Romney Campaign Demands Apology from Obama

Yankee Traveler 2012/07/12 21:31:49

Mitt Romney's campaign manager, Matt Rhoades, issued the following
statement after Barack Obama's campaign suggested Romney might be a
criminal:


“President Obama’s campaign hit a new low today when one of its
senior advisers made a reckless and unsubstantiated charge to reporters
about Mitt Romney that was so over the top that it calls into question
the integrity of their entire campaign. President Obama ought to
apologize for the out-of-control behavior of his staff, which demeans
the office he holds. Campaigns are supposed to be hard fought, but
statements like those made by Stephanie Cutter belittle the process and
the candidate on whose behalf she works.”


Here seems to be the quotation, via BuzzFeed, that the Romney campaign is referring to:



Obama deputy campaign manager Stephanie Cutter suggested
that Mitt Romney may be a criminal on a conference call with reporters
this morning about a report that shows that Romney stayed at Bain Capital three years past when he said he'd left.


Cutter said that there were two ways to
interpret the story. The first: Mitt Romney was "misrepresenting his
position" at Bain to the Securities and Exchange Commission, "which is a
felony."


Or, he was "misrepresenting his position at Bain to the American
people. If that’s the case, if he was lying to the American people,
that’s a real character and trust issue," Cutter said.

Oh but obama has been liar, and a proven one since first day( SCOTUS ruled obama a liar) and that's OK for the liberals!

This is not a new low for the liberal/progressives, this is business as usual! Next comes the denying phase!!

    An arrogant ego like ovomit's wouldn't have room to ever admit any mistakes,......it's just Romney's way of saying that he's not going to roll in the mud him or any of his left wing goons.

    He should get the apology. That's pretty low. Even from a adversary in a political campaign. That crosses the line. I expect Obama to apologize for that one - he really needs to.

    Romney is the one that should be apology to the American .. people .. not just for lying but for shipping their jobs overseas .. for the love of money .. and for hiding his money .. and not paying taxes .. on the money he made here in the USA .... but yet claiming he loves the USA .. place your money where your mouth is at ... here in the states ...

    I'd love to place my money where my mouth is but Obama tanked the economy several times and I'm afraid my wallet is a little empty. Why should Romney apologize when Obama has never apologized for his multiple blunders?

    Damn those pesky hypocritical double standards! If only we could blindly ignore them and the past 4 years and support a candidate like the rest of the left!!

    Personally good, bad, or indifferent I would like to know the truth ... neither one of them should be accusing the other of unscrupulous behavior they both are just as guilty.

    I want real change ... and this is the man who will do it ... he's not campaigning he's doing his job!!

    A full floor vote in the House is just around the corner. But the crony capitalists who leech off the Fed’s bailouts and “special loan guarantees” will be fishing around for any fence-straddling congressmen.

    Arms will be twisted. Careers will be threatened. Campaign contributions will be offered. All to prevent the average citizen from knowing the truth about the Fed playing God with our economy.

    Can't donate ... then ... Call your Rep, your Senator, anyone you know that can get this over and done with ... mobilize outraged Americans to turn up the heat ... Crank up the pressure on Congress to support Audit the Fed ...

    The Washington Post, is pushing back against the Globe story as old news and reveals that, in a 2012 book titled "The Real Romney," former Boston Globe reporters criticized Romney for leaving Bain Capital in 1999: The book states clearly that he left Bain when he went to run the Olympics and details the turmoil that ensued when he suddenly quit, nearly breaking up the partnership.

    This campaign has turned into Chicago politics at it's worst.

    Nothing to run on so make up lie after lie about your opponent and never ever apologize. Hope something sticks, even though it is a lie. This entire administration along with anyone in Congress who is backing Obama need to go. Vote them all out. Wake up America before it is too late.

