(CNN) - A Republican congressman and supporter of John McCain called a Spanish television ad from the Obama campaign "offensive and dishonest" Thursday, and said the Democratic nominee owes the Latino community an apology.
"It is offensive and dishonest for Barack Obama to lie about John McCain's record on immigration and years of support for the Hispanic community, when it was Barack Obama himself who voted for 'poison pill' amendments that killed the effort at immigration reform. Instead of making false ads with baseless attacks, Barack Obama should be apologizing to the Latino community," Rep. Lincoln Diaz-Balart said in statement released by the McCain campaign.
The Spanish-language ad, launched earlier this week, aims to connect McCain to Republicans who have staked out staunch anti-illegal immigration stances - including talk radio host Rush Limbaugh.
"They want us to forget the insults we've put up with, the intolerance," the television ad's narrator says in Spanish as an image of Limbaugh is quoted saying, "Mexicans are stupid and unqualified" and "Shut your mouth or get out."
"They made us feel marginalized in a country we love so much," the narrator continues. "John McCain and his Republican friends have two faces. One that says lies just to get our vote and another, even worse, that continues the failed policies of George Bush that put special interests ahead of working families."
But McCain has repeatedly disagreed with his party's base on the issue of immigration and was a chief sponsor of an immigration reform bill last year that deeply angered conservatives and nearly sunk his campaign for the presidency. The Arizona senator is also no favorite of Limbaugh, particularly for seeming to take a moderate stance on illegal immigration. But critics note McCain shifted his own policy on immigration as the Republican presidential primary race heated up, advocating a "security first" approach.
Limbaugh also took issue with the ad, telling the Politico it had taken his past statements - one of which is 15 years old - out of context and was an attempt at "race baiting."
"Obama is now stoking racism in the country," Limbaugh said. "Obama is a disgrace - he wants the public to think he is Mr. Nice Guy while his thugs are in Alaska looking for dirt on Palin and he runs race-baiting ads and lies about what he has done and what McCain has done."

Mr Limbaugh, you are the last person who should ever talk about race baiting.

GOP, if you can't say it to their face, in an election year, then don't make it policy.
GOP = lies.
GOP = rich.
GOP hides in oil.
John McCain said in April that he wouldn't vote for the bill he himself wrote.
Rush shut your mouth or get out!
It is not race baiting. It is fact. McCain caved with the republicans because they were aganist he immigration bill. McCain said he would not vote for his own immigration bill. I am confused. Is McCain for an immigration bill or not? Second, fact check already said that the republicans killed the immigration bill.
The TRUTH HURTS LIMBAUGH IS A RACIST PIG THAT SHOULD BE CENSORED !!!!!!!!
"Obama is now stoking racism in the country," Limbaugh said. "Obama is a disgrace — he wants the public to think he is Mr. Nice Guy while his thugs are in Alaska looking for dirt on Palin and he runs race-baiting ads and lies about what he has done and what McCain has done."
------------------
His thugs?!!! Pot meet kettle........Using the term "thugs" sounds a little racist to me.......
Obama the divider...
I re-read the transcript from Rush's show and it was right on and had nothing to do with race.
Basically, if you aren't contributing to our society and are leeching off our social programs, then you're not welcome.
when did Limbaugh get out of rehap ?
Careful fat drug addict, you are throwing out race when your rally cry is sexism.... Don't change your message!
A REUPUBLICAN CALLING OBAMA'S ADS "OFFENSIVE AND DISHONEST".
IF THAT WEREN'T SO PATHETIC IT WOULD BE HYSTERICALLY FUNNY!
Ahhh, Rash Limpblah accusing Obama of race baiting. It's official, we've seen it all.
This from the man that refers to Obama, a US Senator and nominee for President of the United States, as "little black man-child."
Obama thinks that if he preaches against "the white man". Spanish people will follow along blindly like his people do..
Rush Limbaugh calling someone else a "disgrace"? I can't think of anyone else besides him that more diserves being called that...... He can dish it out......
Rush must be off his meds again! Talk about stoking racism, nobody better at it than the ReThugs!
The fact remains.... many Republicans do feel this way.
I THOUGHT ROVE AND LIMBAUGH WERE ONE IN THE SAME.
DEFINITELY SEPARATED AT BIRTH! SPOOKY!
A taste of Mr. Limpballs own medicine.
You've got to be kidding me. Rush Limbaugh calling someone out for being dishonest and divisive? Aren't Americans sick of this kind of crap yet?
McCain 2008 needs to have a debate with McCain 2000 to decide what he believes in before he cries foul over this.
No way Barrack is going to apologize to those sleaze bags. They deserve a taste of their own medicine.
Rush is accusing someone of stoking racism?
What next, Michael Phelps bad-mouthing swimming?
Rush is a cry baby....
So much for your promise of running a clean campaign Obama. English, Spanish, Chinese – whatever the language you're just as dirty as any other politician.
I love republicans! They can dish it out, but can't take it when its thrown right back at them!! Me thinks they dost protest too much!!
McCain has a point...or at least, he would have had a point if he hadn't said he would now vote against his own immigration bill because he caved into the far-right-wing of his party. Now, it's perfectly appropriate to attack him for his stance(s) on immigration.
McLimbaugh is a joke!
Why is McCain Running for President?
Hear it straight from the horse's mouth in McCain's 2002 book, “Worth the Fighting For”:
"I didn't decide to run for president to start a national crusade for the political reforms I believed in or to run a campaign as if it were some grand act of patriotism. In truth, I wanted to be president because it had become my ambition to be president. I was sixty-two years old
when I made the decision and I thought it was my one shot at the prize."
McCain is a JOKE! Palin? Don't even get started!
*CNN, you've gotta post this!!!*
McCain redux has stated he would not vote for his own 2007 immigration bill today. The difference? Now he's trying to get conservative votes.
So how exactly is Obama's ad "lying"?
HaHaHa... You've been called out. Nothing can stop this movement.
Sorry but the truth is the truth! The Republicans have quite a nerve after the nasty, lying ads they continue to run! Thanks but no thanks to the Republicans!
LMAO! Limbaugh calling someone else a "disgrace"! Talk about that ol' kettle. Limbaugh and his buddy Rove have been destroying this country for 20+ years. They stand for everything the Founders abhorred, and mock the millions of Americans who have fought and died for this nation. That Limbaugh of all people accuses Obama of stirring up race issues and "digging up dirt" is just beyond laughable.
Rush, crawl back down your hole and shut up. You're pathetic.
David
Hey Dems, how's that holier than thou attitude now?
No apologies! We are taking no POWs. Not so nice when other people play hardball right?
Obama/Biden all the way!!!!
the ad is truthful.
republicans will tear latino families apart.
The ad is true. Limbaugh is cheerleading for McCain while spouting this insanity. Obama is winning Latinos 60-30. They know what is up.
Maybe McCain should denounce and reject this looney toon.
Limbaugh crying foul
what an ironic spectacle
Rush Limbaugh thinks the use of his own words in an ad are 'race-baiting'
Interesting perspective.
But critics note McCain shifted his own policy on immigration as the Republican presidential primary race heated up, advocating a "security first" approach.
SO it is offensive that obama runs an ad that basicly says that McCain is liar, but it is OK fro McCain to run false ads?
McCain changed his policy to fit the party line, to get votes, and he says he is a maverick,....not any more...he is an old worn out policitan of the worst kind.
As to the issue that Obama is using the "race" card. The man is bi-racial! For the high information voter, he is a person of color as well as Caucasian! For low information voters, he is half black and half white and for the Bubba’s he was a “swirl baby” before he grew up to be “uppity”(arrogant is another favorite word for uppity). Now, hopefully we are all on the same page as to the meaning of bi-racial,
So unless you are a little green alien from Mars(hopefully, a small voting bloc), the cries of racist are not justified.
Well, maybe one very fat, bald, old, drug addicted racist is the exception.
BE A MAN!, Limbaugh. Somebody, give some lipstick!
Well if the shoe fits wear it McCain. We all know that the republicans don't want the hispanics here.
Barack Obama is a socialist who wants to take from people making more than 200,000/year and give to those making less than 40,000. Additionally, he would raise the capital gains tax and the corperate income tax. With Obama in charge, be prepared for our economy to look like France's.
For Limbaugh to accuse someone of race-baiting and dishonesty is hilarious. What a hypocritical windbag.
I guess it is only O.K for Pigs like Rush and Sean Hannity to lie to
the idiots they pander to.
John McCain would sell the latino community (and the rest of us)
down the river to please his base and gain power...
If "stranger Danger" is kindergarten Sex ed. then McCain hates Latinos
Time to pay the piper Limbaugh, Words do matter...
BE A MAN!, Limbaugh. Somebody, give him some lipstick!
Come on, people. McCain doesn't even know the difference between Spain, Mexico, or any Latin American country. Go find his response to questions about whether he would be willing to meet with the President of Spain. (He proceeded to talk about Latin America.)
IF REPUBLICANS DON'T WANT REICH-WING RADIO SPEAKING FOR THEM, DENOUNCE THEM.
INSTEAD, YOU USE THEM WHEN ITS CONVENIENT AND WHINE WHEN IT ISNT.
TYPICAL GOP.
People should take a trip down to Miami to see what the folks on the street really think of Rep. Lincoln Diaz-Balart...he's another bush cronie...
limbaugh is a disgrace to my generationand poison to politics... he is a symbol of hate... obama is a symbol of hope... OBAMA '08
McCain-Bush-Limbaugh... all the same!
Wasn't it Rush Limbaugh that got fired from ESPN for remarks about Donovan McNab?
Gimme a break.
Inhale Limbaugh!
1- McCain is a Republican
2- Republicans ARE notoriously ANTI-IMIGRATION
There is NOTHING wrong with Obama's connection!
The add is very similar to those McCain released, which state that Obama will Raise taxes.. These adds fail to mention that he will only RAISE taxes for the RICH! And will LOWER taxes for ordinary families-80% of us!
Rush did say that Mexicans are stupid. Dont try to lie now.
Limbaugh calling anyone else a disgrace is laughable.. This guy is one of the chief reason our country is so divided today and the reason for all of the labels.
Maybe if McCain would have stuck behind his own bill instead of letting his party push him around, then maybe this ad might not be appropriate.
These GOP hosts spew their vitriol on the air every single day, 24 hours a day...and the GOP party has ZERO problem reaping the benefits of the hatred these talking heads instill in people...yet they cry foul when their words are plastered on TV! It's crazy.
John McCain said he wouldn't even support his own immigration bill...so who is lying now?
Rush is a disgusting pig and he will pay the price for his actions in hell one day. In the meantime, he needs to stfu. Don't get mad at Obama for calling you out...be mad yourself for saying such racist and hateful things!
Ok – all Latinos listen up – If you still want Hillary you can print her name on your electiion ballot as a write-in candidate and it will count – that's the law. Just print HILLARY CLINTON
Obama has done NOTHING for the Lations even though he blows his horn as if the has done something for every minority and ethnic group in the world. That's one of the things about him – he has a knack for ingratiating himself to everyone and it's phony.
look who's talking about racism, limbaugh your the worst inmigrant enemy in this world
Oh did Rush get ofended by his own words? wow I love it Obama rocks man he's got all the republicans wound up on defense this is so refreshing to see! Keep hitting them Obama!
Este latino aqui te soporta su presidencia a la Casa Blanca si se puede!!
Limbaugh is a moron. I don't even have to listen to the ad. If it's about Limbaugh, it's probably worse.
Obama/Biden 08
Awwww, did wittle Rush get his wittle feewings hurt? Boo-friggin-hoo.
What he said before is now coming back to haunt him.
Congressman Lincoln Diaz-Balart should SHUT UP! Down here in Miami-Dade they are airing a ad on tv that shows his opponent as a very negative candidate. Well my question to Diaz-Balart is to look at the way he has ignored his own community. Not EVERYONE is proud of his political career. He should be telling the people on the spanish am radio station that they should apologize to Barack Obama. They have so many people calling in to the radio and saying thinkgs about Obama that is not correct. People down here believe that he is a muslim and kids in my sons' school believes this and they also thought that Hillary Clinton would remove the FCAT from the public school system. This is a democrate that will NOT vote for him. I hope that Joe Garcia wins this time. PLEASE LORD HEAR MY PRAYERS!!!
what goes around comes around....getting a taste of their own medicine....can dish it out, but cant take it....wha wha wha I want my mommie!
I personally don't mind if Barack Obama's attacks on John McCain are negative as long as they are factual.
Most of John McCain's ads are offensive, negative lies, but Americans seem to hold Barack Obama to a much higher standard than McCain and Palin.
My advice, is for Obama to stick to how he's going to make our lives better, and then compare his policy positions to that of his opponents.
Be on the offensive yes, but don't lower yourself to McCain's gutter politics.
Let's listen to Rush. He is pretty credible.
