Friend -- In the next 36 hours, the McCain campaign will be pouring millions of dollars -- if not tens of millions -- into negative attack ads against Barack Obama. Just yesterday, they aired a new negative ad in 14 swing states. He doesn't want Americans to notice that the Republican platform is the most extreme we've ever seen -- opposing stem cell research, denying a woman's right to choose no matter what the circumstance, and continuing to spend $10 billion a month in Iraq. With so much at stake, we can't allow another election to be determined by petty and divisive political tactics. Make a donation of $5 or more to fight back against an
unprecedented week of negativity from John McCain.The McCain campaign is trying to distract voters from the real issues -- so we're going to focus on what they're trying to hide. They've come out against the life-saving possibilities of stem cell research. They don't even mention protecting equal
pay for equal work. They support huge tax cuts for the wealthiest 2% of Americans. They've almost completely ignored the $10 billion we're spending every month in Iraq. And they make zero exceptions for a woman's right to choose -- even in cases of rape, incest, or to protect the life of the mother. If that all sounds like more of the same, that's because it is. John McCain is offering a third term of the disastrous Bush agenda, so it's no wonder his campaign would choose to focus on attacks instead of issues.Thank you for all you do,

First, Obama complains about "attacks" from the McCain campain while the mainstream media, liberal bloggers and Obama surrogates rake Sarh Palin over the coals for something her daughter did.
More importantly, Obama has the gall to object to the Republican platform as too extreme.
He points to lack of federal funding for embryonic stem cell research, forgetting this has been the stance of the federal government for years and ignoring the groundbreaking research into adult stem cells, skin cells and cell reprogramming.
Astonishingly, Obama then objects to the Republican stand against abortion in all cases, suggesting that if the Republican plank in the platform allowed for exceptions in the cases of rape and incest, he would have no problem with it. This from the man who voted against a bill that would require protection for babies born during failed abortion attempts.
What could possible be more extreme than that?

I'm getting so tired of libs talking up embryonic stem cell research as though it is going to save the world. There has never been a single successful experiment that has come out of embryonic stem cells, while advances in the medical field are being found in adult stem cells at a regular rate.
Obama has been rated the most liberal Senator in the entire Senate. McCain's record is somewhere in the middle, a bit right of center. And Obama has the nerve to say McCain is extreme?
Liberals are completely wrong about the stem-cell debate for two reasons.
1) just because the federal government does not fund embryonic stem cell research does not mean that the research is illegal. It can be privately funded, or state funded like in California
2) You are totally right; liberals want people to believe that it is going to cure the world of disease. Researchers in the UK last month successfully reprogrammed pancratic cells in diabetic mice, changing regular cells into insulin-producing cells. That alone is more successful than any embryonic stem-cell test ever done.
