Eugene Robinson comments on Mccain's dirty attacks

[DOCTORDANification]

Do you REALLY think this is true or just BS to put a racist white hood on McCain via the media. Smelled like a hitjob then, now it just looks obvious. Mad at Obama for being black?

[not8upwthit]

Does anyone recall McCain telling supporters not to fear Obama ?

[not8upwthit]

Bullshit if anything McCain ran to soft and avoided several issues that were relevent to Baraks lack of character-from Jermiah Wright, Bill Ayers and the list goes on. The imposter comes accross very well reading a teleprompter.

[acs5pall]

obama is a scumbag

[paulp1021]

As much as I dislike McCain and Palin. Unfortunately, these dirty political attacks works. Because most people in this country are as stupid as a Goddam stump. And the GOP knows how inept & poorly informed people are. And from a lot of the asinine comments I've read thus far on Youtube like "Barack Hussein Obama is a radical Muslim" or Obama is a Socialist", GOP talking points, and all that other kind of garbage. It's no wonder why these dirty political ads still work very effectively.

[Sinquisition]

I agree. Politics and its fanatics broke off with reality - in reality, they all look like gossiping drama queens. And braindead America buys the radical assumptions and quote-basing as if they were words from gods. I chose Obama because he didn't descend as low as McCain did - McCain went rockbottom.

What ever happened to moral standards these days.

[FAHayek89]

Even given Scarborough and MSNBC's left lean, this report makes it clear that Obama is indeed the one who has brought forward the race card, not McCain. The intent of the report seems to backfire.

As to the Hilton ad? Mean? Yes. Relevant? Possibly not. Racist? That is absurd.

This is laughable.

[aksabin]

LOL...You have the BALLS to say McCain is using "dirty tricks" when Obama has ACORN out there stealing the election with dead voters, underage voters, multiple voters...and my personal favorite...Dallas Cowboy linebackers. FUNNY!

[appleshake123]

warcraft1920- what about the adds that the obama campaign released showing pictures of MCcain when he had cancer on his face and making fun of him that he didn't know how to use e-mail. I mean, that's pretty low for them to do. It's not funny to make fun of someone who has/had cancer i don't care who you are. As far as MCcain not knowing how to use the computer, they broke both his arms when he was a POW for 5 years.

[hannityforpres]

Stop Barack al-Hussein Obama. He is a socialist.

[mayyourtruthbetold]

How about all the lies that McCain has said in his ads.

[reastedd]

I wish Eugene Robinson would get the snot out of his nose once in a while.

He's another guy I want to punch in the fucking face.

The others are Chris Matthews, Rachel Maddow, and Keith Olbermann aka vindictive mother fuckers that keep pushing and pushing.

At least Robinson ain't vindictive.

[jeanise10]

that was uncalled for eugene is a good reporter and smart man such a wonderful success story give this guy his due you people are so hateful grow up let the children have the tantrums

[williebud87]

Liberals will never grow up.

[ruediix]

Conservatives will never grow a brain.

Frankly, words are the strongest weapon in our arsonal, and McCain wants to continue the Bush Administration pattern of not using them that lead to 9/11, the Nuclear crises in N. Korea and the Iraq war.

I think anyone with a little maturity realizes that the best way to deal with a situation is NOT to go in guns blazing and "bomb bomb bomb, bomb bomb Iran!"

[bboysimons]

republicans always play dirty,oh well... but they cant stop the tide of change....

[hillaryforthepeople]

Who the heck watches MSNBC?

[bluesrunnerdog]

McCain was the one who started the attact toward Obama! We're so proud of Obama, he's finally fighting back and that's the way it should be. He was so polite toward McCain for so long, he wanted this election to be all about what can he do for our country, not about the 2 candidates keep on attacking each others. But ever since his speech in Berlin, McCain just couldn't deal with it, Talk about DIRTY POLITIC!

[LennyWingtip]

so it's dirty to tell the truth??? people are sooo proud of obama because of....??? maybe it's his his lack of accomplishing anything sibstatial other than smooth talking.

[warcraft1920]

No fox dosent report that McCain has been in congress for 26 years has has done nothing. I will go with a new guy any day then a guy thats has been in for a long time and done nothing. McCains energy plan is a joke. He wants to invade Iran and he thinks were in a mentel reccession and that were a nation of whinners. I know he himself didnt say that but when your top economic advisor does that shows what were in for. If McCain gets elected say hello to bushes 3rd term.

[LennyWingtip]

hot air.

[warcraft1920]

If Americans are seeing right threw the race card then why are illegal immagrants using it to great effect. Annoying as it is using the race card still works buddy

[LennyWingtip]

not when it comes to voting for the president. BUDDY.

[warcraft1920]

Look at the comments on youtube. There are a shit load of people not voting for Obama cause hes black. You people would rather have an idiot in charge then a blackman. So dont bitch if McCain wins when this country looks more like Mexico. Its you people that did it.

[djburtis]

You people, what do you mean you people? ;-

[ruediix]

Yeah, and a heck of a lot of times McCain has failed to rebuke a racist who introduced him the moment he got on stage.

Frankly, If I was in McCain's shoes, I would refuse to shake the guys hand, and instead I would just stand there and say "I don't shake hands with a racist, now get off my stage before I call security."

[warcraft1920]

You know how McCain can really get points? If he condemned the recent book of lies about Obama. That "Obamanation." And didnt McCain say he was running a clean campaign? Whats with all these attack adds? And they call Obama a flip-flopper.

[osiris33]

There is a McCain ad with Obama on a dollar bill... it's on youtube...

[IntelligentCreature]

how is the celeb ad racist when use 2 white girls to compare obama's celeb status to him?

"airhead or celeb cause he has not done anything..." ok...why ask the racist question, if they are able to answer it on their own......

that is EXACTLY...what it conveyed to me as a viewer....

[cosmlayla]

great video.

[USA04July1776]

Eugene Robinson is a race obsessed Afro-Leninist.  Today these race activists are all about supremacy and not at all about equality any longuer...

[cossack207]

damn right!!

[Boobalopbop]

And... You can't say celebrity is not earned in Britney's case. That girl EARNED it. She didn't have a childhood. She's been bleached, tanned, implanted, plucked, waxed, lipo sucked, enhanced, diminished and forced to perform since she was 9. I'm not in the least a fan of hers, but she has earned her money. Paris on the other hand is a waste of Valtrex ointment.

Either way, neither belong in a campaign ad for president.

[Boobalopbop]

To answer Tiki's question... YES its racist! If it was about grouping him with the biggest celebrities in the world, it would be: Angelina Jolie, Madonna, Tiger Woods, David Beckham, Beyonce and Oprah.... WHO is interested in Britney or Paris? The idea was to have him pictured with 2 young blonde dimwits. Playing on the big black man out to corrupt your daughters...infact they are the reason they are SO corrupt. I'm shocked Lindsey Lohan's mugshot wasn't in the ad.

[skids7682]

Umm. Hello Media? The McCain campaign DID put Obama's face on a dollar bill in a web ad in June. Isn't it your job to know these things?
