Obama Lies About Oil Money
Judicial Watch ^ | April 24, '08 | staff

While Barack Obama starred in television ads this month claiming he doesn't take money from from oil companies he actually raked in thousands of dollars in donations from industry executives and employees. In the television commercials promoting his infamous change theme, Obama sternly assures that he doesn't take money from oil companies immediately after pointing out that Exxon is making $40 billion a year and Americans pay $3.50 for gas. As the deceiving commercials were being broadcast Obama was filling his campaign coffers with oil dollars, bringing to light serious credibility and honesty issues...

The MSM are in the tank for Obama but are becoming increasingly embarrassed by their messiah. They thought because he was a fresh face with a short political past that he'd be clean. Now it's become obvious to even his most obtuse supporters that what little experiences he's had has all been bad. Pastor Wright, Ayers the terrorist, and Rezko are now known to be friends and supporters. Even shills like Chris Matthews are becoming flusterd and stuttering and blubbering more than usual. They won't publically admit they have buyer's remorse but it's simmering just below the surface. With scandal following scandal it's become apparent that their straight-shooter is crooked as a dog's hind legs.

What? Obama and BIG OIL? Say it isn’t so!!

Guess that shoots his hypocritical “No Blood for Oil” stance all to hell re Iraq.

So what else is new, Mrs. Lincoln?

Hillary was saying today nobody takes money from oil companies, it has been illegal for 100 years.
