage he can do to us Americans. What do you say? CHANGE and by the way I am 77 years old and age does matter.

An endorsement fro the Rev. Billy Graham would have been a great
boost for McCain . We just do not understand wht Mr Graham did not endorse Hillary Clinton who went to Graham for spiritual counseling and support during some difficult time during her husbands presicency. eventually , Hillary triumphed over her difficulties and became the Strong, brave and Tenacious Presidential Candidate she is. Now , we are waiting for Obama to make his VP choice.

Sorry, as much as I like to see Bush and his followers bashed, this man does not sounds that much like Bush. There are plenty of comedians who do though.

The GOP are upset because the truth hurts. The GOP are also upset because "W" got "swift boated" by the Democrats. The GOP not only going to feel the wrath of the American people for their role of making America into the Titanic, they are going to be taught a lesson about Karma as well. "What goes around, comes around"

Did anyone noticed at the unity meeting how Sen. Obama or the Obama campaign put a tall stool on the stage for Sen. Obama to sit but it was too high for Hillary Clinton. A little thing like that makes us wonder about the character of a man or his company (since they claim they are the winner).

Next time Sen. Clinton or anybody who camapign for Sen. Obama should bring their own chair.

If Bill Clinton is angry how his wife was treated by the DNC shows he is a human.

Good luck with the DNC.

Those Democraps are wicked smart!

Highlight energy policy that their congressional leadership contributed to and has done nothing about.

Then again, when god was handing out brains, liberals thougth he said trains…:)

You can drill for all the oil we've got but it won't drop the price of gas one cent. The cost of gas in the US is no different than in Taiwan, that imports 100% of its gasoline. Explain that.

WOW THAT IS GREAT!!! GoodBye Republicans!! GO OBAMA 08 and 12!!!!

All the Democrats have to do is tie the Republican candidates to Bush's Policies and they're out.

Another crack head in the wacky world of the dimwitcrats

cnn is a bunch of donkey porkers

Its childish but then again all Democrats are just that way. best they can do is blame any one else but their own party for this problem.

The only thing they seem to enjoy more then anything is just hiking up taxes. Dont bother to cut their pork spending when its so easy to just tax our country to death.

This should be interesting…

Obama '08!

I guess it is OK for the Dems to hire someone that sounds like a Texan. Wonder what would happen if the GOP hired someone that sounds BLACK?

This is totaly false and only idiots would belive it, which is why it will work with the democrate party faithful. Oil is $140 per barrel because of demand from parts of the world that never consumed oil before, and we continue to consume at increasing rates ourselves. It is supply and demand. Honestly I wish that there was an education requirement for voting. I'm disappointed in the lack of leadership by the administration to be sure, but I do not blame them for the price of oil. Want to blame someone? Point your finger at China. The Chinese government subsidizes the price of gasoline for its motorists. That essentially says to OPEC, "we will pay whatever you want to charge." With such an offer in place, why would OPEC sell to the US for a penny less than the Chinese Government is willing to pay? Fortunatly the Chinese Government resently announced that it will end the subsidizes for gasoline, so I think the price of oil might start to come down when the new "market pricing policy" takes effect, but it may be the end of the summer before oil gets below $100 per barrel. In the meantime, don't blame the wrong person- and by the way, if you check your 401k plan, the oil stocks are problably the only thing holding your porfolio above water- without the oil stocks, you'd be sunk. You own a piece of Big Oil.

Great Ad. The Truth hurts. The republicans can dish it out, but is sure not able to take it. Cry babies.

this is a terrible ad, i certainly will not donate any money to the DCCC if they use it for these purposes. i think the democratic party is the lesser of two evils, but it's stunts like this that make everyone lose faith in politics

If you believe that - you will believe the earth is flat

That was a lame Bush. Shoulda hired Frank Caliendo.

that doesnt even sound like W

If they wanted a Bush impersonator, why not ask John McCain? He does a great immitation of George W. Bush!

fascinating to see "pro Obama" messages in the comments when Obama voted for the legislation that the DNC is citing as the cause of our oil problems. And for the record, Hillary Clinton voted against it. Why aren't you people checking your facts?

Republicans trying to call out Democrats for being hypocrites, and trying to deem our behaviour unprofessional???? Wow! You idiots are the biggest hypocrites there is, and you are all saying how unprofessional, and juvenile the Democratic party is. Especially when Republicans are very childish, and spew nothing, but crap that is highly juvenile.

