Yes, and I'm sure Bush and the Republicans are also responsible for high gas prices around the world. Should we now expect an actor to play Obama? Oh wait – we already have Will Smith.

LOL, right Dr. Bob, like you aren't a GOP supporter and like you could guarantee who gets voted in anyway. If you could, then why didn't you do it for Hillary this time — (OH RIGHT, YOU REALLY ARE A REPUBLICAN) who thinks we don't realize it.

These problems that we are facing are not only the cause of Bush's mistakes but all the past presidents…we were faced with the OPEC crisis in the seventies and we apparently learned nothing from that….

So stop putting all the blame on Bush…redirect it on all our past presidents who failed us…

Also Obama and McCain seem no different that all the other Dem/Rep politicians that we have been facing for decades…they are all full of themselves and lie to the public…

Its time for US citizens to take control of the government back…that is what a democracy is…GOVERNMENT OF THE PEOPLE!!!

LMAO ! How come they missed on endoresments/support for McShame and how they would continue to live the "G-oil-P" legacy?!
Maybe next ad?! Cant wait.

Obama 08.

The real Bush is dumb enough! He's a good impersonator tho…

"W" here, that guy doesn't sound like me, he is too articulate and he doesn't pause at inappropriate times like I tend to do. Get it straight you Dems, if you want to impersonate me at least try to do it right.

Maybe somebody should remind Obama and his campaign of the Carter years where we were hit with double digit inflation, double digit interest rate, and double digit unemployment rate, because the truth seems to have escaped from the audacity of hype.

I just looked up the Energy Bill of 2005. Obama voted nay on the original republican bill and voted yea for all Democratic amendments that were submitted. Taxing windfall profits to be turned back into developing other energy sources sounds like the thing to do. Isn't that why the big Oil companies were given tax breaks? To reinvest in upgrading refineries, more exploration? To the sour grapes folks still harping on the primaries, get a life. You aren't going to find it sitting on this blog posting your hysteria.

If you want $10/gal gas vote OBama. THe high gas prices in Europe that easily exceed $10/gal are high because they include taxes that fund universla health care. The same health care that Obama and a disillusioned public wants so badly.
So in conclusion ,the next 4 years will bear double digit gas prices but in that you'll recieve less than average health care wooo!

Obama/Marx '08!

This is all entertainment. It is a fun add. Fun like SNL. I like that they make light of the serious situation.

I love the ad. It is funny and appropriate and TRUE. However, I will still not be voting for Obama!

FACT: When Bush first entered office (joining a Republican-controlled Congress), gasoline was $1.29 a gallon. That's about a 250% increase in a little over 7 years!

FACT: There is no shortage of oil drilling space in the US. There are dozens of coastline drilling permits ready to be purchased, but the oil companies haven't purchased them.

FACT: Even if the oil companies started drilling offshore today, it would sill take 10 years for the oil to enter the market, and the volume wouldn't be enough to impact prices, anyway.

FACT: Bush has steadfastly rebuffed Democratic efforts to invest in alternative energy.

Time to impeach!

Great, and the truth about the Administration and Big Oil….

Unfortunately, a certain segment of the Democrat base will not realize that the ad is a fictionalized script read by an impersonator, and will believe that Bush actually said those words. The DNC is counting on that (they don't respect their own people).

I can't believe it, but I am actually going to miss George W a bit when he leaves office. The laughs I have gained at his expense have been many. What is Jon Stewart going to use as his 'moment of zen' each night once we are free of George W? I am enjoying W's silly dance moves and Bushisms more and more each day as it gets closer to the time of his exit from the national stage. I'll be doing a Bush dance in January – no more crazy Republicans!

Obama '08

This is hilarious. Also, a dead-on impersonation.

Anybody that says otherwise is taking themselves too seriously.

If you people want $10 plus gas prices vote Obama!
The prices you see in Europe that are over $10/gal are becuaase of the taxes which pay for the universal health care obama and the deragned public wants.
So in conclusion in 4 years you will pay more double digits for gas but you'll get less than average health care for that!

Obama/Marx '08!!

Why not! Bush has been impersonating a president for the last 8 years.

When it comes to John McCain, I am with Gen. Wesley Clark:

“I don’t think getting in a fighter plane and getting shot down is a qualification to become president.”

"[McCain] hasn't held executive responsibility. That large squadron in the Navy that he commanded — that wasn't a wartime squadron.”

this is kind of silly, but thats ok.
it wont be silly if the next president is a democrat.
you will see how very serious we democrats are.

I think its great. Use every tactic in the books to expose Bush and his republican frauds responsible for this mess.

Dems, I say go for the jugular.

I am still waiting to hear this is OBAMA making sexist attacks against hillary.

It's always more important to fix the blame than to fix the problem.

No surprise that the Republicans are outraged about any criticism. They have driven the country into the ditch and wish to blame somebody else.

I'm continually amazed at how ignorant and uninformed the majority of the voting public is, although I'm not sure I should be. It seems from the majority of bloggers on here that they get their political information and insights from little sound bites and snippets.
People, you need to delve into these situations in order to educate yourselves and make INFORMED choices.
McCain is offering real plans and real solutions for the energy crisis, Obama is offering "NO". McCain has and will offer comprehensive plans for immigration reform, Obama is offering "NO". McCain has served two decades on the Armed Services Committee, Obama has been running for President since he set foot in the Senate, other than that he has done "NO"thing.
So, continue to bash Bush if you want, talk about beating a dead horse, but at least try to inform yourselves so you can vote for the person who will best serve this country, a person with a record of service to this country that spans 40 years, not an empty suit who is lost without his teleprompter (which is why he is avoiding the town hall meetings with McCain). Don't vote for Flimflamma, if you do you will deserve what you get, it won't be pretty.

Why not include Rep. Tim Murphy – 19CD PA?

The last thing we need is a racist like Obama as our President. Everything that Jeremiah Wright has said Obama agreed with for 20 years. Yes Obama is every bit as big of a racist as Wright.

You want good ads, just wait for the Wright-Obama ads where Obama talks about how important Wright is to him and his family.

The DNC must not be in such horrible financial straits after all if they can afford to waste money like this. Ridiculous!!

OBAMA/BIDEN '08-16

So, let me get this straight repubs…

When the republican attack machine releases ads of this type, you call it "laying out the facts."

When the dems do it, you call it "smear tactics" and childish.

Don't be a bunch of hypocrits. It's sad, but Americans respond to this type of advertisement. You're just mad that the dems finally figured it out. Enjoy some of your own medicine you babies!

Yes the Democrats have had a slim majority in the congress the last two years. Why haven't they done something about oil and the economy? Because the rebublicans attack every attempt and fillibuster good legislation and Bush vetoes anything that resembles good for the american people.

Anyone who believes either party will suddenly solve our problems is an IDIOT. We are screwed either way. We seem to get to choose the lesser of two evils, every election. Our current congress has done nothing to stop Bush/Cheney from their rape of this country. What happen to balance of power? Everyone promises change, no one ever changes it for the better. I don't trust our government to take care of the problems we are facing. Term limits only serve to get people who serve themselves because they don't have to worry about re-election. We the people, have the power to limit terms, in the voting booth.

the republican's should run the same add with an obama look alike answereing the roll call on the 05 vote with a yeah as he voted

McCain runs on his POW experience only. Most people 45 amd younger don't know zip about the Vietnam war and don't care to know and McCain doesn't get it. McCain's claim to be better on security issues doesn't make sense either because he was never a military commander. Young people care about the here and now which means getting our troops out of Iraq.

I love it… this is hysterical, and the best of all is true!

We all got finger behind by this administration from day 1.

Long live OIL and death to the earth (We moving to Mars next)

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

Yes, that's about the easiest agreement I've ever come to.

They should have used Frank Caliendo, that guy's impression is spot on

Anyway, this whole campaign to link McCain to Bush is not a 'new type of politics', it's old school politics. Why don't both parties have their candidates run on their merits or, if they REALLY need to go negative, at least point out the other candidate's ACTUAL flaws (and by that I mean flaws that matter, not how stupid someone looks in a helmet).

A vote for Mccain is like saying you are open to the chances of a draft…. and an Amercia that could watch it's economy go down the toilet. EnuffsEnuff!

So how does this show that the Democrats in Congress are spending their efforts in lowering prices? Why don't they do real work for us instead of having fun playing politics? What a bunch of scoundrels. Vote 'em all OUT if you really want change!

