Grover Norquist: Obama Won Because He Called Romney A 'Poopy Head'

[kpete]

Source: Huffington Post

Grover Norquist, founder and president of Americans For Tax Reform, has a new theory about why President Barack Obama won -- he portrayed Mitt Romney as a "poopy head."

"The president was committed; elected on the basis that he was not Romney and Romney was a poopy head and you should vote against Romney and he won by two points," Norquist said on CBS' "This Morning" Monday. "But he didn't make the case that we should have higher taxes and higher spending, he kind of sounded like the opposite."

Host Norah O'Donnell pushed back. "Well, I'm not sure that's what the president called Mitt Romney, Grover," she said. "That's not the debate that was had ... he said very clearly throughout the debate that the wealthiest Americans should pay more and he won eight of the nine battleground states and Republicans failed to reclaim the White House or the Senate."

1. Sorry Grover, Obama won by 62 points.

[savalez]

99. I count 126

O: 332
R: 206
------
Diff: 126

[obxhead]

101. I know, 270 is the magic number though.

Either way, it was a blow out. The electoral votes are what matter, not the popular vote.

[Scairp]

122. But he did win the popular vote anyway

Regardless of how you cut it he won the election, electoral college or no.

[Scairp]

121. And he is allegedly a grown-up

How nice to know that Grover is familiar with the language of a third grader, completely unlike the president. How is it this man-child has so much power? I really don't get it.

[pbrower2a]

130. Infantile speech pattern

People in distress, such as those who have lost everything they have ever worked for, often revert to child-like behavior and speech. Give Grover some slack: he lost big. His chance of calling the shots with Congress and a weak President, which he thought a sure thing a week ago, went awry.

Norquist is a vile man, and we should expect vileness from him in his sore-loser rhetoric. Government by lobbyist that Norquist dreams of is a 100%-American form of dictatorship, but it is exactly what stared us in the face. It may be novel, but it is unlikely to be new and improved over what went on in Spain under Franco.

3. No, he called him a BULLSHITTER which of course he is, and Grover is an ASSHOLE LOSER so FUCK HIM !

[Cha]

105. Yeah, PBO called him a "bullshiter".. and the cons took

umbrage!

[Hissyspit]

4. Grover Norquist is a shithead.

I'm not the President or a pundit, so I am not obliged to use euphemism.

[AgingAmerican]

26. You read my mind

My first thought when I read it

[RBInMaine]

5. No Grover, he and all the RePUKES lost because they pledged allegiance to YOU instead of to US.

[coldbeer]

28. excellent line!

I'm on social security and can't make ends meet.
Thank you for medicare. I finally could afford a
doctor and for $66.00 he fixed my illness and now
I live. I've had a hemoroid for years and thought
it was cancer and did not want a pre-existing
condition. The $66.00 would have been over
$1,000.00 but I qualified for Veterans Administration
because I was drafted and served my two years
back in '68.

Insurance and taxes kill me. BUT I WILL PROUDLY
PAY MORE TAXES. Oh, I'm not broke but I will be
before I reach a hundred,

6. that's funny coming from a "poopy head"

[ProudToBeBlueInRhody]

7. Why is this political hack taken seriously by ANYONE?

WHO the FUCK is he?

[CoffeeCat]

33. Norquist is the communications director for the corporate mafia...

Norquist represents the interests of the corporate mafia that runs the world. Norquist's continual lurking around Congress is a constant reminder to our elected officials--that if you don't legislate in ways that your corporate masters find pleasing--there will be consequences.

Norquist has said publicly that any Republican who doesn't sign his "no taxes" pledge or any Republican who breaks the pledge will be primaried. The corporations and the mucky mucks will put loads of cash behind a primary challenger. Grover and friends will do everything to destroy and defeat those politicians who will not agree to have their lunch money stolen every day.

Norquist is a henchmen--a constant reminder to Republicans that their asses are owned by the corporations--and therefore, they should legislate accordingly.

[blue_heron]

44. didn't he 'primary' dick lugar???

look how that worked out for him! He would up with a candidate who lost the seat! LOL!

[SCVDem]

88. We tell the Dems to grow a set! nt

[savannah43]

61. Nobody knows.

[Crunchy Frog]

82. I don't know, but for some reason

he seems to have a tremendous hold on the Republican party and its elected officials. Maybe someday someone will come out with a tell all book.

[beac]

8. Whatsa matter, Little Mister Drown-the-Government-in-the-Bathtub?

Someone steal your rubber ducky??



And just like any bad little boy who uses "poopy head", Grovie's babysitter had to put him in time out!

