That's not George W. Bush on your radio.

The Democrats this week are running a radio ad campaign — featuring a Bush impersonator — that criticizes GOP Congressmen Robin Hayes of Concord and Patrick McHenry of Cherryville for being too cozy with oil companies, Rob Christensen reports.

The ad goes like this:

"Hayes-y ... 'W' here. Wanted to thank you for continuing to supprot the Big Oil Energy Agenda. 'Preciate you voting to keep giving billions in tax breaks to the big oil companies. Sure gasoline is over four bucks a gallone and the oil companies are making record profits, but what’s good for Big Oil is good for America, right?"

The ad is being paid for by the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee and is scheduled to run a week. The ad is being used 13 Congressional districts including those of Hayes and McHenry.