What is more pathetic than so called straight talk express plane maccinsane just purchased.Cnn I dare you to post my comment.

This is deceptive advertising, oh wait Democrat ad. This is OK, because Obama isn't who he portrays and the liberals accept him. Never mind.

Bush '08!!! Screw the dems!

Nice to see that after two years of a Democrat controlled congress, where gas prices doubled, their solution to lowering gas prices is to hire a Bush impersonator.

Now that's real change.

"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?.'

It shows that each time the Republican Candidates were slightly less of an idiot than what the Democrats could field to oppose them(Gore, Kerry). The same today when all the Democrats try to field a pure socialist rookie senator that's only grace is that he's articulate. My God, is Barack Husein Obama the best that the Democrats can field for President?

A Bush impersonator? LOL I didn't think there could possibly be anyone on earth that could even act as stupid as the village idiot in the White House.

This is FABULOUS! I love the ad and the idea and applaud the Democrats for using such a fun ad to get the point across that 'W' is to blame for the oil. And I don't feel sorry for the 'poor widdle wepubwicans' who are getting targeted, they deserve to be ousted from office for supporting Bush's ridicuous policies.

GA Republican June 29th, 2008 11:11 pm ET

The DNC gets the award for an all time low, stupid and BS lies

no i recall a little ditty about WMDs…but i guess you Repubs don't consider that a bold face LIE. may be you think that that was just away to send our troops to a tropical new location so they could work on their tans…idiots.

i dont agree with this tactic but Obama has nothing to do with this campaign.
truth be told, Bush screwed up our country so bad he's an easy target.

for all of you so called DEMS FOR MCCAIN…do you remember a little campaign waged by your Republican friends…TO IMPEACH BILL CLINTON?
why has no one returned the favor to W, GOD knows if any President should have been impeached it should be Bush/Chaney.

fools who voted for him in 04…GREAT JOB!
now you want McCain to finish Bushs war on Iran?
and yes Iraq does seem to be about OIL when these big oil companies now have no bid contracts in Iraq…

Dems do not stoop down to the level of the GOP.

Chuck, Livermore June 29th, 2008 11:06 pm ET

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.

——————————————————————

Obama says “I do not take money from oil companies” but forgot to say that McCain does not either. Look up the Facts!!! Obama also forgot to say that 2 of his bundlers are top executives at oil companies that give $50,000 and $100,000 to him. That is a fact and you can even see that listed on his own website.
Two of Obama's fundraisers are Robert Cavnar, the chairman and chief executive of Houston-based Mission Resources Corp., and George Kaiser, the president and CEO of Tulsa-based Kaiser-Francis Oil Co.

These forums are just ridiculous. CNN should remove them so I'm not distracted by everyone's ranting partisanship. If you think the Washington GOP is doing a good job, you are beyond saving at this point. If you don't already think politics in our country is a carnival, then you're also blind…

jmh June 29th, 2008 11:11 pm ET

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.
—————–

We can blame "W" because "W"'s failed economic policies, his spend and borrower budgets with record defecits, have all resulted in a complete devaluation of the dollar; oil is traded in dollars and the cost of oil rises with the devaluation of the dollar. Ergo, because the dollar fell because of W's policies, we can blame him for the rise in oil, even though it has risen around the world…because it rose around the world because of the devaulation of the dollar caused by W. See,…simple logic!

I don't know that these types of ads will help the Democratic cause. I find them a big turnoff. Hopefully they are at least humorous.

My bigger concern right now is reading that Bush and his cronies are ready for war in Iran.

One thing I don't understand is why, if Bush is so darn powerful, why are Democrats not more afraid of him?

I mean, you guys throw so much stuff at his feet, i.e. high gas prices, crappy economy, Hurricane Katrina, global warming…if he really has that much power, don't you think that perhaps you should be fearful of his supernatural powers??

Think about it. There are economic reasons for oil prices going up. We are not the only country suffering. Look to the oil cartel run by TERRORISTS in Middle Eastern countries. Running the oil prices way up and causing all the social unrest is a form of economic terrorism.

This ad is typical Democratic-smokescreen tactics. Divert attention from the facts to focus on a situation that doesn't matter at the present time. Where has the Congress (which is Democrat-controlled) been on the energy issue? The type of government we have doesn't allow any one branch to have absolute power, meaning that if Bush really was manipulating the oil prices the Legislative branch, which includes Congress, would have been able to stop it.

Open up your eyes and realize that Bush is not the enemy. Obama will be our next president and when the economy tanks, and it definitely will, all of you that voted for him will get exactly what you deserve.

I hope john mcain has all the republicans drafted to war. All the people who support him. Bush is the one who got us in this mess.

heh heh heh This is what they call..telling it like it is! heh heh heh

Beating the 'Publicans at their own game ! eh eh eh …

Down right pathetic.

McCain 08

Both parties are responsible for the prices. The Dems have been in the ecologists pockets for 50 yrs. Also the NIMBY's. If they had kept the drilling in this country in the early 80's instead of stacking drill rigs and running to the mid east for the majority of our oil we wouldn't be in this mess. Now the Repub's have had all this time to get this straitened out but have gone along with that agenda.
Everyone know that if we flood the market prices will come down and we would be out from under the thumbs of foreigners controlling our economy. But they don't want that. They are looking to be a one world org. an make us a #rd world country. We are about there and if Obama gets in we might just get there faster.
I heard a report about a refinery to be built in S. DK but it will be 2 yrs before they can start. Now how stupid. They should have been building and rebuilding ones that are out dated and have burned down.
Right now for all you nay sayers stop and think that if we have more oil the price my not drop right now but it can keep it from this run away rising and liing the pockets of non Americans.

I don't know what this "impersonator" is supposed to accomplish. I know that we are a society of sound bites, but what is needed is substantiated proof or a place where we, as concerned Americans and gas users, can find out the information.

If I, personally, could see verifiable documentation as to who is in bed with whom and which Congress member backed what, then I'll base my vote on that.

As far as democrats pushing hybrid technology and earth-friendly energy, what is so wrong with that? Did we, as a nation, change our habits of using CFC's because of a whole in ozone, stop using lead based paints, ended our prevalent use of asbestos in buildings, limit companies from polluting lakes and steams so that we and our children wouldn't be prone to mercury poisoning in our fish and ground water?

We can change because we have changed in the past. People who want to drive their SUVs and trucks can covert them to burn Biodiesel fuel like…here we go, Willie Nelson, Sheryl Crow and Melissa Etheridge did to their cars and tour buses. It's sort of a "have your cake and eat it too" analogy.

Let's be mature and reasonable about this. There are more obese children than when I was growing up, more type2 diabetes, more lung related maladies and we need to step up to make that change instead of relying on government.

This is something that the Republicans will never grow enough balls to do. And I don't blame 'em. If they were to hire an Obama impersonator, the media would fry them up like an egg. It's unfortunate.

And let it be known that Frank Caliendo is the best Bush impersonator alive today.

None of this conversation is leading anywhere. I'm tired of corrupt politics. By the way, if the F.B.I. is reading this, they can screw off. I love this country.

USA!

USA!

This is nothing new, people have been making fun of the president for years now.

The Truth For the High Price of Gas/Oil:

Oil speculators. Case closed. If you want to lower gas prices, you have to reign in the speculators. Republicans are in bed with them and making huge profits from this, and won't stop it. So, answer – stop buying gas. Stop using gas fueled cars. Demand hydrogen powered fuel cell cars with 0 emissions.

Our blessed country that I so dearly love is being abused and humiliated and has become a world-wide joke. Yes, let's get the Dems in there so they can finish the job.

I see a lot of Republicans here. Good for you. Thought you guys went underground. Need you.

How can you even say McCain is going to fix all this. Of course, he is going to take all the oil execs, throw them a party, and say, "boy's please lower your oil prices. People are suffering!" Sure…..

So, far the Republicans in congress have stymied every effort to remove the oil giveway to the oil companies.

So, far the Republicans have stymied every effort to fund alternative fuel research and development.

Folks, 100 billion dollars over 10 years, is 10 billion dollars per year. This is peanuts compared to what is being thrown at the corn subsidy, given away to Iraq, given away to the oil companies (approximately 40 billion a year).

And there are plenty of already available land to explore. Why aren't the oil companies doing it? They need it for ther future profit.