[riderinthestorm]

9. Poopyhead?? Really?! I haven't heard that term since my kids left kindergarten

and especially not by an adult in any kind of adult conversation.

[DonViejo]

27. LOL. I was thinking the same thing, "I haven't heard that

expression since my youngest son left kindergarten sixteen years ago!"

[brush]

56. Yeah, what an ahole.

He's still using kiddy language. In fact, I saw him interviewed once and he related how his whole claim to fame, the "no taxes pledge", is something he thought up when he was 12-years-old. Can you imagine, this allegedly grown man is still clinging to a a stubborn, inflexible ideology he conjured up as a pre-pubescent boy. He's somehow thrust it into the repug policy arena and others are actually going alone with an idea from a 12-year-old mind. GOD!

[AlbertCat]

94. others are actually going alone with an idea from a 12-year-old mind.

Just like Ayn Randians!

[sammytko]

109. well he does have the voice of a 12 yr old n/t

[Thinkingabout]

10. Grover is grasping at straws, the oath signers are realizing how bad the oath is.

Now Grover is trying to frame the oath as being an oath to constituents, no Grover we did not write this oath you did, you have been collecting the money donations while leading this nation off the cliff.
Get over yourself and realized you have made a big mess, find a new source of income. You are a taker and silly people was givers, don't expect any sympathy from the Democrats.

[Wind Dancer]

11. Another delusional Republican!

These guys refuse to face the truth, regardless of facts. The 2 points talking memo is absolute BS, pure and simple. Can't these people add?

[hobbit709]

12. Obama told the truth-Romney IS a poopyhead.

Its disgusting how the media takes these juvenile idiots seriously, I feel there will be a march in protest of media soon,i just have a feeling.

[LiberalAndProud]

97. The off button will be more effective.

TV stopped doing news a long time ago. They report sensational tabloid stories to titillate their viewers. Jon Bonet Ramsay, Monica Lewinsky and O.J. Simpson set the stage for our era. It's why the Petraeus story has legs. It's sexy and it sells.

[DinahMoeHum]

14. My fondest wish for Norquist is that he is "disappeared"

and is found days/weeks/months later at the bottom of the Potomac or Anacostia River.

[Carolina]

40. better still

found in a sewage treatment plant

[RevStPatrick]

15. Poopyhead... This from the guy...

...who came up with his whole "no-tax pledge" when he was 13 years old.
Grover needs to grow up.

[LiberalEsto]

16. Well, he's a Doody Face. Nyaaaaaaaah.

What is this, kindergarten?

[Live and Learn]

20. lol nt

[Submariner]

17. But Rove said Obama won because of voter suppression

is it voter suppression or poopy head charges? I'm so confused.

[merrily]

69. Rove thinks that Obama's calling Romney a poopy head suppressed the vote.

I hope that ends the confusion.

What I am confused about though, is what you and I ever did to deserve this level of political discourse.

19. missing the problem here

that mainstream media is just horrible... no journalism, no smart folks reporting.. based on the business model not journalism model. "poopy heads?" come on, lets get to some real reporting.

[Baitball Blogger]

21. Grover is explaining it in terms that he can understand.

[RoccoR5955]

22. He doesn't like being called a "poopy head,"

then he shouldn't have poopy policies!
Obama won by 126 electoral votes. That is what RepubLIECONs call a "landslide." America made a mandate, and Norquist's no tax pledge holds no water. We should drown it in a bathtub!

[onehandle]

[John2]

32. I

heard this little guy out on CSpan. They had no call in show for him and a format as if he was dictating instructions for the GOP's next move against President Obama. He comes off as some kind of little Napolean. He is full of Delusions of Grandeur.

His logic is something out of Disneyland. He was wrong on President Obama's margin and his belief of the Republicans holding the House as some kind of mandate which puts them on the level of the President. The media elevates him as some puppet master pulling the GOP's strings, which I'm sure is giving him some high.

He is one of the cancers for the country and the GOP. Just who is his organization. It probably is one of these small rightwing groups calling themselves Patriots. And to get more specific, one of these angry whitemales that hate minorities. It is not only Taxes that he expresses his rightwing ideology but also other issues.

He has been elected to nothing. There is no constituency in any city, county, or state backing him. He is just one individual. In other words, another wingnut. The American people rejected Romney and Ryan's Policies. Those Policies, were this little wingnut's policies.

[blackspade]

34. Eye roll.

This guy is taken seriously, why?

Can we flush this guy down the same toilet as Limpballs?

[bucolic_frolic]

36. It's called projection, Grover

Get a shrink. Your ego has contributed enough to the
decline of America.

