Republican Attack Ads Sink to New Level of Absurdity

The latest Republican attack ads against Senator Obama attempt to portray him as no more than a celebrity and desperately attempt to link him up with Paris Hilton and Britney Spears. These pseudo-attack ads trying to link Senator Obama to two stupor-stars of dubious intellect and reputation will likely confuse the viewers who know that Senator Obama has nothing to do with these two "young ladies." It may leave them as confused as the Republican campaign for presidency. The so-called attack ads are an insult to the people they are trying to influence, the American people. Apparently, Republican self-deception has reached the "outer limits" of what poorly put together minds can conceive.

Senator McCain who insists on attaching himself to an administration that has patented the use of self-deception, is running a campaign that is going rapidly in reverse. Other than reiterating the expected Republican pledge about not raising taxes, Senator McCain has spent much more time attacking Senator Obama's qualities than clarifying what McCain do for this country if elected president. Time is running out and it is clear that the Republican Party is getting more and more desperate. The latest attack ad is likely just a warm-up to even more vicious attack ads that will be released in September and October. By then, the Republican attack ad team will be pairing up Senator Obama with Kermit the frog and Miss Piggy. If they do, they will be giving Senator Obama a better supporting cast in Senator McCain is likely to surround himself

with.

A Brief Introduction

About Me

I retired from the life of an administrator and a bureaucrat to become a writer. My first novel, Unholy Embrace, Was Published in April 2010 by Night to Dawn. My Short Story, A Problem with Werewolves, Was Published in the October 2010 issue of night to Dawn magazine.

I pulled back from publishing blogs on this post because discussion on the key issues had become vitriolic and neither side was listening to the other. I tend to be liberal on most issues, but I tried to keep an open mind. Having an open mind no longer seems to be in vogue.

During the time I had been making posts to this blog, I moved from Myrtle Beach South Carolina, to Forsyth County Georgia. The birth of our granddaughter was a large incentive for moving here.