I don't think one is very smart, when you think that companies will do things to reduce their profit margin in a captive market.

If you want to pay $7.00 per gallon for gas, no matter what happens to ANWR, vote for a Republican.

The DNC didn't need this ad. People know. All my neighbors know. All my workers know and all my friends already know.

For the republicans in thesr forums, please read EVERYTHING. I want you to know how much your republican senators have screwed this country up!!

Vote John McCain for $7.00 a gallon!

So, the DNC's answer to high oil prices is to put an anti-white racist in office? Gee, that will fix things. MCCAIN '08

Bush let the oil companies write the energy policy for america and this is the result high gas prices thats a fact wall st is setting the price 60% of today's oil price is pure speculation close the enron loophole and gas prices will drop overnight and Obama will close them (yes obama can)!!!!

Just when I was thinking about voting Democratic they go stupid again. What idiots, don't they have better things to do than play silly games. It is really talking down to the public.

And when did everything go downhill – gas, economy, etc., etc….when dems took over house/senate!!! Seems they want everything to fail to get their democratic prez elected (qualified or NOT)….(whatever we want to do to help our country-dems turn it down and put a bad spin on it)…now that's watching out for the people…NOT.

This ad…what a joke!

As I recall it, the Democrats are in charge of Congress and the Senate and they refuse to drill in this country for oil. Guess they prefer bank rolling the Arab oil Shieks to drilling for American oil.

They ought to hire an obama impersonator. He might know more about what to do for this country than the real one.

what about the year and a half that the DEMOCRATS have controlled Congress…why haven't they tried to do something..Because their pockets are too getting lined just as the Republicans….

Kevin,

Sorry but gas hasn't been under $2 a gallon in a very long time. By the time 2006 came we were already accustomed to gas being in the $2 range. Please check out your facts.

I hate mcain he has no exprience excet killing people and war. obama is not a empty suite mcidiot is. I hope all the people that support mcidiot, I hope he drafts your sons and daughters to war and i hope they all die. What has John mcidiot offered nothing at all but war and empty promises. John mcidiot is the biggiest flop floper of all immigration, oil drilling, tax cuts. All the people who are going to vote for john mcidiot are going to be jobless very soon. John mcidiot equal the third term of bush. Cindy is just another blond bimbo with no brains at all. Infact i hope john mcidiot dies very soon.

Typical. Liberals have no original thoughts.

This is terrible everyone already knows the Bush has done a bad job. The Dems are just making themselves look bad by doing this. It is a waste of money and time. They must actually be scared of McCain because the is unnecessary.

McCain '08 Change in the right direction.

Also, to all you people that are blaming the Dem controlled Congress, did you know that Republicans have blocked and stonewalled more bills and discussions this year than ANY other Congress in the HISTORY of Congress?? But without doing your homework, you sit there and complain that they're not getting anything done, AND IT'S BECAUSE OF REPUBLICANS!!!!

And NOBODY is forcing the Big Oil to sell their oil at top prices either… they could drop their oil down to $75/barrel, still make a fortune and make themselves patriotic heroes BUT instead they continue to rape the American public.

Just what is the Democrat solution to higher gas prices?
Their first order of business in Congress is hiring a Bush impersonator?
Their second order of business will be to increase taxes on oil companies?

All I see is Congress more worried about winning seats in November than actually helping the country. All the Congressional Democrats want is more power for themselves, not cheaper power for anyone else.

A pox upon both houses of Congress!

Oh Boy this will be fun

Johny McBush has voted 95% of the time on everything agreeing with Bush on everything.

Bush and Cheney should be impeached and the rest of the McBush cronies should be run out of office.

READ the DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE.

If the Government no longer enforces the will of the people, the people should remove such individuals and government from office.

That says it all.

The U.S. Constitution and the Declaration will be enforced, right will overcome wrong everytime.

JULY 12th Americans are marching on Washington by the Millons

Join your countryment or stop complaining on these post's.

You can not hide behind your computers any longer.

Nick : not even you believe what you wrote.

GREAT AD

This is why the dumbacraps are a bunch of LOSERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And junior Obama's plan to immediately lower gas prices is what? He shot down the gas tax holiday as a gimmick, so what will HE do?

This is absolutely absurd, while yes there a republicans who manage oil this is only a fraction of the oil that is being consumed in this country. To blame Bush for gas prices is the most aggressive and uneducated statement I have ever read. THE CAUSE OF GAS PRICES IS SIMPLE ECONOMICS. As other countries such as India and China move into the modern world and desire the novelties we have grown accustom to in America (tv’s, cars, washers, dryers, computers, etc ), their demand for energy for their have caused an incredible increase in global demand for energy. Is it their fault for energy increases? No… but at the same time they have risen to our level and there are not enough resources for the energy demand. YOU NEED TO THINK ON A GLOBAL LEVEL rather than buy into the crap you are fed based on mudslinging between parties. While we are a great nation, WE ARE NOT THE ONLY NATION

I'm sure the ad will appear childish, but whatever. A little humor never hurt anyone. (sticks and stones).
To the folks who try to put gas prices on the "been in congressional power for two years" Democrats: #1) it has only been 1 1/2 years, and 2.) Bush has vetoed virtually every proposal that has come his way, imperfect tho they may be.
The fact is, before this administration, gas was what? $1.80 a galon or less? It took 90 years for gas to get that high and only 8 years to triple that accomplishment.
Regardless of what democrats may want or think, we can't afford the republicans any more. Not the republicans we've come to know, anyhow.

I weep for our country based on most of the comments here. People are so blinded by their hatred for Bush and their loyalty to their party. When are we as Americans going to realize that it's not about right and left, it's about right and wrong. And for whatever you believe about Bush or the Republicans, this message is not right. Our country is going down the tubes not because of Bush but because of the inane and uninformed electorate who are like sheep being led to the slaughter.

Oh yes such a terrible attack, just like accussing Obama of being a terrorist, or looping REV Wrights sermons, yes just terrible…..

BARACK THE VOTE PEOPLE……………….

Ridiculous. Both parties are as much to blame for high gas…remember, big oil has lobbyists too ya know who talk to ALL sides not just one…Dems have controlled Congress 2 years and have done nothing. They can't even override a veto for gods sake. Suck it up and blame Congress for a change. They all need to be replaced! Theyve mostly all been around longer then Bush ya know, don't forget. Some of them were there back in the early 90s when gas started going high. heck some of them were there in the 70s when they didn't know what to do about gas!

If they had any intelligence they'd stop talking about high gas and actually propose a bill about it! Right???????

Moronic behavior from democrats. Gee, what a shock!

Gas prices have increased more while the congress is under the democ”rats” control than under the entire bush presidency. Bush is not running for re-election, when will they realize this?

What do the Republicans and Bush expect? He was and is a HORRIBLE EXCUSE for a President of this Great Nation. Anyone who claims that the finger should be pointed in another direction is suffering from some some serious dillusional DENIAL.
VOTE OBAMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey "Clinton, no, wait, McCain Supporter" please explain to me how women were disaffected in this primary. Hillary does not deserve the nomination because she lost. It had nothing to do with her sex. if you pout and cry because a woman lost, you are just as sexist and ignorant as a man who would not vote for a woman. so yeah, the smart thing is to vote for McCain. that will teach everyone. My female friends and family "get it", maybe you should get over your attachment.

Only surprise to me is that the Bush impersonator wasn't any good.

The high gas prices are in part the Democrats fault for opposing the development of our domestic energy supply and building of new refineries for thirty years. The subsidies perhaps allowed the deep water drilling and work on alternative energy sources which the energy companies have done – and that is not enough. This could backfire for the Democrats.

yeah.. it's all OBAMA's fault we have $4.00/gal. gas!!! It must be Al Gore's fault we invaded Iraq… and Bill Clinton's fault our economy is in the toilet!!!

The Republican party has only TWO strategies… making you afraid of something and telling you who's to blame for it. How lame. And yet half of you people keep voting Republican! With Rush, Billo, Sean, and Ann Coulter-geist spewing all of their hate and dis-information… I can see why you people can't think for yourselves.

This ad will be funny. Attacking the most horrible president in decades would be good for Mad TV or saturday Night Live but seriously, we need to focus on the real agenda! We dems must unite together and get Barack Obama in the White House! Oil prices will not fall while BUsh is in the White House and the economy, war and alieanation will contine if McSame is in the WHITE HOUSE!

