The new McCain ad suggests Sen. Obama's policies would lead to higher taxes.

(CNN) – Even after becoming the target of a spoof by celebutante Paris Hilton, the McCain campaign is keeping up the celebrity theme in its new advertisement targeting Sen. Barack Obama, the presumptive Democratic nominee.

Like the McCain camp’s earlier “Celeb” ad, the new ad “Family,” refers to Obama as “the biggest celebrity in the world.” But the new 30-second spot does not use images of pop singer Britney Spears, Hollywood starlet Paris Hilton, or any other celebrities.

The McCain camp stirred controversy and generated media buzz last week when it unveiled “Celeb,” an advertisement that appeared to suggest Obama lacked substance – a charge frequently leveled at Hollywood celebrities like Hilton and Spears. The Obama campaign immediately responded to “Celeb” with an ad called “Low Road.”

McCain’s celebrity-themed attacks on Obama also caught the attention of the Hilton family. Kathy Hilton, Paris Hilton’s mother and a contributor to the McCain campaign, called “Celeb” a “waste of money” and Paris Hilton has weighed in with an online video spoofing “Celeb” and poking fun at McCain’s age.

“Family” will air in 11 key states, according to the McCain campaign.

UPDATE: The Obama campaign has released a statement responding to McCain's "Family" ad.  "Is the biggest proponent of George Bush’s tired, failed policies ready to bring about change?  Another day brings another dishonest attack from John McCain," said Obama spokesman Bill Burton in the statement.  Burton also disputed the suggestion that Obama would raise taxes if elected. "It’s time to retire these old policies and bring new energy to America,” Burton added.

Script For "FAMILY"

ANNCR: Is the biggest celebrity in the world ready to help your family?

The real Obama promises higher taxes, more government spending. So, fewer jobs.

Renewable energy to transform our economy, create jobs and energy independence, that's John McCain.

JOHN MCCAIN: I'm John McCain and I approved this message.

If I got beat up by a Vietnamese kid when I was in grade school, does that qualify me with a record of service to run as a Presidential candidate? Or do I also need to be and old, wrinkly wife-hating flip-flopper?

Carol   August 6th, 2008 12:36 pm ET

McCain looks more and more like a bumbling, old, fool every day.

LLMTruth   August 6th, 2008 12:35 pm ET

You Obama haters that agree with McBrainless' characterization of Obama as some type of celebrity; I would kindly remind you of two individuals who were and are celebrities.

One is Arnold Schwarzenegger, who based candiacy solely on his POULARITY as the Terminator is running one of the largest state economy's in the country. And not very well, I might add, especially in the aftermath of decreasing all state employee's to minimun wage. Yeah, great leadership there. Where he get that idea from; a movies script?

The second one who was, by the way, one of the most beloved Presidents of our time: Ronald Wilson Reagan. A very popular celebrity President.

Apparently, you Obama haters as well as the Republican smudge machine forgot all about these two individuals. And don't forget baketball player Bill Bradley, former Senator. Oh yeah, that former The Love Boat star whose name escapes me at the moment.

Besides, being popular isn't exactly a bad thing considering one would need to appeal to both sides of the isle as well as the vast majority of people in this nation, not to mention other global leaders. It becomes a lot easier to deal with foreign dignitaries if you are well liked. Not like Dubya who people can't stand, here or abroad. Or McBrainless, who people think is suffering from dementia and/or senility.

The republicans do seem to be ignorant. It seems they would rather have someone who has to show up at Harley-Davidison events and offers up his wife as a trophy for the Buffalo Chip winner. How pathetic is that?

Enough said, you right-wing McBrainless drones!!!!!

Mike, Boston   August 6th, 2008 12:34 pm ET

Mr. g and SMILE...

First....why is calling people names all Obama supporters can do? I just don't understand...I gave you a simple social experiment to try if you were interested in doing so and all you can do is call people names.

I am sorry if you didn't like the results of the experiment, but I take my vote seriously.

And yes....I do have a wonderful job, so I am not sure where you were going with that.

And smiles.....I don't know where you are writing from but at least in major city newpapers, there are jobs for CEO's.

If only you both put so much energy into researching the candidates as you do into calling other people names....you would probably come to the only logical decision in this election.

And CNN...why do you let these Obama supporters call other people who disagree with them names? Big Mr. g almost made me cry.

Mr. Manhood McCain was threatened when a wealthy beautiful blonde female campaign donor threw McCain under her bus over exploiting her daughter for his benefit. Bravo to Kathy Hilton's daughter for seizing the opportunity to put out her campaign video. Seems like McCain has been nicely B-Slapped by two women who are more famous and powerful than he will ever be.

David   August 6th, 2008 12:33 pm ET

the problem with you, Obama, is that you call for "new energy" and change but you do not bring one diddley dang thing new to the table. there will be no change coming from you. not with the advisors you've lined up and the flip-flops you've made (just like McCain) to get you in line with what the public favors. and don't get me started with the fact both these candidates are bought and paid for. it's way to obvious.

How long does he think the public will put up with it? He tries to disguise his anger and bitterness by saying it's all in good fun.

As McCain is running on 26 years of experience, shouldn't his ad feature what he HAS DONE to help families during that time?? Shouldn't that be what voters and the press are asking.

He is running on his celebrity as a war hero (even though only 60 pages of his 600 page military history have actually been published) and as a maverick in the Senate.

B'ham Ron   August 6th, 2008 12:22 pm ET

Sen. McCain.!!! .ahh did anyone tell you that you will need a certain amount of vitality to be the commander and cheif ?

Your stump speeches are flat, sub or below flat they sound like dry whispers.

Granted if elected, you will have power bestowed on you with the high office, however you'll still need to have some get up and up power of your own. What about Ms. McCains needs....she be wanting the first lady treatment.. John, perhaps you should condsider the vitality factor again.

Look man, please take your short on energy, and brains to the end on the line. Better yet, please just go to the ranch and relax.

Count the money you have, or count all the money you block for veterans.

Let me get this straight....the President is still popular with Conservatives, right? What is the approval rating of the President?? Has he done anything bad in your opinion(especially if you're a Conservative)?? How do Republicans feel??? And you got it, just connect the dots....ohh and by the way, everybody keeps stalking about Congress, energy, flip-flops, etc. But it seems like everyone is missing the bigger story here.......I I haven't seen much flip-flop than Conservatives themselves!! LOL!!! I thought they were so tough or so smart, LOL!!! It seems to me they're following people who are gonna listen to them........even if they're party(Republican) didn't care for them!

