The Obama Lie And The Romney Railroad Retirement

via Zilla of the Resistance

Obama Attacking Romney On Railroad Retirement, The Biggest Stealth Issue Of The 2012 Election


Almost every small town is affected by this. Of course Obama will lie about it.

Screams Of My Father



On the Obama-Biden campaign’s website, the Letter of the Week is from a woman named Brittany. She writes:
Hello! My name is Brittany and I live in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania. I am 25 years old (but I will be 26 on October 3rd!). I am a registered Democrat and I have been voting since I was 18. I am one of the 47% of Americans who fall under Mitt Romney’s definition of “entitled” and “unable to take responsibility for my life.” I have Down syndrome.
There is so much that is heinous about Brittany being used for political gain in this way, but let’s start with the obvious thing, which is that neither Mitt Romney nor anybody running for office under the Republican banner is suggesting doing anything that would hurt her.

The sins of the father vs the sins of the son, etc. That a campaign can so easily get away with such a stunt is problematic, to say the least, for our country. Suggesting shame would only be met with sneers and doubling down in that order, by first the media and then the campaign. It makes one want to scream. In vain, but scream.

SHOCKER: Ohioans Really Believe Romney A Viable Human

I love to watch people swoon over polls. Just as the military made up the bulk of the beginning of the anti-war movement leading up to the Vietnam War, today's campaign professionals know a pig in a poke when they see one, polls.

Such luminaries of the polling world as the New York Times and the Washington Post have been wrong so many times as to convince watchers to bet against them every time because the odds against being right. It's easy to bet against in-kind political contributions when they are transparent lies. That local news outlets simply pass on the lies is a given, especially in these cut-and-paste days of no reporting.

In the 2012 presidential campaign these same in-kind contributions are being made again all over the country and especially so here in Ohio where The Washington Post has Obama up by 8 points. Maybe in downtown Toledo where Obama should be up by 16 points if there were any people living in downtown Toledo.

The press in its herd mentality has been reporting on Romney's "worst week" as if it were true because that is what they do to help their guy. The week was so incredibly bad for Romney that Obama needs a +10 Democrat weight in the polling to have a slight edge, but it must be reported that Obama is up by 8 so that republicans get depressed and the Romney campaign must spend more money to counteract such lies. That is campaigning here in Ohio, Romney VS Obama and his lapdog media.

How to account for the massive crowds appearing at Romney, Paul or Romney/Paul rallies here in Ohio? Simple, in this "new" campaigning, voters don't believe the media nor their polls. In short, the voter knows they are being lied to because it is the new norm which they do not like, but accept as reality. They accept that they cannot change. They cannot change that they have no longer are a part of because the voter has left the mainstream Republican and Democrat process because they see it for what it is. Fixed. The old guard wants to control Romney, but with his pick of Ryan he quietly told them, "No, thank you." Now they take pot shots at him, his campaign and what he says.

Ohio believes Romney to be a decent man and a good candidate. Ohioans really believe Romney a viable human. They also believe he can beat Obama. I know I do.

Obama's Politics Of Fear

So, first of all, let me assert my firm belief that the only thing we have to fear... is fear itself — nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terror which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance. In every dark hour of our national life a leadership of frankness and vigor has met with that understanding and support of the people themselves which is essential to victory. I am convinced that you will again give that support to leadership in these critical days. FDR

Not so now. Fear is to be embraced. As a campaign strategy, not tactic, strategy. This is so because Obama cannot run on his record. According to Obama his record is actually Bush's and he has been struggling mightily to improve that record and with another fours years he will. If a Republican gains the White House all kinds of horrible woes will happen to us as a nation including the Republican Vice President pushing old ladies off a cliff. The push is the tactic, the message is the strategy.

The strategy is necessary because the real fear of his $700 B theft from Medicare to fund ObamaCare, real unemployment numbers of well over 10% and the real economic meaning of our crushing national debt would bring his presidency crumbling down around his shoulders.

That is why the Obama campaign is already framing Paul Ryan as a demon, because Paul Ryan will discuss facts, problems and offer solutions which is what Obama fears the most.

RR, America's Comeback Team

This will be fun. Obama detests Paul Ryan because Ryan, in a polite way, has pointed out just how foolish and ignorant Obama is about governance and economics. Casually making Obama the fool may be easy, but it upsets Obama. Good.

It's a real wonk against a faux wonk. Now throw Jabbering Joe Biden in this mix and hilarity will ensue.

The Danger Of Doubling Down On Stupidity


NPR'S COKIE ROBERTS: ROMNEY POLAND TRIP RACIALLY MOTIVATED


I used to respect and enjoy Cokie's opinions. Not any more, she's been made deaf by her own dog whistle and stupid by her side's one note campaign song.

Gays, Jewish Nazis And The Democratic Party

Michael Musto, the Village Voice's longtime nightlife columnist, wrote on his blog today that the gay Republican group GOProud are like "Jewish Nazis" or "Black Klan members" because of their endorsement of Mitt Romney.


Musto writes:
So, here's to you and your bizarre contradictions, GoProud.
You're like Jewish Nazis!
Black Klan members!
Women who campaign for Rush Limbaugh
Mexican Republicans!
Roaches who moonlight as exterminators!
Blech, go away.

That is some nuance! Fit for a liberal.

In My Email

Dear friends,

There are less than 7 months until election day when the people will decide who will be the next President  of the United States . The person elected will be the president of all  Americans, not just the Democrats or the Republicans. It's time that we all  come together, Democrats and Republicans alike, in a bi-partisan effort for  America :

If you will support Mitt Romney, please drive with your  headlights ON during the day.

If you support Barack Obama, please  drive with your headlights OFF at night.

