Am I the only one who thinks using Moses in a political ad is offensive?

[thewiseguy]

I am not a Jew but I find it deeply offensive to inject Moses into a political ad. Especially since in the previous ad Obama was compared to other celebrities such as Paris Hilton and Britney Spears.

So does McCain believe Moses, Paris Hilton, and Britney Spears are in the same league now? :shrug:

I really dont get the point about mocking Obama using Moses anyway. So because Obama is not Moses he can not be a leader? :shrug:

1. It was offensive. Offensive on so many levels.

[Kutjara]

2. I can see the debate now:

McCain: "Moses was a close friend of mine and, let me tell you, you're no Moses."

6. Obama never claimed to be Moses

McCain is no Moses either. Does that mean he is not fit to lead this country?

I really dont get the point on this one. :shrug:

8. I was just making a joke about McCain's age.

As for his Moses comment, it was consistent with just about everything he says in the sense it had no point. He's got no drive, no ability, no ideas, nothing. He is, in every sense, pointless.

3. maybe it had something to do with 10 condoms or something.

beats me.

4. Obama should attack McSame for offending Christians and Jews by injecting Moses into politics

Put that fucker on the defensive

[Purveyor]

5. Just keep handing the McLame camp the rope... the "chickens will soon come home to roost"!

7. I'm not exactly offended, but I think it's dumber than crap--I mean, Moses WAS a

damn good leader--and then they flat-out state that the ad is about Obama leadership skills?

[thewiseguy]

9. Moses was no Paris Hilton or Britney Spears. McCain should not even go there.

The man has no shame. He is now using sacred religous figures in his dumb political ads.

10. Apparently not ...

But I don't find it offensive at all. Why would I? Why would using a biblical character for a commercial be offensive?

Stupid? Well, using him the way McCain's campaign did, yeah, it's stupid.

But, it's not offensive.

For those claiming it is offensive, please explain it to me.

11. It's offensive.
