Script of "Real Life" (Radio)

ANNOUNCER: In his TV ads, Barack Obama sounds like he'll take on the oil companies.

BARACK OBAMA: I don't take money from oil companies.

ANNOUNCER: What he doesn't tell you is that no candidate does. They can't, according to the Annenberg Center's Factcheck.org. It's been against the law for companies to donate to candidates for a hundred years.

Listen to Barack Obama some more.

BARACK OBAMA: Now Exxon's making $40 billion a year, and we're paying $3.50 for gas.

ANNOUNCER: Obama doesn't mention that he voted for the Bush-Cheney energy bill. It was called "a piņata of perks" and "the best energy bill corporations could buy."

Hillary Clinton voted against that bill.

She's the one who will make the oil companies pay to set up a new strategic energy fund that will cut our dependence on foreign oil, invest in new clean energy and create five million new jobs.

It's time for a president who takes on the oil companies in real life, not just on TV: Hillary Clinton.

Paid for by Hillary Clinton For President.

HILLARY RODHAM CLINTON: I'm Hillary Clinton, candidate for president, and I approve this message.
