So, Walnuts thinks the president was "mean" to Mittens

and that the "insults" were uncalled-for????


WTF???

It's "just a joke" when Mittens et al use those dog-whistles BULLHORNS to spew racist /xenophobic nonsense as they send ignorant photoshops around via email or use them on misspelled signage, or when a sitting congressman yells out " YOU LIE" during a joint session of congress...or when they continually make "jokes" about Kenya or birth certificates..or when campaign big shots (like Sununu) suggest that the president needs to "learn" how to be an American..

Those are hunky-dory, but "on-topic zingers" are somehow not fair..

waaaaaaaahhhh

and didn't get to pull them off. Then comes Obama and zings him again and again. Ouch, that's gotta hurt.

Poor Mittens

courteous and let All the lies go-He would be "charged with weakness"-Remember PBO tried to "let it go" in the first debate and what happened then?

Don't waste time on their reactions! It's a vicious cycle-we'll Never change it because this type of "psycho" behavior Is their plan.
Imho, when you hear romney lying to the Pres face, insisting he's correct---4 mins later he's contradicting himself-denying what he said moments earlier--they all do it.
They are master "nit-pickers" on insignificant crap and end up creating a "curtain" around that actual valid point.
Their ground rules are simple: Lie; Deny; Confuse; Wash; Rinse; Repeat
At least that the way I see it.

"The 1980s are now calling to ask for their foreign policy back."

-- Barack Obama to Mitt Romney, October 2012

"The 80th [Do Nothing] Congress is run by a bunch of old mossbacks still living back in 1890."

-- Harry S. Truman to a crowd in Reno, Nevada, October 1948

1890s, 1980s... nice symmetry. Great to see the President channeling "Give 'Em Hell" Harry.

in 2008 when he's crouching behind Obama? And, calling him "That One"?

McCain needs to man up and cut out the hypocrisy..no one is buying it except braindead teabaggers.
