what do you expect the pathological liar, mittens, to say...i do believe that folks should be constantly asking the republicans "where are the jobs" boner? yes, it really is boner, not baynor...can't blame his family for pronouncing their name incorrectly :)
Pathological Liar - You must have meant Obama...
Let's examine some facts and Presidential career highlights about our illustrious but come November (January 20 actually) former Commander in Chief...
Solyndra - The Obama Administration squanders half a billion dollars ($535 million) on a now defunct solar company.
Fisker - The Obama Administration approves a $529 million loan (they only receive $193 million) to a company from Finland (really Finland?) to build a $100,000 "green" vehicle that doesn't work.
Fast and Furious - Eric Holder and Obama are purposely for political reasons hiding something and the nation knows it. These chickens will come home to roost.
President's hit list - used to bolster his image as a strong leader, both Republicans and Democrats alike denounce the release of sensitive information that might endanger the lives of US intelligence assets.
Though supposedly a constitutional scholar, Obama says he doesn't think the Supreme Court will take the unprecedented action of overturning legislation enacted by Congress. Their role is to determine the constitutionality of legislation and if necessary overturn it.
Gas prices for regular gas have increased from $1.84 per gallon when Obama took office to $3.51 national average in June 2012.
Obama talked over the British National Anthem saying he thought it was background music for his speech.
Let's not forget his famous statements about "spreading the wealth around" and that if his daughter made a mistake he didn't want her to be "punished with a baby." Since when is the gift of life punishment? Since when is other people's hard earned wealth his to spread around?
Tax Cheats - There are 36 Obama aides that owe a combined $830,000 in back taxes.
Timothy Geitner - who heads the Treasury Department owed $42,000 in taxes and penalties.
Were you aware that President Obama said he had visited 57 states in his 2008 Presidential campaign?
In 2011, President Obama said he gave a Congressional Medal of Honor to Jared Monti who wasn't receiving it posthumously, he had died in 2006.
Though he swore to protect and defend the US Constitution Obama criticized American citizens for "clinging to their guns and religion" when these rights are specifically guaranteed to us by the US Constitution.
Obama takes credit for killing Bin Laden, but would not have been able to do so without intelligence gained through means that he denounced as torture, and sought to have intelligence officers prosecuted for obtaining.
Obama dramatically exaggerated the number of fatalities that resulted from tornadoes in Kansas saying 10,000 people had died when in fact there were twelve.
During his campaign, among other things he didn't deliver on, he promised to cut the deficit in half - The federal deficit has increased by over $5 trillion in just over three years under Obama.
President Obama has the worst jobs performance of any president on record.
These are all well documented for anyone who wants to come out from his cloud of denial and do a little Google research.
November can't get here soon enough.
It will not matter what bo says, its what the Rep. say about what bo says. He needs to say the truth over and over and over...and msnbc needs to repeat it over and over...Rep. have been doing this for 40 years...when will we ever learn!!!!!!
MR.President the Whole army came out but they got nothing on you.Christie remember you choose not to help your own community by not accepting the money. You people just hate the president but he will prevail.
sorry- obama is toast- 1. he said he will cut he debt in half- he added 3 trillionHe said he would have cameras on CNN so you could see how they vote- REALLY would have loved to see the obama care vote on CNN- arm twisting and bags of money obama paid the dems to vote for it. He said no more line items in the budget-lie-NOT ONE vote for his budget- first time in history a president dd not get ONE vote by anyone for his plan-and he says he has one???
Every time Mittless opens his mouth it is worse for all Americans. His entire working life he has had short arms and long pockets. He created casualties to fill his pockets. Interesting way of creating jobs. He's a puppet and McConnell is pulling his strings.
Romney hates the public sector. shame on him and them.
AT LAST!
A TRUE REPRESENTATION OF TODAY’S REPUBLICAN PARTY.
IT ADDRESSES THE NRA, IMMIGRATION, MINORITIES, THEIR DIRECTION FOR THE COUNTRY, AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, THEIR ELECTORATE.
FOR US ‘CRYING LIBERALS’ YOU WILL IMMEDIATELY UNDERSTAND THE VALUE OF THIS PRESENTATION, ESPECIALLY AT THE END…YOU MAY ACTUALLY CRY!
SO PLEASE, ALL WHO SEE THIS POST, WATCH.
THIS WILL BE POSTED MULTIPLE TIMES TO REACH AS MANY AS POSSIBLE.
FEEL FREE TO SHARE WITH OTHERS, SPREAD THE WORD!
well mitt romney has no pride or honor he is a weak and sorry man that can LIE and not be ashame or what he say.
One term governor of Massachusetts Romney apparently doesn't believe firefighters, police and teachers are Americans because he responded today by saying Americans don't want to hire them....but they are also Americans, it was horrible double speak to gain sound bite attention, an unpaid negative political moment.
