Romney thinks it's his turn to be CEO of the country so he can run it like a business...top down for the benefit of his 'investors.' Break up the government and sell off the assets to the highest bidder. The idea of his investors in charge is very terrifying.

The next time you hear Willard LIE about Obama's out of control spending, keep this little chart in mind:

Common knowledge, you see, is suspect. It's all brainwashing.

The deficits gone up by 5 trillion, so the chart is obviously a DemocRAT LIE!!! DemocRATS have run up the debt and driven this country bankruptcy and those charts can't change that fact!!!

I cannot do right-wing nut job refudiations of facts. My grammar is passable and I have enough sense that when I see a red squiggly line under a word, I right click on it and have the spell-checker correct my spelling, when I know I'm not deliberately trying to misspell a word. :D

The President went to Des Moines after Rmoney gave a speech there and warned folks about Mitten's "cow pie of distortion".
Chicago Tribune (Kim Geiger @ LA Times) wrote:
“Now, I know Gov. Romney came to Des Moines last week, warned about a ‘prairie fire of debt,’” Obama told a crowd gathered at the Iowa State Fairgrounds. “That’s what he said. But he left out some facts. His speech was more like a cow pie of distortion.”
<snipped>
“What my opponent didn’t tell you was that federal spending since I took office has risen at the slowest pace of any president in almost 60 years,” he said. “By the way, what generally happens -- what happens is, the Republicans run up the tab, and then we're sitting there and they've left the restaurant, and then they point and – ‘Why did you order all those steaks and martinis?’”
<snipped>
Returning to the prairie fire analogy, Obama brought up the $5 trillion tax cut Romney has proposed, “which includes a 25% tax cut for nearly every millionaire in the country.” (Politifact has recently checked a similar statement, in which Obama said Romney’s tax cut would give millionaires an average tax cut of $250,000, and rated it “true.”)
<snipped>
“Five trillion dollars in new tax cuts -- that is like trying to put a fire out -- a prairie fire with some gasoline,” Obama said.

The topic of this thread is:

Mitt Romney the 2012 GOP Nominee - Bring It

Well, he brung it, but to somewhere else called "Amercia"

Seems Mittens has a "With Mitt" iPhone app out that lets ya snap a pic with a "I'm with Mitt" overlay that you can post to the intertubes.

Only they don't spell check too good. Here's the very first overlay that's available:



http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2012/05/30/r ... ty-ensues/
http://www.buzzfeed.com/zekejmiller/rom ... iphone-app

The comments on Twitter are hilarious.

The app is still in the Apple AppStore, version 1.0. I dunno when 1.01 will be released.

I went to graduate school at MIT. I was wearing a t-shirt that said "MIT" on it recently and someone came up to me and enthusiastically asked me if I was a Mitt Romney supporter. [-X

Maybe AmerCIA is rmoney's answer to AmeriCorps? RWNJs volunteering to spy on their neighbors?

Oh, right. The CCP is already doing that.

Romney's fired copy writers run into a bank and shout: "Air in the hands, Mother Stickers! This is a Fuck up!"

Tweeted from the site of Pres Obama's speech today at Cuyahoga Community College near Cleveland.
Quote:
Romney Campaign bus - emblazoned with Romney Campaign logo - is driving around Pres Obama's speech site honking its horn.


more here

More dickish behavior from the Romney campaign. They did the same thing in May when the Pres and First Lady were in Columbus. His campaign folks also trashed an Iowa diner last week. Romney called the diner owner to apologize, but she said she instead felt like he mocked her.

I hope they keep that shit up so everyone from Cuyahoga Falls to Washington Courthouse, from Mingo Junction to Miamisburg hears about it or sees it and knows that someone who hires dicks is probably a dick himself.

GOP convention delegates allege: elections fraud, rigged machines, racketeering

Posted on | June 15, 2012 | No Comments


Quote:
GOP delegates sue to be free from Romney



Don’t count your delegates before they’re hatched, Mr. Romney.

The Republican Party is being sued by over 120 GOP delegates who say campaigns have been conducted “like organized crime syndicates.”

Charges include “threats of violence,” certification of “unlawful slates of delegates,” forced “affidavits of loyalty to Romney under penalty of perjury and even altered ballot results to make sure the national convention is stacked with delegates who will vote for Romney.”

Just in time for the 40th anniversary of the Watergate scandal …

Josh Marshall thinks yesterday's Romney bus antics are part of a broader strategy against the President. I hadn't been able to quite put my finger on why they were doing this stuff and how they could possibly think this sort of thing might be effective for Romney because it seems so juvenile. Now I realize it's a dog whistle to the Obama haters that Romney is smacking down Obama. It's intended to sound loud and clear to them that Romney has zero respect for the President while going unheard by folks in the middle.

Quote:
At one level this is simply another illustration of the “bitch slap” politics which rumbles beneath so much of presidential politics. And of course emotion always plays a big role in each side’s take on the political opposition. But the animus against President Obama isn’t just tied to his positions. There’s a deeply rooted sense on the right that Obama has been protected, coddled — that no one has really taken it to him in a down and dirty way. This is what’s behind the talk that he never got ‘vetted’ back in 2008. And if you remember back in the primary debates, there was a recurring theme of which contender was the guy who could really bring the full primal scream mojo to Obama at the debates. Not so much even which guy could beat Obama but which would have the cajones (and I use that term advisedly) to hit him with the full socialist-African-terrorist-lovin’-debt-meister smackdown that would somehow just leave a shattered Obama grasping blindly for his teleprompter.

The Romney folks know that pretty much nobody — not the Republican base or really anyone else — is going to be convinced that the candidate is a down-the-line conservative. But he can appeal to them by playing the bad ass card, getting in Obama’s grill, disrespecting him. Not in highly public ways and not the candidate himself — that could be damaging. But in slightly out of the way ways, the sort of stuff that really committed political types do see.

In other words, expect to see a lot more of this. And in purely practical terms, if it can be segregated from the stuff the broad middle of the electorate sees, it’s smart politics.

Not advisedly enough to spell it correctly. (Unless of course it's about dresser drawers...)

Mittens, I sure hope I don't get a chance to know you any better. What I see of you is the entitled, notverybright but with lots of money so that's ok bully you never grew out of. I don't think you'd make a good President.

Not fair to attribute that to the Fogbow in general -- only to certain particularly anal members. :-