I want to hear more about how John Old-Politics McCain values family after he encouraged his wife to join an often top-less "BlueChip" beauty contest.

Bill Charlotte, NC   August 6th, 2008 12:22 pm ET

Is "Biker John" and his "Buffalo Chip Queen" ready to help our families? What I have seen so far is an old man transfixed to a script, propped-up by his bleached blond trophy, and yelling about Obama, while offering nothing.... except "DRILL HERE! DRILL NOW!" Oh and there is "I am going to WIN the war, the only way you can WIN it, by WINNING it!"

By the way, those of you who think his energy proposal is so great ("I am going to build 45 nuclear power plants"), who among you wants one of those in your community; or better yet, who wants the radioactive deposits stored in your state? I don't want it in mine.

Cynthia   August 6th, 2008 12:20 pm ET

If I were a Republican donor I would be mad as hell that he was throwing away good money after bad with those dumb commericals. He doesn't have to look back too far to see that Senator Clinton went negative when she got desperate and never recovered.

Still for the Hill,
Please get your facts straight. Myself, my husband and my brother in law have all served with HONOR, yet we battle every day to have our needs met. My brother in law served in Desert Shield, Desert Storm, (3) tours in Iraq and (2) in Afganistian. He does not recieve anywhere near the gracious benefits you are referring to. Why, because according to McSame those benefits are to "generous" for him and McSame voted against us. What that means is, instead of support ing the troops McSame voted to provide more funding to the reconstruction of Iraq, knowing good and well that the Iraq government has been sitting on their windfall profits, while the american tax payers pick up the tab. McSame can not afford to pull out of this war, he was the greatest cheerleader to turn away from catching Bin Ladin, and invade and colonize Iraq. If you have not served, dont even try to speak for those who have. As far as his son being in the service, it is common knowledge, but his son is shown respect for his safety, unlike the disrespect his father has for anyone serving since Vietnam.

JOHN MCCAIN: I'm John McCain and I approved this message."

Wait a second... Renewable energy? The keystone of McCain's entire energy policy is to open up offshore drilling? If nothing else, that is the major publicized difference between his policy and Obama's. Yet he claims to be advocating Renewable energy?

Charlatans and liars should not be President.

blue   August 6th, 2008 12:15 pm ET

SNAP!, McCain

The McCain campaign had a longer statement:

Paris Hilton might not be as big a celebrity as Barack Obama, but she obviously has a better energy plan. It sounds like Paris Hilton supports John McCain’s ‘all of the above’ approach to America’s energy crisis — including both alternatives and drilling. In reality, Paris Hilton may have a more substantive energy policy than Barack Obama.

McCain is alienating the rich... clever move on his part. If he trashes the Hiltons, what's to stop him from trash-talking the rest of our nation's wealthy? McCain's an idiot... and if our nation's wealthy continue to support him, their idiots too.

While on the topic of celebrity politicians... let's do a head count:

Arnold Schwarzenegger = Republican
Fred Thomas = Republican
Sunny Bono = Republican
Ronald Reagan = Republican
Ben Stein = Republican

Once again... Republicans can only offer a weak argument when confronted by the facts. They make 'ignorant' a 'cool' thing!!

Now, you see, I don't get the problem with Obama being a "celebrity". By definition, a celebrity is someone who is famous. Obama is famous as is John McCain, George Bush, George Washington, Abraham Lincoln etc, etc. Just because he is famous, does not mean he is not qualified to lead – he is, he showed that on his trip to Iraq and Europe. Just as McCain is shown he is not fit to lead by behaviour over the past few weeks. This country does not need a whiny, old man in the White House.

McSame, old man, the republican inherited a surplus from the Clinton’s administration; Bush and the republican squander all that money. Bush initiated the tax cut and after 7 years, our deficit has ballooned to over $500 billions. McCain was in Washington all that time as well as all the republicans who have controlled the presidency and the congress for six years. They have done nothing to help Americans. They don't take responsibility. McLiar spends people money with negative ads, scaring people while a lot of Americans are suffering. McBush proposes to cut corporate taxes from 35% to 25%, this old man think that cutting taxes while waging wars will improve the US economy! No so Sir! Those who will vote for you will get what they deserve; the good thing is that Americans people are smart and good for the most part, hence you will not win.

Republicans are not ignorant, but for the most part they are hypocrites. Some of them use religions and talk about it but deep inside them, they don't believe in God, they mock him. Some claim to be pro-life, but they cannot support the living. If Jesus was born today, the republicans would crucify him, yes they are worst than the ancient Romans.

RDS   August 6th, 2008 11:58 am ET

So let me get this straight. The republicans are arguing that Obama is not ready to lead b/c he's a celeb, this coming from the same party that voted an actor into the White House...PRICELESS. Since when has being inspiring and popular a bad thing. I guess we have gotten so used to hating our President and beind dislike around the world that we've become turned off by something different.

I know it and the rest of the country and the world knows it too. America is still asleep and stuck on stupid with all of the hate that is stored up in her. McGrumpy is so out of touch that he even tried to enter his wife into a strip contest and didn't know it, well on the other hand maybe he did know.

THe media is made up of idiots. The Mcain camp uses these flashy object in the begining to get the media to play them 1000 times per hour and then throws a LIE or MISLEADING statement at the end. Obama is not for higher taxes on 95% of Americans and his take breaks for the not-so-wealthy are three times greater than McCain's. The right always plays the media like idiots and they just keep soaking it up. Obama came out with two hard hiting ads yestarday and because they didn't have flashy intros they were barely picked up by the media.

McCain can't draw a crowd so he insults Obama then goes to a biker rally so he can have one. Then he suggests his wife should enter a topless beauty contest (in front of his daughter) that includes simulated sex acts with bananas-to an audiance of cheering bikers! The old man is SICK and Jealous.

Chut Pata   August 6th, 2008 11:55 am ET

Ooops. McCain now realizes Paris Hilton, a blondie heiress, actually looks like Cindy, the other blondie heiress.