Mitt-where are your tax returns?
Juliewriter-this wasn't double speak he let it slip as to what is real agenda will be with regard to public employees.
why do you hate people that are rich?? did a poor person ever hire anyone? If Apple, Microsoft, Sun Micro, and G.E. said- OK we are done , we quit, millions of people lose jobs- is that OK with you??? All the companies that Bain Capital invested in saved jobs and created more jobs. Staples, sports authority pizza hut and many more. Many could not be saved and Baine lost millions
LOL
thanks for the laugh this morning over coffee.
It is very hard to understand how these ordinary Republicans, the 99er's like the rest of us, can believe that billionaires are giving millions to Romney because they like him. They can't stand him either. They are buying our Democracy, our country to do what ever they want to it.
Deregulating is not only going to destroy clean air and water it is really going to cost businesses more in lost job time due to accidents.
doesent these Idiotic Republicans know the Job theyre holding is a government job.so lets get ready of them and put the Teachers ,Police Officers ,Firefighters Construction workers back to work ,because we really dont need Idiots like the Repubs in Congress or as State Gov..Idiots
President Obama---It's time to let Barry out, These Repub-Thugs have crossed the line---John McCain is probably the source of all the leaks himself.
Doesn't that fat head just burn you, Rachael. He always has his comment. He forgets we know him as the loser.
Yeah, He does TM, But just like 2008, Barry is gonna make him eat all his nasty vile remarks all over again. These Guys haven't learned yet, Don't under estimate President Obama.
HI Rachael and TM. See i think there's a mole and it has to do with a bill either coming up or all ready voted on . The Indefinite detention bill. I am glad he came out strong on this and you can bet its a Re Pub behind it another scheme to make him look bad. I am amazed that McCain would make statement like that. This is national security and for anyone to use this as political issue is to betray us all!
Hey Pam---you are so right, Repub-thugs like to play dirty,- President Obama plays it smart.
Obama is smart??? He said there were 57 states. He said Marine CORPS with a P, he is a clown.
Really don't understand how ordinary Republicans, the 99er's like the rest of us, can be dumb enough to think billionaires are giving millions to Romney because they like him. They can't stand him any more then we can. They are buying our Democracy our country.
EASYNAN - They might not personally care for him but if he does get elected,look at all the TAX BREAKS they will be getting from it.
They are now making accusations that Obama leaked secret information! WOW is this what they call trickle down...out. Its just another liberal trick! follow the cow pies to the source of the so called leak.
But guess what's no secret Obama has terminated more threats than Cheney' lawyer has buckshot in his face!
And here you go, that little misstep from President Obama gave us a chance to see that the national Republican Party has turned into a party of jackasses. Didn't you guys catch Romney stepping on his own message when he brought up Wisconsin? How the hell does he think we don't need more police officers, teachers, firefighters, etc? Our country is lagging in math and science on the world stage, big cities are still grappling with gangs and in some cases growing murder rates, and there's always a fire that needs to be fought with some lives saved along the way, and Romney actually thinks we don't need those types of workers? Give me a damn break. But here you go folks, when Republicans talk about "government waste", they are not talking about the nameless bureaucrat working in a redundant government agency. They are talking about the teachers who teach your kids; the firefighters who try to keep your home from burning down if it catches fire, and depending on your city provides paramedic services if they arrive to you before the departments' actual paramedic unit does; and the police officers who work hard to protect you from violent crime and arrest those who are caught not only doing that crime but theft and property damage crimes. So when they get out there thumping their chests about eliminating waste, stop just accepting that they mean governmental redundancies and start grilling them about exactly who and what they mean. And Chris Matthews I like your show but sometimes you over-analyze. Republicans may count on the populace being stupid, but when you give them the info they have a knack for getting it right.
