THROUGH ALL THE flip-flops, there has been one consistency in the campaign of Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney: a contempt for the electorate.


<How else to explain his refusal to disclose essential information? Defying recent bipartisan tradition, he failed to release the names of his bundlers — the high rollers who collected hundreds of thousands of dollars in donations. He never provided sufficient tax returns to show voters how he became rich.>

< He was a friend of immigrants, then a scourge of immigrants, then again a friend. He was a Kissingerian foreign policy realist, then a McCain-like hawk, then a purveyor of peace. He pioneered Obamacare, he detested Obamacare, then he found elements in it to cherish. Assault weapons were bad, then good. Abortion was okay, then bad. Climate change was an urgent problem; then, not so much. Hurricane cleanup was a job for the states, until it was once again a job for the feds.>

Yeah and President Obama is a muslim who has eaten dogs and wouldn't release ANY of his info (what's he hiding). </sarcasm>

Really, why not just repost some handbills they were passing out on the street? This is just lame election season political advert. As moronic as when Beck's publications or some other rag does it.

Maybe you missed this part of the post. What part do you take exception to?


He was a friend of immigrants,

then a scourge of immigrants, then again a friend.

He was a Kissingerian foreign policy realist, then a McCain-like hawk, then a purveyor of peace.

He pioneered Obamacare, he detested Obamacare, then he found elements in it to cherish.

Assault weapons were bad, then good.

Abortion was okay, then bad.

Climate change was an urgent problem; then, not so much.


Hurricane cleanup was a job for the states until it was once again a job for the feds.
 
We know for a fact what he thinks of 47% of the electorate.
 
I didn't miss your political advert, just dismissed it as I do virtually all of them. All of your silly bulletpoints have been and are being discussed in various threads ad infinitum. This is just more political spam for your chosen candidate.

What is wrong with being Muslim? You speak as if all Muslims are evil.

Yet you responded to it.Twice.amazing.:lamo
 
I find it somewhat ironic that all the endorsements of Obama are along the lines of he disappointed the hell out of us but at least he is not Romney.

It's called desparation to get elected, not what I can do better to help the country.
 
Gosh, what's the President doing today to help the country?

That's because you made this up. It's another rightwing meme. My only disappointment with Obama is that he didn't attack the subliterate Tea Party Occuped Congress more. But you can't do everything while killing Bin Laden, passing health care reform and preventing the Bush Meltdown from destroying western civilization as we know it.
 
The Wapo comment is spot on. Simply put, Romney thinks he can say absolutely anything and get away with it. Thank God he's not going to this time.

Having a pigheaded, ideologue narcisstic ego maniac who can't adjust or modify anything like Obama after one like Bush hasn't been working out.

It is Romney's flexibility that is his strongest characteristic. He can actually get something done. Obama can't. He's too big on himself.
 
Didn't the Washington Post used to be a newspaper?
 
For me, the perfect moment of the campaign was Meat Loaf singing AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL either totally plastered out of his mind or with his voice totally shot in Defiance Ohio as other singes from Alabama and Big & Rich also joined in. It may be the worst most awkward I have ever seen Mittens on stage.

And hate to say that because Meat Loaf and his Jim Steinman tunes are among my favorites of all time.

Well...some of it is. Did you happen to read this part? Not exactly a vote of confidence for Obama from one of his biggest cheerleaders. That's the best they can say after backing him for 4 years? This opinion piece is similar to Obama's campaign. Attack, attack, attack because he can't run on his record.
**********************************************************************************
Within limits, all candidates say and do what they have to say and do to win. Mr. Obama also has dodged serious interviews and news conferences. He has offered few specifics for a second-term agenda. He, too, aired commercials that distorted his opponent’s statements.

But Mr. Obama has a record; voters know his priorities. His budget plan is inadequate, but it wouldn’t make things worse.

It's priceless. Meatloaf and Romney, a match made in musical heaven.

In other words, after 4 more years you will still be hoping for change, but vote for him anyway.....

It would be nice if they and their journ-O-lists would sum up the last four years of Obama failure, and ask a few pointed questions related to Benghazi. Instead their excitement for Obama has made Lewinsky's blue GAP dress white.


But, I guess it's something for the Lefties in their moment of desperation, so they can get some relief doing the doo-whack-a-doo they do so well.

Come Tuesday... you will have a new game. Obama will be on his way out, and America will hopefully have a House, Senate and President ready to gut the pig called the federal government. First up... CommiKare a'la Obama. Then you can all squeal like pigs... we'll be waiting for it... and laughing as some sense of sanity is restored after 4-years of Marx Jr.

Like Mitt said, if only he were a Mexican he would win the election.

Does this guy have a check list of groups he feels the need to insult?
