Romney Kicked Obama's Butt in Tonight's Debate

Obama supporter Bill


Maher
tweeted after the debate:

“Obama made a lot of good


points
tonight --


unfortunately
most of them


were
for Romney!”

When a far-left loon like Bill Maher says Obama lost, it's a pretty good bet that he did. Maher also tweeted something to the effect (don't have the exact language) that Obama appeared to need his teleprompter!

    In terms of style, Romney did better, but in terms of truth, Romney told so many lies he has dug his grave even deeper. As the days go on and the truth is revealed, all will see that Obama will be the next President.

    Please list all of those "lies" that Romney told, if you will.

    The "truth" as it is revealed by Barack Obama is nothing but one big lie. He and the Dims have been defining Romney with their negative ads - now that the public has seen the real Mitt Romney they can judge him on their own.

    Who's right? The Washington Post's Fact Checker says the facts on this one are on Obama's side. The New York Times notes that Romney "has proposed cutting all marginal tax rates by 20 percent — which would in and of itself cut tax revenue by $5 trillion."

    FactCheck.org has weighed in too, tweeting during the debate that "Romney says he will pay for $5T tax cut without raising deficit or raising taxes on middle class. Experts say that's not possible."

    PolitiFact has given a "mostly true" rating to the charge that "Romney is proposing a tax plan "that would give millionaires another tax break and raise taxes on middle class families by up to $2,000 a year."

    — Has the president put in place a plan that would cut Medicare benefits by $716 billion? Romney says yes. The president says no. According to PolitiFact, Romney's charge is "half true."

    "That amount — $716 billion — refers to Obamacare's reductions in Medicare spending over 10 years, primarily paid to insurers and hospitals," says PolitiFact. So there is a basis for the number. But, it adds, "the statement gives the impression that the law takes money already allocated to Medicare away from current recipients," which is why it gets only a "half true" rating.

    The New York Times writes that Obama "did not cut benefits by $716 billion over 10 years as part of his 2010 health care law; rather, he reduced Medicare reimbursements to health care providers, chiefly insurance companies and drug manufacturers. And the law gave Medicare recipients more generous benefits for prescription drugs and free preventive care like mammograms."

    Left this, left that, sock this, sock that, Kool-Aid this, Kool-Aid that..........blah,blah,blah.... this, media that.......knock it off already. Next thing you know Jesus will be called a lib!!!!!
  • Ken SJG 2012/10/06 15:39:23 (edited)

    No, Jesus would never be called a lib or a progressive - their failures have been consistent since the "ideas" they follow first came from the French hero, Rousseau, in the 18th century.

    Big nanny-state governments have never worked because they encourage indigence and penalize those with industry and innovation - simply put, they go against human nature.

    Scottish philosopher David Hume was a vigorous opponent of efforts to impose egalitarianism, or “perfect equality” (today's "Obamunism") because first, “man’s different degrees of art, care, and industry will immediately break” that equality, and second, it will “reduce society to the most extreme indigence; and instead of preventing want and beggery in a few, render it unavoidable to the whole community.”,

    James Madison, the father of the Constitution, was a big fan of Hume's and deliberately left out the "redistributive justice" that Obama finds lacking in the Constitution. That's the very reason that libs and progs have for decades appointed to the courts jurists who claim the Constitution is a "living document" (i.e. meaningless) so they can interpret it any way they want. They have allowed the federal government to usurp powers far beyond those that are specifically set forth in the Constitution.

    Like most other libs, you apparently can't handle the truth

    Good - with the amount of cable TV we have available there's no need for public-supported left-wing propaganda outlets like PBS and NPR. Good shows like Sesame Street will easily find another home.
