Obama ad pushes back on GOP's oily attack

In response to an Republican party ad that rips his energy policy, presumptive Democratic nominee Barack Obama launched an ad of his own in the same four battleground states of Ohio, Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin.

Republican John McCain recently called for lifting the ban on offshore oil drilling, and the GOP is trying to portray Obama's opposition as obstructing efforts to lower gas prices.

But in a counterattack of interest to voters in coastal Florida, Obama's new ad seeks to poke holes in the more-drilling-equals-lower-prices theory, saying "McCain and Bush support a drilling plan that won't produce a drop of oil for seven years."

Watch the ad here.

And it is another Obama miracle - everything for everybody. So where is he going to get the resources to do this? Tell them what they want to hear.

Barack Obama is a grafter from Chicago who lives in a fine home that was partially paid for by graft from low-income housing not renovated by his buddy Tony Rezco (see "Obama's Strange Bedfellows", U-Tube) and financed at a discount by special interest mortgage lenders who are now foreclosing on homes across America.
