I noticed they missed this whopper:

I believe our democracy is stronger when the President acts with the support of Congress. And I believe that America acts more effectively abroad when we stand together.

This is especially true after a decade that put more and more war-making power in the hands of the President, and more and more burdens on the shoulders of our troops, while sidelining the people’s representatives from the critical decisions about when we use force.

obomber is the only president in the last decade not to go to congress for use of force(libya). Bush got congress' approval for the afghan and iraq wars.

It really gets under my skin to keep hearing the Democrats call our nation a democracy. We're a republic - a democratic republic, but a republic nonetheless. The guy that was ousted in Colorado called us a democracy too.
