They have been taking his Legitimacy away ever since his first month in office this is not surprising to the African American Community.We're still fighting for our place at the table,doubt it.Look at what they've done to voting rights since we backed an African American Presidential Candidate.We are supposed to operate the shovel not supervise its use,we don't have the Intellect.We're only 1/8 TH Human.
This GOP isn't the one I grew up with..they shame America daily and the world watches. This GOP also has dragged out the worst in those lower forms of life in American and given racist a voice, Shame on media..but then with 4-5 corporations now owning EVERY SINGLE MEDIA FORM IN AMERICA..what else can they do except elect anyone who can sign laws that they write..as Norquist stated publically. At least a few years ago they hid their truth,,Now they're shameless because idiots vote GOP back in and want to 'win" more then they love their country. These people shame us all.
I never met a Republican who could tell the truth. They use every trick in the book to try to cover up their racism. They are mean spirited and totally against women, unions, teachers, the middle class and the poor. At least 99% of them are at least a half bubble off plumb.
DAVISG - I have to correct you on your last sentence where you said "At least 99% of them are at least a half bubble off plumb".I say they are at least 10 bubbles off from being PLUMB.
At least 99% of them are at least a half bubble off plumb
99%..NAAAAAAH! It's not that high.
Sure is.
Not only is their bubble off but their optics are fogged up and their light meter doesn't work.

Mitt Romney made a kind of evasive blanket apology after the Washington Post reported recently that he was the ringleader in the bullying of a fellow student at the Michigan prep school Romney attended in the 1960s. "If I did stupid things, why, I'm afraid I've got to say sorry for it," Romney said -- while adding that he didn't remember the alleged incident and therefore couldn't take direct responsibility for it.
Here's what Romney didn't do, however: Simply admit that he was wrong.
That would take class and for all Romney's inherited and stolen ( from workers)money, Mitt has no class..It's something he nor Bush could ever buy with all their money from daddy.
ljlu, mike needs to belittle my post so he will seem to have some authority here. You can't open someones eyes and take their fingers out of their ears. Seems while he is is defending a molester and bully, and probably the crimes of gw, he wants every one who ever used an illegal drug put in jail.......Talk about becoming over crowded. Of course he is probably one of those republicans who thinks anyone not like him is inferior. LOL
Mike: I know you don't want to go on the drug use bandwagon. You should check out your story before ranting. Bush also used drugs when he was younger. And he also drank quite a bit. Lots of people experimented with drugs in America. Does that make them all bad? Marijuana is a lot safer than drinking yet drinking is legal and marijuana is not. The fact is Bush ruined our economy and the President has made progress without the help of the House and you can't stand that.
MIKE - What makes the difference between the 2 is that GEORGE jr got caught were OBAMA didn't get caught at the time.That's what makes the difference.
Poor dumb Mike Its called Openness,He confessed to doning thing as a kid and anyone who been a teenager,thought they were grown until responsibility came around and you found out that you were still a kid needing Mama and Daddy's help,He didn't deny or try to hide the fact that he's done some of the same things you've done,and I've done.However drinking and and driving will get your mug shot in the police files.The fact of the matter is that Republicans are trying to make and entire group of Americans become inferior by virtue of the racist rhetoric from the past even when the POTUS is Half White,because of his blackness he must be inferior.Not American at heart because of that Blackness.
Yesterday we found out that the necessary documentation was received to allow the president to be on the ballot in Arizona. Now we just need to get rid of our stupid sheriff. He is usually a day late and a dollar short.
At the risk of sounding crass, with regard to the Republican party, If Obama is looking for cooperation, He might try looking between C*CKS#CKER and CRONY in the dictionary. that's the ONLY place he's liable to find any.
Here's the deal--Rethugs can't come up with ANY legitimate reason not to vote for the President so they have resorted to LIES.
Rethugs are ALL LIARS now. Even the most absurd of the absurdities get one of two things from Rethugs. 1. They ignore it when they are questioned about it. Or, 2. They try to pretend it's no big deal.
