WASHINGTON (AP) — Barack Obama's running mate says a campaign ad that mocked Republican presidential candidate John McCain as an out-of-touch, out-of-date computer illiterate was "terrible" and would not have been done had he known about it.
Obama, McCain's Democratic rival, launched the ad earlier this month, part of an aggressive push to slow McCain's rise in the polls after he chose Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin to be his running mate. It included unflattering footage of Sen. McCain at a hearing in the early '80s, wearing giant glasses and an out-of-style suit, interspersed with shots of a disco ball, a clunky phone, an outdated computer and a Rubik's Cube."He admits he still doesn't know how to use a computer, can't send an e-mail, still doesn't understand the economy, and favors $200 billion in new tax cuts for corporations, but almost nothing for the middle class," the ad says.
Asked about the negative tone of the campaign, and this ad in particular, during an interview broadcast Monday by the "CBS Evening News," Obama's running mate, Sen. Joe Biden, said he disapproved of it.
"I thought that was terrible, by the way," Biden said.
Asked why it was done, he said: "I didn't know we did it and if I had anything to do with it, we'd have never done it."
What the hell is that? He thought it was terrible? If he had anything to do with it it never would have been done? The fact is that the ad mocked a man who can't type because of injuries he sustained at the hands of his captors while serving his country in Vietnam. Obama on the other hand has only served himself, and his followers are hacking into the email accounts of a Vice Presidential nominee. His campaign/Democratic Party also threatened a Jewish organization with an investigation into its tax exempt status in order to get Sarah Palin disinvited from an anti nuclear Iran rally that was held today.
So is Biden playing the usual Obama games or is he just a rube? You be the judge. Whatever the case it is clear that the Democratic Party under Obama's control is nothing more than a Stalinist cesspool of strong arming and McCarthyism. Way to go assholes. High five!