Here goes the Republicans yet again spewing their hypocrisy. That's why your party is going down in flames come November. And it's funny how you all don't mind childish antics towards Obama, but when it's the Republicans turn to take in the heat, you all start.

Well said….would be better said if they named the ones controlling Bush

Give credit where credit is due. Thank you President Bush for my $70 fill ups!
Drilling today will not get us out of this mess. We need a Democratic President and a Democratic House and Senate. It is not the answer to spoil our beautiful coastlines or our our National Wilderness. We need to reduce our addiction to oil. One last fix of oil will only scar our land and prolong our agony. Just say no to oil and McCain. We do not want another fix.
Obama 08

This is priceless! The Republicans are complaining about dirty politics? You guys wrote the book! Chickens do come home to roost !

Why are republicans so clueless?

About as stupid as the democrats calling themselves by Obama 's middle name Hussien. I think george screwed up and didn't gather up some of them idiots and send them to Al Quedia. I am sure he would have listen to their whinning and hating america and come to the conclusion that if they will betray their country they would betray him.. Start the DRAFT and send these free loving nit-wits to Iraq or Afghanistan.. Let them get a taste of the real world and maybe they can come back here with some reality and a lot of gratitude for this country. Being a twenty year veteran these people of his make me want to puke. If I had only these people to defend i would let al-quedia have them.

Obama will do anything…. What a crap! No moral, no value.

What is hypocritical about not wanting to subsidize energy companies that are making billions of dollar a quarter? The Republican "faux angry" response does not even make sense. The oil party, a.k.a. Republicans, need to get out of the way for the benefit of humanity. They act like every move to take away profit and power from these oil corporations is an attack on America itself. AMERICA IS NOT AN OIL COMPANY! We, along with most of the rest of the intelligent people on this planet, do not care what happens to the oil companies. Our economy is just a lie perpetuated to maintaining these scums enormous wealth.

I say if Conservatives and Republicans want to play dirty, Democrats have the right to play dirty, too.

Bush signs the 05 energy bill that Obama voted FOR, (and McCain voted against) and Bush gets crap for that energy policy from Democracts. Ha! This is going to be one fun election, who shoots themselves in the foot least, wins!!!

Nice to see that the Republicans got their professional net posters at work again. They are providing jobs in a failing economy. The ad is hilarious satire, as most reasonably intelligent adults would realize. As to the phony Clinton supporter, guess again. If Obama doesn't win in November there probably won't be an election four years later, given what McCain has promised to do with the Supreme Court.
A question for the brethern: what will the "October surprise" be? My guess is that W will attack Iran, then McBush will argue that the situation is too dangerous to change horses in mid-stream. There will also be an avalanche of attack ads from the unregulated groups during that month. The manics on right-wing radio and TV will coordinate their attacks on Obama with the new Bush war and McCain's campaign. Wait for it!

JEAN SCHMIDT! what a bush-sucking twit! she's gotta get voted out… c'mon Ohioans!

how do you like it repugs whats the matter truth hurt obama 08

What Republican revisionists posting here neglect to mention is that within 60 days of Democrats regaining control of Congress, they successfully headed up a repeal of the tax breaks the oil companies were enjoying. Earlier this month, however, Senate Republicans managed to override Democratic efforts to tax the record profits big oil has been raking in.

Sorry boys, but America IS paying attention to who's sweet-hearting who.

Sometime satire is needed to express real issues. Comedy never be a bad issue in the case of politics because many politicians are behaving like comedians.

But comedians tell the truth with laugh!

Anytime a bill comes to the senate the Demos can't decide what to do, they add more to a bill so that it will be vetoed or delay a bill and then blame the Republicans or Bush. Demos like to tax and spend the peoples money.

