Okay, so you want ME to prove that:

1. Mitt Romney did not “attack” or “hurt” Sarah Palin’s “little children” (as Diogenesis has posted multiple times);

2. Mitt Romney really meant “promise them anything” during the campaign phone bank fund raising (as Diogenesis has posted multiple times and keeps posting); and

3. That Mitt Romney really “claimed himself President” (yes, that's another lie Diogenesis has posted multiple times — he stopped posting that after I called it him on it).

If you can't see the OBVIOUS answer to these, then I can't help you. You have to think and help yourself. Oh, by the way, I'm an adult woman, not a little girl, and have been able to see this. Why does one have to prove a very, very obvious lie?

I've answered your question PERSONALLY to you just two days ago about the “promise them anything,” and yet you want me to answer it again. Why?

If you want to read smearmongering and want to hang out with people on FR who smearmonger, go right ahead. But, I will keep pointing it out.

LIEING is WRONG and SMEARING is WRONG and perpetuating misinformation is WRONG. This is not about Mitt Romney, it's about doing this to ANYONE. This is not what should be done on FR. One has to take responsibility for what they post.

GOP_Lady "Okay, so you want ME to prove that: 1. Mitt Romney did not “attack” or “hurt” Sarah Palin’s “little children” (as Diogenesis has posted multiple times);

The liar GOP_Lady knows that the URLs did show Team Romney savaged Gov. Palin
through the night of Election2008 (RomneyBOTs here, too).

"Peeking Out From the McCain Wreckage: Mitt Romney"

"Someone's got to say it: IS MITT ROMNEY RESPONSIBLE FOR OBAMA'S VICTORY?"

"Vanity: Team Romney Sabotaged Palin and Continuing to Do So?"

"Romney Supporters Trashing Palin"

"Romney advisors sniping at Palin?"


That abuse of Gov. Palin by TeamROMNEY HAD to have
an impact on the Governor's children, all of them.

It is interesting that Romney's abuse of his dog Seamus was also minimized.
And that is just one example

"But the details of the event are more than unseemly — they may, in fact, be illegal.
Massachusetts's animal cruelty laws specifically prohibit anyone
from carrying an animal "in or upon a vehicle, or otherwise, in an unnecessarily cruel
or inhuman manner or in a way and manner which might endanger the
animal carried thereon.
" An officer for the Massachusetts Society
for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals responded to a description of the situation
saying "it's definitely something I'd want to check out." The officer,
Nadia Branca, declined to give a definitive opinion on whether Romney broke the law
but did note that it's against state law to have a dog in an open bed of a pick-up truck,
and "if the dog was being carried in a way that endangers it, that would be illegal."


"Dog on Roof? What Was It Like for Romney's Pooch?
Scientists Say Dog Likely Experienced Wind-Whipped, Uncomfortable Trip
"Before beginning the drive, Mitt Romney put Seamus, the family's hulking Irish setter,
in a dog carrier and attached it to the station wagon's roof rack.
e'd built a windshield for the carrier, to make the ride more comfortable for the dog," read the article.
Jordan Kaplan, the owner of Petaholics, a dog walking service in New York City,
and a lifelong dog owner and dog lover, said Romney's actions were uncalled for.
....What Happens to a Dog on a Roof Traveling 50 MPH?"


"Romney's dog - This is a distinction Mitt Romney probably could do without, but he is surely
the first presidential candidate to be attacked for putting a dog with diarrhea
in a carrier and tying it to the top of a station wagon.
Romney's defense: Seamus liked it. "He scrambled up there every time we went on trips,"
the Republican said during a campaign stop in Pittsburgh. "He got in all by himself and enjoyed it."


"As the oldest son, Tagg Romney commandeered the way-back of the wagon,
keeping his eyes fixed out the rear window, where he glimpsed the first sign of trouble.
''Dad!'' he yelled. ''Gross!'' A brown liquid was dripping down the back window,
payback from an Irish setter who'd been riding on the roof in the wind for hours.
As the rest of the boys joined in the howls of disgust,
Romney coolly pulled off the highway and into a service station.
There, he borrowed a hose, washed down Seamus and the car,
then hopped back onto the highway."


"Story about dog on car roof comes back to bite Romney
Critics, jokesters make issue of tale
TIME.com's Swampland blog has been flooded with more than 200 comments
from readers complaining of animal cruelty"


Romney's bad behavior Exposed by Seamus

"Romney Loses Nomination Over Dog Abuse?
Romney was traveling that summer with his wife, five sons, and Seamus to his parent's cottage on Lake Huron.
But hours into the ride, Seamus apparently suffered diarrhea,
which ran down the back window of the car. Romney's sons, all under 13, howled in disgust.
Romney pulled off the road into a service station.
There, he borrowed a hose, washed down Seamus and the car, and they drove on to Ontario.
.....David Kravitz wrote on BlueMassGroup, a liberal blog.
"It also strikes me as classic Romney: it solves a problem efficiently,
in a business-like manner, and with no regard whatsoever
for the suffering that the solution may cause."


GOP_Lady "2. Mitt Romney really meant “promise them anything”
during the campaign phone bank fund raising (as Diogenesis has posted multiple times and keeps posting); and "

GOP_Lady used to say this was "no big deal" (see original thread).
Now despite the whining, the FACTS are shown by video, FR thread, and ABC audio tape.

RINO Chameleon carpetbagger socialist Mitt Romney: “Make all the promises you have to...


GOP_Lady "3. That Mitt Romney really “claimed himself President”
(yes, that's another lie Diogenesis has posted multiple times — he stopped posting that after I called it him on it).

FACT: As noted, Romney is NOT listed as Governor (which he is not anymore) or Bishop, but as President. Note also, that Sen. McCain and Sen. Obama are listed as ... Senator.

GOP_Lady "LIEING (sic) is WRONG and SMEARING is WRONG and perpetuating misinformation is WRONG"

Then GOP_Lady should not do it.

Yes, as a matter of fact, I DO want you to prove those things. When I say that Romney supporters are lying when they claim Rush and Michael Reagan "endorsed" Romney, I have info to PROVE it.

No, I can't see the "OBVIOUS" answer to those items you mention, and only the most inconsiderate of writers (when you post to FR, you are a writer) assumes such in readers. As a writer, it's your job to provide those answers.

If the answers are so obvious ... why is it so difficult for you to, dozens of times if need be in dozens of posts if need be, clearly state them?

I can only conclude that it is a) because the answers aren't obvious or even existant and/or b) you're too lazy to do the writing work it requires to convey your ideas. Instead, you put it on everyone else and have the gumption to blame everyone else when they don't just magically see the same things you see. If you want to be understood, then you have to communicate clearly. You are either too lazy lack the clarity of thought to do so.

You may be a grown woman, but you act like a little girl when you stamp your foot and demand that other people just take you on your word that you're right and they're wrong. You are the one who is not taking responsiblity for what you post.

Since you have seen the video you should link us to it.
