McCain Caught Lying to Michiganders

The McCain campaign's efforts to portray Sen. Obama as an elitist have hit another, well, bump in the road. NEWSWEEK reports that John McCain owns a fleet of 13 automobiles and, to make matters worse, has been caught in yet another lie.

In a recent interview with Detroit station WXYZ-TV, McCain bragged that "I've bought American literally all my life and I'm proud." It turns out that McCain's "all-American" fleet includes four foreign-made automobiles: a Honda sedan, a Volkswagen convertible, a Toyota Prius, and a Lexus with vanity plates reading "MS BUD." And that doesn't include Cindy's tricked out Nissan drift racer.

So at a time when U.S. automakers and their employees are fighting for their lives, McCain actually had the audacity to go to Detroit and lie to their faces. Oh and for the record, Barack and Michelle Obama own 1 automobile: a Ford Escape Hybrid.

Most of these automobiles are MADE right here in the US of A, by US of A employees! So they are USA made.
from Ohio where Honda is made.