Jack, WI   August 6th, 2008 11:55 am ET

This needs to be repeated:

John McCain’s campaign for president recently took him to the annual Sturgis biker rally where he spoke with veterans at the Buffalo Chip Campground. He could not have picked a more appropriate setting to offer up his wife, Cindy McCain, for a topless beauty contest and brag about his record of supporting veterans.

He failed on both counts, however, to give these veterans the full McCain:

Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America has given John McCain a grade of D for his support of veterans:

Disabled Veterans of America gave him a 20% rating on support for veterans while giving Obama an 80% rating:

Per Vietnam Veterans of America John McCain has “voted against us” in 15 key votes:

John McCain is one of the few veterans running for office that VoteVets has refused to endorse:

To name just a few votes by John McCain against veterans:

McCain voted against an amendment providing $20 billion for VA medical facilities [5/4/06]

McCain voted against providing $430 million to the VA for outpatient care and treatment for veterans [4/26/06]

McCain voted against increasing VA funding by $1.5 billion by closing corporate loopholes [3/14/06]

McCain voted against increasing VA funding by $1.8 billion by ending abusive tax loopholes [3/10/04]

The man even voted against giving combat duty troops more time at home between extended tours.

John McCain had the gall to not only be rude, but to lie to a vet
about his record of endorsements from veteran groups and then had the nerve to refuse further questioning on the issue:

“I’ve been endorsed in every election by every veterans organization that do that, I’ve been supported by them, and I’ve received their highest awards from all of those organizations."
(So John, I guess they don’t know something you know).

Later, during his town hall meeting, McCain admitted he does “not have a perfect voting record,” and then announced QUESTIONS ABOUT VETERANS ISSUES WERE OFF LIMITS: “I will be glad to debate a lot of things, but not that one.”

Not only was John McCain a no show when it came to voting on the GI Bill he opposed, a bill which the American Legion and the Veterans of Foreign Wars fully supported, he now wants to limit veteran health care to only combat related injury in order to save money.

Per retired Army General Robert Gard, McCain’s proposal to limit health care to only combat injuries would “shortchange those veterans who suffer from non-combat related conditions”. McCain is apparently unconcerned about the number of veterans this would affect, including the 15% of female combat veterans who suffer from military sexual trauma.

This comes as no surprise. When the VA was busted recently for
circulating a memo suggesting doctors lower their diagnosis on veterans suffering from PTSD in order to save money, John McCain replied: “it’s not important.”

Older veterans remember well how John McCain and John Kerry shut down all further investigation into remaining MIA/POW in order to open up trade with Vietnam over the protests of family members. They remember full well how these families were treated and talked to by McCain. They also remember how John McCain’s father-in-law immediately opened up a beer industry in Vietnam as soon as trade resumed.

IF the PUMAs hijack the election I will NEVER vote again. The PUMAs must be stopped. They are bitter, jaded angry old white folks who can't stand color..I was a life long Democrat, now I am a registered Independent. IF any Dems vote for McLame you deserve what you vote for!! He will start WW3 and send America into 3rd world status.. The PUMAs dont care about that at all. They only care about ruining the Democratic party and their chance to hold the WH for oh 30-50 years!! IF Hillary weasels her way into the nomination, McCain will surely win and I will renounce my citizenship and relocate to friendlier countries!! America is on the wrong path!!

Unless the "former" maverick is day dreaming or living on the Moon (who in his/her right mind would like to have a 3rd BUSHterm??), if I were McCain I would continue with this "Celebrity" nonsense, make JOE LIEBERMAN my VP and lose the election in style

Love Song   August 6th, 2008 11:53 am ET

McCain has a crush on Obama that he cannot stop talking about the Celebrity.
Can some body write a song about McMad, McInsane, McStupid, McGrumpy, Micky Bushy , McStaker, McIdiot please. The song title shoulb be something like- You by anyother name is still not ready and we will never elect you as you are a dummy.

Independent-Latina-for-OBAMA   August 6th, 2008 11:53 am ET

OH MY GOODNESS! More of the same? Has McCain lost his mind? Honestly, what happened to "we will have a debate that is respectful of the American people"?

SENATOR OBAMA WAS.......NEVER.........NEVER.........EVER........... A MUSLIM! THE INTERNET RUMORS ARE VISCOUS! AND THE PEOPLE TELLING THESE LIES...........SADLY......... TRAGICALLY......CALL THEMSELVES CHRISTIANS! READ JOHN 14:13!

I read one comment that stated that Sen. Obama is the "most dangerous man on earth"!!!!!!!!!!! That's what the GOP USED TO SAY ABOUT DR. MARTIN LUTHER KING!

The GOP do not know how to do anything other than spew FEAR AND HATE.........AND DIVISION!

PLEASE AMERICA WAKE UP AND THINK FOR YOURSELF!

Greg   August 6th, 2008 11:52 am ET

Obama is absolutely NOT qualified to be POTUS. Anyone voting for him clearly hates this country. Anyone who would vote a socialist into power has absolutely no respect for the great country that is the United States.

dimwits August 6th, 2008 11:09 am ET:

It is a good thing Paris and her Mom spoke out against McCain.

Millions of Americans are voting based on their opinion and example.

That should help Obama gain some more of the idiot vote.
--------------------------–

Hey dimwits, Obama already has ALL of the idiot vote! :)

J.C.   August 6th, 2008 11:49 am ET

Paris Hilton, 27, is no longer a child. She should be able to speak for herself without her mother. I think her newest video is the most positive thing she has done in a long time.

McWrinkle knows all about family. He left one – the one he had with a disabled wife – to start a new one with a beer billionaire with a drug problem and whom he married for the money. McWrinkle knows about family all righty.

Steve   August 6th, 2008 11:48 am ET

As long as we're using Hollywood references for campaigns, after seeing what McCain has been doing, I'd suggest he start using the movie title "Dumb and Dumber" for himself and his VP. McCain, you're a good man. Fire your staff. They're giving you horrible advice. You're going to have a replay of getting shot down over 'Nam if you don't get a good ground crew in there.

I used to respect you, Mr. McCain. I didn't always agree with you, but I respected you. Then there was the Keating 5 "incident". Since then you've wandered farther and farther from what mainstream America wants.

Only a good campaign staff will get you in the White House. So far, you're headed for the Retirement House.

conservative   August 6th, 2008 11:48 am ET

Paris ,Clooney ,Obama ,Sarandon ,all birds of a feather enamored with themselves and talking down to the little people that have placed these idiots on a pedestal . If its Obama for America we are really in trouble and bereft of any leadership at all ! What with the hateful liberal thinking on these blogs it is a certainty !