Point 1, Bush's family has billions in oil company stocks. Point 2, Republicans were the majority up until 2 years ago and did they do ANYTHING about rising gas prices? Did they do anything to make us less dependent on foreign oil? They call the ad hypocritical and outrageous but it's fine when they've been using the same type of attack ads for more than the last 20 years? Come on America, WAKE UP. We're all screwed unless we get Obama in there to push for alternative fuels and ways of travel that don't involve oil. McCain might say he's for taking us off of foreign oil, and if he wins the election then by God I hope he's being honest. But the track record is clear. Democrats fight for the people. They speak for you and me. This has been clear for many decades. The Republicans have lost their fiscal responsibility with this Administration. They've increased the income gap to the largest divide since the great depression. They've done nothing to stop rising oil prices. They've given corporations billions in tax cuts while the average American suffers. And they've lost all credibility with the stunning number of cases regarding ethics (Tom Delay for example) just in the last two years. Let's stop kidding ourselves and realize that the best solution, our only solution is Obama '08.

I don't like Bush, but this is shameful advertising and striking far below the belt — many people will actually believe that its Bush himself. The only reasons why the big oil companies have the power that they do, is because of their lobbying to big government — the solution is NOT to enlarge it, like the Democrats want.

THe DNC needs some trick to support their candidate since he has no experience and is afraid to debate anyone lol

The Republicans are going to use thier slime machine too.

I guess the DNC is really scared. This is just so silly. Some actual clips of Bush saying foolish things would be much more effective. They certainly have a big inventory of things to choose from, and they're real. I am so hoping that BO will lose to McCain - and just by a little, say the by the number of disaffected women voters??? God knows I'm doing MY part.

I've been an independent for 1 years now, but I've voted Democrat. As Barack would say, "Not this time…"

Hiring some jerk to impersonate Bush when you have the real Bush at your fingertips is typical of the current crop of Democrats. Why not get something done in Congress? Now THAT might get somebody to sit up and take notice.

yeah gotta agree, not the best idea they have had…truth be told if they were going to run an add like this they could have just used Bush's' own comments.
and yes the Dems have had the house and Senate for two years, i think we will see a difference when Obama is president. it is going to take a long time to fix the Bush fiasco.
did get a chuckle though

As a Democrat I am ashamed of the DNC and the dirty politics they have displayed this year.

The Democrats are no longer the party we used to be proud of…..it has become a good old boy network that seems to look more and more like the Republican party.

The DNC continues to give us more reasons to question our party
affiliation and loyalty.

Yea. Change I can believe in. Gas prices are this high because of the IDIOTS on the left. You can't drill, no solar, no nuclear and no wind power. BO thinks high gas prices are OK. The DNC is a disgrace.

I don't know why it's so hard for people to understand gas prices. It's called the law of supply and demand. It doesn't matter if Bush, McCain, or Obama is President, gas prices won't change up or down by more than 10% b/c of their policies. It will almost better if Obama does win so democrats can see that it's not the party that is in charge that dictates prices, it's how much we conserve as a country. This ad only shows me how stupid the democratic leadership is, not Bush.

Dr. Bob you're not fooling no .. one .. you're a troll

Georgie and his comrade Cheney are filling their pockets with oil money before they retire for GOOD!

PATHETIC

I'm a democrat and even this type of ad makes me sick. Very sick and very petty. The dems have had the senate for the past couple years and have not done anything to help the situation out either. Blame is on both sides. The other ad that makes me want to throw up is Obama touting his midwest values. His mother didn't stay in the midwest and he didnt show up here till he went to college. The most he's had to do with the midwest is when he moved to Chicago suburbs after school. I think the nasty and offensive ads should be banned from both parties. Lets get down to some serious debatiing on issues and where each one stands. Obama doesn't have this race tied up yet. I'm sure he will win but lets get over the nastiness on both sides. CNN also needs to quit promoting this crap. Cafferty needs to ask questions about issues instead of trying to get a rise out of everyone about McCain. Hillary, Bill, and very occasionally Obama. Lets clean up this campaign and act like human beings instead of bickering 2 year olds.

HERES A WACKY IDEA FOR THE DEMS IN CONGRESS …….READ THE CONSTITUTION AND PERFORM YOUR JOB ACCORDINGLY TO ACT AS A CHECK FOR THE PRESIDENT INSTEAD OF ACTING LIKE YOU ARE ON STURDAY NIGHT LIVE!!!!

Put the blame where it belongs,Dick Cheney,hes been the real President behind the curtain.George is just the puppet.

Hilarious, yet underhanded. But I wonder why it's solely the Republicans' fault when Democrats have done nothing proactive to bring down prices either, and each party is trying to place blame on the other in the interest of votes to stay in power, not to help us. Neither party is really working for us–it's truly time to find a viable third party, if one can be found.

