McCain:
"bought American literally all my life."
Well look what Obama did to show this ain't true
Jump...
Well if people do not get it from this Ad I wonder when they will.
Obama is really taking it home now. He is not letting up and this is just another way of hitting the ole man.
He appears to be keeping it on the offense, which is what he needs to do.
Some folk might think this is small stuff but this is part of the connecting the dots he needs to do.
McCain is lying and it needs to be clear to the voters.
I have a feeling that Keating 5 is going to come up in the debate on Friday.
Obama is showing that he is willing to go there.
I likey-like.

Obama Hits McCain's Foreign Car Ownership
Sam Stein
Sept 23,2008
This is micro-politics, but the Obama campaign is looking for leverage in Michigan by taking McCain to task for not being truthful about the number of foreign automobiles he owns.
This Sunday, Newsweek Magazine reported that McCain owned 13 vehicles, at least four of which were not domestic. The list included a Lexus, a 2005 Volkswagen convertible, a Honda sedan and a Toyota Prius for his daughter (perhaps bought by her).
Well, the composition of this fleet didn't jibe with a remark McCain made to a Detroit television station in which he claimed that he had "bought American literally all my life."
So, what does the Obama campaign do about it? They put together a lengthy memo on the matter and release a television ad aiming to undercut McCain's straight talk reputation...
