Obama Distortion III
New Obama ads are getting sleazier:
The second Obama ad is even more egregious in misleading people about McCain's positions. The ad says McCain "voted against tax incentives for alternative energy--against ethanol, against fuel cells, against hybrids, against electric cars, against wind and solar, against geothermal." Then the ad says McCain wants to give $4 billion in tax breaks to oil companies. This is all a nifty bit of misdirection. The oil company tax breaks the ad refers to are a corporate tax cut McCain favors, which would apply to almost all profitable companies, not just oil companies--including those companies that work on wind, solar and biofuels.
And McCain does support specific tax incentives for alternatives to oil.