No.. the hypocrisy is when we have a Prez who didnt even know that gas was on this rise to 4$ but yet he and his Daddy are lock, STOCK, and tons of barrels in their own oil co's..(did we forget this?..isnt it a conflict of interest?)..people want to claim the this administration had nothing to do with soaring oil prices(speculators my eye!) yet research, if you dont already know, how much gas was then when he started an how much is it NOW!!!… 2 other points I;d like to make which concerns Iraq.. Did anyone else hear him say on T.V. that invading Iraq will gives us low gas prices? Did anyone else also hear him threaten Saddam on T.v. because Saddam threatened W;s Daddy?(aka a presonal vendetta?)…WAS ANYONE ELSE WATCHING THIS..LISTENING..OR EVEN REMEMBERING?

By the way, even if they are not the cause, Republicans really need to stop defending Big Oil.

RICHARD,FL

WE AGREE WITH RICHARD.

NO IMPERSONATOR CAN DELIVER THE MESSAGE

BETTER THAN THE MAN WHO MADE THOSE STATEMENTS.

REMEMBER WHEN HE WAS ENTIRELY SURPRISED ABOUT

THE $4.00 GAS PRICE. NO COMIC ON EARTH CAN DELIVER THAT.

SOMEONE SHOULD INFORM HIM. ITS OVER $5.00 IN THIS TOWN.

The Dems have finally located their testicles.

Can we hire an Obama impersonator too? Plenty of fun could be had with that one.

P.U.M.A.

McCain - 2008

And the Republicans are dirty players? I would expect Obama to denounce this attack, you know, with him being a breath of fresh air….

Shameless. I am a Democrat, and this is shameless. What'll happen if the Pubbies decide to use an impersonator for Obama? I cringe. It's sad that I will have to vote for Obama in spite of you.

It's Great, I Love It!!

And the swift boat republicans complain about this ad. What goes around comes around. Ha.

Yes..I am a democrat. Yes…I support Obama. However, this is not in good taste. Even though George Bush is not doing a good job …..he is the President. He does deserve some respect. He is on his way out. Don't pick on him. Mc Cain is one we need to beat. BAD TASTE !

I'm a Democrat, but I think this radio ad is totally inappropriate. It isn't right to mock the president. I don't care who he is.

Please do not put this ad on the air.

They could have at least gotten a good impersonator…that guy doesn't even sound like Bush.

Come on Dems.

is there a mcabel in the hhouse?

I think it's a FANTASTIC IDEA, and if the GOP had the ability. . .
which they will Fabricate if they have too. . . .they'll do something
similar with Obama. . . . utilizing anything to get the negative attention THEY DESERVE, off themselves !!! Democrats don't usually have the
guts to do anything. .but this is good, especially for them.
Get the message out, anyway you can. . . . . First amendment, etc.

If what the current administration has been doing wasn't so Tragic and dispicable. . .
it would REALLY BE FUNNY !!!!!

This a good idea by the Dems.. Bush is solely responsible for higher gas prices. He has a oilman as his VP. Cheney's networth has grown by 80 million dollars mainly due to oil.

The DNC needs to tell the truth about this administration. I think the Goofy Old Party saying this is disingenuous is like the pot calling the kettle black. The Repulsicans have tried their tricks since 1992 when Bush the dad was running for re-election. In 2000 the sheep of America believed Bush the goofy son was different. I think the Dems need to hit the republicans where it hurts. With ads..

He doesn't sound like Bush. And the ad is stupid. All the democrats can come up with is Bush jokes. Last time I checked it isn't his name on the ballot in November.

GOOD GOING GUYS.

WE HAVE LOST OUR ECONOMIC STANDING IN THE

WORLD DUE TO GREED & DECEPTION. WE NEED

TO MAKE OUR CASE SIMPLE & FACTUAL.

Kudos to the Democrats!
A party that gives Americans the facts.
Barack Obama and the Democratic Party
will restore America!

This is a great way to fortify your position. Hire someone to mock someone not in the election. (Bush wont be on the ballot.) Silly and immature. Emotional, sure - but Americans are smart enough to see through the facts.

More Republicans faking they were going to vote for Clinton.

Ya your going to vote for someone that stands directly opposed to everything Clinton stood for.

Get a spine.

Just a reminder…
If you WERE for Hillary and are now for McCain, you are an idiot.

