Obama misleadingly reports and lies

A radio advertisement running in Wisconsin and other contested states misleadingly reports that Mr. McCain “has stood in the way of” federal financing for stem cell research; Mr. McCain did once oppose such federally supported research but broke with President Bush to consistently support it starting in 2001 (his running mate, Gov. Sarah Palin of Alaska, does not support it).  I personally heard this ad. And I know McCain is for stem cell research.


A commercial running here on Thursday morning highlighting Mr. McCain’s votes against incentives for alternative energy misleadingly asserts he supports tax breaks for “one source of energy: oil companies.” Mr. McCain’s proposed corporate tax break would cover all companies, including those developing new sources of power.


And what did Obama say? 


 Asked by a voter in New Hampshire if he would respond in kind, Mr. Obama said, “I just have a different philosophy, I’m going to respond with the truth,” adding, “I’m not going to start making up lies about John McCain.” 


Sounds like a lie to me. There is more in the article, link is at the top of the post.

"McCain opposes embryonic stem cell research that uses cloned human embryos."


Considering we have multiple sources of making stem cells today one has to wonder why anyone would support embyonic stem cell research other than a means to further dehumanise fetuses/embryos.

"dehumanise fetuses/embryos"


Fertility clinics frequently dispose of human embryos. Some are disposed of in medical waste others simply flushed down the drain.

Hey there, Doc! Your second "O" seems a bit distended. What's up with that?

You know, I was just thumbing through the archives, reading some of your old posts - you know, just for fun and all - and I came across this piece of wisdom and admonishment, so I thought I'd share it with everyone out there:

I suppose I always could set up a dozen or so IDs and start sewing discontent on the board as others have done while those attempting to be honest get kicked off.


But naw, you'd never do something slimy like THAT, now would you?

Oooo! Found another!

On an unrelated note I should probably caution you. Some here post under multiple IDs and attempt to bait other’s out from time to time. I believe there are poster(s) here with identity issues which often is indicative of emotional problems. Just so you know.


Those....those BASTARDS. Thanks for the tip; we all need to keep an eye out.

Unlike you my unrequited friend, I only post under 1 ID at a time and make it clear who I am.