Maybe the book "Rush Limbaugh is a Big Fat Idiot" should add in McSames name as well. Republicans looking to distract everyone from their own incompetence.
rush spews hate. this is nothing new.
Hey, Mr. Limbaugh, are you scared?
Limbaugh is one of the reasons I strongly believe in abortion.
Limbaugh calling someone a racist? Talk about the pot calling the kettle black... And last time I checked no Obama affiliates have boarded a plane to Alaska. Keep grasping for those straws Limbaugh & McCain
Obama up in the Gallup Daily by 4 points.
As for this Ad, McCain, you live by the sward you die by the sward.
while his thugs are in Alaska looking for dirt on Palin and he runs race-baiting ads and lies about what he has done and what McCain has done."
******************************************************************************* I guess it works best for them if they keep repeating this falsehood about Obama having people in Alaska, that way the Residents of Alaska will be a little confused at who the thugs are actually working for. The "thugs" are the plane load of lawyers that the McCain campaign and the RNC sent to finish the job of vetting Sarah Palin. The rest of the 'thugs' are their to intimidate any press that are trying to find out who Sarah Palin really is and to pit neighbor against neighbor as they put Big City tactics into Stonewalling the investigation that Sarah Palin had promised to remain transparant and to cooporate fully with.
....unfortunately the media pushes white, black....we do not hear minority issues....the world is not one color....it is the 10 finger human being and we are all colors. Rush Limbaugh hides behind his veiled radio show of racism.
Just today Limbaugh referred to Obama as "Mr. Community Activist". Now who is race baiting.
As for the ad, it is on target with the McCain's slate as defined at the Republican Convention. He has flipped to a more conservative position on immigration. Just wait until the debates. You'll see.
Obama is a liar. I thought he was supposed to be above all this. Guess not.
Well Senator Obama, you know you are on the right track when Rush Limbaugh comments on the daily politics and direct his comments at your campaign.
Keep turning up the heat on the Republicans!
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Come on CNN, next post.
Obama/Biden 08
It's simple. Nothing in that ad is false. The Republicans led bu Rush L. are against immigration reform. McCain proposed reform when he thought it will poll well. His party pushed back and he voted AGAINST the very same reform he initiated, meaning he went back to his party's position. He, at the end of the day, agreed with his party's position. The immigration reformist image is a facade. It's like the bridge to nowhere claim. When the facts are considered, he voted against immigration reform.
Why should McCain be the only one to stretch the truth?
That's what I'm talking about! It's getting hot in here! Get'em O! Looks like the Clintons are on board after all. See the Republicans thought O and his team were a bunch of intellectual panzies, but I think NOT!
Now you want to run and cry.
"Don't let your mouth right a check your behind can't cash"
Obama/Biden 08!
So, if you have someone who's been around since the 80's, you'd think they'd understand his record of bucking the party line on immigration. This is absurd. John McCain HATES republicans, anyone that's studied politics for more than two years knows that he can't stand them. I wonder if any of you remember the heated things he said about Bush in 2000. I wonder if any of you know his stem cell research and abortion views, THEY ARE DIFFERENT THAN REPUBLICANS. If this election is about issues, then Americans need to start doing their homework. McCain has tons of INDEPENDENT history. Obama has voted with his party 96% of the time and doesn't even know the meaning of the word "centrism."
Hey Joe in NJ, wasn't it McCAIN who promised to run a clean campaign? Look who the REAL hypocrite is!!!
I support Obama but don't agree with this ad. Please don't stoop to McCains level
..........but it is true.
Go OBAMA!!!
So this is the new politics, eh? And trying to tie your opponent to someone that is disliked was supposed to be off pudding. So lets talk about Obama's friends Ayers, Wright, Fleger.
Okay, so now Obama is lying in yet another ad. McCain has been accused of lying in his ads. They are both politicians, that is what they do. Where are the comments calling Obama's tactics vile and sleazy? He isn't any better than McCain and in fact trying to cause a race issue with the Latino community is a disgrace. Thankfully, Latinos are smarter than Obama gives them credit for and they have more conservative values than he does, so hopefully, they will vote McCain.
Spare me the false outrage. If you can't take it, don't start it in the first place.
...Limbaugh also took issue with the ad, telling the Politico it had taken his past statements — one of which is 15 years old — out of context and was an attempt at "race baiting."
Did he apology for that statement he made 15 years ago?
***But critics note McCain shifted his own policy on immigration as the Republican presidential primary race heated up***
When its time to do the right thing, McCain did the WRONG THING!!!
=====are americans that stupid to listen to people like Rush?==
Wear blue for Obama on Tuesday Sept. 30.
Obama is showing his true colors again ... but someone needs to tell him that National Politics is different than Chicago politics! These lies won't go unnoticed!
I'm voting for Obama very enthusiastically. I'm glad he's being tough on the issues, especially where the economy is concerned. However, I do hope he pulls the Limbaugh ad. Just as I hated that horrible McCain ad that attempted to make Obama appear to be some kind of pervert interested in teaching age-inappropriate sex education to Kindergarten children, I don't like trying to paint McCain as something he's not. It's not necessary. I say let him dig his own hole. His lack of interest in and knowledge of the economy along with his disastrous VP pick should be enough to accomplish that. No need to distort anything. Keep hitting him hard on the economy and the war. Be relentless. And use nothing but the facts to do it.
"Obama is now stoking racism in the country," Limbaugh said. "Obama is a disgrace — he wants the public to think he is Mr. Nice Guy while his thugs are in Alaska looking for dirt on Palin and he runs race-baiting ads and lies about what he has done and what McCain has done."
OH PLEASE STOP THE WHINING!
AS DISGRACEFUL, DISRESPECTFUL, AND DISTASTEFUL WITH THE ADS THE MCLAME PEOPLE ARE RUNNING! ARE YOU KIDDING ME???
NO ONE HAS TO LOOK FOR DIRT ON PALIN...THE MEDIA BRINGS IT TO US EVERY MINUTE OF THE DAY! LOL
LIMBAUGH WHAT IS THE DEFINITION OF A LIE??? APPRAENTLY YOU DON'T KNOW THE ANSWER...
CONSISTENTLY DISGUSTED...
HAHAHA....Rush is such a hypocrit.
Isn't Limbaugh that guy who has the word "IDIOT" tattooed on his forehead?
. . . yep, that's him.
OH how desperate are they to use Limbaugh!!!! LOL...too funny.
Well, the truth hurts doesn't it McCain. You were once a an immigration reformer but caved to the right-wing who want border fences and deportations first. Sorry but the lies are McCains..not Obamas.