OBAMA 2008-2012

This is tacky.

Funny as all get out, but still tacky.

Sooo immature

-V

Oh and by the way Nick, that may be the most uneducated position on the planet. all the pols have greater footprints. does that mean we should wait until our president lives in a cardboard box to make changes?

Absolutely ridiculous! We should not have people pretending to be politicians and putting words in their mouths in a serious ad. This is about a serious issue, I bet no one would be saying the same thing if there was an Obama impersonator saying things that would make him look bad! Just because Bush is unpopular doesn’t mean we should all throw out our ethics!

The real reason gas prices are so high, is because democrats REFUSED to explore oil reserves within the United States back in the 90's. You can expecially blame president clinton for his Veto back in 1995.

I am shocked by the Hillary backers. we don't have time to wait until 2012. she lost so move on and support Obama. their policies are similar if not their tactics. he is not as tainted and is a thinker. why the anger? McCain sold out long ago.

I think this is stupid idea, and so childish. Bush is already disliked, and America doesn't need more excuses to disapprove him. Sometimes you don't have to kick someone when they are down. You just let them dig their own hole, and you win in two ways. They are down, and you took the high road. Please reconsider running this ad, because as funny as it might be it does appear childish and immature, and there is no need to stoop to that level.

Actually it's the vast majority of congress that's responsible for the high prices. Oil is traded in U.S. dollars, our government's out of control spending leads to inflation, therefore it takes more U.S. dollars to buy a barrel of oil.

Oil companies are leasing land and purposefully not drilling on it, essentially keeping the supply low and driving the cost up. This is the same thing that Enron was doing.

The Republicons hate it when you the Dems use some of their type of tactics. Although I don't know why they had to hire an impersonator. There is plenty on video of our own personal tyrant George W. showing the world that his only concerns are money, power and doing the job he was put there to do, which is to Divert the wealth and resources of this country and the people to the wealthiest top 1% of Americans.

Tax the rich, pay off Hillarys debt.

What a lame and pathetic move. If the republicans hired a Obama impersonator, the dems would absolutely freakout. Their chosen one would probably try to take them to court.

Grow up and actually try to solve some of our problems instead of creating stupid new ones!

What a childish and misleading prank. And I thought the Republicans were the party of misinformation and sleaze. Looks like the new Democratic party is the old Republican party. Bravo Howard in taking the DNC down to a new low. And hey, why not mislead and spread fear, it worked for the Republicans, why not the democrats. Now I can honestly say, I despise both parties equally as much.

So, according to the Obamabots, when (and if) Obama gets into office, gas will magically go down to less than 2 dollars a gallon? If not, will you all agree that it is not Bush's fault for the gas prices and that OPEC controls the prices? If Obama wins, the only consolation is that 20212 will be a major sweep for the Republicans–similar to Reagan in 1980. Jimmy Carter so messed up this country (yes–he was lousy) that it took a Reublican to clean it up.

I hate how Bush lied about the war, and he's not being impeached! Abraham Lincoln is probably rolling over in his grave right now.

It's so disappointing that a man running for President of the USA is spending his time hiring impersonators and using gimicks to make a point. If his point is legitimate, he shouldn't need immature tactics to relay it. I don't want a leader who sets this type of example, and there's no excuse for such behavior.

So the Democrats control the House and Senate for the last year and a half. What happens??
This time last year we start talking about a recession.
Also, Gas prices go up by almost 2 dollars.

How is this Bush's fault again?

hahahahaha……………..

worst president ever.

Did you ever catch this guy Van Hollen on T.V. what a certified jerk!
He is so full of himself, and such a deep hate for President Bush,
so why am ,I not surprised that he had stupid idea of someone, imitating the President. He Van Hollen ,has as much brains that would fill a pencil eraser. The idea is so juvenile, you wonder how he ever got elected, but then again he is a liberal.

The Democrats obviously think the average American is just stupid, as evidenced by the stupidity and hypocrosy of this story. However, I guess that says a lot of what they think of their own supporters…

excellent. it is time we credit the president for being a complete bafoon. he's a big oil tool. he's destroyed our reputation. he's wiped his behind with our constitution and bill of rights. he's thrown our economy into the (gas) tank. he's sent thousands of young boys and girls to their deaths for an illegal, unjustified war. he's spread fear and propoganda into our nation. i guess bringing up all that he has done for our nation would take more than a 30 second radio ad, huh?

the ad sounds silly, sophomoric, and undignified…unworthy of the dnc. what's become of the promised issue oriented positive campaign? whose shameful idea was this? i may have to register as an independent.

Anyone who votes to keep these idiot democrats in office deserves what they get. Who keeps blocking drilling for oil where the oil is??? Who keeps blocking nuclear power??? Who doesn't realize its the world market that sets the price for oil – not the president?

And there are still people out there dumb enough to believe these people! It only explains how radicals can convince some people to blow themselves up! P.T. Barnum had it right when he said there was a sucker born every day. The democrats prove it over and over.

Oh, and the Republicans can use "Swift Boat" Tactics, but when the Democrats attack some republicans WITH THE TRUTH– who by the way put us in this sitiuation, it's "dirty tricks" …. WAAAAAA WAAAAAAAAAAH !

Danny Diaz, a spokesman for the Republican National Committee, sharply criticized the ad and said Democrats were being disingenuous………..I'm sorry ,SIR….. That shoe fits

childish and immature. we all have a lot of growing to do, don't we?

I am astounded by how people have commented on this article without being able to spell (my favorite is "Montan" aka Montana) much less come up with substantive arguments. Can anyone support their views with actual facts (which includes voting records, policies etc.) instead of making statements, without any examples, about how Bush is stupid or Obama is bad for the country.

bush and co. + israel

yep wer'e screwed

time to impeach the scummm and deport israel firsters

Have you all reported on McCain defaulting on his taxes yet?

Maybe we could convert to a communist country. Would this help gas prices go down or would they go up?

It is the DEMS who constantly oppose oil drilling. Can you run your car on a windmill you dumb liberals???

Nick: McCain wants to give you a fish. Obama wants to teach you how to fish. Do you understand the difference? McCain wants to hand a gift of drilling rights. They currently have drilling rights to millions of acres that they don't plan to drill. They previously capped oil wells that they said they won't uncap until oil reaches higher per barrel prices.

Can I say it clearer: Oil companies are not going to increase production because they are raking in 50% profits! They just want guarantees that they can continue to jerk you around for at least another decade.

Obama wants to invest in renewable energy so that we will not be dependent on fossil fuels that are rapidly being depleted by the U.S., China, and India. China has a 30-year agreement with Iran for oil and liquid natural gas. Surely you remember CNN covering the 2004 agreement, right? It was right between breaking news on Britney Spears and Brad Pitt.

They can play the gas issue but people will remember also that Obama did not even want to lift the gas tax.

STOP CRYING YOU REPUBLICAN BABIES. IT'S YOUR TURN NOW……

Bush is not only a hypocrite, Joe. How can you excuse his policies for the past seven years?

He is a torturer and murderer and should be held accountable for his actions. If he were any other third-world leader he would have already been hanged, like Saddam. IMO, Bush is worse than Saddam.

They should be one of Al Gore.

“In the year since Al Gore took steps to make his home more energy-efficient, the former Vice President’s home energy use surged more than 10%, according to the Tennessee Center for Policy Research.
The Tennessee Center for Policy Research, a Nashville-based free market think tank and watchdog organization, obtained information about Gore’s home energy use through a public records request to the Nashville Electric Service.”

It's obvious that this election will be devoid of serious discussion of our energy policies. We've avoided those discussions for nearly 40 years. Why start now? We had the wakeup call in 1973 but pissed those 35 years away.

Does anyone else think the $100,000.00 could be spent in much better ways? How about actually doing something, build some wind turbines, instead of wasting on a political radio advertisement that will do nothing.

And the politicians fiddled while Rome burned.
This I am sure is going to help the" serious debate".

Ah so we see how Obama and his campaign cronies plan to use the money to campaign with, slander attacks, slinging mud, and anything low down to try to knock their opponent down. This style versus running a real campaign where he talks about the hard boiled facts of what he has done before and what he will do in the future. And he represents change how?

HINT:

Bush is not running.
IQ check for howard dean.
is this why dean is no longer Dr. Dean?