Sophomorish and dirty–normal Democratic politics..

To - Who will be your scape goat when Obama gets the beatdown of the century?

Your post would be a lot more accurate if you switched the name "Obama" with the name "McCain"

I DON'T KNOW WHY, BUT SOME PEOPLE

I TALK TO, JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND THE

CONNECTION BETWEEN BUSH POLICY, WAR, OIL

PRICES, OUR ECONOMIC DOWN FALL. IT'S AMAZING TO

ME, HOW EASY IT IS TO FOOL SO MANY. BUSH CAN'T EVEN

READ A SPEECH & HE IS PRESIDENT. THAT'S JUST TO WILDE.

I can not express my joy and happiness that we are finally for once putting credit where credit is due. For EIGHT years the republicans have destroyed this country with lies and loopholes. The "W.M.D's" we couldn't find in Iraq, the "Patriot Act" which took away basically ALL of our privacy rights, the Iraq War which has done nothing to make the world better and has only Killed our women and men and make Iraq a little bit better place. WE did not vote for him as President of Iraq…It was US the USA and he has done nothing but try to make OTHER countries better. LOOK in your own back yard you sorry excuse for a man, you cant even take care of your own. Its About time we stand up and say NO MORE BUSH no more CLOSE MINDED POLICIES and YES it is TIME FOR CHANGE!!!! Democrats Unite because if we let small minded people and people that cant put differences aside for the better of our country then we are just asking for more of the same. Stand up People….UNITE

Freedom / Change / Hope —08——– Always

about time the dems fight back and all hillary supporters DID HILLARY OR DID SHE NOT SAY BUSH AND CHEYNEY WERE BIG OIL MEN ITS OK FOR HER TO SAY IT BUT NOT OBAMA PLEASE OBAMA AND HILLARY HAVE PRETTY MUCH SAID THE SAME THINGS BUT ONCE AGAIN WHEN HILLARY SAYS IT ITS TRUE AND OK BUT OBAMA SAYS IT HES A LIAR AND A FRAUD PLEASE PEOPLE GET OVER YOURSELFS!!!

Compared to the Swift Boat Vets, this is child's play.

At least the Democrats will use truth in the ad, unlike the fine, up-standing, T. Boone Pickens-funded Swifties!

Wow… All the "Clinton" supporters out in force here today. LOL. Do you really think she cares about you, or your views? You are foolish if you do not realise that you are only going against her party and more importantly, her!

The Democrats in congress have been trying hard… but guess who's vetoing them?

Some people really ought to think before write.

Frank O'Neil, not everyone should think the same like you do. This is America. You might be not a christian, but do you ever comprehend why America becomes the greatest nation in the world? Does it happen over night?

It's all because America used to have a lot of Christianity values. Because of those values, you are recognized being a citizen, being a man, being a people. It was because of the Bible that former Americans applied those sacred and holy values so that all people including you can have the same right as anyone else. If it wasn't because of those values, do you think you can talk like this? And you too, the media.

It's only a matter of time when more and more Americans already never care one to another, no more love, no more sacrifice, no more humanity and christianity values. All there are only people who only think about their rights but not their obligation. When that happens, you'll see that's the time America will collapse. I'm not cursing America, reversely, I want to warn all the Dems like you. It's ok for me for a Dems to be a president, as long as he/she can keep the sacred and holy christianiy values that once was the foundation of this country.

The reason I am not quite keen with democrat is because their values are bad. Majority of the Democrats are people who doesn't respect the moral values. They think it is a garbage and not important. They don't realize that those are the foundations.

And the Democrats continue to say the Republicans play dirty politics…

Good, the Democrats are finally giving the Republicans a taste of their own medicine!
Obama '08!

This radio buy is such an amazing idea!!! The dems are finaly getting some balls to stick up to the repubs.

AND NO it is not hypocritical. The reason congress is not doing as well as they promised is bc they are stuck with a president who is self-centered and is all abt the oil companies and making cash.

This is highlighting the issues and policies of the repubs and what they stand for. its not a personal smear by any means.

Way to go Democrats!!! wooohooo

This is a very bad decision! These kind of sophmoric ads simply undrmine the core message of Democrats regarding the overall state of the Nation that Bush is leaving as his legacy

Maybe Democrats really are too stupid to elect!