Why? They are hell bent on stoking the slime of bigotry because they really have nothing to pin on the President.
Romney is the champion LIAR of them all and the Rethugs are endorsing him because of it. Imagine a liar like him dealing with the world. Romney thinks the presidency is a pot of gold that he must have. He thinks it's just a feather in his cap and something to put on his resume.
Help us God!
The republicans have made it their job to make sure that Obama will not be reelected and it started on day one.
Mike, I have decided that after this post I will not respond to any of your post again. I believe it takes a fool to argue with a fool. I know I am not a fool, so therefore that leaves you. You are indeed a sad an ignorant person. Try and find some happiness and peace within your heart.
So Mike, you identify yourself as a wealthy citizen or as the head of a corporation. Well, no wonder you don't want the President to get re-elected. You might have to pay your fair share of taxes.
On the other hand, I hope your mom and pop and gramps and grandma aren't on Social Security or Medicare because those are those terrible "socialist" programs. You and Paul Ryan and Mitt Romney won't need those "socialist" programs because you are RICH! And guess what? We don't want your money.
Mike like many republican followers doesn't know what a socialist is. One day Obama is a socialist the next day he is a communist then he is a fascist. Bet he likes those socialist highways. Obviously he doesn't want Obama re-elected because he would have to pay his fair share of taxes. Most of us understand that if you want roads, rail lines, bridges etc. you have to pay for them. in Mikes world I guess the road fairy builds the roads. People like this think they are the only people that work hard. Mike the poor and middle class are not the ones that destroyed our economy.
Mike doesn't even know what socialism is. He's in that 99% Ted was talking about being "off plumb".
Republicans all feel that they are above everyone else. They feel that lieing is acceptable, that wealth has it's special rights. They do everything in their power to obstruct the President and at the same time condemn him for their own actions. It would appear that Grover Norquist has found his person with enough didgets to work a pen. Mitt Romney!!!! Speak out against wrongs against the President, why would they, their the ones who are putting it out there.
it doesn't matter. Republicans are a brainwash group. You can tell them the truth a thousand times over and they will not believe it. its very depressing
Ed, I'd love to see you writing the commentary for the Dems regarding the nonsense aka untruths put out by the GOP!! Tell it like it is, no holds barred!
Now that I would like to see happen but good luck if it does actually happen.
Repubs should talk about the issues. Stay on topic! I do respect the fact that Repubs, as a group, pick a topic and drive it home - all the way home. Unlike Demos who are always on different playing fields and pitching different topics. When the stay-at-home mom issue came up, Demos attacked each other and Repubs talked about it for days. There are no Repubs calling this guy out today, and where is the outrage from the Demos?
It would take courage for the GOP to fight with facts, and besides these lies work, they HOPE America is as uninformed as the GOP assumes. Romney is a raider, the poster child for out sourced jobs and the cash he shameless takes out of this country. If we fail to vote Democrat and allow this, we are all damned.
The only difference in the KKK of the past and the Republican conference of today is they don't where white robes and hats.
Good one..really..It's sadly true.
What is it with you Mike??????? all you do is try and insult Ed and people who have a different view other than yours. Whose talking about killing babies. If you think for one minute that Conservative women do not get abortions than you are really a fool. When you ( not your wife) conceive and get pregnant and have a baby then you can talk about abortion. Until that time Just Shut Up.
Excuse me but you're not on SUBJECT..Can you read? or does changing the subject matter make any point at all. Read much? Your point is what exactly??
Mike, tell us who these "pro abortion" folks are. I don't know any. I know many pro choice but have never met a pro aborthion. I'm asking nice, please tell us who they are. And don't even try your democrat crap. It won't fly and is not true.
Mike--your ignorance is showing--again. The facts are these: NO ONE is FOR abortion. NO ONE! That's just another LIE spewed out by the radical right of which I assume you are and stoked by the republicans because they have identified that they can get votes if they pretend they are against legal abortions. It works for them that's why they haven't done anything to change it over the past 40 years. Without an abortion uproar, they could lose votes.