    I think the 'cat was let out of the bag' a bit early! My first reaction to hearing Stephanie Cutter's allegations was why hadn't Holder been 'investigating' that. Then I thought about the timing of the statement and realized this allegation was probably for late September or October and would be followed by Holder investigating and leveling charges. One way to win an election! Obama used dirty tricks to beat out other candidates when he ran in Illinois and would have done so again against McCain (as they did partially in their attacks on Palin) had McCain shown some backbone and not rolled over and played dead.

    This is not the first time this sort of thing has happened.. Obama is DESPARATE..His numbers are down.. ALL across the board his numbers are down so the next thing they do is throw out there fals accusations.. It doesn't matter if it isn't true.. It doesn't matter that they KNOW it isn't true.. You THROW the seed out there and watch it take hold and grow..

    There will be THOUSANDS of reporters out there digging into this JUST like they did with Palin and you'll see POSTS right here pushing the lie by even BIGGER Liars then Obama..

    It's JUST like the Romney visit to the NAACP.. It didn't go like the left wanted.. If Romney wasn't embraced by the blacks there like he was some kind of Great White Hope he wasn't exactly walking away looking like the Grand Wizard of the KKK either.. It is to the CREDIT of that group that they treated him as resectfully as they did but LO and BEHOLD,, THAT wasn't good enough for the likes of Pelosi and Obama and others on the left.. THEY'RE out there claiming that Romney showed DISRESPECT for the GROUP because he bothered to show up after THEY invited him.. Pelosi intimated that he was even being RACIST in showing up and one of the LEADERS of that group ( NAACP ) actually came on O'Reilly's show and accused Romney of using "Code Words" which,, as ...

    And THAT is,,

    " If he doesn't ACTUALLY say anything racist we have to make what he DID say racist.."..

    Obama is in DEEP trouble and these acts of desparation merely show how painfully aware of this he is..

    YES! That's exactly right. If the shoe doesn't fit, well by golly, we'll cut off the toes and MAKE IT FIT. Since the beginning of his strange appearance, Obama has been lying, and he has to keep on LYING to keep the previous lies covered up. He has a way of "covering it up" better than ANY cat has ever covered up anything.

    Doing JUST fine,, my dear lady.. How's my favorite all time sweetheart doing??

    I really AM beginning to believe that America has awakened to what's been happening since the Democrats took over the Government in 2006.. Sure.. Bush was still President for another two years but what was HE gonna do against the onslaught of the Pelosi/Reid/Obama Congress that had the backing of the greatest PR machine of all time.. The MSM..

    They had a GOOD run.. SIx years where they made advancements in their Socialist's agenda that Americans have rejected for almost 100 years but the backlash is going to be AWESOME to behold..

    The left is TERRIFIED that they are going to be pushed back into that FRINGE status again and THEY ARE DESPARATE..

    We KNEW that this was going to be a NASTY fight.. We KNEW that THEY were going to pull out ALL the stops and the WORST has yet to come.. The problem that THEY have is that they have gotten exactly what they never wanted.. The UNDIVIDED attention of the American People.. From HERE on out they are talking to NO ONE but their OWN kind..

    The Extreme Left Wing that thinks America is the root of ALL evil in this world and that she MUST be punished right down to EVERY man,, woman and child for generations to come..

    Everybody except THEM,, of course....

    Of course! THEY can do no wrong, because it's OKAY to kill babies, allow children to be raised by homosexuals, give prisoners comfortable consideration, instead of punishment, and give occupying crybabies free Spaghetti-O's.

    The liberal tactic is throw a bone to the dogs and watch them froth at the mouth. Just wait and see all the liberals on SH post this at every argument as if it were the truth.
    We are dealing with vile disgusting immoral lies coming from the left. It worked in 08 and people thrived on it with the idea of a promise for a better life but that never came and they are tired and disillusioned. Of course there are still those that fall for the BS.
    2012 will prove to be very interesting but it still takes people to go out and vote, sitting at home doesn't change anything.
