DENVER, Colo. (KKCO) A pro-Republican group is pouring 25 million into new tv ads that will air in Colorado and other battleground states. According to published reports, the ads will blame President Obama for the sluggish economy. The ads call for more energy production, reduced taxes and regulation, plus an end to the health law that Republicans call "Obamacare."

    Approximately 80% of the voting public already know who they are going to vote for. I do! The attack ads must work for the 20% undecided. So I change the channel.

    Doesn't Jon Stuart utilize each one of those on a nightly basis, oh 'sophisticated' one?

      Can you not understand sarcasm oh humo(u)rless one? I do think that if you vote for Obama , though that you are disregarding the facts, getting news from comedians such as Ezra Klein or you really do like an America in decline.

        Please, give the facts...just be sure to name sources this time. And, just in case you don't know, I'm pretty sure Ezra Klein is a Washington Post writer. Maybe his opinions seems comedic to you, but that doesn't give you the right to attack someone based upon their opinions like you originally did. I guess after making a fool of yourself on this thread, you might think twice before attacking someone again.

          Which facts are you looking for? I'll take time out of my busy schedule to look them up for you and source them too. I understand that Ezra, Rachel, and Krugman are the Pied Pipers of the left, but thank goodness they haven't taken away freedom of speech yet, so I will "attack" them if I wish by calling them comedians. (I'll refrain from calling them what I'd really like, as that may really send someone over the edge)

    Luke, are you living on the same planet as the rest of us? Please quote sources, I'm interested to hear where you got the 69% fact? Or is that just your favorite number?

      Yep, 69% is far, far too low. Obama has sent 200% more kids to their death for the bankers.

      The facts, came from a report by the Pentagon, but because you libs don't like "facts", you won't look it up for yourself, and I doubt you have any interest in finding out for yourself. I am a war veteran, I know from first hand experience, that when the inexperienced president imposes his rules for warfare, more Americans get hurt than the enemy.

      Oh come on?!? I'm sure you know where to find original information, quotes in context, vote records, videos, statistics and so on.

    "Iraq has weapons of mass destruction...." "Iraq has weapons of mass destruction...." "Iraq has weapons of mass destruction...." Say ANYTHING long enough and loud enough and the fearful will buy it. Americans will believe anything they hear on TV over and over. Why do you think the politicos spend so much on air time?

    So, factsourfriends, your intellectual superiority must derive from the likes of Fox news?

      No, not necessarily sweetheart. I like facts from original sources. Don't you?

    If you are relying on polotical ads to make you're decisions say. Baaaaaa. Then take yourself to a slaughter house.

    Thanks again SCOTUS...this is why my tv is staying off until November. And, this goes for all of them; Romney and Obama. Living in a swing state sucks!
  • by Anonymous on Jul 8, 2012 at 09:19 AM
    Funny - you report on this, but not the fact that Obama has been bashing Romney for weeks in Colorado with false attack ads... I guess we know who you're in the pocket for.

      Oh come on, you don't recall all the news stories kkco ran about bush being targeted with evil ads? By the way, where is code pink? obama's body count has far surpassed bush's. And he did it in half the time!

        You must be talking about the American body count, since obama has been in office, American deaths are up 69% above what they were when Bush was in command. And obama did that with his appeasment type strategy, tie the hands of our troops so the taliban, (who are our friends) won't get hurt as much as they were when Bush was in charge.

    I read and stay up to date on the issues, using multiple sources like CNN, MSNBC, NPR and the NYT. All of this is just total bunk promoted by corporate interests.

      CNN, MSNBC, NPR, NYT You are really very funny, good comedic value to your post. I'll bet you get the rest of your news from Jon Stewart that's why you understand good humour. ( Britsh English spelling of word to show my sophistication)
