Back in April, we noted now WorldNetDaily had promoted an inline-text ad for a seller of homemade solar panels with the tagline “Still paying Obama for electricity?”
Well, HomeMadeEnergy.org is back, and its current WND text ad states: “Don’t pay Obama for electricity any longer!”
In addition to engaging in superfluous Obama-bashing — as before, the ad itself makes no mention whatsoever of Obama — it’s factually inaccurate. The majority of electricity in the U.S. is generated by either private/shareholder-held companies or municipal or regional public utilities. The closest anyone gets to “paying Obama for electricity” are customers of the Tennessee Valley Authority, which is federally owned.