If you think the gas price per se is the biggest problem that Bush has left on the next president's doorstep…well think harder!!

ever since obama-clinton unity move started,obama's poll ratings
seems to have diminished.

I don't think publicly admitting your party doesn't understand that oil prices are a WORLDWIDE problem is a very good campaign move. Gas in Germany was $9.40 a gallon at last check… and it's almost just as bad in Turkey and elsewhere in Europe.

Why would you then run a radio ad stating that oil prices are all George Bush's fault? Is this the DCCC's way of publicly stating that they are retarded or something?

Additionally, John McCain is the one running for president… not George Bush. If you're going to launch political attacks for the coming election, at least attack the right guy.

JOhn G., you will never come up with a good enough reason to make me think GW Bush is worthy of my respect. Even the Army now says his war leadership was putrid and, in fact, his declaration of Mission Accomplished made U.S. losses worse after May 1, 2004. And the folks the Dems are targeting are the dregs of society. I cringe to think my taxes are going to pay the salaries of such lowest -common-denominator imbeciles as Virgil Goode and Jean Schmidt.

Dr. Bob: I think you have it backwards. If you vote for McCain you will certainly end Hillary's chances of getting into the White House. She will be working her Heart out for Obama to win. Because if he doesn't, alot of people on the Hill will blame her for the lose (because of the long primary battle and some of the rumors that were started by her supporters about Obama) and she will not be around in 12 or 16 to run. I respect her and I know she will do what she thinks is best for her country. She will be very disappointed in any of her supporters that vote for McCain as it will show that they did not support her because of her views on the issues (which are very close to Obama's and opposite of McCains) but only because she was the first woman running for office and never had a clue what she stood for. So Shallow!!! So Sad!!!

Bad idea. Now some Republican whackjob will hire an Obama sound alike and have them spout the most blatant lies - probably have it praising Allah or some such and the party will disavow all knowledge but do nothing to curb it but will in fact flame the fire to try to scare people into voting for McSame.

I am kind of at a lose over this ad? What is so wrong? After all it is ok for the Republicans to distort the truth! They do it all the time!! For instance; I keep hearing that Obama is going to raise taxes. Now, when a republican says it that is where they leave it. They do not bother to add that you will have to make ove $250,000.00 or that the Capital Gains tax starts when you get 3million. Right now it is at 2million. The republicans have always distorted the Truth Knowing they were distorting the Truth.

Montan is Obama Country: You are right!!! it is the "Silly Season". Maybe it should be renamed the "Stupid season".

The Repubs already have a Bush impersonator…McCain. The old guy may not look like him much but he sure has been sounding like him. Too bad because in 2000 I wanted McCain instead of Dubya. Now I guess McCain thinks to win he's got to echo Bush and Cheney.

This former Republican and current independant wants real change. That's why I'm voting for Obama in 2008!

Dr Bob:
"If you vote for B. Hussein Obama you will certainly end Hillary's chances of ever becoming president. We have to vote McCain. Hillary will win in 2012 I guarantee it!!!"

Okay Cleo here's a gurantee she will not win 2008 that's because Hussein already beat her. How funny that you're willing to sacrafice the nation for 4 years becuase of your hate for Obama. It can't be Hussein's issues because they are very similar to Hillary so it must be something else.

News flash Dems: McCain wants to lower your gas prices, Obama doesn't. Dems couldn't care less if gas goes to $10 a gallon because they want to push their "everybody should drive hybrids, you shouldn't use AC, ride the metro!" agenda down our throats. Kinda funny that the person leading that charge, AL GORE, has a bigger carbon footprint than 99.9% of the rest of us.

McCain '08!

Democrats won in 2006 running on getting gas prices down. they are up $2 since then and now in the next election cycle they decide to make it an issue again. reminds me of the 8 years of health care Clinton /Gore promised us. BTW here in Illinois then state Senator Barack Obama was all over the state telling us the we needed a tax holiday for high fuel prices and now he says it is a gimmick when Senators Clinton and McCain bring it up. Don't be fooled by this guy. He is running to the center now because he knows he can not be elected on his record. Ask him about guns and he is all over the place to try and please everyone. Also, his tax hikes? He and the rest of congress will not pay them as they have their own tax rules which are nothing like ours. If a politician wants to impress me, tax your pension (they don't here in Illinois) and take the tax away from the unemployment checks. those are the people who really need a tax break!

