AFP Launches $6.1 Million Multi-State, Anti-Obama Ad Campaign
AFP Launches $6.1 Million Multi-State, Anti-Obama Ad Campaign
Americans for Prosperity announced its biggest ad buy yet on Thursday: $6.1 million attacking President Obama.
The ad will hold the president “accountable,” AFP says in a press release, for “sending billions of taxpayer dollars to ‘green energy’ companies overseas, even while Americans suffer with rising energy prices and a lack of jobs.”
“Billions of taxpayer dollars spent on green energy went to jobs in foreign countries,” the narrator says. The ad cites money that went to a solar plant in Mexico, an electric car company in Finland and to build traffic lights in China. “Taxpayers are paying to send their own jobs to foreign countries.”
The ad will run for two weeks in battleground states Colorado, Florida, Iowa, Michigan, Nevada, New Mexico, Ohio and Virginia. AFP says it will also hold rallies and “educational townhalls” throughout the country.

Looks like the GOP's strategy is to pretend they aren't protecting millionaires and greedy corporations.
Vote Romney and Republicans, help American millionaires:
