Lies, Half-Truths and Contradictions: McCain reheating Mitt's old material
The McCain camp seems to have run out of LHC because they're recycling old ones -- ones that Mitt Romney used against Obama a year ago. Mitt's seconds? Oh, senator.

The latest is in a 30-second TV ad released Monday called "Dangerous." As in the dominant theme of the past 48 hours: "Oooooooh, scary Obama!"

This one leads with the voiced-over question "Who is Barack Obama? He says our troops in Afghanistan are" and (cuts to Obama saying) "... just air-raiding villages and killing civilians" ...

The full quote was Obama criticizing military strategy, not the troops: "We've got to get the job done there and that requires us to have enough troops so that we're not just air-raiding villages and killing civilians, which is causing enormous problems there" ...