Is this is the new politics Barry, lets see ur disciples defend you in 5,4,3,2 and 1.
So whats the problem? Limbaugh is a P.O.S. like McCain. They both swim in the toilet bowl called the republican party. I'd say they have plenty in common.
Good! it's about time that someone called this racist/homophobe out for what he is. Isn' funny that each and everyday CNN carries the Repubs. talking points for them?
see how it feels McCain???? those are your cronies. A clear link can be seen and don't you do the same thing last week?
My favorite Image at the Republican Convention was the big sign that read "Build The Fence Now! Build the Fence Now!"
God help the latinos that support Limbaugh and O'Reilly!
Si Se Puede en 08!
(Yes We Can in 08!)
Tasting the GOP medicine is bitter isn't it? This ad is tame compared to the garbage the McCain camp is producing.
A taste of your own medicine Republicans.
Most Republicans I know are racist and the truth hurts. They would like to see all immigrants (non-white) sent back to their home country.
Finally the Obama campaign is hitting back.
Go Obama / Biden '08...
Honesty and Truth have little place in the Obamessiah's campaign. They need window dressing and distractions for him to stand a chance. No doubt all of his disciples will be filling this board with endless excuses for a man who can do no wrong...3 2 1
It is funny to me that the republicans make comments and policy decisions, but then when they get called out for them, they say that the comments are "offensive". Has anyone seen some of the ads that have been run against Obama? The next Moses? Brittney Spears and Paris Hilton? Taxes on Americans? Wow, just more smear and fear. I guess they don't like to be told how foolish they really are.
Its about time Obama is hitting back. The truth hurts doesnt it McCain? The ad should have also mention that hate monger Lou Dobbs and all of his hurtfull and hateful comments about immigrants.
Down with Lou Dobbs and Rush Limbaugh!!!! They are racists and along with McCain/Palin will hurt the Latino Community.
Oh please, as if Limbaugh has the audacity to accuse anyone of racism. Pot say hey to Kettle! Limbaugh, button it up and go back to your racist radio show.
Mr. Limbaugh is a disgrace to America and the GOP hide behind his insults. They can't have it both ways!
McCain has changed his position on immigration completely, who does not remember his debate with Mit Romney about immigration. Obama is reporting that position and correctly. No how, no way, no McSame and no Palin
The mere pick of Palin cemented that fact that McCain of old is not the same clueless McCain today.
McCain is now so far to the right that he s about to fall off the right edge of the see-saw.
WOW WHAT HYPOCRITE'S, MY GOD!!!! GET OUTTA HERE!!!! GO INTO HIDING YOU DIRTY REPUBLICANS, MY GOD I CANNOT WAIT UNTIL NOVEMBER.
YOU KNOW WHY DON'T DEMOCRATS HAVE ANYONE LIKE LIMBUTHEAD AND HANNITY....
Please. John McCain abandoned the very bill that he wrote to win the Republican nomination b/c it wasn't popular within his party.
And Limbaugh can shove it. He sits on his fat keaster all day running his mouth. As usual, Obmama quotes these people in the exact context and they say, "That's unfair!" The truth hurts and this is the first step to taking down the likes of Limbaugh and his ilk.
Obama/Biden 2008/2012.
jake tapper at ABC news already wrote a scathing critique of this ad. of course, we wouldn't expect CNN to do the same.
Go see Tapper's breakdown of this ridiculous ad.
I live in Arizona – the Republican Party here is dominated by racists and xenophobes. To steal an old joke – an Hispanic voting Republican is like a chicken voting for Colonel Sanders.
Truth hurts, American people, if you think McCain/Palin will fight for you–you better wake up from slumber.
obama is playing fire with fire and the republicans can't stand the heat from there own games. it was all fine and dandy as long as it was mccain doing the dirty ads. this proves obama has a wonderful temperment ,thinks before he leaps ,makes sound judgement decisions...... but don't cross him because he is tough as nails mccain!
What a shock, more lies from the campaign trail. Disgusting.
well all the white people around me have a few choice names they use when they refer to any black person. they think im one of them then i set them straight with all there ignorance. fact is obama isnt going to get much of the vote from whites. i dont care if mccain admits he is satan. the white folks in the south will not under any condition vote for a black man! its that simple. i live here i see it i was raised in it and its true!
What does changing your stance mean....I think flip flopping or that is what has been accused of in Obama's stance on off shore drilling. I think it is listening to people and encouraging popular vote. Democracy...what a concept. Of course McCain tightened his stance on the Hispanic immigration. He has to keep the image up for his little racist republican friends that this beautiful country is plagued with.
like Rush Limbaugh.should be talking after the comment he made-idiot.
For those who still can't grasp the concept of white privilege, or who are constantly looking for some easy-to-understand examples of it, perhaps this list will help.
White privilege is when you can claim that being mayor of a town smaller than most medium-sized colleges, and then Governor of a state with about the same number of people as the lower fifth of the island of Manhattan, makes you ready to potentially be president, and people don't all piss on themselves with laughter, while being a black U.S. Senator, two-term state Senator, and constitutional law scholar, means you're "untested."
White privilege is being able to say that you support the words "under God" in the pledge of allegiance because "if it was good enough for the founding fathers, it's good enough for me," and not be immediately disqualified from holding office–since, after all, the pledge was written in the late 1800s and the "under God" part wasn't added until the 1950s–while believing that reading accused criminals and terrorists their rights (because, ya know, the Constitution, which you used to teach at a prestigious law school requires it), is a dangerous and silly idea only supported by mushy liberals.
White privilege is being able to be a gun enthusiast and not make people immediately scared of you.
More to come...
Go Barack!
Obama said he was not going to be this kind of politician. But here he is telling bigger lies than McCain. Obama is proving he is a candidate who will do or say anything to get elected.
Well, there it is!
VOTE FOR LIMBAUGH< THE REAL STRAIGHT TALKER
Rush Limbaugh calling anybody a "disgrace" has to be the funniest line so far I've heard in this election year. This coming from somebody who once touted "Obama the Magic Negro"!
Yeah Baby! About time Obama goes after the pulpit and lightning rod of the Republican "Base".
Ohh, no, no...McCain. You can't have it both ways now. Your "Base" has made it clear how they feel. Limbaugh is the heart of soul (unfortunately) of the GOP base...and those hateful words indeed tell it like it is.
He had to get dirty in order to defend himself against lying McCain and the Repubs. He tried his best to stay clean, however the last straw was when McCain accused him of teaching pre-k's SEX EDUCATION!
