TV AD--Anti Obama Coal ad that is running in Western PA/Eastern Ohio.

My wife and I have tried our best not to hear the B.S. ads this political season. BUT yesterday my wife couldn't escape this ad that wasn't just running on TV but radio as well.


It is one guy talking about how because of Obama the coal mine he was working in closed and the thing that REALLY caught my wife's ear was that the guy used -- Because of Obama's Deregulations my coal mine was closed."

My wife is 80% positive she heard him say DEregulations and it pissed her off that they can not only lie in these ads BUT so many americans are so "dumb" that they can use a word opposite to the meaning of their intent and no one is calling them out on it.

Has anyone seen this ad and did my wife hear correctly or is she mistaken?

1. I've seen it in south central PA.

My husband and I discussed the fact that he is being used and does not know it. If what he says is true, about his mine being closed, he's losing on all ends. So he's losing his job and now Romney's people are taking advantage of him. Ill listen for the DEreguation line. Can't say I was paying much attention other than feeling the guy was being used and was not informed enough to realize it.

2. I keep hearing that Obama is killing coal I just don`t get it.

I live in southeast KY and coal seems to be moving pretty good.I see coal moving 6 days a week I also know several truck owners that have bought or buying new truck and trailers,together they cost close to a quarter of a million dollars each,so President Obama must not be hurting it too bad.