Bush and the Grand Oil Party have so screwed up this nation very badly. Jobs are disappearing as fast as gas prices are rising and as fast as people are losing their homes and as fast as company executives are raking in millions in pay and as fast as our climate is changing for the worse.
Remember Enron? Remember your homes forclosed and sold at public auction? Remember your jobs being outsourced to other nations? Remember Katrina mess? Remember the difficulty in making ends meet? The choice in November is clear. The Grand Oil Party of Bush, Chenney, Rush Limbaugh and their fat colleagues will suffer the biggest election defeat come November.

So these candidates can't win on their own merits and accomplishments. Guess that makes sense, since the top of the ticket won't be able to either.

VotePact

** Nader/Gonzalez 2008 **

Speaking about the democrats trying to use high gas prices against the republicans, I came across the following comment by Obama in regards to high fuel prices: "I think that I would have preferred a gradual adjustment." So, is he saying he doesn't have a problem with high gas prices, but rather just the rate it increased? Sounds like the republicans can easily reply to the democrats radio campaign with an actual soundbite from Obama himself, effectively neutralizing the radio campaign (which I highly doubt would sway anyone to begin with).

The W impersonation is a bit funny and bush certainly deserves all the smears that the democratic party can pin on him but there are many more pressing issues that the democrats can use their time on. Obama does not need to use these tactics to win the election.

Democrats don't have to make bush look or sound stupid. He's been doing it since he was born! The GOP = Gray Old Pharts!

kinda funny. repugs hate it because it's a taste of their own medicine.

John G. "won't vote for anyone who resorts to school yard bullying to garner votes" is a flaming idiot.

what do you think the repugs has been doing since Clinton was president, running a clean and honorable campaign? If you believe that, no wonder this country voted for that spoon-fed idiot bush and cronies two consecutive terms.

right or not… it's funny! This is something we all need right now, at least a little laugh to lighten our moods.

Republicans appear aligned with Oil (like a majority of Democrats who won't tell you), and the Democrats are in bed with the Commodity Market Managers (the buyers and sellers of oil – they determine the price on the world market). Now I ask you: who good lord is running this U.S? – The people who give money to the political parties. Were all screwed.

I hear Republicans are hiring Curious George..

As an add on to my earlier comment, forget about gas prices ever getting lower again. Maybe now and then a few cents, but the trend will only be upwards and not down. Demand is ever increasing and production capacity is almost at it's limit, so there is no reason whatsoever that prices will go down. On the contrary, with the ever declining value of the US$ the oil price will probably be listed in Euro making double digit gas prices possible. Time to get our economy back in shape I think and lead a bit more frugal lives.

Where's the real one? On vacation?

Good Grief – it's about time the Democratic Party showed some back bone. We have taken it for years from the Republicans hoping against hope that they would play nice. But nooooo – so I'm glad we're going after them. Pay no attention to the whining you'll hear from the Republicans – they're good at it. But what goes around comes around – snark!

It is about time democrats go on the offensive. Right-wingers need to hear that the country will not take their bush___it anymore! The entire world is sick of the neocons!

Dems control Congress………18% approlal rating**************

That is beacuse the Loser Rep's that are in there block everything they are trying to get done. Wait until we win more seats..then things will get done.

republicans are crying about fairness lol

How many of you people complaining about the DNC read the story? The ads were produced by the "Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee" DCCC not the DNC. Let’s not let a little thing like facts get in the way of our complaining.

Oh gee, the Democrats are going to hire a Bush impersonator. I imagine your point will come across just like a Subway sandwich ad. Way to go! Maybe Bubba can make an appearance also?

Environmentalists have long treated Democrats the same way Monica treated Bill. Because they're both far more concerned about the habitat of the yellow-bellied toe-lint picker than they are real people, viable energy alternatives have been thwarted at every opportunity. The easiest way to lower the price of gas is to increase the value of the dollar on international currency markets. One way to strengthen the value of the dollar would be to instill some confidence by balancing the federal budget. The chances of that happending with these two parties in control is practically zero.

Lame

Obama supporter,
But this seems rather unnecessary.
I would rather them play his own words and use them against them.
Oh well, no one asked me.

Love it!! Bush and Cheney certainly aren't hurting. Their "blind trusts" must be bursting at the seams with their oil profits.

Newsflash II: The Democrats in Congress promised to
bring down energy prices and guess what:

The Dems went back on their word!

Blame the Democrats in Congress!

The funny thing about this whole idea is that with Senator Obama as the titular head of the Democratic party now, all of this type of campaigning is supposed to CHANGE. We aren't going to run these types of campaigns? If Obama is truly an agent for change, and he really is a leader, he will step in and denounce these ads. Sadly, I don't think this is going to happen.

Nothing changes in politics, we just keep re-hashing the same old tactics…

I agree that the companies stink and high gas prices sucks, but come on! At least make the ad funny…

I love how some people blame republicans for all this trouble when the democrats have control of the house and the senate. People talk of Bush's failed policies, when it’s the democratic congress that has failed us, and then turn around, lie, and blame the republicans. Open you eyes people, don't be blind sheep and believe something just because someone with a D next to their name said it, you make me sick to my stomach

Anyone but Obama or McCain 08

Coincidentally, in the news today we learn that the Bush administration helped arrange the no-bid contracts for five western oil companies to development Iraqi oil fields. Not only have our taxpayer dollars been spent on securing lucrative contracts for Bush's friends in the oil industry, American dollars are also being spent to guard the oil pipelines. Just the way I want my taxes to be used – guaranteeing oil industry profits.

The Iraq invasion really was about oil after all, and John McCain has been an enthusiastic participant.

Danny Diaz a Republican? Hiho Sir,
Este Chu No Come Tortillas?

"they all want us to change our habits and drive a prius"

No we don't… we figure you'll be begging to drive a Prius when it reaches $6 a gallon but if you've got the money and want to keep sending it to countries which you've said "hate us" then by all means by a hummer dude. Won't bother me at all…

Kevin said it well – policies are made by Congress, not the president, and it takes a year or so before the effects of those policies become evident on the consumer level. Congress was run by Democrats when lots of these things were approved (and not vetoed by the president). Why are gas prices 2 to 2.5 times higher throughout the very liberal Europe than they are here? For so many others out there, your bitterness and childishness is appalling. I would be offended by a similar ad against Obama or Clinton or McCain because such things are indeed shallow. People who applaud such things and who only can come up with profanities and insults to get a point across are weak and empty inside. Grow up, become civilized and speak intelligibly.

I love how the DNC is going to try and blame gas prices on the GOP when gas prices were just $2.32 when the DNC majority took over just two years ago. Nice try guys.

It just seems to be the same old political crap from both parties, over and over again. This year I'm voting for real change – not Obama style change (raising taxes, etc) but REAL SUBSTANTIVE change. I'm voting Libertarian; I'm voting Bob Barr!

Uh…let's hope the Democrats can actually be funny when they do it. Lame are ads are exactly that…they are lame, regardless if they are true or not. And if anybody does lame, the Democrats do it best…

Just a note on the Mccain drilling policy. If America really wants to make a strategic move toward energy independence it would do best to keep all offshore reserves intact and untapped. Why? Simply because in 25, 30 or 50 years oil will be much scarcer than it is now. While all over the world one by one oil fields will fall dry and stop producing at least then we'll still have an ace up our sleeve. No reason to squander the little we have now to only become more dependent on foreign supplies when it will really start to hurt.

The 05 energy bill! Oh come on, they are playing off our ignorance. In that bill, more money was put into the research for alternative fuels and on the whole taxes increased for Oil companies even though there were some giveaways. Hypocrisy you say? I say typical BS from republican politicians.

Don't be fooled by their lyes – Obama '08

Hey Kevin: The Dems may "control" Congress but they don't have a big enough majority to enact any meaningful legislation, thanks to Mitch McConnell and his idiot cohorts. What do you expect when we have two oil men running the country?

The Democrats are too late! The Republicans already have their own Bush impersonator….. John McCain!

Higher prices for oil is not Bush's fault. It's the fault of all those Americans who voted for Bush. Yes, I blame them 100%. These same Americans are about to vote for McSame. Say hello to $8.00 a gallon oil.

First, let me say that I am proud that I voted against George W. Bush four times: twice for governor and twice for president. I think it is critically important for Obama to be elected in November, because the nation is at the point of no return on many issues like the deficit, oil problems, foreign relations, etc.

