The Obama campaign has a new advertisement attacking Sen. McCain on Social Security and, as with previous ads, FactCheck.org finds it wanting. Here's the ad itself: Announcer: Three years ago John McCain campaigned for George Bush's plan to risk your Social Security in the stock market. And voted three times in favor of privatizing Social Security. FactCheck calls foul on a number of claims:
So imagine if McCain and Bush had gotten their way, and invested your future retirement benefits at Lehman Brothers? Bankrupt. AIG? Bailed out. Merrill Lynch? Sold.
John McCain; The risk is too great, trying four more years of the same.
Obama: I'm Barack Obama, and I approved this message.