Sally   August 6th, 2008 11:48 am ET

poor McCain, cant stop sulking that nobody notices him in the room... :(

Election Watcher   August 6th, 2008 11:47 am ET

Speaking of MIA senators, how about that committe regarding Afganistan affairs that Obama is the head of, but he never attends the meetings. But I guess he's too busy with pressing engagements like setting up a PR committee for his wife or press conferences regarding whether it was a good idea to show off his kids on national TV.
Wake up PEOPLE!!! This is THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES that we're electing, not the next American Idol.

Just say Nobama '08

Andrew   August 6th, 2008 11:47 am ET

So last week John McCain was "proud" to have created the "Celeb" ad and this week he modifies it to take out what he was criticized for?

Sounds like yet another flip-flop.

OBAMA Supporter all the way   August 6th, 2008 11:46 am ET

McCain....you're following the same path as Hillary Clinton. You should try to learn from her mistakes. Attack ads don't work. It just makes you look bad.

I had a little bit of respect for you up until now, but there is no way you should be commander and chief of the United States of America. This kind of behavior is why the world views us through cynical eyes and why Obama was so well received. We need and want change!

Obama is going to win this hands down!

ls   August 6th, 2008 11:45 am ET

McCain has absolutely nothing to offer us. I don't understand how McCain supporters can't see through McCain and notice what he is actually made of.

All I know is that McCain supporters are willing to jeopardize the future of our children. How close-minded can you be?

We have nothing to lose voting for Obama, who seems to care about turning this country around for the better. Obama has shown this throughout his whole campaign.

A vote for McCain is putting the same old thing in the White House, which will show no positive results. Positive results haven't been McCain's campaign strategy. McCain has run a very negative campaign to this day and will do the same for the country if he is elected.

David Goldman for OBAMA   August 6th, 2008 11:45 am ET

MCNOTHING HAS 30 YEARS OF "EXPERIENCE", LYING.

HE IS PROUD OF THAT, & HIS IGNORANCE, HIS ARROGANCE

HIS BIGOTRY, HIS ADULTERY, HIS ALTZHEIMERS, HIS

MOOCHING ON OUR TAXES, WHILE STATING THAT COLLEGE

TUITION FOR OUR VETS IS TOO GENEROUS. HIS REASONING

IS A FEW NOTCHES BELLOW THAT OF GOOD GEORGE.

Tobby, NY   August 6th, 2008 11:44 am ET

The day you're outsmarted by Paris Hilton is the day you should rethink your campaign strategy.

She's young, she's got a fan base (like it or not) and she's got money to burn. And she doesn't have a horse in this race–McLame does.

Kudos to Paris–that was great.

Tally:
Wrinkled Old White Guy = O
Paris Hilton = 1

Paul   August 6th, 2008 11:44 am ET

So McCain's new adds say Obama means higher taxes.............thats completely correct if you make over $250,000 a year you can expect Obama's tax plans to be less beneficial for you than McCain's. However if your part of the vast VAST VAST!!!!! majority of americans who do not make over $250,000 you can expect Obama's tax plan to benefit you much MUCH MUCH!!!!! more than McCain's.

DAVID   August 6th, 2008 11:43 am ET

Please Honorable Senetor Barack Hussein Obama can you pls show us your birth certificate and put this whole muslim issue to rest.

Lets move on..people he is not a Muslim any more. He is a Christian now. He may have been born a Muslim because his father was a Muslim that is the Islamic law and tradition, but he is a Christian now. He changed his religion. Ask Rev Wright, Rolan Martin and Farrakhan... they all accepts good Honorable Senator Barack Hussein Obama as a Christian. If they can then so can we.

Bibek   August 6th, 2008 11:43 am ET

Why you lying McCain?
Is there anything else you can do besides lying and manipulating people? :-P

From Texas   August 6th, 2008 11:42 am ET

Amen for the McBush old fashion politics, fear and smear.

ron   August 6th, 2008 11:41 am ET

The RNC is really just plain right scared of Sen. Obama.

They are trying their best to dirty up Sen. Obama and divert attention away from their failed policies. The attemps to compare Sen. Obama with the celeb status of Paris Hilton is a smoke screen of what has already been reveal as fact. Sen. Kennedy, and his family members reported that Sen. Obama political status reminds them of JFK.

Michael "C" Lorton, Virginia   August 6th, 2008 11:40 am ET

My hat off to Paris Hilton. She might be preceived as a silly blonde, but at least she is not ashamed to admit it.......right, grey hair dude?

cnn junkie   August 6th, 2008 11:40 am ET

seriously cnn,when are you guys going to call out mccain for all this crazy ads,we have serious probelms in this country,this is geting pathetic.

dr. yes we can   August 6th, 2008 11:40 am ET

whats up,cnn?nothing else on bush's forged letter-gate?you sweepin this under the rug,like the rest of MSM?

Hank   August 6th, 2008 11:40 am ET

McCain and his gang are like the little kids looking over the fence at the popular kids actually doing something. They want to be involved too, but don't know how to go about it. So they talk about the popular kids, as if there's something wrong with being popular, and solving problems.

When you can't beat em, join them. Don't talk about them.

MMN-Milwaukee WI   August 6th, 2008 11:40 am ET

Some GOPers who suffer from Bushmalitis are down right ignorant. Even when Jesus was born his earthly parents had gone to be counted and pay taxes. Having said that I have to remind you that any government the world over has but one simple business and that is…..to collect taxes to allow it to provide services and protection to its citizens…take that away and there is no purpose of a government. Take your pick and whining is not an option.

From Texas   August 6th, 2008 11:39 am ET

Parish Hilton is so right on what she mentioned about the McBush that he's too old for the job and that he always mentioned he's got experience than Senator Obama. Well, people wake up to the fact that McBush is just another Bush's term, fear and smear. That's what they know. He's talking about Obama's inexperience, but Senator Obama detailed his energy plan with much of a substnce. McBush hardly detailed his plan but always attack, attack, smear, smear, fear, fear, well, McBush, sorry but not this time, not anymore, ever. Your old fashioned politics is not gonna work this time and not gonna take my vote. We do not need an old man does not know the difference between shiit and shunni.