Anyone in their right mind has to fight back!
OBAMA/BIDEN '08
McCain flip-flopped on the subject of immigration for political reasons–his old views were damaging his chances of winning his party's nomination.
If McCain didn't want Obama criticizing him on his new (mainstream Republican) immigration stance, he should have stuck to his guns, instead of just talked about sticking to his guns.
The article should also state that Limbaugh's remarks were taken way out of context. He was describing the Mexican government's views towards its citizens. he was not calling them stupid. Typical Democrat lies and deceit. Sounds like a desparate party!
Does Limbaugh speak for a broad swath of the republican party? YES HE DOES. That makes him a speaker for the party of McCain.
nice try obama. The whole country know that McCain is not an extreme right wing conservative and even your own party says the whole bush 3rd term isnt sticking as its not true.
and apprently the Obama campaign thinks that paying higher taxes is patriotic. so dont go into the armed service and serve your country, just work hard and give lots of money to the government so we can waste it for you !!!!!
I think people need to show how the Republican Party feels about all the issues. McCain, is not the McCain of old. He has shifted on many of his old positions. I don’t think this is wrong. Just ask McCain today about his views, and see where he stands. Plus, you can’t have it both ways, you can’t say Limbaugh is right 90% of the time when he is downing Democrats, and then say he is wrong when his words don’t look good for you politically. So, is Limbaugh commentary creditable to the Republican Candidate, or not?
If it causes stir it must be because it is hitting a nail...
Why is it ok for McCain to run any kind of ad be it true or a lie, majority of lies, but when Obama runs one or says anything that points out McSame being just that, he needs to apologize to someone. Mr. Balart, anytime you want to be an on air surrogate for your boy McCopy, just step up to the Mic.
Unless you have more evidence than was put in this article, Shut UP! No one has time for this foolishness. McCain lies everytime he opens his mouth. So either get in the game on the issues, or join Fiorina. You should apologize for supporting such a shallow candidate.
Once again, Obama is using lies to promote fear and emotion. There is no other way to spin an obvious deception like this.
I guess this is easier than just talking about why he has no specific positions or opinions on so many vital issues. It is like putty in a suit.
Hopefully people are starting to see past the hype and smoke screens of baseless emotion.
Limbaugh you are nothing but a bag of wind who pays for your input anyway.?
But McCain has repeatedly disagreed with his party's base on the issue of immigration and was a chief sponsor of an immigration reform bill last year that deeply angered conservatives and nearly sunk his presidency. --–
Try hard as you might MCNN (McCain News Network) you haven't gotten him elected yet.
I SWEAR THESE IDIOTS ALWAYS THINK SOMEBODY OWES AN APOLOGY FOR EVERYTHING!
GET OVER IT ALREADY! YOU'RE GOING TO LOSE!!!
OBAMA / BIDEN '08 AND BEYOND!
Obam's Chicago style mafia politics at work again....
Sounds like O is reverting back to the old Chicago POLITIC. LIES AND MORE LIES. OH WELL thats what Im talking about CHANGE.
No different then Limbaugh quoting Rev Write. The mechanism used to construct the ad (Rush Limbaugh does not speak for McCain although he pulls for McCain and McCain has not distanced himself from Rush) may be a bit of a streach, but the bottom line is that the underlying message being communicated is right on target and resonates with reality. The ad is simply a quick way to reminds folks what they already know.
who cares what Limbaugh thinks. I listen to him just for laughs
The Pill Popper will blow a gasket on this one. Ditto Heads are fools anyway.
By the way, the republican spanish congressman should sit down with McCain and teach him the difference between Latin America and Spain and their location and relations to the United States. Seems to me that he has a problem knowing who our enemies and allies are.
ummm... McCain may have once been in favor of better immigration reform, but then he VOTED AGAINST HIS OWN BILL
ha, ha, ha, add limbaugh to the whiners now.
"Obama is now stoking racism in the country," Limbaugh said.
Wait, Limbaugh said "Mexicans are stupid and unqualified", Obama quotes him, and now Limbaugh is saying Obama is the racist. Wow, just wow.
he will not win
He said he was running a clean contest prior to the last couple of weeks. After MCcain was dirty. He THEN said he was taking the gloves off.
He was not dirty before. He is simply fighting back as of late.
Limbaugh has openly expressed hatred for the Spanish and Mexican citizens. THIS AD IS THE MOST HONEST OF ALL!
VOTE OBAMA...HE'S OUR ONLY HOPE!
I am surprised that Limbaugh actual have the intelligence to figure out someone was insulting him.
Remember when McCain was asked to apologize for the Paris Hilton ad, he laughed and said everyone should get a sense of humor. Well, we have one now.
Obama/Biden 08
Wow. I listened to Rush a little bit this morning. The Master of Quoting out of Context himself was blasting this add for quoting him out of context on his comments about "stupid Mexicans." The hypocrisy of right wing pundits is without end...
WOrds matter and truth hurts, doesn't it?
Obama is doing this because he knows he's lost the White House and as Latin American thats low blow even for this black man
John McCain has flipped-flopped on immigration the same way he has done about his views on evangelicals, the Confederate flag, Bush's tax cuts, the enviromental policy, etc etc. Yes, once upon a time he use to buck his party on immigration. Now, however he is talking about border security and fences just like Limbaugh and Lou Dobbs. This group should take their complaints to Senator McCain rather than Senator Obama for calling him to account.
MORE DIVERSIONS FROM THE REPUGNANTS
I know these ticker items are written in a hurry, but could you at least try to get them right? McCain's immigration stance nearly SANK his CANDIDACY, not SUNK his PRESIDENCY. Maybe the article itself should have been in Spanish...
Carma is amazing isn't it!
Rush is a big cry baby! I have no respect for someone who dishes it out on a daily basis and cries foul the first time someone gives it back.
Todays neo-nut republican party is a complete disgrace and should take a long hard look in the mirror!
The McCain express is crumbling.
All those lies and distractions will be his downfall, because americans remember well previous repub campains, full of smear but nothing on real solutions.
He is stealing Obamas playbook now, because in experience, judgemnent and vision he can;t hold water to Obama.
Well Johnny Boy, you're surely are digging your own grave and Sarah Palin is just your gimmick toy, to confuse americans.
Well we all can see what McCain is up to now.
He would be a bad president and gets us furhter down.
The world is waiting for Obama and real changes, not for McCains gimmicks and empty speeches.