That said, this is a sleazy radio ad, and I am disappointed (once again) in the Democratic Party. If the Democrats have a message to communicate, they should simply state it. The use of sleazy marketing techniques is bad enough when all you are doing is selling foot spray or weed killer. Used in a presidential campaign in the oldest and formerly the finest democracy in the world is repugnant.

A popular cell phone commercial depicts the advertiser's competitors as four jerks who fight like little girls over the market. A computer commercial depicts the cool dude in conversation with a dork who looks like a portly Bill Gates. Both of those commercials are disgusting because they smear their opposition by depicting them as preposterous caricatures. They provide NO information to the consumer at all.

This is an election that has the potential to be a turning event in our nation's history, but this ad makes it into just another episode of 'Saturday Night Live.' If there is an adult at the DNC, would he or she please take charge?

does anyone knwo where the real news is located on this site?

Good ad, I hope it runs in California, where regular gas is $4.67.

Glad to see your the candidate of change Barack Hussein Obama. Who you going to balme for things when Bush is no longer and you still have your Democratic Congress screwing things up? Go back to Kenya or wherever your African ancestors are from.

To all my fellow Republican supporters and supporters of Mike Huckbey and Mitt Romney, McCain is too liberal and not conservative. So, vote for Obama in November so Mike Huckbey and Mitt Romney can run in 2012. I guarantee you either Mike or Mitt will win in 2012. So, lets vote Obama now.

Great! Love It.

Gas prices are hurting all Americans and not only at the gas pumps. And the best our political leaders can do is to devise new ads attacking the issue, rather than doing something about it. Why hire an impersonator………why don't they pay George Bush a retainer to do the ad himiself. It is a game to all these inept leaders, and meantime the American people pay the price.

Obama 2008!

Of course Danny Diaz criticized the ad. Would we expect him to approve? He claims that Democrats are being “disingenuous.” How much more straightforward and sincere can the Democrats get?! Whether or not you like the style, at least the ad speaks the truth. Those who would argue that point are the disingenuous ones – and have themselves to blame for being duped.

This guy sounds just like the "good ol' boy" sitting in the White House right now. But he won't be there for much longer!!!

McCain is just a Bush clone. Eveneryone knows that. This commercial spot will remind everyone who is really to blame for the gas crisis….Bush. And it'll remind everyone of who is right in step with Bush…..McCain. Or is it McBush?

VOTE OBAMA IN NOVEMBER !!!

Obama, while bi racial, is considered, BLACK, because of an old fomer law that originated back in Tennessee called the One drop rule.

It stated that if a person had one drop of blood in them that was not considered from "White" heritage, they could not be considered white.

So if every person in your family was from Ireland, but your great great great grandmother had a child with a man who had a grandmother who had a half middlesastern father, that person would not be considered white, even if he was 95% pure irish blood.

So don't blame Obama for being considered black, Blacks didn't put that law on the books back in the early 1900's.

Lets face it, the Republicans have run the country into the ground. Even the Senate minority leader recognizes that. The Republican brand is in the toilet right now. Anybody can beat the Republicans as we speak. That's why they are trying so hard to paint McSame as an Independent Republican – whatever that means. But you know, if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, then guess what, it is a big fat duck! That's why we call him McSame and McBush. CNN make sure you post this!!!

Yes We Can
Obama 08 12

To hear the Republicans react to this add is HILARIOUS!!!

EVERYONE KNOWS THAT BUSH AND HIS WHOLE CLAN ARE OIL MEN….WHEN WILL IT NOT JUST BE PLAUSIBLE BUT PROBABLE THAT WE WENT TO WAR IN IRAQ TO DRIVE THE PRICE OF OIL UP?

MCCAIN WILL BE LOOSER.

NO ONE CAN SAVE HIM.

OBAMA 08.

Wow. Did the DNC get this idea from Rush ?

But George W. Bush had never heard gas was going to $4 a gallon

Repulicans have ruined this country. They are sucking blood from citizens here. They needs to be fired from their job. Come November, come any election, local, or state or federal they are bad for the citizens.

Sometimes you have to use humor to tell the truth. You've heard a joke before and thought about it later and said they may be joking but there is some truth to it.

Obama, has done nata in his life on gas prices, and making fun of bush is not going to get things done. The Dems have sat in control for two years and gas is $2 higher than when they took back control, should tell you something. We need McCain, a diverse energy policy is much better than a just tax em oil companies policy!

Nuclear, Drilling, alternative fuels, all of the above for me please.

McCain 08! I was for Hillary but boy can't stomach her campaigning for Obama!

I think its a clever ad, especially with the constant reminder that McCain will be another Bush. The mentality will not change with another republican in office. There is propaganda on behalf of both parties, I can't say that I disagree with McCain's attacks on Obama, or Obama's attacks on McCain, all I know is that I agree much more with the values/beliefs of the democratic party

Had to comment on veterans returning from Iraq and Afghanistan having to live on the street and being homeless. What a crock. Unfortunately the military like the rest of the businesses in the world gets some slugs. There is too many veteran programs for veterans to have to live on the street. Most of these veterans who are living on the street are making the choice to do so not because they have to but because they don't want to work and fit into society. A few of these could be damaged by the war and could easily be policied by the goverment and placed into veteran homes .As a veteran of twenty years i don't buy that bull. I served from vietnam forward and never had to live on the street. If they didn't take advantage of a college education while they were in their they could easily get a job with veteran preference points through civil service. If that don't work then stay in the military. It isn't that bad of a life and pays now better than most civilian jobs.Veterans should be mobile and be willing to take a job anywhere in the U.S. If you can't find a job where you live than move and find one. These veterans sound about as stupid as them people in the civilian sector who live in a ghetto and then claim they have it so bad. Most of these veterans sound like the few whinners from the vietnam war. Feel sorry for me and let me have my little bit of publiciity and then a lot of these veterans are playing the system for a check under the ptsd.

NOW I'VE HEARD IT AL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DEMOCRATS GROW UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And you wonder why you can't get into the White House!!!!!!!!!!! Anyone dumb enough to believe something that ridiculous would have to support Oblahblah.

PRESIDENT MCCAIN '08

Wow is this where the convention cash went? what a joke my former party has became……….they have done nothing but insults and nothing positive ever since they have been voted in as the majority party in washington………..now instead of getting rid of the guy we voted then in to get rid of they bring in others to act like him.

I voted for Bush twice. I know…I know…merely admitting as such might have most of you disregarding my post right off the bat.

However, the point I am trying to make is…that even I will tell you that Bush has done a poor job at weening our country off of oil during his Presidency. Not that he is alone in that…but then again, no one else had been given such a unique opportunity to make major changes, like he was after 9/11.

And for you dopes who keep crying about the Liberal Boogey Men trying to "Cram" an environmentalist agenda down your throats….better open up wide and get ready to swallow something big…..because the rest of the world and country doesn't have time you and your kind to wake up and smell the Co2.

haha, that's awesome!

I swear to god, BUSH is the worst leader in the worlds history.

SEE WHERE WE ARE 8 YEARS AFTER HE TOOK OFFICE!

Use commom sense and your wallet to vote!

To bad Al Jolson wasn't still around the republicans could hire hi, to portray obama. Black face and all. Seriously gas was less than $2.00 per gallon when the democrats took over congress. Now it's $4.00. The democrats have failed at everything they promised when they took over and they still can't get what they want from a lame duck president. It's the dems that are ruining this country not the republicans.

I'd vote for a chimpanzee over Bush. Its going to take 20+ years to undo the crap he's done.

The only problem I can see with the W ad is this: GWB hasn't a CLUE what the price of gasoline is today. Now, if you folks want to poke a little fun, a LEAST make it believable.

We have had a Democratic Congress for 2 years and NOTHING has been done by them…Al Gore. a Democrat, supposedly champions the environment and TALKS about it But uses enough energy at his mansion to fuel 230 homes. Danschle, Kennedy, etc. "caved in" on the war in Iraq… Democrats talk the talk but this registered Democrat has yet to see them walk the Walk.

Nice ad but here is in charge of congress. Ah Obama and his crew of tax and spend Democrats.

Yes, if the democrats wanted cheaper oil, they could have voted for it. They are in the majority so the lick is on them

And Obama couldn't care less. Hillary and McCain wanted a tax holiday and so do I.