James   August 6th, 2008 11:39 am ET

McCain, all his supporters and all the people who work for him are morons.

Tom in CA   August 6th, 2008 11:39 am ET

Come on...John's nerve cells are being knotted up by his tangled Tau proteins....

McWhine & McLie   August 6th, 2008 11:39 am ET

Again, McWhine love to lie. Yes, President Obama would raise taxes when he takes office. But his tax increase will incur to corporations (big oils, big banks etc.) and people earning more than $250,000/yr like me, Bush, Limbaugh, LIEberman, Hannity, Romney, Giuliani, Powlenty, Fiornia & McWhine etc. My wife and I have decided that we wouldn't mind the increase just like Bill Clinton, but I guess McWhine minds that very much since he & the Bufflo Chip Queen need money to pay property tax and credit card debt. So, the only solution to counter Obama's plan is to LIE here, LIE there, and LIE now.

White/female/age 55/Texan   August 6th, 2008 11:38 am ET

"Renewable energy to transform our economy, create jobs and energy independence, that's John McCain"

That's not John McCain, that's Obama. Does McCain actually believe he can steal Obama's plan and tout it as his own? What kind of slight of hand is this?

Tammy - KCMO   August 6th, 2008 11:38 am ET

Maybe Obama needs a restraining order against McCain. McCain seems to be so in love with him that he can't quit talking about him long enough to talk about his own viewpoints on issues. Reminds me of a stalker.

Billy J -Austin-Tx   August 6th, 2008 11:37 am ET

OK.... this right wing... I mean 'Righ Angle' dude sez "Name calling is such a good way to have a political discussion." And then the very next line from him is "Big ear Hussein is getting desperate".

I rue the day that my party was stupid enough to pick Obama over Clinton or Clark. But, I am comforted to know that I am not so blind with hatred that I talk out both sides of my mouth without a hint of shame at my hypocrisy. The Dems are some real lame-brains. That is for sure. But the Republican rank and file are really starting to hit rock bottom on the truth and intelligence meter. Heal thyselves brothers!!! For your parties sake, start paying attention.

Wow! That Paris Hilton take on McCain was great. McCain is like Grandpa Simpson, except older and wrinklier. He is a wrinkled old dude who has lost his magic. I didn't know Paris had it in her. She can have mine in her anytime.

judy, Wisconsin   August 6th, 2008 11:35 am ET

Republicans: popularity, respect abroad and at home with crowds waving American flags == BAD (unless it was Reagan)

Watching McCain's speech at the Sturgis bike rally reading from a script, offering his wife for the beauty pageant he obviously knew nothing about since it was a semi-nude affair. PATHETIC

Neil, CA   August 6th, 2008 11:34 am ET

McCain's no fool, who wants to tick off the Hiltons, and his own mother.

LOL, what a moron.

prairieguy   August 6th, 2008 11:34 am ET

Gee...he doesn't mention his dril dril drill or nuclear in this ad....wonder why!!

He is so lame and full of BS it is getting pathetic!!!!! and he has no shame!!!!!

Chickens   August 6th, 2008 11:34 am ET

Funny how the celebrity bandwagon for Obama has come home to roost...

joining the race card

Done with Dems   August 6th, 2008 11:34 am ET

Dems continue to miss the point. Your candidate is feeding you whatever it is you want to hear that makes you happy. He's not Commander in Chief material. Our enemies in the world would love to have a unicorn chasing liberal in the white house.

Those of you that can't see through Obama's smug and arrogant personality must be hypnotized. The rabbits out of the hat. His magic tricks aren't working on informed and intelligent Americans.

Frank Canada   August 6th, 2008 11:34 am ET

The U.S. has had the biggest clown in recent history in the White House for the past 8 years and now John McCain is auditioning for the part with the same lame lines.

Clowns have their place in a circus but probably not such a great idea in the White House. Do Americans really think this foolishness will benefit them or their country?

Stan   August 6th, 2008 11:34 am ET

McCain's group should listen to Paris and her energy plan because it is a lot better than anything they have put forward.

Eleanor   August 6th, 2008 11:34 am ET

The poor republicans just never learn OR give up
Keep on putting out the same juvenile attacks that they know americans are not falling for any more or shouldnt be!!!
Sadly tho there are still those selective few that are like mindless robots following the dog food republicans to the low road
Why not step out and do somthing different
Take a giant *leap of faith* FOR Obama an individual who is above the frey ...has fresh ideas and will be admired and respected around the world something the Bush and Cheney duo and MCSame have not been for the last 8 years!!!!
Take that* Leap Of Faith* for change or you will be in the same Boat you have been in for the last 8 years rowing to more WAR and Misery for your country and pandering to the big corporations instead of
LISTENING to the people who really count, YOU the American people!!

Selected not elected   August 6th, 2008 11:33 am ET

Let me repeat since CNN blocks me every time:

sO UNTRUE of McCain-

Oprah wasn't involved.

Caroline didn't sway anyone.

The media did not peddle the hype of the new JFK and MLK.

The rappers had nothing to do with his popularity.

Obama was raised up on his own merits.

Ask Hillary… I am sure she will agree.

Susan   August 6th, 2008 11:32 am ET

They are just too stupid for words. Speaking of celebrity, and taxes, why doesn't Cindy release all her taxes? Maybe because of all the tax breaks they get for being not only celebritys but rich. Shure halps make spending 750,000.00 in one month on a credit card easier to swallow. Those 500+ dollar Ferragamo shoes and Cindy's Armani suits need to be paid for somehow. Celebrity is just laughable, I do believe Sen. McCain, you have appeared in movies and TV? Frow up Republicans. You already have most of the country ticked off with your stupid ads that do not address the ISSUES!!!

Kathy, IN   August 6th, 2008 11:32 am ET

So McCain is encouraging his wife to participate in a lewd beauty contest–brilliant campaign strategy.

America needs to wake up; the same type of campaign these guys are running is exactly how they will run their administrations. John's is lame, Hillary's was financially inept. Barack's could be better; I just think it's difficult for him because of all the distractions.

JA Cook   August 6th, 2008 11:32 am ET

I take it that there is no campaign of integrity as McCain promised.

He has nothing to offer so he diminishes his opponent. How Bush league is that?

McCain 08
Better than Bush?

BJGT   August 6th, 2008 11:31 am ET

McCian can't articulate his positions and is totally out of touch with today's realities – It will be 4 more years of dim-wit Bush if he is elected.