The fact is, abortion has become a political scam to get votes from ignorant people. It was not created by democrats. And no amount of claiming that one side is Pro-life, to insinuate that those who adhere to the law, are Pro-death makes it a fact.
If abortion were not legal, which it has been for 40 years, then it would be illegal. It would not disappear. Yes, it would create jobs for a huge number of criminals and back street butchers who would profit from the desperation of women who didn't impregnate themselves but who were impregnated by men. Women are not criminals and guess what? If they have a judgement to face, it won't be by you. Neither you nor any right wing religious fanatic is the judge. Or, are you claiming that now?
Mike you make no sense. Nobody is pro abortion, not even the women that have them. Funny you guys are pro life but absolutely for the death penalty. So your idea is wait until the kid can feel pain, then kill him or her. Why can't women make their own decisions. As a man I feel that until men can bear children, we should stay out of it. I'll bet that if men could have babies abortion would not only be legal, it would be mandatory. All of us love our children just as much as you do but different people have different situations. God did not leave and put you guys in charge of judging others. You guys are so self righteous it's scary.
A.BERRY - I agree with you 100,000% on your statement that we MEN shouldn't have any say so over abortions since we don't bear children.But then like I tell a lot of people that ask me whether I am for it or against it,I tell them NEITHER.It should be up to ALL women on whether or not they get an abortion or not.
The only difference in the KKK of the past and the Republican conference of today is they don't where white robes and hats.
You're dead wrong ...we still wear the robes. I've got the cutest little number in chartreuse..it's got the hood and everything. I really look HOT!!!
Jeery's a cross dresser.
Ah.... Larry
You were the one that invited me to your place an hour ago.....lol
I know you're a liberal, but I didn't know that you were THAT liberal.
If the people of this country chose politics over our democracy, this will be a very sad day. We need to spank these mouthpieces for a very. very self center elite that will do anything or say anything but govern our country for everybody!
Repubs love anything that puts Obama in a bad light. They think they'll win over some swing voters.
But lies to do it is insulting the already ignorance of too many Americans.
Ed might mention that far from repudiating remarks about our President not being "like us" and being un-American, Romney himself has made such remarks.
Here it is on MSNBC.

Romney: 'I just don't think president Obama understands America'
By NBC's Garrett Haake and Ali Weinberg
Some people display their godlessness openly and without shame. Sadly, this is what the Republican party membership has come to. Jesus said, "What has a man profited, if he gains the entire world, but loses his very soul in the process." It would seem that the Rebublican party has lost it's soul. I predict that, if they do not change the direction of their policies, they will soon become a discarded relic. The remnants of which can be packed into crates and placed in the basement of the Smithsonian Museum.
This is why in Canada they threw out republicans..and the world knows 'trickle down" helps only the wealthy and not the economy at all. llo at Europe and Greece. Once this GOP takes over media and anything else decent in America is gone. They're even taking our Post Offices..abusing power in GOP congress to kill the largest Union that never cost us a dime with lies. They'll spend this too just as they did social security They're shamless. We had better hope people vote as if our lives depend on this election, they do! Or, we'll be in Iran within a year of a romney white house.
If America hears the lie enough they buy it..YES sadly many are this stupid and to be certain the GOP will keep cutting education and acting as if to be educated is "evil"..Idiots! Vote Obama!!
The republican party is full of hate and it needs to stop; it's truly sad and disheartening; Romney is running around the country spewing nothing but lies at every turn; I pray that President Obama is re-elected; this repub party cannot be trusted because of so many reasons but more importantly they truly lack integrity and character.
Correct ED, this is their strategy. These Republicans are souless freaks who always resort to lies, obfuscation, character attacks and slander. Ironically, they are the ones who are guilty of everything they claim about Democrats. Under the guidance of K. Rove and other neocons Republicans have no shame. Dems need to be very aggressive in defending the POTUS, the facts and The American Way. Fortunately, the Dems are interested in creating a better America for ALL Americans and not just the 1%.