Obama / Biden 08
I am absolutely glad that Senator Obama is using Rush Limp's words against him as Rush Limp seem to do all the time against Obama, Clinton and any other democrat out there. BTW, how is it stoking racism to restate something that a individual himself has stated repeatedly? Now I hope that he goes after that other individual Sean Hampster.
Great one BaRRRRRRRRRACK .....
OOOOoooohhhhh
they HATE it when you throw their words back at them...
i mean... the NERVE of you to remember what they said and did...
This is "new politics"? Shame on you Obama campaign! And the fact that Obama supporters are cheering this on shows that they themselves are just as much hypocrites as they accuse the Republicans of being.
Good job, Obama! You keeping doing what you are doing. Right-wing extremist Republicans like Limbaugh need a taste of their own hate-filled and angry medicine. I approve of the ad because I think McCain has shifted his position on immigration reform and on a host of other issues just to win-over the extreme right-wing base of his party. When you sell your political soul to the political devil, you will always get burned.
Hit them hard Mr. Obama they can dish so they should take the medicine and chew it.
Obama/Biden 08,12
You do not see all the Obama backers talking about how Obama is a new type of guy who will not use dirty trick. They use to say that a lot. Now the talking point is "well they do it so good for him doing it." Y'all should know this one.....Spare me the fake godie goodie mess. Obama is nothing about change. He is like them all. The only difference is his lack of experience to do the job in the White House.
I agree with JoelWhy. McCain had a leg to stand on until he admitted he wouldn't vote for his own bill if it came up again.
How do you like 'em apples, Republicans? Good to see the Obama campaign giving them a taste of their own medicine
I love democrats: complain about "sleazy, deceptive" ads then put them out themselves!!!
Barack is looking more and more presidential everyday. I love it and I love the fact that Dems will not be distracted by shiny metal object anymore.
Obama/Biden 08
To The White House and Beyond.
Rush has always been a staunch supporter of all minorities! Where is this all coming from? Oh and I have a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you too....
It seems the McCain campaign can't handle the truth–they don't speak it from their own lips, and they don't like to hear it from anybody else.
As a Democrat and Latina I was insulted by Obamas ad.
The fact that he feels he can lie to us and use us in such a manner is dishonorable.
Latinos were not amused by his pandering and will be thinking twice about whether we should vote Democrat or not.
The only democrat that we trusted was Senator Clinton, and we were trying to embrace Obama but his latest ad was an insult to the intelligence of Latinos everywhere.
LIMBAUGH IS A RACIST, A HOMOPHOBE, AND A TOTAL WHACK-JOB.
ALL THE QUALIFICATIONS TO BE A GOOD REPUBLICAN'T!
The Democratic party is a disgrace in their lies and deceit.
They should be putting out another ad apoligizing to all of us.
I am so angary right now! BO is going Down , Down, Down into his BLACK hole of lies and deceit. Many of us are not going to put up with this racist person, yes racist, who is using his color to fool the non white residents of this country.
Get the work out to everyyone, and ask them to vote straight REPULICAN. Lets hit them where it is going t to hurt.
McCain's disagreement with his party's base "nearly sunk his presidency???"
Excuse me, but when exactly was McCain president?
And while he was at it, Limbaugh also repeated the completely debunked story about Obama sending some sort of shadowy "agents" to Alaska. Never happened and everyone knows it.
Limbaugh IS a big bag of republican wind.. has been!!!
his opinions have no relevance to anyone
Do you hear that????
It's the Pot calling, if ya know what I mean.
A rather dumb move on Obama's part. McCain was the main signer of the bill.
Let's get fact check in here to clear things up for Obama. Every time that I have seen one of those articles about McCain, it is proved false. Whenever I see one for Obama it is proved true. Obama doesn't run a sleazy campaign, that's the GOP's specialty.
Rush is a fat, stupid, idiot.
If you have a child, and he/she turns fifteen, are they not yours?
Same thing goes for WORDS.
Stupid today, Stupid tomorrow.
Limbaugh, Lou D and other media raciats propaganda pushers, it's pay back time.
It must be the truth. Slow Limpbo doesn't like it. Keep them coming Obama.
Obama/Biden 08/12
Republicans want to play dirty....let's play!!!!!
OBAMA/BIDEN 08
McCain-Palin are the biggest liars....
At least McCain has a record that proves that Obama is just making this up. Obama has no record to defend himself with.
I'm sorry, but Obama is right on this. McCain even said he wouldn't vote for his own immigration bill. The facts are Obama's side in this case!
Another vote missed. I'm sure Rush was firmly in the Obama camp until this incident......................Sarcasm.
McCain was for his immigration bill before he was against it. Think about that – is that change? More like pandering to the right.
We all know that Limbaugh is full of hate.
He has no way to turn.
Why should Obama apologize .
WHO THE HELL IS Limbaugh?
Barack: I don't know how to break it to you but, Rush isn't running for anything. And even if he were, McCain disagreed with him on this issue.
Well it is anybody's guess where McCain will be on any issue at any one time - he's blowing in the wind - kind of sounds like snoring to me.
Can't Limbaugh say one good thing about anybody not conservative? Whether he likes Obama's views shouldn't he be proud to be in a America with a Black Presidential candidate.
I don't really approve of Obama spreading falsehoods in his ads-if that's what happened here-but how is this any different from what McCain's done? His ads distorting the legislation Obama worked on to teach young kids how to protect themselves from pedophiles, his false claims about Obama's tax plans-these are outright lies. McCain camp, if you can't take it, don't dish it out.
Limbaugh also took issue with the ad, telling the Politico it had taken his past statements — one of which is 15 years old.
So? People that committed murder 15 years ago are still in prison today!
hey, Joe in NJ, looks like Rush is getting some of his own medicine, and not sending the maid out for it. It's about time!
Comidian Limbaugh is a fat liar. He is the racist and he proves by his mere words. Go take a pill Rush.
Rush needs some lipstick.
I very ashamed of my son. Don't mind his posts, I dropped on his head when he was little. (several times).
The sword of words cuts and cuts. Now that we have ways of "remembering" what has been said, and can replay it over and over, the whole world will see the sword that has been drawn.
It's a fair playing field when both adversaries have the same sword.
McCain changed his stance and not because of his "newly informed position." He changed his stance so he could get nominated.
Live by the sword – die by the sword.
I can't wait to see the popular vote results – regardless of the electorial college, OB08
this shows that mccain and republicians has missed it already by trying to say that Obama is anti-latino. Obama, just continue your goods works. we are solidly behind you. Mccain starts missing it when he says that the fundamental of this economy is strong when people are losing their housing, losing their jobs, the rich are getting richer and the poor are getting poorer. Mccain missed it also by his definition of a rich man and belittling community organising work.
