Hillary's scumiest attack ad yet: False election news update.
Edited on Mon Mar-03-08 11:01 PM by mckeown1128
This is an election news update with a major news story reported by the AP. While Senator Obama has crisscrossed Ohio giving speeches attacking NAFTA, his top economic advisor was telling the Canadians that was all just political maneuvering. A newly released document from the Canadian government shows that Obama’s senior economic advisor met with the Canadian Consul General and made clear that Obama’s attack on NAFTA were just, quote, “political maneuvering,” not policy. Political maneuvering, not policy. In fact, the document shows that Obama’s advisor also assured the Canadians that these attacks against NAFTA would not continue. Obama would not want to be, quote, “fundamentally changing the agreement.” As Senator Obama was telling one story to Ohio, his campaign was telling a very different story to Canada. How will Ohioans decide whether they can believe Senator Obama’s words? We’ll find that out on election day. Paid for by Hillary Clinton for President.

It only identifies it as a campaign ad at the very end. Notice the selective use of quotes... tell me how over the radio will someone be able to tell the difference between “political maneuvering,” not policy. and "political maneuvering, not policy." This is a purely rovian style ad. Fake election update. Why can't she run an ad critisisng her Obama or building herself up? Why the falsehoods? She leaves out the Candians denial... which alone makes this scumy. But, faking a news update....


I SWEAR... I AM GETTING REALLY UPSET AT HILLARY'S CAMPAIGN... THIS COMBINED WITH THE "SHAME ON YOU" MOMENT LAST WEEK. AND THE MAKING THE CASE FOR MCCAIN OVER OBAMA. IT MAKES ME WANT TO...oh wait..my caps was on... but I am still pissed to hell... good luck getting me to show up in the GE...


Edit: Sorry, I forgot the link.

34. It's misleading. The Obama advisor told the Canadians the same thing...
...Obama is saying publicly:

He doesn't want to end NAFTA, but wants more labor and environmental protections.

The ad also uses the word "quote" to mislead people into thinking the advisor is being quoted, when he's not.

13. Provided by the Obama campaign
Did you notice that?

Says to me this story appeared on Halperin's blog as a rebuttal to Clinton. It means our man is on it. I dig rapid-response Obama.

Let everyone see the ad. Let them judge.

I love how she criticizes Obama over positions she shares with him. It's inherently stupid politics and it's been working against her.

I guess they didn't think they'd have to make it illegal for campaigns to do it too.
