Dems spoof Boehner in new ad
Two of the most liberal groups in Washington - Public Campaign Action Fund and the Campaign for America's Future - released Internet ads today that attack the three House Republicans running to succeed Rep. Tom DeLay of Texas as House majority leader.
Check out the ad on Rep. John Boehner of West Chester. Note that the ad is correct when it says Boehner handed out PAC checks on the floor of Congress, but that happened back in 1995, and Boehner says now that he regrets doing it.
Next, check out the ad featuring Rep. Roy Blunt of Missouri, who claims the lead in the race. Blunt does have the closest ties to DeLay of the three, as the ad suggests, but what's wrong with that? It's not like DeLay has been found guilty of anything - yet.
Finally, check out the ad targeting Rep. John Shadegg of Arizona, who trails the others in promised votes but could end up getting enough votes to be the tiebreaker. Shadegg did get money from sources linked to Abramoff, like the ads says, but he has since donated all of it to charity.
*Disclaimer: These ads and this post are meant to be satirical and should not be viewed or read by anyone without a sense of humor.

Post a Comment*Did Boehner promise you an exclusive interview if you did his PR work for him, Malia? Or were you just flat-out paid like Audry Lewis?
Anonymous - yes, it's unfortunate when the facts don't square with what you wish were true.
It is not like this is positive for OSU.
Malia,
The bias in your 'reporting' is clearly exposed in this post for the world to see. First you act as Mean Jean's press agent in the Enquirer, now you are shilling as the resident apologist for republican corruption.
If you had any dignity or ethics you would resign as a reporter. You can always get a job as a PR agent for a republican PAC, lobbyist or candidate. Mean Jean needs a new campaign manager, why don't you apply for the job?

Exactly how is this 'satirical' Malia?
These are real ads that call the republican leadership out for their corruption. As for Delay, you defence of him betrays your obvious bias.
as to your post, there is nothing 'satirical' about it. Are you attempting to cover your obvious right wing bias now that you are being called on it?