It's entertaining to hear the 24%ers blaming Democrats for not fixing the prior 6 years of disaster from Bush. MOST people know that Democrats cannot override Bush vetoes. MOST people know that as bad as Congress rates, it is the REPUBLICANS that bring it down the most.

John G: If you are not going to vote for any party that uses "School Yard Bullying" then you must be voting for Bob Barr. Because, you definately cannot vote republican becaue they are masters at the "School yard Bullying' There republican motto is "Do nasties to the Dems, but scream foul when the Dems do it to us"

Why didn't they just use real bush quotes?

Well, these ads seem fairly stupid. They certainly don't make the Democratic party look smart, just pathetic. You can't blame the oil crisis on only one person. After all, who is it that drives gas-guzzling SUVs, and uses tons of excess electricity? That's right-us, the public. I can gurantee you that most of the democrats supporting these ads have taken at least one airplane trip for their jobs, and airplane trips (plus ship travel) make a far larger carbon footprint than cars do. You can't pin the rising price of oil only on Bush-the big oil companies wouldn't be quite so big if it wasn't for the fact that we the public use so much oil, and have been using a lot of oil long before Bush became president!

Wow, I am a staunch Obama supporter but this turns my stomach. I really hope Barack puts the kabosh on this kind of advertising, I am offended by it.

Mocking the President of the US who is about to retire?

This is Obama's new unifying politics?

They should have Frank Caliendo do the Bush voice lol

Yeah, the republicans would try to attack the democrats on this… if they had the money. LOL.

But that impersonator speaks to clearly to be convincing. Maybe he should talk about "detaxification" for the oil companies.

Obama-Richardson '08

That George Bush impersonation is dead on. If he made up a few words it would have been perfect!

Oil subsidies, turmoil in the middle east, weak dollar all of these are caused from Bush and the Republican lead legislature. It's funny how the GOP after years of bulldog, corrupt, immoral and borderline illegal practices now call foul on everything. They sound like a bunch of winers. Lead by the king of whining and flip flopping John McAin. Really what has he not flip flopped on to try and win this election. Used to be a big fan of his but it's McCain's words we can't trust. The war, tax breaks for the wealthy, offshore drilling. It's silly season in politics and the silly part is McCain's policies.

Just Wondering……..

Where are all of the Hollywood celebrities holding telethons asking for help in restoring Iowa and helping the folks affected by the floods?

Where is all the media asking the tough questions about why the federal government hasn’t solved the problem? Asking where the FEMA trucks and trailers are?

Why isn’t the Federal Government relocating Iowa people to free hotels in Chicago ?

When will Spike Lee say that the Federal Government blew up the levees that failed in Des Moines ?

Where are Sean Penn and the Dixie Chicks?

Where are all the looters?

Where is the hysterical 24/7 media coverage complete with reports of cannibalism and shooting at helicopters? (which never happened in N.O. either, BTW)

Where are the people declaring that George Bush hates rural people?

How come in 2 weeks, you will never hear about the Iowa flooding ever again?

Just wondering…what’s important here?

If anyone has been reading the news lateley .We are being strangeled by the noose from this current goverment of republicans and democrats alike,They have done nothing but throw us a bone in the form of rebate checks.and told us they will stop 10 percent of payment to doctors who treat medicare patients.The only way to stop the bleeding is to vote these bums out of office before they completely destroy our good people of this country and destroy the future for our children.In order for us to face we must replace.

DEMOCRATS-the hypocrites, are the real smear people. the only smearing of Obama being black was done by democrats and Obama himself. I just wish you people blogging CNN would wake up and smell the coffee. The Repubs have not smeared Obama, but you keep waiting and hoping so you can attack. I believe McCain can win on his own merits without smearing–he should be 20 points behind at this time–he is even–what is the problem with the great democrats? If you eke out a win, it will be a miracle–DNC can't "fix" the results in the general.

I'm amazed at all the people who are "HORRIFIED" that the DNC would run such an ad. If the RNC ran this against Obama it would just be another smart move on their part.

Give it up, GOP freaks - we're on to your lying ways and love of BIG OIL!

And stop blaming the Democrats in Congress for not doing anything. Everyone knows that any bill which could help the average American gets shot down by the Republicans in Congress, or vetoed by Bush.
