A new 30-second TV ad attacks Barack Obama's record on education, saying that Obama backed legislation to teach "'comprehensive sex education' to kindergartners." The announcer then says, "Learning about sex before learning to read? Barack Obama. Wrong on education. Wrong for your family."

Why that's wrong: This is a deliberately misleading accusation. It came hours after the Obama campaign released a TV ad critical of McCain's votes on public education. As a state senator in Illinois, Obama did vote for but was not a sponsor of legislation dealing with sex ed for grades K-12.

But the legislation allowed local school boards to teach "age-appropriate" sex education, not comprehensive lessons to kindergartners, and it gave schools the ability to warn young children about inappropriate touching and sexual predators.

Republican Alan Keyes tried to use Obama's vote against him in the 2004 U.S. Senate race. At the time, Obama spoke about wanting to protect young children from abuse. He made clear then that he was not supporting teaching kindergartners about explicit details of sex.

Obama spokesman Bill Burton said Tuesday of McCain's ad: "It is shameful and downright perverse for the McCain campaign to use a bill that was written to protect young children from sexual predators as a recycled and discredited political attack against a father of two young girls."

It's bad enough that Barack Obama wants to teach your kids about sex the difference between appropriate and inappropriate touching, so that they can protect themselves against pedophiles. But, following up on a comment at the Washington Monthly, I see that the Cub Scouts do too.

Back in 2000, after John McCain lost his mostly honorable campaign for the Republican presidential nomination, he went about apologizing to journalists--including me--for his most obvious mis-step: his support for keeping the confederate flag on the state house.

Now he is responsible for one of the sleaziest ads I've ever seen in presidential politics...I just can't wait for the moment when John McCain--contrite and suddenly honorable again in victory or defeat--talks about how things got a little out of control in the passion of the moment. Talk about putting lipstick on a pig.

  • For one thing, she's not ugly. She's really not.

    And also, is it too much to believe that a woman can have more than just her looks to offer? Like intelligence? Wit? A PhD?

  • Absolutely disgusting. This kind of thing is unforgivable. Republicans are crazy.

  • after reaching 3:30 i realized why the fuck am i watching this? and left.

  • Obama's own father was a sexual predator. Ann Dunham was only 17 in 1960 when she was impregnated by 24 year old Barack Hussein Obama Sr. He impregnated another high school girl from Kenya in the US when he was 29. Obama Sr. should have gone to jail for statutory rape. Like most black men he made little effort to support his spawn, moving on to Harvard and more naive White girls. Harvard wanted this afro-predator out and contacted immigration to have the extension on his visa denied.

  • LMAO.... such a sad little dyke. I love her little boy haircut.

  • How stupid can America get, most Americans started fuming over free health care??? Whats that about.

  • @NakedWombat666 - why are you attacking me personally? Is that supposed to persuade me to vote for Obama?

  • So many comments here so typical of Karl Rove retards. Get the gonads out of your mouths, teabaggers! Instead of addressing what Ms Maddow has to say, you make personal attacks on her.

    Shows you can't outhink her or prove her wrong, so you go low. You know, like when Rove dangles his shriveled sack before you and you drop to your knees.

  • @JimmyFormerMan - so does your mommy apparently. How else to explain she was impregnated by your grandaddy when she was six? Or your obvious retardation?

  • Rachel Maddow loves pedophiles.

  • but shes a lesbo

  • FUCK YOU