We also want drilling in Alaska. So let's get the hard slog democrats out of office quickly.

I'm confused, how is Bush responsible for the rise in oil prices? It is my understanding that it is our party that is preventing the drilling on our territories.

Sorry guys, but you have to be honest or no one is going to believe our party.

Obama '08

Wow, can we say 5th grade…………

OKay, now THIS is the lamest thing I've ever heard.

So the party that is on the record as being in favor of higher energy prices is going to run ads against people they claim have helped to give us higher energy prices? And to do this they are going to drag out their favorite boogeyman, even though he isn't running for office anywhere?

Meanwhile, gasoline is still cheaper than milk and quite a few brands of "spring" water.

What a magnificent idea. But, if we want an impersonator for Bushy Bushy, we should have looked in the zoo, you know, the monkey cage…

He's not even very good! Come on Dems, crank it up! We cannot have McCain as pres! Obama is amazing in many many ways, policies, charisma, intelligence, and I sincerely hope those beneath him making these kinds of campaign blunders do not screw things up for him. Get with it folks, don't sabotage our own best chance.

does this website ever have anything positive to say about republicans or Bush, it is absolutely disgusting what you put out there it is always negative republican bashing and pro-democrat!!! I have never seen anything positive from a conservative prospective.

SAVAGE RULES, HE SHOULD BE OUR NEXT PRESIDENT!!!

eli June 30th, 2008 12:20 am ET

PATHETIC

Yes, the Republicans are VERY pathetic.

Isn't this the type of campaigning Barrack Obama is supposed to be against, has pledged to speak out against, and has skewered McCain when other unrelated groups did it and he didn't condemn it quickly enough? Hmm….it will be interesting if the Senator is silent or not which will indicate if politics as usual is "ok" with him as long as it makes President Bush the whipping boy and/or helps in November.

The real reason for high gas prices is the Democrats have been refusing and blocking any further drilling of oil and the building of nuclear power plants since the oil embargo many years ago. Hiring silly brainless comedians is about all you would expect from the Democrats because they are the joke, on us.

I am so sick of hearing Democrat vs Republican. I thought we elected these officials to make smart decesions and to do what is best for this country. It seems like all they are doing is "playing" in Washington. I hope this country can get it together or we are gonna be in big trouble.

p.s. the other day I asked a black co-worker who she was voting for and she said Obama (go figure). I asked her why and she said " blacks just wanna see what it would be like if there was a black president". I just shook my head and walked off.

Lets see. The Republicans were in the majority in Congress for 12 years and gas went up to $2.21/gallon.

The Democrats have had the majority for less than two years and that price has doubled.

Is anybody out there still dumb enough to think high gas prices are Bush's fault?

CNN…………The ad will run Monday through Friday in radio markets throughout the country, according to the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, with a total buy of more than $100,000………….
They need to get $$$$ for the CONVENTION…….Good impersonator ……..Sounds JUST like STUPID BUSH!!!!!!!!

1. Using an impersonator, for radio adds, how low .
2. Congress had hearings on Friday and the Democratic man wanted the news media to show the faces of our oprerators gathering information around the world. How anti-american .
3. Lets keep America strong and clean up the mud throwing contest for the "November votes".

So when Bush is no longer President, where will the comedians get all their material?

All politicians are trash!!

.
Another underhanded LIE coming from the democrats!!!!!!

Just remember that it is the democRATs that will not allow us to drill.

NO to drilling in ANWR

NO to drilling off shore

NO to drilling in Colorado

NO to nuclear power

A swith to alternative fuels will take 15 – 20 years

Get ready for $8 – $10 a gallon gasoline thanks to the democRATs!!

Dems – you should be ashamed of yourself…as usual, it's all about do or say anything to win…look at the records and you'll see that the Senate (Dem controlled) has as much to do with our high oil prices as any group, but of course they won't mention that…I'm not saying that the GOP did anything to brag about from '00-'04, but when the Dems took over in '04, they had run on a ticket promising changes and they've been the most "do-nothing" group ever, all to the demise of America

Last election the dems were swiftboated constantly and Kerry did not respond. George W. and the repub's showed they were willing to do anything to win. I'm glad Barrack and the dem's are pulling out all the stops to win.

No surprise here. The democrats have been impersonating responsible lawmakers for the last 25 years.

Once again, I am ashamed of the party I have been a lifelong member of. An Obama presidency would be a disaster for this country.

The high gas prices are the direct responsibility of the Democratic leadership. New oil from coastal areas can be in the system in less than 10 years – 5 years where the infrastructure is in place, like California. The "20-year" scenario offered by the Democrats is another in a long list of big lies. I plan to be alive in 10 years and hope to be alive in 20. It is the Democrats that destroyed all of the good paying blue-collar jobs. Oil, gas, coal, chemicals, autos, steel – growth and security in these industries were crippled or tanked by the central planners of the Democratic Leadership and their anti-American environmental buddies. All you former steel workers in Pittsburgh – the air is clean now, I hope you enjoy driving a taxi of flipping burgers for a living.

Obama offers us poverty and hopelessness, a nation of limited opportunity. McCain, as frustrating as I find him, at least offers a real approach to the energy situation. Obama is an empty suit that offers us nothing.

Bush/McCain

Pro Life
Pro Military
Love of Country

Another example of why the Bush administration and his merry band of crooks need to be investigated by an impartial justice department. I say it again, Hillary Clinton for the next Attorney General of the United States. Then maybe, we will get to the bottom of all the law breakings and coverups that have prevailed during the Bush administration. Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, and Carl Rove read this and weep. Go Obama.

Wonder what else the democrats are using an impersonator for?

Sure, Travis from Spokane, I suppose it could be a government conspiracy to keep gas prices high…… or it could be the fact that every day there is less oil in the world and more people who want it. That might be at least part of the problem….

Bush attacked Iraq for OIL, sqandering billions of taxpayers dollars and killing innocent americans and Iraqis.OIL-4-BLOOD.

Where is the oil now? they are with the oil companies and with the added tax breaks, oil companies are making record profits and smiling to the bank.

all actions taken by one dictator – George Bush.

McShame want's to carry on the Bush legacy of 100yrs war. Not This Time…

Democrats two years in control of the House and Congress and GAS PRICES HAVE DOUBLED!!!! This Nation will beg for "W" after 4-8 years of the Democrats in control of The House -Congress and the White House!!!
By then it will be to late for all of us-we will be "SLAVES" to the Democratic Party!!! Hope you like SOCIALISM!!!! If Obama wins I hope that the Republicans can at least take over Congress or the House to keep balance of power!! Obama has some good points,but will not be allowed to do them,because Reid and Pelosi will stop those!!

Perhaps the Lefty Congresscreatures should hire two more impersonators: One for Pelosi and one for Reid. Their job would be to come up with an actual plan to solve some of these problems rather than just constantly pointing the finger of blame. Then, the impersonators can debate each other and maybe there will finally be an intelligent dialogue.

Dems are in control of Congress. Where is YOUR plan? Oh that's right, it's the one written by the Sierra Club.

Grow up, people.

This reminds me of something the obama campaigne pulled during Memorial Day

In World War Two we didn't have the concept of post traumatic stress syndrome. People had to basically handle it on their own," he said. Referring to an uncle who had been one of the first U.S. troops into Auschwitz, the concentration camp, Obama said: "The story in the family is he came home and just went up in the attic."

Historians would have told him Auschwitz was not liberated by U.S. troops but by those of the Soviet Union.

Seems like more than his uncle belongs in the family attic.

So he and his campaigne have decided to ruin our 4th of July holiday as well, is there no decency left in this country at all. We celebrate freedom because of the lives and blood has been the cost.

It is moves like this one that will keep Democrats out of the White House! It only belittles the Dems to adopt and initiate a stance and use the same tactics that has turned the majority against Republicans. The only thing missing from this advertisement is Karl Rove to give it the Republican seal of approval is Karl Rove!

I'd like to see the Dems take the high road vs. the Republican Road and show Americans they are above not equal to the Republican brand of dirty politics.

My view after reading the script of the six digit figure radio advertisement, it is very childish, unprofessional, and pointless. Their opponent in this election is John McCain and although the majority around the world believe he is a Bush Clone, to use the Bush colloquial version of english jargon in my mind is tasteless and just brings the Dems down to the Republican Level. Surely for $1000,000. they can do a better job of spending people's hard earned tax dollars!