Chuck, Euigene Oregon.   August 6th, 2008 11:31 am ET

McCain's and his ad's are becoming a laughing stock of the international community. This man sees to think being a jokester, and having fun is the cool thing to be; however, from what I am hearing from my friends in other countries McCain is a joke.
I have been asked to find an explaination of the McCain "All the Above" Energy Plan. What does it mean, what does McCain's "All the Above Energy Plan" consist of? I have been unable to find any thing that gives any concrete information to answer that question.

Nikki   August 6th, 2008 11:31 am ET

I can't wait to see what McCain's going to do about the gang of ten's energy proposal. It's ironic that he's calling for Congress to go back to work when he's been M.I.A. nearly this entire year. McCain wants to claim that he has the upper hand on the energy debate. Obama has already stated that he's willing to compromise to limited offshore drilling in good faith that it will lead to comprehensive alternative energy initiatives and lesson the dependency on foreign oil. The drill right here, right now is all rhetoric from McCain. I call McCain's bluff. The new energy proposal calls for increased taxes on Big Oil. What's McCain going to do? Will he keep his promise to the neocons that he will not increase taxes, or will he keep his promise that he's all for comprehensive alternative energy. I'm willing to bet that McCain will not bother to show if this goes up for a vote.

Anonymous   August 6th, 2008 11:31 am ET

Obama Supporter 2   August 6th, 2008 11:31 am ET

McCain has no long term solutions and you have to wonder why? Is it because he only cares about himself and his life expectancy is probably not that good – if he makes it 4 more years (especially if the same idiots who voted for Bush elect him as president) that would be
amazing. He doesn't need any long term solutions!!! Vote smart and for someone who has a long term vested interest in the US. He has young children and cares about the long term survival of the US and the planet!!! There is nothing wrong with being liked by alot of people – call it celebrity or whatever – IT'S WAY BETTER THAN THE REACTION BUSH GETS WHEN HE IS IN FRONT OF A CROWD...

Obama/Hilton? 08

What if?   August 6th, 2008 11:30 am ET

The original ad would have continued if money didn’t rear it’s anger from the mom‘s. His years of experience should have kept him from such a dumb stunt and to think some of you want him as our President.......

We are in serious trouble for more then four years if this is how our Commander and Chief will help us with the economy, gas and health care, ect…...This really helps the 98% of us that is struggling with our bills......This is really focusing on the voters real serious issues of today McCain.....another ad against Obama?.....not a dime in our pockets or gas to go to work on.............

In McCain's first celebrity ad did anyone notice the background music was "Back in Black" by AC DC? I've never heard anybody pick up on that and I think that is significant. Don't tell me that just happened to be coincidental.

jason, tx   August 6th, 2008 11:26 am ET

So what   August 6th, 2008 11:25 am ET

Lack of experience ? How much Washington experience did Bill Clinton have ? How much Washington experience did Ronald Reagan have ? Some of the best presidents have had 0 Washington experience... A good leader is a good leader.

David   August 6th, 2008 11:24 am ET

John McCain is the same "old" Republican with the same "old" Republican ideas that we have been living with for the last eight years under the Bush administration.

John has had 26 years in Washington to solve our energy challenges. Just look at all of the great programs that he put in place to prepare us for the 21st Century! Duh????

Republicans promise the world, deliver only to their friends, belittle everyone with an alternative, and hate new ideas. I guess that's why they are "conservatives". John check your tires, I think they are flat!

chas alabama   August 6th, 2008 11:24 am ET

McCain should check factcheck.org. to find out what Obamas tax situation is, oh wait, I forgot, McCain is to dumb to learn how to use the computer.

Keith   August 6th, 2008 11:24 am ET

Lordy Lordy, any respect I had for McCain, which wasn't a lot, has completely gone out the window. What else does he know what to do besides continually bashing his opponent? Issues John, issues. The people of the United States of America want to know how YOU are going to handle the economy, healthcare, education, rising gas prices, etc. Obama '08 all the way.

Ellie, Boyds MD   August 6th, 2008 11:24 am ET

Wow.... John McCain just doesn't GET IT huh?

I mean this OLD man is going to continue to play this juvenile "celeb" tactic KNOWING it's going to BACKFIRE. His own MOTHER called his Ad "STUPID". That says it all.

McCain is NO match for Paris Hilton, she commands the media AND will play McCain for the FOOL that he is.

John McCain will LOSE if he goes up against Paris Hilton and her family. OLD man better start getting a grip before it's too late.

TAL   August 6th, 2008 11:23 am ET

Now Paris needs to do another ad with Britney as her VP running mate. Shows the old white haired dude how dumb he is to bring them in the race.

Dave from Menifee   August 6th, 2008 11:23 am ET

What's his problem (McCain) is he saying that all first term Senators are celebrity? What is he basing Obama Celebrity status on? Let see He's a Senator from Illinois that's 47 years old don't sound like a celebrity to me sound like a politician to me. They need to stick to the facts and try to come up with way to help the people like how are we going to end our dependency on oil, the housing crisis , and two wars etc...

JOHN IN FL.

Just a question. Did you know that John McCain's son is in Iraq right now? Nope, because it's not well publicized.

Veterans already get 100% financing on home loans, their own hospitals, and free college educations. Shall I go on.

John McCain was right. He voted against the recent bill b/c it gave military personnel too much incentive to leave the military. We do need career soldiers, don't you think?

Wake up America. I am a Dem, but the party has been highjacked by the left once again. This is why we can't win an election. And we Hillary supporters told you: You cannot win with the most left-wing liberal nut jobs.

Billy J -Austin-Tx   August 6th, 2008 11:21 am ET

I think Paris can afford for her taxes to go up a little. I don't think the guys and gals working at burger king and walmart can. And I KNOW we can't continue to have a first rate economy and society with the deficit GW and the previous crooks in the senate and house have racked up for us. SO.............I wish it was Hillary, but I will have to settle for Obama. But NEVER a republican, until they get their act together. It's hard to believe they could be scummier than the current Dems but they truly have hit new lows in the last 15 years.