And to clarify on what I was speaking of on Matthews, because the edit timer was ticking down on me and I had that thought after posting my original comment, I was watching Hardball earlier and Chris Matthews was harping on the private sector doing fine slip to the point of the President has to dumb himself down to the American people. Now granted that statement can be spun out of context by Republicans and they already fell over themselves doing it, but the media as a whole has to stop pretending that the Republican Party of today is the same Republican Party of Ronald Reagan's day in that in Reagan's time you may have disagreed with each other's politics but it was accepted you were acting out of love of country and respected each other for that and in that vein you were able to come together with what you had in common as a starting point and hash out an agreement that had as many things in it that both sides would go for. When a bill fails due to another damn filibuster, how about not just painting it as just a classic Democrat can't agree with Republican scenario. Point out that Republicans are not acting on principle given that the bill may have and involve issues that they supported as late as George W. Bush's second term. Point out they are not acting on principle but instead using the filibuster to run out the clock as evidenced by bills that finally make it past a filibuster only to get passed not only by a majority but by a unanimous vote. Do start telling the Republican majority campaigned on jobs and said jobs would be top priority yet there have been more bills passed dealing with abortion than there have been anything even approaching jobs. Do tell how the President proposed a jobs bill in September, the Republican House won't even bring it up for a damned vote. Do report on how even though the mantra is jobs, jobs, jobs we don't hear a peep out of House Majority Leader Cantor on the subject or anything else except when a jobs report comes out the first Friday of each month. Do report that although the business community makes the claim that they are sitting on $2 trillion dollars in cash and won't invest it in hiring because of uncertainty of what the tax code will be, i.e. uncertainty of if the Bush tax cuts go by by, they have been sitting on that cash since at least the time the stimulus package went into effect with them seeing record profits with those very tax cuts in effect still and not to actually expire until end of the day Dec. 31, 2010. So the whole uncertainty argument on that front is bogus since if you count the one year extension of the tax cuts, they've had three years tax policy certainty under Obama.
JaJuan: You might want to read the article on my profile page called Corporate World Takeover. I wrote it a while back...feel free to vote/comment too.
Billionaires are not giving Romney millions because they like him. They can't tand him either, they are buying our Democracy, our country.
Amen to that
Perhaps those worthless Republican can get their hands out of their butts and do what the people have voted them in office to do. These Republican won't do a da.. thing except run this country so far in the ground until it will be hard for anyone to get up. This nonsense needs to stop. I am so sick of the Republican party until I want to puke. Romney is a great lier and any one with half a brain should see that any time you ask him a question he laughts it off, this is a sign of a first class lier. These bunch of Republicans are the worst I've ever seen, they are really bent on tear this country apart and not bringing us together. People open your eyes and your minds and do the right thing.
Romney's comments were worse. First of all the Presidents comments were taken out of context and Romney was railing against the hiring of school teachers, firemen, and police officers because you know they are the bad people and problem this country has.
Seriously, when was it bad to have cops, firemen and teachers on the payroll of the cities and states?
- Come on, Rupublicans, stop play INNOCENT! President Obama refered "Private Sector" such as Bain, GE, Oil companies, and Wall Street, ... Of course they are doing fine, they have 13 trillion dollars CASH made in the last decade, however, they must reinvest an amount to help the nation economy! If they are not doing fine, why they rewarded their executives hundred of million of dollars! Small private sector owners such as Ron Johnson company in Wisconsin received 5 million dollars from government, Michell Bachmann's husbamd company received $30,000.00 dollars, ... The sad part of the story is the more the owners of private sectors earned the more they kept! instead of reinvest a small amount to help the country economy! The more tax brake they got, the more beach houses, cadillacs and under ground garage with car elevator they have!
Since the Republicans are so against Government jobs, I would suggest that we begin by cutting the jobs from each Representative and Senator who takes a five month paid vacation. Since their pay comes from the tax dollars we the middle class pay, I would suggest this is a frivolous waste of tax-payer monies. Let us cut those Government jobs first.
As a substitute teacher I see the overcrowded classrooms and those students that do not have their own books to take home to study from. We wonder why our schools are failing to teach the students. It is not the schools, it is the government that would rather give tax breaks to people that do not need them and have not produced jobs in the years they began receiving those tax cuts under Bush, to now where the Republicans are complaining that the President has not done enough to provide jobs for the people. I would beg to differ. It is those job providers that have been given the breaks to produce jobs that are not doing their part.
My Senator and Representatives do not represent me. They are out beating the drums over their own radical agendas and special interest. Every time I contact one of them, if I receive a reply, it is the same form letter over and over. Nothing ever changes. At least the President represents the people. He cares enough to get a sampling of his correspondences and answer. Why are we paying these other individuals to go to Washington. If I ever did a job the way they do, I would not have been employed very long.
Actually it's been the House that's been on constant vacation. For all his faults, Harry Reid actually has had the Senate in session trying to work, and I say trying because of all those damned Republican filibusters keeping things from getting done.
Then after over 1,000 days, let them SUBMIT a BUDGET ALREADY!!!
Funny when President Obama submitted HIS BUDGET, he did not get a SINGLE vote from the DEMOCRATIC PARTY!!!
Dude that is old news. And the reason he didn't get votes is because they missed that detail that the budget you were referring to was him maneuvering the Republicans into showing their hand. He has since submitted several proposals since that one which are online for viewing. Do keep up will you?
As for what you're trying to say is his 2013 budget getting shot down, that wasn't even Obama's entire budget proposal. It was Congressman Mick Mulvaney of South Carolina doing selective editing and pulling numbers from what Obama presented and trying to pass that off as the President's whole budget. So of course the Dems voted it down. Nice try though.