[nc4bo]

37. They absolutely refuse to give up those BS policies, even after Americans voted them down a 2nd time

It was nice to see O'Donnell press this slimeball - didn't seem to slow Norquist down for one second, just kept on with the same really old tax cuts for the job creator BS and the middle class is to trust and wait for the eventual trickle down to pull us out.

Same ole junk.

Republicans have themselves a major problem of their own creation and they can double down on it from now until forever, Americans know this agenda works for ONLY for the 1%ers, not the middle class.

[AgingAmerican]

43. After Reagans tax cuts

The Reagan administration realized that the policy was only causing massive deficits, and started raising taxes. Even Reagan, Alzheimer's and all, rejected Reaganomics.

Grover Norquist is a flipping weirdo. He always has a look on his face like he is straining to take a shit.

Republicans have an ideology problem. It does their thinking for them, and it just doesn't work. They will NEVER let go of it. They will always believe the problem is that NOT ENOUGH ideology has been applied. Ideologues are dangerous and stupid, but not necessarily in that order.

[Carolina]

39. Well, Grover

if the shoe fits...

[reflection]

42. Obama won because he had the audacity to provide specifics,

and also draw clear distinctions between himself and Romney.

Romney, on the other hand, was a shape-shifting doppelganger who morphed into whatever was required of him at that snapshot in time. Additionally, he was too big of a coward to be his own man, and by the third debate, he had devolved into some sort of perverse parasitic myna bird, nodding and repeating the positions of its host while simultaneous trying to destroy it. He was a mendacious child in a five-thousand dollar suit.

To say Obama won because he called Romney a "poopy head" is naive at best and disingenuous at worst.

[AgingAmerican]

54. Obama's campaign checkmated Karl Roves time tested strategy

Of "Fear and smear". Rove should have been even MORE powerful than in the past because on top of his fear and smear strategy, he had fists full of corporate cash to throw at the battleground states.

Obama proved that Democracy trumps money and stupidity. Obama's campaign hired brilliant socioligist types and silicon valley types who created a very sofisticated database of potential Democratic voters in areas that had been previously overlooked. Obama's campaign team then concentrated on registering these untapped potential voters and getting them to the polls. Romneys aids were completely blindsided by this. They didn't even know these voters existed. It really was a brilliant campaign. Smart on top of smart.

Rove, on the other hand, threw handfuls of excrement around, which once upon a time served GW Bush well. Pair that with the fact Romney has zero integrity and is an unabashed pathological liar and you had the perfect storm for Romney's Defeat.

Obama used Roves strategy against him and beat him over the head with it, instantly reacting to their lies with ad blitzes pointing out such.

To beat the handful's of PAC money in battleground states, Obama's team used CAMPAIGN MONEY in battleground states instead of PAC money. This allowed them to run more ads than Rove, because the law allows candidates to bulk buy ads at a much lower rate if they use their own campaign money. Romneys campaign used PAC money in those states. Another thing, the PAC money ads run by Romney were idiotic. I saw a few of them and they were bizarre, talking about the "dangers of socialism" and other ideological tea party level nonsense.

It was the perfect storm, brilliantly played!

[SDjack]

45. Unfortunately for the GOP, it nodded to a candidate whose

breath stinks like shit. All Pres. Obama did was to draw the logical conclusion.

[sarcasmo]

46. Norquist or Rove, not sure which one is worse for America.

[Myrina]

47. Just proves that Americans want a President who speaks the truth ...

Robme IS a poopy-head, after all.

Seriously, this guy is a moron. THIS is who the GOP makes a pledge to that is destroying our country?

We are the adults here and we need to tell people like this to shut the fuck up.

[davidpdx]

116. I think that's offensive to 3 year olds

They act much better then Norquist.

51. Being my juvenile self

I'd be even more happy to vote for Obama had he called Romney a poopy head. That would have been classic.

[workinclasszero]

52. Wow this is the expert election analysis from the leader of the Teabag Party?

OMG these people are batshit insane! Infantile sociopaths! Wow what a bunch of abject FAILURES!

2014 is going to be so much fun! And the democratic party will rule from then on as the teabaggers destroy themselves!

[meow2u3]

62. How old is Grover Norquist? 5?

The last time I heard "poopy head" was when the kid I babysat was in kindergarten.

BTA, he was probably explaining Obama's win in terms the repig voters could understand. After all, they have the average emotional age of a kindergartener.

[olddad56]

I say that because your mind is deluded with shit ideas, lies, and more lies.