Christopher, Madison, WI   August 6th, 2008 11:19 am ET

Waste more of your donor's money just like you would the American taxpayers. This is exactly how Bush did his dirty work, and he says he's not Bush. At least McSame has figured out that if you can't draw huge crowds based on your level of voter's interest than just show up somewhere that already has a large crowd scheduled. Here's a clue for your righties...the reason President Obama won't do "town hall meetings" with the "wrinkly old white haired guy" is because he knows this would be the only way McSame could get press coverage. He can't drum up interest on his own so he figures he can just ride President Obama's coat tails. What a loser, and all those that support him are blind, deaf and dumb!
Jealous much Senator Old Man?

A news organization should not be giving free publicity to ads without doing a corresponding fact check. Otherwise it becomes nothing more than a propaganda organization no matter which side the ad is promoting.

The biggest disgrace in this election is the lack of objectivity demonstrated in the press in return for ratings.

Joe Kiloz   August 6th, 2008 11:17 am ET

The McCain camp has touched upon the crux of the issue. For the centrists, we can't escape the conclusion which is supported by various distinguished national polls: this race has an overwhelming Obama media preference/tilt and it is turning off more and more of us against Obama.
While the mediums continue their spite and low opinion of voters as basically morons while embracing the Obama agenda, Mr. Obama will be in political quicksand come November.
It's no wonder that a good number of us see more and deeper political scrutiny of the candidates in Entertainment Tonite than we see in the daily discourse.
Is it any coincidence that younger and uniformed voters participated heavily ? This being the target audience for the Media, the candidate of the future will likely be a Paris Hilton or Hanah Montana, just as McCain reminds us.

John, you are a joke and a desperate old man. Glad we have a good choice in Obama.

Will in Richmond, VA   August 6th, 2008 11:15 am ET

Has anyone pointed out the fact that being President of the United States makes a person one of the most famous people in the world anyway?

...And the world has been looking forward to this election for at least 5 years?

...And that the sufferings that we as Americans have felt have also been felt by the world at large, thereby increasing world attention and scrutiny of both candidates?

...And that most of these world citizens don't see anything new or different about McCain that would give them any reason to believe that US global policy would be any better than it has been recently?

... And that McCain is so incredibly and obviously jealous and irritated by all this that he can hardly contain himself?

... Has anyone noticed all this?

no to obama   August 6th, 2008 11:15 am ET

God help us all if Obama wins this fall. With his ideas that he should penalize successful corporations with windfall taxes and all the other taxes that need to be raised in order to cover the spending increases that he wants our economy will get even worse than what it is now. He will be another Carter if he gets in for the economy which is not what we need. Wake up everyone, this guy wants to do nothing more than increase government everywhere and not solve the real problems of Social Security and Medicare spending that is out control. He is not the answer to any of our economic problems.

McCain knows all about family.
He left one – the one he had with a disabled wife – to start a new one with a beer billionaire with a drug problem and whom he married for the money.
McLame knows about family all righty.

What if?   August 6th, 2008 11:15 am ET

At first I was mad about them using these children’s celebrities and then I found out that they parents (them) made contributions to help pay for these stupid and childish pranks that are coming out of the McCain camp........That anger has turned into happy disguise.

This is getting to be a habit...McCain don't know what is expectable until someone spanks him on the back of his hands, just ask these girls parents. The ad would have continued if money didn’t rear it’s anger from the mom‘s. His years of experience should have kept him from such a dumb stunt and to think some of you want him as our President.......

We are in serious trouble for more then four years if this is how our Commander and Chief will help us with the economy, gas and health care, ect…...This really helps the 98% of us that is struggling with our bills......This is really focusing on the voters real serious issues of today McCain.....another ad against Obama?.....not a dime in our pockets or gas to go to work on.............

Real help to the voters.......

STILL FOR HILL   August 6th, 2008 11:14 am ET

Shouldn't there be a headlines like this on today's ticker:

"Pelosi blocks energy bills and goes on vacation"

"Pelosi willing to screw the American and World economies to save the environment"

"Obama flip flops on drilling for oil due to public pressure"

"Obama and other Dems now willing to drill, but will throw Pelosi under the bus to get elected or re-elected"

Honestly, Pelosi and Obama must think the American people are stupid. They are willing to vacation and let the economy get worse so Obama will win the election. They know the only way Obama will get elected is if gas prices hit $5.00 a gallon.

We are not falling in line.

Moderate Dems were for Hillary, now for McCain

Mike, TX   August 6th, 2008 11:14 am ET

Obama's proposals will cost the US taxpayer over $1.5 trillion in the first 4 years of his administration. His supporters should actually read what he is promising.

This empty suit is the gift of Howard Dean. Please return the gift and vote for HRC in Denver.

AL   August 6th, 2008 11:14 am ET

Question 1.
Where was this "old white-haired man" when we saw the biggest government size increase in 30 years? If you're answer is Washington then you're can think for yourself.
Question 2.
What did the "old white-haired man" did or said about it? If you answer "nothing"... you're not one of those ignorants running McClueless' campaign.

I am an independant, and I dare the press to ask these questions, I will bet my last tank of gas, they would never be allowed to ride the "straight drill express" again.

Praetorian, Ft. Myers   August 6th, 2008 11:14 am ET

Obama's policies will hit us hard:
Increased taxes on individuals–will force small business owners and professionals to reduce payroll risk, they will not likely be adding jobs, and be most of the taxes would be added to the cost of goods and services and paid by consumers. The only other option–would be to profit to shareholders( and that wouldn't be a very wise business model).

Nowhere is there a plan to reduce the size and cost of government. It seems if we need to coninually increase taxes–perhaps the federal government should look at axing costs themselves!!! Everyone else has to live within a budget–why shouldn't the government? Obama has a new (unfunded and not cost cited) program for every agenda item. Wonder how much that will cost?

Mike, Boston   August 6th, 2008 11:14 am ET

Everyone please try this....it will definately help you decide who you should vote for!!!!

I would like everyone to google Sen. Obama's resume. Please copy and paste it to Word. Then replace his name with any general name, like Mike Johnson. Then replace the address and phone number with your own.

Now, leave everything as is on the resume, except remove "United States Senator" and its relevant information. (we are doing this because well lets face it he has only been in Congress for less than two years and has spent that time running for President).

Now comes the fun part. Go to your local city newspapers help wanted section. Locate ten "prestigous" jobs in your city such as CEO, or senior partner at a law firm.

Mail this resume to the appropriate address. Wait 30 days and tell me how many interviews you have been offered!!!!

