Check out the angry response to the McCain camp's humorous Paris Hilton/Britney Spears ad:
"So, they didn't pick other big celebrities, who were either men, or black, or married. What they picked was two sexually available white women. But it must have been a coincidence, because we know John McCain wants to run an elevated campaign focusing on the serious issues that America faces."
Ah, yes--of course! The McCain people, to those on the left, can never be funny!!
Just racists...
Want more evidence? See also the NY Times' Bob Herbert today:
"...low-life political ads featuring tacky, sexually provocative white women who have no connection whatsoever to the black male candidates....trashing the opposition, Karl Rove-style....Now, from the hapless but increasingly venomous McCain campaign, comes the slimy Britney Spears and Paris Hilton ad....foul, poisonous and emanated from the upper reaches of the Republican Party....Mr. Obama has to endure these grotesque insults with a smile and heroic levels of equanimity. The reason he has to do this — the sole reason — is that he is black."
Sigh.....