66. O.K., I had to Google that one.

poopy head - http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=poopy%20head

The single most offensive thing you can call someone.
It's like the atom bomb of arguments.
Men fear it's omnipotent and awesome power.
It it literally unmatched and all humble themselves in the presence of it's divinity.
Few have survived to tell of it...

Person 1: Your (sic) such a dumbass, you stupid little f***er.
Person 2: You poopy head!
Person 1: *cries*

poopy head

A poopy head is something little kids call each other when they're angry.
It means they have shit for brains, therefore they are idiots.
Bobby, you poopy head, u spelled CAT wrong!

Poopy Head

a kids version of shit head

[Pachamama]

111. ROFL!!!

Cant stop laughing on that definition....

Seriously? "Poopyhead" - last time I jeard that word it was uttered by 4 yr olds on a playground in a disagreement. I thought it was a joke when I saw this post....i seriously could not believe a grown-man would even use this word....i knew immediately that President Obama would never use this word, but I couldnt even believe that Grover Norquist would use this word to either describe Obama or suggest Obama had ever used it. In fact, even if Obama used that word (which is unthinkable, even in jest), I cant believe Norquist would even repeat the word because it just makes him look like a idiot and infantile.....well, I guess that is why he used the word....he is an idiot and infantile....confirmed now.

[lunatica]

127. LOL!

It's also followed with derisive laughter and finger pointing to emphasize the insult. Sometimes snickering is also included.

[Coyotl]

129. I'll remember that next time I pull this from my arsenal. LOL.

Repitition too, I'm sure, enhances the effect.

Poopy head, poopy head, poopy head, .... snicker, ...

[merrily]

67. Excuse # 1098765 for why Romney lost that does not involve Republican policies.

This excuse is a two fer. Not only does it shield the Republican policies that brought us global economic disaster, but it also lays the ground for Republicans to run the most negative pollitical campaigns ever from now until the end of time.

Here's the thing. Romney attack the President's record in the Oval Office because the President had a record in the Oval Office. However, Romney also ran away from his own record and Governor and instead vowed to repeal Obamacare/Romneycare. He tried to run on the Olympics, but all the gaffes made during his pointless trip to Europe by his aide and him closed off that route, too.

So, Romney ran on his alleged success as a businessman, which was supposed to give him cred on the economy in general and job creating in particular. Therefore, Obama attacked him on his alleged success as a businessman, pointing out all Romney's anti U.S. jobs moves. Then, Romney said he was not responsible for those moves, whereupon the Obama campaign came up with an SEC filing by Romney that said otherwise.

And, Romney's story kept changing, so Obama pointed that out as well.

Both of them implied the other was being less than truthful (and so did factcheckedrs, for that matter).

When an incumbent runs, you have the luxury to attack his job performance. What was Obama supposed to attack, if Romney ran away from most of his own history and lied and shifted positions about the rest? Romney's school transcripts? Only Trump is that stupid!

[AllyCat]

68. He won by a landslide by even REPUBLICAN standards Grover.

And I don't remember him ever calling Romney a poopy head. I think you are lying. Or deluded.

79. Sooo....Those here at DU that compared Grover to a junior-high school student so many times

89. Holy Fucking Shit!!

Not only is the entire Repuke Party beholden to an idiotic pledge written by a 12 year old....the 12 year old who wrote it, still hasn't matured past the 7th Grade.

And yes! Grover developed his "pledge" when he was a 12 year old! I'm convinced that the reason he came up with his pledge was because no girl would give him the time of day.

He went from being a fat, pimple-faced asshat adolescent, to being a fat, pimple-faced asshat baby boomer!

If only someone had given him a "hummer" or a hand-job when he was a boy, we wouldn't have to deal with this self-absorbed little pissant.

[ballaratocker]

108. I think someone is having relevancy issues.

Norquist needs to rear his ugly head as there is a 50/50 chance that his stooges in the House and the Senate will stab him in the back. He needs a good soundbite to keep himself in the news.

[LaPera]

110. 62,085,892 votes Obama = 50.6% - 58,777,012 votes Romney = 47.9%

Obama lead % will no doubt increase as votes trickle in from absentees, overseas voting, military, etc.....

Obama has a clear over 50% majority and will have more than a three point total.

132. Obama consistently and patiently explained the policy differences between

himself and Money Boo Boo. In fact he was savaged by the "liberal media" after the first debate for not going on the offensive against rMoney and instead acting as if a "debate" was supposed to be about each side explaining what they were for and why they were for it.

At some point in time these idiots fell into a feedback loop within the bullshit stream of their propaganda machine. They used to know they were lying, now they are in what Bill Maher calls "the bubble", their own private world view, immune to facts, divorced from common reality.

Norquist is doing the 180 gambit.