Together, we can make it happen.  Thank you!

Obama Loses Racist Youth Black & Old White Male Vote

As a commenter pointed out, Romney has already lost the youth vote because of his vanilliness. Oh, and the fact that he is old. This commenter, a paragon of political knowledge and agility, is at best a progressive who lives off the taxpayer and obviously is also the paragon of over the hill metro sexuality.



If Romney is in trouble with youth then Obama is not only in trouble with youth, but also black youth and liberal older Democrats who tend to say stupid things when ever they open their mouth, but I repeat myself. Their votes are gone!


Oh, and the young military vote. Gone!



Oh my, Obama, according to this genius is losing votes left and right and has even lost the old, thus stupid and a waste, vote.  Gone again!

To paraphrase my commenter, "forget the vote Obama... you have no chance." Of course, a statement such as this is naive and stupid, especially at this point in the election cycle, but didn't I tell you that he is a paragon of political knowledge and agility? Plus I think my commenter is a racist on multiple levels. Of course that means he a progressive at best.

Romney 48-Obama 43 With UPDATE

And this is the second daily which actually shows Romney pulling away. But.

Fools and rank amateurs have been screeching fool ass comments about this poll or that poll for weeks now. For the most part these morons don't even know what tabs are let alone know how to read them. They see an article, written by someone paid to state stupid things to gin up readership, stating this or that according to this poll or that poll and show their intelligence by saying something even more stupid than those they are quoting.

There is a difference in the way conservatives and liberals use polls. Conservatives use polls to not only gauge support or lack of support for issues, but also to test messaging. Liberals do this to a degree, but mainly use poll results, mostly skewed because they are push polls, to drive memes such as, "We're winning!" or some such nonsense.

Even political beginners know the worth of a poll that gauges yesterday's feelings. Others, not so much and they are the fools screaming the loudest. The election is more than 6 months away, but I will find great joy in continuing to identify who are the biggest fools of all.

UPDATE: Right on cue in the comments.

Game over...


Seriously, you can't make this stuff up.

NH: Con Paul and That Dog Won't Huntsman

Two losers crowing about losing.

The bottom line is that the Chomskyites won't be able to crow victory for their anti-American platform with Ron Paul (actually liberal toads) and the uber-loser Huntsman crowd (actually liberal toads with no balls) can look to further humiliation in other states is now fact.

Romney will win. That's not a total positive.

Where does that leave us? He is a good man. But is he really our candidate?

I don't know. I am afraid even in victory he may not be.

Ron Paul Fails To Win New Hampshire Straw Poll

The RonPaulian cult rEvolution was unable to upset RomneyCare in the NH straw poll of delegates to the annual meeting of the New Hampshire Republican Party. RomneyCare won over a 3 - 1 advantage as the bi-polar delegates voted in Tea Partier Jack Kimball to head the state committee.

In other NH news, they all decided to recoat the capital dome in sugar free chocolate for the health of the children.

Thompson Wins In SC IMO

Fred Dalton T was very good this evening. McCain so-so. Giuliani so-so. Huckabee less so-so. Romney stubbed his toe. Ron Paul remade himself into an Admiral Stockdale, eh?

National Review Endorses Romney

Is Harry A Morman Reid In the Wind?

I will not vote for Mitt Romney in the primaries, but I will vote for him if he gets the nomination. I'm funny that way, in that I support the primary winner in the general election instead of taking my vote and going home to whine when I don't get my way.

Take in all the drawbacks of a Romney candidacy that you will, but the unspoken one I "hear" most is the question of his Mormonism. Right or wrong, it is there.

Harry Reid is a Mormon.

Are these two men from the same planet, let alone the same church? Reid's pugnacious rope-a-dope style of defeatism is quite opposite that of Romney's bright eyed can-doism, but both men have had some success with their own style.

I think the true difference is Reid's personal agenda versus Romney's apparent style of serving the greater good. Which is an agenda of trust? Which is a style that people can trust?

More importantly, which agenda or style is one which will engender in others, say Iraqis, to trust the United States of America? This is kinda important in international relations even beyond Iraq and Afghanistan.

Looking Iraqis in the Eye

It should come as no surprise to anyone in the placid West that
ordinary Iraqis have been slow to rise in defense of their neighborhoods and to
join with the Americans in pursuing that task. They have simply been hedging
their bets. And why not? The antiwar declarations of the U.S. media, the
cultural elites, American academics and high profile Democratic Party
politicians tell them that America will abandon them.


Why would Iraqis join with the Americans, risking their necks, if
they believe the Americans will leave before the terrorists were defeated? Why
should ordinary Iraqis work with American soldiers in hunting down terrorists
when prominent Americans like John Kerry, Richard Durbin, Barack Obama, Edward Kennedy, John Murtha and Michael Moore tell them that those soldiers are as cold and as brutal as the terrorists destroying their families, and America’s most publicized civilian activist, Cindy Sheehan, is telling them that the man
leading those soldiers, George W. Bush, is the world’s biggest terrorist?


Is Mormonism our Sunni against our other Shia versions of the same religion? No, not now. There was a time when Mormons were literally hunted and killed. There was a time when Mormons hunted and killed other humans they disagreed with on religious and cultural issues. Isn't the fact that we, as a people, have evolved beyond to this newer sense of safety, an important fact when judging the differences of the people of Iraq, especially in view of the tragic history they have endured under Hussein and the current events of professional religious murderers in their midst?

I have known and worked with Mormons and I will admit their world view and their view of history seems a bit off to me, but then so do those of some other groups including some groups I would be considered a member of.

I believe Mormonism has made a positive effect on Romney. Reid? Who knows. I do know Reid is not to be trusted.

And so do the Iraqi people.
