McCain Oil Ad

Jul 29th, 2008
by Drew Tatusko.

Still wondering about the McCain ad that basically says that the oil prices are Obama's fault.  Not sure how that works out.  I have liked McCain's other ads so far and I think they have probably been quite effective.  This one, however, makes no rational sense at all.  Help me try to understand if you care or desire.

    First, I must disclose, I am not a fan of John McCain. Having said that, I think he is running a terrible campaign and this ad may be the best example of just plain old political pandering, bending the truth and playing on people's ignorance.

    There has been an off-short drilling ban (both Presidential and Congressional) for years. It's not Barack Obama's fault. He didn't put the ban on off-shore drilling nor has he single-handedly blocked it from being lifted. John McCain himself was for the ban until recently. The ad mentions $4 gas...$5 gas... no end in sight.. (or something like that). Guess I missed the $5 gas.

    I'm very disappointed that John McCain approved this deceptive ad. While I might disagree with his politics, I thought him to be a man of integrity. This ad is just wrong.
