Finally some spine…

Well…I hope Obama has learned something from the debate and the result that someone with no regard for the truth can have…if you don’t mind lying all the time, it is easy to make people think you know what you are talking about and to refute what your opponent says. But, some spine seems to be growing in the Obama camp and the new ads that call ole Mitt out as a liar…using the footage from the debate to point out that almost everything Mitt said was a lie…and what he continues to say is just more and more lies culminating in the so-called foreign policy speech where he just copied what Obama has been doing and presenting it as new or different. One more thing we must remember is the fact that the “Arab Spring” was not driven by the US in any way…it was an uprising of the people of those sovereign states and to denigrate those that were lost fighting for their freedom is just more of the tone deafness that Romney shows whenever he talks about foreign policy…the incompetence is must mind boggling…geez…

More Romney nonsense…

Well….I think the transformation of ole Mitt into Obama is complete today with his “major” foreign policy speech where he was going to lay out his “better way” on foreign policy…the only problem with that is he basically just restated Obama’s policies and called them his own and new. When is this country going to wake up to the fact that this guy is just the worst sort of panderer who has no core, no beliefs of his own and start to really listen to what this idiot is saying? First he says tax cuts for the rich and then no tax cuts for the rich…what is he going to do if he is elected? You know it will be all tax cuts, all the time and more wars that the neocons that are running his foreign policy want…especially with Iran. I for one, have had enough of the rehabilitation of the neocons that got us into the two wars the repubs didn’t pay for giving us the ballooning debt we have now… wake up, people…geez…

Mitt’s tax problem…

Well…Just a short one on the whole “47% of the people don’t pay taxes” flap that came from the callous comment that Romney made…it made me think of another comment that ole Mitt made a few months back when he was pressed on the fact that he only pays 14% in income taxes and his response was that he was paying everything that the tax code requires and not a penny more. The sad thing is that he then makes the 47% comment when those people that don’t pay federal income taxes are doing exactly the same thing…they are following the tax code that allows them to not pay these federal taxes. So, what is perfectly okay for a rich guy like ole Mitt is wrong when the middle or lower class does it? Just another example where Mitt is amoral. saying anything to appeal to whoever he is talking to with no consistency or core…geez…

Mitt again…still crazier…

Well…it’s starting to look like ole Mitt is one of those guys that never met an idea that he didn’t like…and the craziest one of the last week is his endorsement of a campaign mailer for northern Virgina that pledges his support to eradicate “chronic Lyme disease” that the flyer says is an epidemic there. Never mind that the epidemic is a thousand cases of Lyme disease in a population of three million people…the best part is that chronic Lyme disease does not exist according to the AMA….the only person that is pushing this diagnosis is a big donor to Romney and a doctor that had his license suspended for endangering patients with the unnecessary, huge doses of antibiotic that he says is the only treatment. So now Mitt is taking medical advice for his campaign from a donor that has no medical training? It is endemic of the modern repubs that they don’t believe science…unless faking it can be used to make a political point….what a bunch of crap…geez…

Harvesting companies…

Well….another day, another video showing the true side of ole Mitt….the latest has to do with his initial pitch to investors in Bain that blows apart his whole “I’m a job creator” meme that he has been pushing. I find this one almost as bad as the 47% video from a couple of weeks ago and in it, ole Mitt describes the methods that Bain will use to make money for these investors that include buying, managing, and then “harvesting” the companies….Mittspeak for trashing them to make huge profits and then walking away from the wreckage with millions of dollars in his pocket. This goes on to this day with Bain buying another company that is profitable (I can’t find the name of it) and has told all of the workers the company is to be moved to China with Mitt still making almost a million dollars from throwing almost 300 people out of work. Is this the kind of president this country needs? Nope, nope, nope…geez…

Just a little more Mitt…

Well…I find the recent effort by ole Mitt’s campaign to ‘humanize” him by putting out ads that says he cares about all Americans laughable and such a transparent lie that I really don’t know what they are thinking….and then they roll him out to do interviews where he is proud that 100% of children in Mass have health insurance through Romneycare…but he sees no conflict with his stated promise that he will repeal Obamacare if he is elected throwing millions of children out into the cold with healthcare. Is this guy just stupid or has he no core? I am astounded that anyone still listens to this liar…geez…

Okay…did you think I could go a whole day without ole Mitt?

Well…sitting here waiting for the Tigers game to start and read an interesting thing that ole Mitt said while talking to some small businessmen in Ohio today…while he was talking to them about his tax plan he said “don’t expect your taxes to go down much…and we are going to close some loopholes by reducing deductions for individuals..” Now, to me, this sounds just like the plan that he has adamantly said is not his tax plan…to lower taxes on the rich and taking away deductions from the middle class to pay for them. It was funny when some of the people that were interviewed after the speech started to understand that if Romney does what he promised in the speech…they will end up paying more in taxes…and they were confused that the independent analysis of ole Mitt’s plans were right…I think there may be cracks in the small business constituency that ole Mitt is depending on…and none too soon…geez…

Just a reminder…

Well…just a short one to remind people why ole Mitt is not going to reveal more detail from his economic plan…he doesn’t need to, just look back at ole GW’s plan and you will see everything that ole Mitt has to offer…tax cuts for the rich, exploding deficits, and much more income equality….let’s repeat that…tax cuts for the rich, exploding deficits, and more income equality…I should repeat it again but you get the point…geez….

No one can be this stupid…

Well…a couple of things came up in the news this morning that raises questions about how stupid ole Mitt really is…and this is such a good one…as you probably know, there was an incident on Ann Romney’s plane the other day with smoke in the cabin that forced an emergency landing…no one was hurt but poor Ann’s eyes were watering…and guess what ole Mitt’s response was? His response was to question why aircraft don’t have roll down windows so outside air can be let into the cabin…you must be laughing at this one…I know I did…let’s get a nice 500 mile an hour wind into the cabin after everything is pushed out the window by the pressure…what an ignorant idiot…there really is outside air in all aircraft cabins…it is called an air mask and they have one for every seat on the plane…oh, that’s right…the Romneys never fly commercial so they have never seen the instructions for how to use the air masks…or they let their servants listen to them…not sure which….geez…

“This is hard…”

Well…I was going to comment on this one the other day when I read about it but things got away from me and I just remembered it. After the gaffe fest that was the Romney campaign this week, and with even the right attacking the stupidity of ole Mitt, we saw the real Romneys come out in some comments made by Ann…in response to the attacks she said “this is hard..you should get out here and try this…”…and I agree, it is hard…but the tone that was in her voice just made me ill…the desperate whinings of one of the privileged that finally got a taste of life where you have to work for what you want; not have it given to you at every turn…I for one, am sick of the victim shroud that the rich repubs wrap themselves in whenever they are challenged, when one of their lessers refuses to play the role that the rich think they should. This just goes along with another statement that Ann made earlier in the campaign, that is was “their turn” to have the presidency….I can’t wait until we don’t have to listen to these folks anymore…geez…