This is great I did this....and guess how many responses I got to the resume!!!!!!! HAHAHA thats right people

ZERO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Do you need anymore proof that he is not qualified to be POTUS???????????

POPularity   August 6th, 2008 11:13 am ET

Obama ran on a created image of popularity and dazzle.

Oprah started it with him, Caroline jumped in... the MEDIA RAN WITH IT.

Hillary suffered for it and Obama got installed as nominee.

Hey GOP, enjoying how your contribution money is being spent?

Green screens, Paris, Brittany, tire gauges, sausage houses.

Hey I have an idea... maybe he can do a tour of all of the countries to ramp up more support in the GOP coalition of allies, you know... Kazakhstan, El salvador, Azerbaijan, Latvia etc.

Because the GOP are the experienced, conservative, prudent ones, they know how to make your life better.

Get your heads out of your respective sand please. You've been robbed of your money, house and freedom by the largest propaganda scare tactic, fueled by a corrupt gang of oil men that is the GOP.

That ship has sailed.

Peace.

Linda31   August 6th, 2008 11:12 am ET

I guess he is a celebrity of politics. I'm fine with that. Obama wants to tax only the wealthy, so the other 94% of us that aren't in that bracket are fine. I am still waiting to see what McCain HAS DONE in the 26 years in senate.

McCain’s Record of Vet Support, Just Another Buffalo Chip

John McCain’s campaign for president recently took him to the annual Sturgis biker rally where he spoke with veterans at the Buffalo Chip Campground. He could not have picked a more appropriate setting to offer up his wife, Cindy McCain, for a topless beauty contest and brag about his record of supporting veterans. He failed on both counts, however, to give these veterans the full McCain:

Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America has given John McCain a grade of D for his support of veterans:

Disabled Veterans of America gave him a 20% rating on support for veterans while giving Obama an 80% rating:

Per Vietnam Veterans of America John McCain has “voted against us” in 15 key votes:

John McCain is one of the few veterans running for office that VoteVets has refused to endorse:

To name just a few votes by John McCain against veterans:

McCain voted against an amendment providing $20 billion for VA medical facilities [5/4/06]

McCain voted against providing $430 million to the VA for outpatient care and treatment for veterans [4/26/06]

McCain voted against increasing VA funding by $1.5 billion by closing corporate loopholes [3/14/06]

McCain voted against increasing VA funding by $1.8 billion by ending abusive tax loopholes [3/10/04]

The man even voted against giving combat duty troops more time at home between extended tours.

John McCain had the gall to not only be rude, but to lie to a vet
about his record of endorsements from veteran groups and then had the nerve to refuse further questioning on the issue:

“I’ve been endorsed in every election by every veterans organization that do that, I’ve been supported by them, and I’ve received their highest awards from all of those organizations. So I guess they don’t know something you know.”

Later, during his town hall meeting, McCain admitted he does “not have a perfect voting record,” and then announced questions about veterans issues were off limits: “I will be glad to debate a lot of things, but not that one.”

Not only was John McCain a no show when it came to voting on the GI Bill he opposed, a bill which the American Legion and the Veterans of Foreign Wars fully supported, he now wants to limit veteran health care to only combat related injury in order to save money. Per retired Army General Robert Gard, McCain’s proposal to limit health care to only combat injuries would “shortchange those veterans who suffer from non-combat related conditions”. McCain is apparently unconcerned about the number of veterans this would affect, including the 15% of female combat veterans who suffer from military sexual trauma.

This comes as no surprise. When the VA was busted recently for
circulating a memo suggesting doctors lower their diagnosis on veterans suffering from PTSD in order to save money, John McCain replied: “it’s not important.”

Older veterans remember well how John McCain and John Kerry shut down all further investigation into remaining MIA/POW in order to open up trade with Vietnam over the protests of family members. They remember full well how these families were treated and talked to by McCain. They also remember how John McCain’s father-in-law immediately opened up a beer industry in Vietnam as soon as trade resumed.

jim, minneapolis   August 6th, 2008 11:11 am ET

don't buy this pathetic scare tactic. mccain is an absolute toolbag who will raise our taxes as well. only mccain will take our money and buy bombs. obama will reinvest our tax dollars into infrastructure, alternative energy, domestic programs. mccain is the worst choice for president. anyone can see that.

R.I.F.   August 6th, 2008 11:10 am ET

Will someone please point out that McCain was in "Wedding Crashers" on an episode of "24" and recently had a "made-for-tv" movie done about him last year? He also just opened up for Kid Rock at the biker convention. Correct me if I'm wrong but aren't McCain's celebrity credentials much great than Obama's?

It is a good thing Paris and her Mom spoke out against McCain.

Millions of Americans are voting based on their opinion and example.

That should help Obama gain some more of the idiot vote.

For the last year all I have heard from your butt kissing lips is how great the Black Messiah is and how he disavowed it if it caused any problems for him and how you at cnn said it wasn't his fault.All I see is article after article and Obama on your channel as I am going thrue the channels. I use to watch you to get my news . Not anymore. You people are so baised for Obama you make me want to PUKE.. I also like the touch of "BLACK IN AMERICA' thatyou play over and over and over trying to paint a picture of the poor mistreated black folk to get the sympathy vote for Obama.I guess cnn newscasters and their writers must have black maids and butlers and feel the pain of white guilt.. I can not afford no black maid or butler so I do not have any white guilt.

Jesse Ventura and The Goveninator have been good celebrities turned politicians so maybe the White House will be safe in the hands of an International Rock Star like Obama.

Just talked to fellow officier worker who supports McCain and showed him his record on voting for vets. After that he said me can't vote for Obama because of age. Noted to him several Presidents who where as old or younger, JFK, Clinton, Grant, Rosevelt. After that he said "well hes to unexprieranced". Lets face it He's Black, the rest is just excuses. This country is so sad. Time to wash our rednecks before we all talk and think like one.

Sad................ The fact is does ANYONE know what he is trying to say?

Repubs WORSHIP Reagan LOVE AHHNALD but now a man who is NOT a Celeb is being painted as one as a NEGATIVE? McCain needs to start talking about HIMSELF and why HE is so qualified and what HIS specific plans and policies are because all he looks like as of now is an Obama Watcher and Follower.

I am completely unimpressed with him. All he does is make daily Gaffs, mistakes and boorish remarks about women. How is he expecting people to vote for that?
