Gee, just WHERE is the money gonna come from?
Listening to a spot on WBBM just now. The scenario is the incumbent keeps raising property taxes, but the challenger is gonna make sure the schools get needed "state funds" for new construction, but won't raise your taxes....

OK, so if you're out of money, just WHERE is additional money for schools gonna come from?

Oh, now Phil Crane is telling us that Melissa Bean is against Chimpy's "middle-class" tax cuts and is FOR the "Death Tax"...Yeah, like you gotta worry about the "Death Tax" if you're in the middle-class...

Without taxes, just how are they gonna pay for shit....

Oh, that's right, I forgot....PRIVATIZATION!

"Ah'm gonna let you OWN EVERYTHING! 'cept the White House, that belongs to the Oil Industry..."

1. I have seen that ad
What a bunch of crap. I am so sick of right wing spin, sometimes it literally makes me want to vomit.

2. Sickening...
They are running ads in the Philly market aginst Ginny Schrader(D). Her opponent, Michael Fitzpatrick, is saying that she is supported by "a Left-Wing Radical group, that was against military action against the Taliban after 9/11. A group resposible for kidnappings, rape, murder and terrorism."

On first listen, you would think the Left-wing group was resposible for the kidnappings, rape, etc. The only way they clarify this is a real quick graphic of MoveOn.org's logo behind the first statement, then the word Taliban behind the second.

I just get furious when I see it, because it's so obvious what they are trying to do....:mad:
