Cenk debunked it, but Jayar didn't buy his debunking.

By the way, they all make a good point I haven't heard anywhere else: why can't they bring notes?

3. Rachel Was Wrong

Last night when she accused folks on the left of living in an alternate reality for thinking Romney may have been cheating. The way the various reports came out on the internet was in the same order as TYTs presented them in this video. When the last video was shown, with Mitt wiping his forehead, I'm quite sure most folks then knew the mystery item was indeed a handkerchief.

That's not living in an alternate universe--that's changing one's point of view in lieu of the evidence presented. That's what one is supposed to do.

Let's face it anyone who doesn't trust a person who lied 27 times in 38 minutes & won't release their tax returns must live in a dream world. Right Rachel?

Besides, why does Romney need notes? He just makes it up anyway.

7. These crooks are experts at playing the people and the media. Do you really think that whole wipe

his nose thing was not planned when the cameras were on him explicitely? Come on, people. He could have wiped his nose in a more private moment, but, no, he has to do it when everyone is watching. Still a liar, still a cheater, still a thief, still a loser.

And then the look on his son's face as if Mitt had just stuffed a bag of weed down his shorts.

If you can't see that this object bounced after it hit the lectern (it was not placed), then perhaps some new glasses. I have no idea what it was. It very well could have been a very stiff handkerchief...a folded, metal handkerchief to wipe the synthetic oil he sweats. Or, it could have been note cards bound in some fashion.

If you expect that these thieves will do anything to win (short of open conflict), why is this shocking and so easily disregarded. There is a gnawing desperation on the necon side to win. It is far easier to pillage the country from a position of power.
