Here’s the word for word on his latest ad…
On gas prices, John McCain’s part of the problem. He and Bush support a drilling plan that won’t produce a drop of oil for seven years. McCain will give more tax breaks to big oil. He’s voted with Bush 95% of the time. Barack Obama will make energy independence an urgent priority, raise mileage standards, fast-track technology for alternative fuels, a $1,000 tax cut to help families as we break the grip of foreign oil. A royal plan and new energy.
“…Obama will make energy independence an urgent priority…” – Wow, if only it were that simple greenhorn.
“…Raise mileage standards…”
Wow, great idea. Once again, if only it were that simple greenhorn.
“…Fast-track technology for alternative fuels”
What, like ethanol, which practically takes as much energy to produce as it provides? Oh, and that production energy comes from oil because the Left is afraid of nuclear. Make no mistake, I’m ALL about alternative energy and the environment, (that and animal rights are categories on which I tend to agree more with the Left), but stating the generalities makes his clear lack of ideas painfully obvious. And what’s worse, he obviously hasn’t been able to hire anyone with ideas or his rhetoric would eventually present one. Fishing from an empty idea pond…
“…a $1,000 tax cut to help families…”
Throw out one from the Right strategy of lower taxes to seem reasonable and score points, before it counts. They’re so out of ideas that they’re using ones from the Right?
The Left must know their candidate has the same leadership experience, but less street smarts, than his driver, but that bed’s made and that’s the best they could do (giggle). That said, it’s not all that different from the Right. No idea how it happened, but we ended up with the worst of the initial bunch (save Paulson). McCain’s in dire need of someone with some economic savvy and real world experience in the private sector (Romney).
All I know is that as oblivious (i.e. Left) as McCain is on many subjects, he’s significantly less dangerous than the horror of letting a blind-eye to history Soros-sock-puppet pull this country’s pants down.