Republicans always cry when the tables are turned. Is there a law that says republicans can lie all they want and not be held accountable?
OBAMA 08
Limbaugh is a hipocrit and he is a racist! He has his nerve to talk about Obama. Obama is only doing what he needs to do to win. Playing nice all the time like he has is not working. So he has go get tough and Limbaugh is just mad someone has beat him at his own game.
Barack the Vote!
Obama/Biden 08
way to go obama. race baiting is exactly what this is. this is about the lowest anyone's gone since the daisy ad, but even that one wasn't geared at inciting a race war. It's one thing to play to hispanic immigrants but to flat out lie to them and on top of it start calling all republicans racist because of one or 2 of them being vocal about their opinions is insane. I hope this becomes a bigger story because this would not go over well with the average person.
Rush needs some lipstick.
I very ashamed of my son. Don't mind his posts, I dropped on his head when he was little–several times.
"nearly sunk his presidency"?? What presidency? He has never been president, although he is sinking–slowly in the west, and Sarah is going down with him. Both of them are completely incoherent when they try to speak about the economy. Sarah's talk about OPM sounds like a tenth-grader faking her homework. Can she see Wall Street, too, from her house in Alaska?
JOE IN NJ:
It was McCain who said he was running a "clean" campaign. The republicans like to dish dirt but cry when it is thrown back at them.
Still again............MORE WHINNING FROM THE OLD GEEZER.
DESTORTION
DESTORTION
DESTORTION
DESTORTION.................FROM THE REAL ISSUES.
JOHN MCBUSH IS KING OF LIES AND DISTORTION.
SOMEBODY PLEASE PUT THIS OLD GEEZER DOWN FOR HIS AFTERNOON NAP.
Whoa. A Democrat with guts.
Time to get my affairs in order, the world is about to end..
Obama/Biden 08! September 18th, 2008 2:01 pm ET
I love republicans! They can dish it out, but can't take it when its thrown right back at them!! Me thinks they dost protest too much!!
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
I guess you have not looked at other threads. Dems/Libs are the same way. If you can not see that then you do not want to see it.
Rush needs some lipstick.
I very ashamed of my son. Don't mind his posts, I dropped on his head when he was little–several times.
Give me a break!!! Those are your own words remember rush??
Dish it .....take it!!!
To Joe in NJ,
You want to talk clean, what about the ad that says Barack wants to teach s33 education to kids. Is that what you mean by clean?
Go talk to McDirty, he's an authority on clean campaigns–NOT.
Obama/Biden 08
Thank god Obama is finally giving those Rebubs a taste of their own bile!
Some Ads, such as this one on Immigration, are actually true. Most Republicans opposed the reform bill– no lie there. Sometimes it is, what it is.
Obama lies about many other things; probably thought he could 'slip this one in' also.
Limbaugh playing the victim is the funniest thing I have heard about this week. He trashes Obama daily, but when his words are used against him he gets his panties in a bunch.
You notice how he calls Obama's people "thugs". Gee, I wonder what he meant by that.
Limbaugh is trash! You better update your prescription Rush. Doctors and Pharmacists in the area beware, Rush needs new meds!
Limbaugh was crying like a little schoolgirl today. The tide is turning and he is not going to win this one.
I can't believe how you can report on a story and not even tell the truth. Rush was talking about THE MEXICAN GOVERNMENT'S POLICIES. Yes, i know you won't believe it, but those are the policies of the Mexican government. Rush was saying that to make a point. All you kool-aid sucking people should take a second and stop being spoon fed. Shame on you CNN for not accurately reporting this. Check your data before you print it.
Amen!!!!
Just curious but why is it Ok for them to say that Obama wanted to teach sex ed to children as old as 5 but they find this reprehensible???? I may not agree with the ad that Obama put out there, but glad that he is starting to fight back and do what they've been doing all along!
at first i was like, "tsk. tsk. Obama campaign," but as i kept reading the truth came out. the point is, McCain is with them now. Can he really say, "Well, I use to not feel this way"? I don't think so.
good luck with that, rush...you doping windbag.
McCain changed his positon to appeal to his party's base so that he could continue his candidacy. Plain and simple. If he had stuck to his guns, he wouldn't have this problem. But he put himself before the country! He picked Palin to shore up his base and he kowtowed to the party on immigration and a host of other issues to ensure their support. Who knows how he really feels about anything because he goes with the Republican flow.
We all know that comedian Rush Limbaugh is the Hispanic community's closest amigo. How this hateful man has remained on the radio all these years is beside me.
As for McSame, he cannot have it both ways. That's what Obama is calling him on.
Barack is giving 'em the truth, and they obviously feel as though they're in hell. Job well done!
OBAMA/BIDEN
McCain's "security first" position makes him guilty as charged.
Rep. Lincoln Diaz-Balart and Rush Limbaugh are complete idiots who use their Republican platforms to distort the truth.
The Republicans are used to screaming "offensive", "dishonest", "insulting", "wolf" "wolf"... when they are blasted with plain and simple truth.
...And they will always look for ways to shift the focus from the economy. Don't be swayed.
Signed,
FOCUS ON THE ECONOMY.
Well two rights don't usually make a right. the ad sounds like it's half true though. McCain has changed his stance, yes?
and so I guess then, someone should ask McCain to apologize for stating Obama is going to raise most Americans' taxes, when in fact Obama will reduce them for approximately 90%.
And where oh where does Limbaugh get off acting so self-righteous, being the fear monger, hate monger and race monger that he is? Laughable. Incredible.
Actually, I was just listening to Rush. He replayed what he had said. Guess what? What he said, was taken from Mexico. In other words, he basically, quoted Mexico's stance on foreign immigration. I am a Moderate. I love listening to the other side for arguement purposes. But, this time, this was taken totally out of context. Come on People! Get the whole statement before you repoprt this!
Does this mean it is now fair to use anyone with even a tenuous connection to the canidate and attribute it to the canidate? Is that now fair game?
How about "I don't think we bombed enough"?
Or moveon.org's "general betrayus"?
Of "GD America"?
Obama and his supporters were well aware of the kind of attacks he would encounter and he still said he would not be that kind of politician. He garnered a lot of support because of that position. But here he is telling lies bigger than what his opponent has done. This is why I do not support Obama even though I am a democrat. He can not be trusted. I know all politicians lie, but to lie about lying is worse yet.