I am deeply annoyed and disappointed in my Democratic party and its leaders. My party has been in power in both houses of Congress for several years now and we are about to take the White House, and if comedic impersonation sof the President is the best my party can do about the energy crisis, then we are in deep doo doo. C-mon Barack, Kennedy, Kerry, Clinton, Biden, Clarke, Reid, Pelosi — DO SOMETHING! DO ANYTHING! Please do not stoop to politics as usual and sit on your hands. End the War in Iraq like you promised and come up with a gas – energy policy. If you are not going to do those two fundamental things, then I may as well vote Republican and save my money on taxes with McCain so I can continue to fund the war and the high gas prices

Come on, we all know the Republicans are the smear campaign masters. I applaud the Dems for hitting first for a change, and this is NOT swiftboating, it an attempt at using humor to drive home the point we all know already – Big Oil and the Republicans sleep in the same bed. It is not in any way far-fetched or out of line to link the oil crises with Bush and the "Grand Oil Party".

Democrats make us all sick. Howard Dean and Obama are about as low as this country can go. I'm not sure there is even a word that can describe what they are. This whole process is pathetic. If you people don't wake up and see what this man or whatever he calls himself is, this whole country is going to be in bad trouble or worse.

Kevin,

I agree with you 100%. You are right!! Who can the democrats blame when things get worse? They won't admit they are also to blame for the mess we are in right now.

All the jokes should be leveled at Obama who is the national JOKE. And McCain will get the last laugh…sorry DNC..ya'll messed up 'giving' Obama the nomination. I'm no longer voting Democrat along with 18 million other good people of this country.

This action is ridiculous and I am not a republican. The democrats are running a foolish campaign now. The first thing they did was to select a candidate rather than chose who the voters elected the candidate. I am still very upset with the DNC and the superdelegates after they selected Obama over Clinton rather than listen to the voters who had voted in favor of Clinton. That's why I would rather see McCain win in November over Obama and show the DNC that you cannot play around with democracy. It is suppose to be fair but this time it was not because the democrats have a selected candidate rather than an elected one.

Yep…here we go again…blaming George Bush for everything! Yep, the whole Katrina fiasco was his fault too!! Don't you dare blame the incompetent former Govenor and current mayor!! Yep, my guess is that George went into Iraq for oil…that's why it's so cheap. You spoiled Americans, you have to blame somone…and you Dem's are the best of the best for that!! Just look at Billy Clinton!

PS: Don't forget…you dem's control congress…opps!! Sorry…you forgot!

I've always considered myself a democrat, always. I guess I bought into the "party for the people" description. I'm not sure if it is that I am getting older and wiser, or if the party is changing (I think the latter) but I feel the democrats no longer represent me. This kind of nonsense certainly does not represent me. I was thrilled when the dems took control of congress two years ago……..flash forward to now; how can they have the audacity to blame Bush for everything? The dems are certainly walking a fine line right now. I never voted for Bush and I can find many things he did wrong, on the other hand, I also can point to many things the dems have done wrong.

It is about time the DNC and their related organizations go on the attack against the republican congress people. They need to continue to point out the ills of the Bush Administration and the blinding support. the republican congress people have given to this effort.

Further, the DNC organizations need to start focusing in on the Republican votes in congress which clearly shows they have sided with BIG BUSINESS over the people.

KEEP ON PUSHING DNC

The Rupublicans are mad. They love to attack the Democrats, but if the Dems fight back , the Republicans get mad!! hee,hee, hee

The disgusting way which the Democrats have conducted themselves the past eight years towards the nations President has put another stain on their already soiled reputation as a party. When your only hope to get elected is forming a coalition of the ignorant, the easily manipulated and the uninformed it speaks volumes about your party. BO is a prime example of why the young and the ignorant are not relied upon to make major decisions. They simply have no idea what they are doing!

It's ironic that the Democrats are ones who want those gas prices to stay sky high by preventing us from drilling in ANWR and off the coast of Florida, California and the Gulf of Mexico where we know oil exists. Then they blame Bush for high gas prices when the President does not control gas prices.

What jerks.

They say the greatest show of respect is imitation. Didn't know the Dems liked Bush so much.

I think Republicans forget that they had control of congress for 12 years and did nothing. Bush backers are getting screwed like everyone else, but is loving every minute of it. OBAMA 08.

This guy is a joke.
He doesn't even sound like Bush.
Now Frank Caliente does.

So this is what Sen. Obama means when he talks about changing the political climate? Good to know.

Oh yeah. Hired is the key word here. And spend those dollars smearing someone's name while our Congress has the worst ever, in the history of the US, approval rating. Way to show our smarts. Shows the emptiness of our party. And its thought processes. No one in our party deserves anymore time in office. Clean Sweep '08!

Another "impersonator"? Thought the Dems already had one with Obama!

As a Democrat, I'm starting to get really discouraged with all the behavior from the Democrat's Obama campaign this year and it's really starting to reflect the lack of moral good judgement needed for the presidency. The more childish and ignorant this campaign gets, the more likely Democrates are going to go in drones to McCain. Hopefully the Democratic party can act like they have a little more sense and get back on track! We need a leader like Bill Clinton, and not a return to the Jimmy Carter 70's.

If we're not screwed enough already by this Bush Administration, they prepare for war with Iran. Let's just do whatever Israel tells us to do and drive this country into a depression and fulfill the wishes of Bin Laden. The world laughs at our stupidity.

Stragety my friends, stragety. Smoke out the culprit.

Obama '08

Our oil crisis, does anyone recall the secret meetings the White House and all the BIG oil companies had not too long ago. Remember, the content of those meetings were never revealed to the American public, or even to the Congress. Now we're faced with $4 plus per gallon of gas. Heck, Congress doesn't have to approve everything for it to become law or even reality.

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.

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.

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.

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?

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.

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

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

They should have Frank Caliendo do the Bush voice lol

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

This is Obama's new unifying politics?

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.

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!

Why didn't they just use real bush quotes?

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"

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.

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!

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!

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.

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!

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

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.

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.

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!!!

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.

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.

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

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!!

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

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

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

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.

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.

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!

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!!!

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

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.

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"

Sophomorish and dirty–normal Democratic politics..

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

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.

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.

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

GOOD GOING GUYS.

WE HAVE LOST OUR ECONOMIC STANDING IN THE

WORLD DUE TO GREED & DECEPTION. WE NEED

TO MAKE OUR CASE SIMPLE & FACTUAL.

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.

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..

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 !!!!!

is there a mcabel in the hhouse?

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

Come on Dems.

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.

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 !

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

It's Great, I Love It!!

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.

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

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

P.U.M.A.

McCain – 2008

The Dems have finally located their testicles.

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.

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

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?

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.

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

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!!!!

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.

PATHETIC

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

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

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

The Republicans are going to use thier slime machine too.

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

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.

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.

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.

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!

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.

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

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

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!

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!!!

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

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.

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

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.

Why are republicans so clueless?

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

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

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

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.

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?

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

that doesnt even sound like W

That was a lame Bush. Shoulda hired Frank Caliendo.

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

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

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

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.

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 should be interesting…

Obama '08!

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.

cnn is a bunch of donkey porkers

Another crack head in the wacky world of the dimwitcrats

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

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

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.

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…:)

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.

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"

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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

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?.

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

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

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

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

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…

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?

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

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.

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

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!

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

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

Idiots

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.

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

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.

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.

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

Obama08

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.

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.

hahahahaha BRILLANT

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

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

Dr. Bob:

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

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.

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

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

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.

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.

Democrats learning some tricks from Republicans…eh..

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

HMMMMMMMMMMM

Blame Bush for high gas prices

Dems control Congress………18% approlal rating

Bush ………23% approval rating

yep, his fault

go figure

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

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.

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

HYPOCRITES!

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

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.

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!

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

Can't wait to hear it!!!

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.

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…

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.

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!!

LOL!!!!!!!

Good times guys, good times…..

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.

Hey I like this !
DM

Why?

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

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.

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?

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.

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!!!

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

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

Nationalize the scumbags.

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

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

HA that's too funny!

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

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

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!

What an interesting ad! I like it!

OBAMA 08 and 12

What an interesting ad! I like it!

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!

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!!**)

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

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

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!

VOTE OBAMA!

Fantastic!

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!!!!!!!!!!!!!

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

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….

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