Anyone who is in bed with Netanyahu right now should not even be allowed to run for any office, especially POTUS.
Romney should be immediately kicked out of the presidential race and replaced.
He's a traitor, terrorist, and gobal security risk.
Romney should be arrested .......

Most politicians are unrepentant liars, but some more than others. Mitt is on the "more" end of the scale.
He spent a bunch of time during, and right after, the primaries huffing and puffing to try and establish his "conservative" credentials. Now that it is clear he can't win because the vast majority of sensible people won't buy into extremist bullsh*t, he is back tracking. I can understand why Obama didn't recognize him.
Today he said his 47% remark was wrong. But you know he meant it. He defended it initially. It is a very clear indication of how he views the country. Romulous is now saying all sorts of "moderate" things he doesn't mean because he has no class, no backbone and no real convictions. He would throw anyone under the bus in a heartbeat to get what he wants.

For Mr. Potato Head:
Romney Told 27 Lies In 38 Minutes
By Igor Volsky on Oct 4, 2012 at 9:08 am
http://thinkprogress.org/politics/2012/10/04/958801/at-last-nights-debate-romney-told-27-myths-in-38-minutes/
Pundits from both sides of the aisle have lauded Mitt Romney’s strong debate performance, praising his preparedness and ability to challenge President Obama’s policies and accomplishments. But Romney only accomplished this goal by repeatedly misleading viewers. He spoke for 38 minutes of the 90 minute debate and told at least 27 myths:
1) “[G]et us energy independent, North American energy independent. That creates about 4 million jobs”. Romney’s plan for “energy independence” actually relies heavily on a study that assumes the U.S. continues with fuel efficiency standards set by the Obama administration. For instance, he uses Citigroup research based off the assumption that “‘the United States will continue with strict fuel economy standards that will lower its oil demand.” Since he promises to undo the Obama administration’s new fuel efficiency standards, he would cut oil consumption savings of 2 million barrels per day by 2025.
2) “I don’t have a $5 trillion tax cut. I don’t have a tax cut of a scale that you’re talking about.” A Tax Policy Center analysis of Romney’s proposal for a 20 percent across-the-board tax cut in all federal income tax rates, eliminating the Alternative Minimum Tax, eliminating the estate tax and other tax reductions, would reduce federal revenue $480 billion in 2015. This amounts to $5 trillion over the decade.
3) “My view is that we ought to provide tax relief to people in the middle class. But I’m not going to reduce the share of taxes paid by high-income people.” If Romney hopes to provide tax relief to the middle class, then his $5 trillion tax cut would add to the deficit. There are not enough deductions in the tax code that primarily benefit rich people to make his math work.
4) “My — my number-one principal is, there will be no tax cut that adds to the deficit. I want to underline that: no tax cut that adds to the deficit.” As the Tax Policy Center concluded, Romney’s plan can’t both exempt middle class families from tax cuts and remain revenue neutral. “He’s promised all these things and he can’t do them all. In order for him to cover the cost of his tax cut without adding to the deficit, he’d have to find a way to raise taxes on middle income people or people making less than $200,000 a year,” the Center found.

Stahlbro, they are EQUAL in lies stated during the debate. This is clearly a lesser evil choice coming up. And whomever gets it will more than likely have a new war on their hands. obmam has shown a tendency towards muslims - an undeniable fact.
edit : Doc,, obama lied just as much - see my link upthread.

Everyone likes to talk about some kind of October surprise. I just paid 4.65 a gallon for regular unleaded. Up 30 cents overnight. I was talking to the station owner and I asked if it was going up again tonight and he answered, yup, sure is. Maybe we'll be seeing 5 bucks a gallon by election time.
