Another straw man from the Marxist camp. It’s the failure, stupid.

Juan Pablo McCain bent over backwards to defend Obama and look how well that turned out for him.

Of course we know Mitt will be on the TV circuit all week decrying the “outrageous” Comments.

I am so sick of the feigned outrage that has taken over politics. Am I supposed to be “outraged?” Lol

This is such a successful Alinsky tactic for the Dems. Force your opponent to react to random third-party statements, and never be satisfied with the answer.

It puts your opponent always reacting, always on the defensive, and against Republicans, they fall into it.

Our enemy sets the playing field and the language and the GOP candidates go right along!

Also, if the Boston Globe wanted to do some real journalism they would dig up the Kenyan’s transcript and admissions data.

Romney doesn’t condemn a question, while Obama supports rapists, murderers and terrorists with words, money and arms? The woman was right, and so was Romney in not responding. It’s a losing position, even if it is true.

>> Supporter Says President ‘Should be tried for treason’

> Is that supposed to be contoversial statement, in some way?

Yeah, the word "President" is incorrect -- because it shouldn't apply to Obummer.

Did Obama ever finger wag at supporters over their incendiary comments about Bush/Cheney ?

Open Mic Catches Obama Asking Medvedev for Space on Missile Defense
March 26, 2012

"In a private conversation about the planned U.S.-led NATO missile defense system in Europe, President Barack Obama asked outgoing Russian President Dmitry Medvedev for space on the issue.

This is my last election,” Obama told Medvedev. “After my election I have more flexibility.”

“I understand. I will transmit this information to Vladimir,” Medvedev said, referring to incoming President Vladimir Putin."

http://fox8.com/2012/03/26/open-mic-catches-obama-asking-medvedev-for-space-on-missile-defense/
__________________________________________________

Obama was talking with Russian President Dmitry Medvedev when neither of them realized that their conversation was being picked up by microphones. Here is what they said:

Obama: “On all these issues, but particularly missile defense, this, this can be solved, but it’s important for him to give me space.”

Medvedev: “Yeah, I understand. I understand your message about space. Space for you ...”

Obama: “This is my last election. After my election, I have more flexibility.”

Medvedev: “I understand. I will transmit this information to Vladimir.”

“This is my last election. After my election I have more flexibility.” That statement tells us much about the president’s mindset.

The specific mention of missile defense is worrisome enough. Mr. Obama has retreated from the missile defense plan that was negotiated with European allies during the George W. Bush administration. Apparently, he is signaling Moscow that he intends to retreat further. The clear implication from the president’s comments is that he cannot tell the American people before the election what he plans to do after the election.

In addition, there is the phrase “on all these issues,” implying more is at stake than just missile defense.”

When will Barack Obama answer to hiring a Communist vandal like Shepard Fairey

Here is the 'thank you' letter Barack Obama sent to Shepard Fairey:

"Dear Shepard, I would like to thank you for using your talent in support of my campaign. The political messages involved in your work have encouraged Americans to believe they can help change the status quo. Your images have a profound effect on people, whether seen in a gallery or on a stop sign. I am privileged to be a part of your artwork and proud to have your support. I wish you continued success and creativity.

Sincerely, Barack Obama.'"

The Obama campaign is racist. The woman who asked that question is black.

I am relieved as hell when Romney didn’t say a word, because I remember how that douchebag McCain scolded one woman for calling Obama an “Arab”, and another for saying Obama “frightened” her, insanely counseling that “he is a GOOD MAN” and she would have nothing to worry about. Really? How does he feel about that statement NOW?

Well, if Romney had just flipped the bird, while acting like he’s scratching his nose as obama did in 2008, then muttered “PIE!”, the media would fall in love with him, right?

Obama set the standard and said he is not responsible for what supporters say, so Romney should remind the press that is what Obama said when James Hoffa said he was going to take the Tea Party out.

Well You are right.Romney, Congress, & both parties are run by the political elites and no matter who we elect they will be bought or extorted into the gang.

No matter what Obama did he will be on the speech giving trail earning millions when he is gone.

I reckon the truth hurts. I see no reason for Romney to call down someone who a large part of the country agrees with.

Yeah, BO and the Mooch will earn a few million, but they will spend it like rappers and professional sports stars and end up broke in no time. The Mooch has to have her bling and lobster, expensive vodka and caviar.
