“Nobody accused Mr. Romney of being a felon,” President Obama said during a rare conversation with the White House press corps today.

Obama was defending his campaign from charges that he is being too negative. “We point out sharp differences between the candidates, but we don’t go out of bounds,” he added.

Obama’s campaign spokeswoman raised the possibility that Romney committed a felony on documents pertaining to his career at Bain Capital.

how dare that idiot have the right to ask anyone for any papers when he is hiding his whole life in hawaii. The governor from hawaii should be tarred and feathered along with barry . The governor and his lawyers are getting our money for protecting this imposter. all of them are nothing but greedy filthy crooks.

If you tell everyone that someone did not pay his taxes for 10 years, then you are pointing to that person as a felon because if you are rich and don't pay your taxes you will be put into a federal prison. That is why that statement is so frivilous you got to laugh your ass off at the desperation of the Obama camp.

The Cutter chick accused him in just about every way she could without trying to tattoo it on his forehead and that Bauer bozo was right behind her with the same accusations. When are people going to see that Obama doesn't just lie, he supports those that also lie.

so did his loyal supporters. I am ashamed of the democrats of this term. I had always been a democrat until listening to barry on his campain trail and changed to the republican party. and happy I did it. this kenyan has destroyed our country. It made me sick seeing him bowing to the chinese leader. Of course he did because now he has us under control of china. Our dolloars will be worthless in a few years because of this idiot. The yuan will be the money.

"In July, Stephanie Cutter, Obama’s deputy campaign spokeswoman, explained, “Either Mitt Romney, through his own words and his own signature, was misrepresenting his position at Bain to the SEC, which is a felony, or he was misrepresenting his position at Bain to the American people to avoid responsibility for some of the consequences of his investments.” That sure sounds like an accusation of a felony.
Or how about Harry Reid, who suggested that Mitt Romney hadn’t paid taxes for ten years? “The burden should be on him,” said Reid. “He’s the one I’ve alleged has not paid any taxes. Why didn’t he release his tax returns?” Tax evasion is a felony.
Or how about Nancy Pelosi? “Harry Reid made a statement that is true. Somebody told him. It is a fact. Whether he did or not can easily be disposed of: Mitt Romney can release his tax returns and show whether he paid taxes.” http://www.breitbart.com/Big-...

Agreed. He has others doing his dirty work for him so he can claim he didn't have anything to do with it.
Just like his super pac attacking Romney with lies and half truths. Obama knows what is going on but can claim he has nothing to do with their ads.

Harry Reid accused Mitt Romney of being a tax evading felon based on a hypothetical phone call from an imaginary tipster.

Stephanie Cutter, Obama's deputy campaign manager, originally made the claim last month on a conference call.

"Either Mitt Romney, through his own words and his own signature was misrepresenting his position at Bain to the SEC, which is a felony, or he was misrepresenting his position at Bain to the American people to avoid responsibility for some of the consequences of his investments,"
This is not an accusation. it is an observation with details.

I really don't know if he is or he isn't. There have quite a few facts provided to that say he is not. But I'm not nearly as concerned with that as with what he has done to nation's Constitution... bypassing it at every opportunity.

I dont know how he has bypassed the constitution. l am not saying I am smarter. I just like to see something other than a suggestion that it is a fact. Mentions in a news paper usually work. just something to back it up. I would be very happy to be angry at Obama if he had actually done 1/16th of what the far right say he has done. I just see these claims being a lot of word of mouth and no real evidence to back it up. I want to believe.

The most blatant is his backdoor amnesty for illegal children brought here and providing them work permits. It did not and could not pass Congress. It might be a nice thing to do for those kids, but it is against the laws of our constitution. Without changing the law via Congress, it is absolutely bypassing the laws of this nation.

reply
Blessed... to texasred 2012/09/03 23:16:05

I looked up backdoor amnesty for illegal children and I kind of see where you are getting your information. I did not however find anything that was backing up how the "backdoor amnesty for illegal children" bill is against the laws of our constitution. Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer has said a lot of strong words and made a lot of accusations, she hasn't been quoted a lot (much less anyone) stating what actual part of the constitution that the DREAM act is against...Could you help me out while I am doing all your research for you... just tell me what part of the Constitution makes the dream act illegal?
