Then why did you air it in the first place? My dad said he saw the other night and was disgusted.

Democracy for America is headed by James Dean, the brother of Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean.

Talk about cronyism... Howard Dean is the gift that keeps on giving.

I’m not sure if others saw this add, but it is perhaps the worst most vile add I’ve seen in my lifetime.

It showed McCain’s face from the left side during the full length of the add. It showed post surgery stitching that resembled for the lack of a better example, a scarecrows stitched face. I said it was was vile. I was serious.

During the spot it mentioned that McCain has had cancer four times, and his mortality was certain to be in question.

MSNBC revealed it’s true colors by airing this add. MSNBC is quite simply an illegitimate enterprise, trying to pass itself off as a news outlet. It is a propaganda machine that would do the old Pravda proud.

It’s truly a national disgrace, and beyond.

Well, they pulled it, which means they must have gotten a lot of complaints.

I think we all know that already. MSNBC is nothing more than a shill for Nobama.

I recorded it the other night, hoping to post it. Then I cleaned out my DVR, and lost it. They got the mileage they wanted out of it. What jerks!

True enough. It’s still amazing to what lengths they’ll go to. It seems to get worse all the time.

Unfortunately, America has a cancer. This cancer is known as the mainstream media.

The good news is this cancer is treatable by heavy doses of common sense. I’m hoping enough Americans wake up and realize this lest we wind with Nobama.

Democracy For America used to be DEAN For America. Screaming Howie needs to apologize.

Clinton first;

when Bill Clinton releases HIS medical records, then John McCain might consider releasing his.

Way to go. Alienate all voting cancer victims, survivors, and their families on behalf of your beloved BO.

It was a disgrace, the only thing that script lacked was a line that said, “We are hoping McCain will just go ahead and die so we can begin planning BO’s coronation.” What kind of people are those any way? As my father said, “Have they no decency?” And my short answer: No.

I saw the ad this morning, and it was disgusting.

The lowest politics I’ve ever seen.

I agree with you Angela. The answer is no.

The personal information on the two “doctors” in the ad need to be plastered all over the internet. Let’s see how many cases they testified for John Edwards as experts. How many malpractice suits have they faced. Where they live. What were they paid. Did they violate medical ethics.

You get the idea.

Since probably 99.9% of the people who watch PMSNBC are — like just about everyone associated with the cable channel — in the tank for Obambi, hate Bush/Cheney et al, and whine about McCain and Palin (especially Palin!) and will NEVER vote for them, then why on earth would the lame Obambi campaign run anti-McCain ads, no matter what the topic? But yes: even by the standards of PMSNBC (i.e. none when it comes to trashing Republicans) running this ad is an abomination.
