Yes, another Romney problem, having an argument for a Republican Super Majority Congress, he praises being able to work with Democrats and that gives the impression they might have some good ideas when it is their Stimulus and Health Care bills that are glaring of their failed ideas and the necessity of a Republican Super-Majority Congress to reverse legislative direction.
At the WH Correspondents Dinner last night O said a couple of things not picked up by media: (1) there are numerous conspiracy theories about all the havoc I will wreck in a 2nd term... they are true (paraphrasing), and (2) some accuse me of blaming everything on my predecessor, but we have documented that my precedessor did it first {W blamed things on Bubba) (or somehting like that). Also as to Romney, they are already crediting Romneycare as their model, and for Mitt supposedly advising Bambi to do the Auto Bailout.
I personally do not think this works. It has become a joke (Blaming Bush)
No, you are completely wrong. It is because people here are tired of being attacked. I can name numerous sites that are quite enthusiastic. I suggest you pay attention to Twitter.
Alternatively, quit being an Eeyore. Gloom and negativity never won an election.
.......................Does “Mad Cow” Maddow ever give a Republican the chance to finish a sentence................
Yeah the carpet muncher has been on two weeks in a row, spewing garbage. What a fast talking, attack dog, mad lesbian. I guess DNCNBC realizes that everyone looks at that toilet-brush headed Wasserman-Shultz is just a stupid joke.
And, then later Brian Williams, he with his kneepads, tried to tell us how tense the situation room was for the 48 hours after the One had personally ordered Binnie’s raid; and was spearheading the effort to get him; and was riveted to the TV screen.
He looked like a slouched over teenager, sitting in the corner, pissed that the SS wouldn’t let him putt out before dragging his ass back to our white hut!
Miss Marple’s handy tips on how to get enthusiastic about the election:
1. Supreme Court. Bork is advising Romney.
2. Foreign policy. John Bolton is advising Romney.
3. Ann Romney. I need not explain the improvement.
4. Exploding heads on TV if we win!
5. New York Times would be depressed if we win.
6. Axelrod no longer thought of as a genius.
7. Valerie Jarrett sent back to Chicago!
8. EPA will be seriously revamped.
9. No more Hollywood parties in White House!
10. No all Obama/all the time news channels!
Look, I supported Palin but she didn’t run. Then I supported Parry and he fizzled and quit. Romney has spent a lot of time building an organization and helping candidates over the last 3 years. He actually has a plan to win, I think.
Please try to get enthusiastic about getting Obama out. We don’t always understand why things don’t work out the way we wish. If you simply cannot support Romney, then please try not to depress everyone. It isn’t helpful at all. The tea party candidates for Senate and House would be helped immensely if Romney had coattails, so think about that when you get all gloomy!
You go girl!
Yes, we need to remember the top down races.
Maybe Romney will appoint Judge Bork to the bench if someone dies or retires (one or both is likely)
Wouldn’t that be a hoot !
Who do you favor for veep?
It will be interesting to see who he picks.
Well, Dubya did not blame things on Bubba, No. 1.
He was and is a nice guy.
Many think too nice.
I definitely do not appreciate the popular Bush bashing that occurs here too often.
I've kind of figured that was the case. I heard Rush say that Axelrod was. I think he's wrong on that one.
Amen, sister.
I keep telling people here that Obama and his nasty little crew of minions will be trashing Romney non-stop from here on out.
They will stop at nothing.
We do NOT need to help them by whining about Romney ourselves.
Slay the nation on CBS had democrat Gov. Moonbeam Brown from California on. Given the fact that the state is a train wreck and heading down the canyon and Moonbeam is pushing it along, I was hoping that he might get some questions on it. Instead it was love-fest between the two doddering old farts, Sieffert and Brown. I have never seen such puff-questions. “What do you think of the extremist Republicans” was the toughest one. That Sieffert has got to go. He never was any good and he is long past it.

MEMO FOR THE RECORD Apr. 29, 2011, 10:35 a.m.
Received phone call from Tom Donilon who stated that the President made a decision with regard to AC1 [Abbottabad Compound 1]. The decision is to proceed with the assault. The timing, operational decision making and control are in Admiral McRaven’s hands. The approval is provided on the risk profile presented to the President. Any additional risks are to be brought back to the President for his consideration. The direction is to go in and get bin Laden and if he is not there, to get out. Those instructions were conveyed to Admiral McRaven at approximately 10:45 am.
Now compare President Obama's handling of this moment in US History to that of then General Eisenhower on the day before D-Day (in case of failure). A digital copy of the message is below.

Here is what the message said if you cannot read President Eisenhower's writing.
"Our landings in the Cherbourg-Havre area have failed to gain a satisfactory foothold and I have withdrawn the troops. My decision to attack at this time and place was based upon the best information available. The troops, the air and the Navy did all that Bravery and devotion to duty could do. If any blame or fault attaches to the attempt it is mine alone."
Below is a FreeRepublic Discussion of President Eisenhower's in case of failure message:

President Obama’s leadership seems shallow and cowardly compared to that of a REAL AMERICAN GENERAL who was fighting for America's Interests and therefore, the Free World's Interests. (The deal between FDR, another progressive, and Stalin aside).
Obama's snide, mean, shallow, immature, stupid comments and behavior soil the Presidency. Too bad Obama is so stupid he doesn't realize his idiocy making it impossible for him to improve.
President Obama needs some learning in the ways of true leadership, true courage, true class, true bravery, true honor, true humility and true humbleness. The comparison of then General Eisenhower behavior and President Obama's behavior (taking all the credit, going on TV and talking up a storm BEFORE all the facts were known) is an example of this. Obama's talking about this being such a tough decision makes We the People ill. Eisenhower's decision to go forward with Overlord (D-Day for the imbeciles in the White House) was a tough decision. NOT getting Bin Laden. THAT decision was made in the prior Presidency. Obama just had to follow through.
Hey, I did not say W bashed anyone. Your/Our/My president said it from his own lying mouth.
Right. Axelrod and Rahm had to leave The witch troika is still ensconced in power (Iranian born Valerie and the 2 Chi-town Robinson gals who paled arounf with Farakhaon clan)
Scary scenarios there cheerio. I hope you are wrong on both counts.
I knew what you meant. Anyone who thinks we should not get this guy out of the White House should go watch that White House Correspondents dinner performance of his.
Nasty, vulgar, mean-spirited, and in your face. He’s a thug, pure and simple.
I am working on Twitter at reminding some of the reporters how nicely the Bush administration treated them. Also I remind them that they are in the same country as the rest of us, and that their children are also going to suffer.
Probably won’t work on most of them, but I think a few might be having second thoughts.
Was Brian calling in from NASCAR headquarters?
Amen! I’m so glad you’re still coming to this thread!
