Mitt Romney tells 533 lies in 30 weeks, Steve Benen documents them

This deserves to be forwarded to righties:

http://www.patheos.com/blogs/slacktivist/2012/08/29/mitt-romney-tells-533-lies-in-30-weeks-steve-benen-documents-them/

I’ve written about or linked to a great deal here “chronicling Mitt’s mendacity” — to borrow Steven Benen’s phrase.

Mitt Romney says many, many things that are not true. He says this despite being in possession of the correct facts of the matter.

Which is to say that Mitt Romney lies. A lot. He lies more than any other national candidate for office in my lifetime. And I was born before the Nixon administration.

This is documented. Proven. Validated, verified, demonstrated, catalogued and quantified. Mitt Romney lies.

I don't use social media, but I plan to do some printing and send them to a few people I have in mind.

The man is scum.

I have been refraining from political stuff on my facebook but have been active in responding to those that continue to post inaccurate or misleading posts about Obama and all that goes with Democratic point of view.

Several Fundamentalists in my Family are rallying behind Romney and are trying to find every reason possible to not support Obama. I have corrected them several times about posts they have put up with proof from "Fact Check" or other comparable sites. I know they must be starting to despise my posts because I am holding any of them accountable for a plethora of FB postings that have been circulating lately that are out right lies about Obama.

There was a post about Ryan's speech being full of lies today and you should have seen how the righties were trying to spin out of it....

So I am going to post my first political post tonight... and I am curious how my fundie family and friends will respond. lol

This is just perfect.... just absolutely perfect.
