The Halt and the Lame
Please, Democrats, tell me you’re embarrassed—at least a little bit?
House Democrats will use a President Bush impersonator in a new radio advertising campaign that seeks to link 13 incumbent Republicans to rising gas prices as the country heads into the Fourth of July holiday.
The ad will run Monday through Friday in radio markets throughout the country, according to the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, with a total buy of more than $100,000.

“‘W’ here, wanted to thank you for your support of the big oil energy agenda. ‘Preciate you voting to keep giving billions in tax breaks to the big oil companies. Sure, gasoline is over four bucks a gallon and the oil companies are making record profits, but what’s good for big oil is good for America, right? I guess that’s why they call us the Grand Oil Party. Heh, heh, heh.”
A hundred grand for a bad SNL skit? Who wrote that garbage, Al Franken? Democrats should be ashamed. Not for partisanship—but for sheer lameness.
If John McCain ever allows anything so patently asinine and juvenile to be used on his behalf, he should be thrown back into the Hanoi Hilton.

Here’s an idea. The RNC should finance these people.

Well, at least they have graduated from the sound of a black man being dragged to his death in chains while the victim’s daughter blames Bush. Keep up the good work, Dems. Always a class act, always.

Class act? Yea you’re right, we should have just taken a cue from the fella we’re trying to portray and make implications/lies about candidates having illegitimate children. Is that classy?

There is no one as lame as Cheney and his ultra-right
semi-literate supporters..
Wake up — it’s still not to late to join the human race.