WAAAHHHH! All I know is the tone of this campaign would be alot different if McSame did not mention, every five seconds, to have a town hall meeting!
snark!
Everyone knows Rush a hate-spewing crackhead. If anyone should apologize, it's him to this great country for poisoning public discourse for the last 20 years.
Joe in NJ..."So much for your promise of running a clean campaign Obama. English, Spanish, Chinese – whatever the language you're just as dirty as any other politician."
Yeah right!
Just McSenile's promice not to go negative.
OUCH!!!
Yoa dish it but can't take it!
Grow a pair!
Obama/Biden 08
This makes me sick!!!! How dare Rush, or anyone from McCain's campaign complain about ANY ADS! They are the absolute worst and ought to be ashamed of themselves. I'll never forget the "sex ed" ad, that made me vote for Obama, and I'm an independent. That was the end of McCain/Palin for me.
if you can't take the heat get out of the kitchen..Its ok for McCain and that idiot to lie about everything....words matter–that goes for Limbaughj-McCain's good economy and The moosehunter.Their all a total embaressment to not only the U.S. but to the World .
and Rush you don't have to look far for dirt on Palin–its everywhere –all you have to do is open your eyes.Are yours nailed shut .But you recommend her for the job , so you have to cover that big a– of yours.
LOL GO OBAMA! IT'S ALMOST NOVEMBER AND WE NEED TO ATTACK THE EXTREMISTS WHERE IT HURTS!!! YEEEEEEEEE!
REPUBLICANS FOR OBAMA!
Rush is as pathetic as O'Reilly. I love it these gasbags are being called out. hahahahahaha The left has let them get away with their hate and fearmongering for far too long. I love it that they are whining now. What, do they not like the mirror they're being forced to look into? McCain either needs to denounce their tactics and beliefs or admit he's on their side.
You know it's over for the neocons when Limbaugh's own words are being used against McCain in an ad for Obama. It's over.
Limbaugh flaunted his hatred for Latinos. Now, the Republicans don't want that hard,strong facts announced. The Republicans have cozied up with Limbaugh, now they have to face the music and they don't like it. Too bad.
OBAMA/BIDEN
Fact check please
I have an idea to secure the border. We shoud put Rush Limbaugh's head on the border of Mexico. No one could possibly get over or around that melon!!!
Now who's whining? The Republicans. They can dish out the lies and inuendos, but when it comes to getting it back, they start kicking and screaming like a newborn baby.
Republicans: If you can't take it, don't dish it out. Criticism of the other party is a 2-way street.
As for Rush Limbaugh, he could improve his personality 100% if he had his tongue cut out.
OBAMA/BIDEN 2008/2012
People that write in comments should educate themselves before doing so.
Typical Obama baseless, sound-byte ad.
Rush, you fat lipstickless pig. Take a anal dose of you're own medicine. Operation chaos? Sounds like the McCain camp these days....
That right no way – those mexicans are sleaze bags.
All of the no-tax paying illegals out of the country.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't McCain say that he now opposes his OWN immigration bill? Did Limbaugh or did Limbaugh say the things mentioned in the add? If the Republicans think its okay to dig up the theses of Barack and Michelle Obama from college, its okay to try and link Obama to Ayers, its okay to refer to Michelle as "Obama's baby mama", and call people the most vile, racists things ever, hand out Obama Waffle mix at a convention with a box patterned after Aunt Jemima, then they can't argue against the commercial. At least Obama is telling the TRUTH, something Limbaugh wouldn't know if it came up and bit him on his big, fat, flabby...
This is very flawed logic. Even if McCain did the same thing (which he didn't), your argument is that he deserves it? And that makes it okay for Obama to do it? "What about the issues?" -you liberals ALWAYS complain, but cannot bring yourself to stand in any way against Obama. At least people on the right can disagree with each other in a mannered way. You are all hags who cannot see your own hypocrisies. I am a McCain supporter, but I can feel comfort to call him out when I feel he's wrong-that's the beauty of not being tied down and blind like all of you yes-mans are.
Ah, Rush, aren't you the same guy that launched into Chelsea Clinton?
Thugs in Alaska? What about the Swifities who lied their way to fame and later into trouble when they got outed?!
And Rush, what about the Oxycontin and trips to the Dominican Republic – care to comment?!
So i guess everyone can shut up now about lies and negative campaigning.
If McCain is going to confess that he would now vote against his own efforts and cave to the hate in his party than he has no leg to stand on.
Oh boo hoo. Rush should go hunting with Cheney, and leave the rest of us alone.
Obama/Biden 08
Al Franken got it right in his book - "Rush Limbaugh is a Big Fat Idiot".
It's about time Mr. Limbaugh took some heat. He has been spewing, "You Democrats this. You Domocrats that." for years.
Mr. Limbaugh, it is YOUR party who has been in control for the last years who has caused this mess.
Rush is the best hypocrite ever... no one gives a flip about him... it is a brilliant add by Obama... the truth hurts huh, Rush... you could take some pain killers to make it go away, right???
HAHAHAHAHAH
The repugs are crying ?? You MUST be joking !!!!
Well, he who lives to fight to the bitter END wins the fight.
John McCain is TOAST. Its all down hill from here
and RUSH has a BAD name among MOST as a HATE MONGER
This is a GOOD shot right in the UT
The Obamaniacs are the sleaziest bunch of liars I've seen in a long time. They beat the Clintonistas from the '90s hands-down with their political BS.
So now the McSame campaign cannot tolerate some sence of humor?? Where have you been McCain? Obama is just following yopur steps and introducing some humor – get alive McSame/Rush!
Taste your medicine and see how it tastes!
Limbaugh shouldnt have said the words if he didnt want them used in a commercial. Tasting your own medicine isnt that good...is it Mc-weekend-at-Bernies?
McCain has proven yet again he is not only out of touch with a majority of Americans, but out of his mind. He ought to seek medical attention immediately because it's apparent that he is suffering from Alzheimer's and doesn't consider Spain an Ally of the United States. Keep opening your mouth Senator.. maybe before election day you'll be able to put both your feet and Sarah Palin's in there.
Obama is a racist in the truest form. He has no right to be running for president of this country. To bring race into this already battle field you call a campaign,he can not be trused or fit to run the United States of Americia.
haha....that's a great ad
those republicans can dish but they cant take it...
Limbaugh only cares about the party he doesn't like McCain. Which is why we don't need another republican in the White house. Limbaugh is only afraid of an Obama administration and the implication it would have on his lively hood.
