4933933, Obama launches negative radio ad in Mississippi
Posted by carlotta on Thu Mar-06-08 05:31 PM

CNN) – Barack Obama’s campaign has debuted a new radio ad in Mississippi called "Respect," highlighting what they call “derogatory” remarks Hillary Clinton made about the state late last year.

The ad also argues that Obama will “practice his Christian faith by respecting us” — an apparent push-back against the false Muslim rumors that have dogged him throughout the campaign.

In the 30-second spot, former Mississippi Governor Ray Mabus, an Obama supporter, derides Clinton for comments she made last fall singling out the state’s record of electing female politicians.

Mabus accuses the Clinton campaign of calling Mississippi voters “second class.”

“Now I don’t know about you, but I’m tired of people putting us down,” Mabus says in the ad. “Tired of politicians trying to divide our nation instead of lifting it up.”


Oh, brother. I'm so glad Obama's going to be practicing his Christian faith by respecting us. Does he mean it's Christian to keep women down?

No one will pick up on this, though, will they?

instead of a medical, situation or personal choice. Yep its all about using faith to be a bigot.

Please tell me he didn't make a speech in Philadelphia, Mississippi (like Reagan) rolling out his bigot agenda.
