Renewable energy would have kept lights on in NYC
Opponents of renewable energy, including Mitt Romney and the Teabagger lunatics he calls his "base", often look like bigger idiots than normal when power goes out, due to various natural disasters. That is because systems like rooftop solar panels, especially with battery backup, can keep the lights on for those users while the centralized power consumers are plunged into darkness. Those who have electric cars can potentially even draw power from their cars, which act as giant batteries, and get even more emergency power. Meanwhile, those who rely on coal-fired power plants to supply them electricity for heating get to enjoy the cold and the dark.
Romney's Mormon Canned Food Obsession
As Hurricane Sandy bears down on the East Coast, Mitt Romney is touting the useless idea that people should be collecting and donating canned food to give to organizations like the Red Cross to help with relief. This is largely to deflect from Mitt's previously stated position to abolish federal disaster relief acencies like FEMA and his suggestion that the aid given to Katrina victims was "immoral". The problem is that the Red Cross, among other relief agencies, has already said that they don't want canned food and can't use it. They can't store it and it is difficult to transport or distribute from place to place. Also, some of the canned food may already be expired and can do more harm than good, if one is not careful.
But none of this deters Romney, probably because, as a Mormon, they have an obsession with stockpiling huge amounts of canned food, which they believe will help them survive Armageddon. Of course, the reality is that, in a real crisis, people would probably just shoot the smug little Mormons for their canned food and then it would do no them good anyway. It's just a scam run by the Mormon church, which tells members that they need to keep a multi-year supply because it creates the illusion that this makes them more prepared than the rest of the populace.
In any event, Sandy might linger for a couple days at most, and many things, such as fruits and vegetables can easily keep for a few days, even without refrigeration. Besides canned food is NASTY and usually unhealthy, with tons of salt and preservatives, and that is basically why nobody wants to eat the crap, even in an emergency. It is why many food banks and shelters can't give it away, even to homeless people. It is why only dimwit Mormons like Romney think that it's the simple-minded quick fix for dealing with any emergency, even though it would really do nothing of any significance to help out.

If Obama is "wrong kind of christian", Mitt isn't a Christian at all
Obama's more liberal and progressive faith, represented by membership in the United Church of Christ, might be less traditional than some, but it is nothing nearly as radical as the non-Christian religion known as Mormonism. Mormon's don't even believe that Jesus is God incarnate, or the only son of God. They instead believe that he is a "spirit child" of Elohim, but that there were billions of other "spirit children" of this god, including Lucifer. Imagine the unroar in conservative circles if Barrack Obama said that he thought Jesus and Lucifer were bros? Yet rightwingers cling to Romney like a false messiah, perhaps because that is exactly what he is. They have abandoned any pretense that they are anything other than Satan worshippers in disguise.
Flippin Mitt is Full of Shitt
Oh, I know there was great outrage when Obama said what everyone else already thinks, that Flippin' Mitt is a total BSer, which is about like observing that the sky tends to be blue. However, for those of us who have been tracking this phenomena for far longer than Obama, we have a special term for Mitt's BS. It is dubbed Mitt Shitt, which is a special substance that is so rank and fetid that merely calling it bullsh*t is like calling the late Kim Jong Il "slightly eccentric". Let's get real. Mitt has taken the concept of bullsh1t artistry to an industrial scale. He could spray coat the QE2 in five minutes flat with it. His latest, of course is his flip flop trying to imply that he would support subsidies for wind power in Iowa,, where he is sucking hard in the polls. Of course, in classic Mitt fashion, he doesn't actually say that he would support wind power, but he wants you think that he does, since he is saying it in Iowa where they have a lot of it, and are voting against him due to his backstabbing of former Republican allies like Grassley, who want to support the wind industry that Iowa has created.

Obama the best hope for science...read it and weep
If you care about science and specifically about the US continuing to lead and innovate in science, then you should vote for Barrack Obama, says Johns Hopkins medical researcher Andy Feinberg. The article also notes that they attempted to contact the Romney/Ryan campaign for a counter-balanced view, but they refused to comment. That should tell you something about how much Romney and Ryan care about science. Ryan in particular has proposed massive cuts to the NIH and other government supported scientific research programs. Obama has proposed increasing government-supported scientific research to 3% of GDP, which would build and beef up our long tradition of supporting basic research. The president has also used reality-based information when dealing with issues such as renewable energy development, climate change, and a host of other politically contentious, scientific hotcakes. A Romney/Ryan administration would return us to the days of witch hunts against climate scientists, revisions of their reports, and perhaps another ban on government support for embryonic stem cell research, given Ryan's professed belief that a single-celled organism deserves the same rights as a fully-developed human being. The Bush era limitations on stem cell research allowed many other countries to advance far beyond the US in this crucial area, and future cuts or bans would probably be the death knell of American leadership in science, in general.
God Wills The Rape And the Pregnancy Mourdock Says
Richard Mourdock, by proclaiming that pregnancies from rape are "something that God intended to happen" is saying that God willled the rape as well as the pregnancy. This is ought to offend religious people, though all the religious nutjobs are rallying to Mourdock, prinicpally because they appear to be too dumb to understand what he said. It highlights their ignorant lack of understand of their professed religious beliefs and their insincerity in general. It also proves, once and for all, that anti-abortionists are trying to force religion on other people through the legal system. Mourdock thinks its God's will that the woman was raped, and he will make sure that the legal system forces her to follow what he believes is God's will. Osama bin Laden would have been proud of that theocratic viewpoint, though he preferred forcing Islam on people, whereas Mourdock prefers snake-handling, back-woods, bible thumping.
But as theologians are quick to point out, this puts God on the hook for evil. He should have said that the rape was God's punishment for the woman being an evil little slut, or something. That would have allowed him to blame the victim, who probably had it coming anyway, because she was wearing lipstick or something. But apparently Mourdock isn't even smart enough to do that, and that's why he is too dumb to deserve to be a senator.

Binder of women is clear discrimination
It is no surprise that there are so few female executives at Bain Capital. After all, they probably have difficulty running home and cooking dinner and vacuuming the house between meetings, even if Mitt, out of the goodness of his heart, gives them a hall pass to run home so they can do their "womanly duties".
We now know, due to Mitt's inadvertent confession of having "binders full of women", that he keeps separate and unequal lists of job applicants, selected by gender. This, in itself would skate right on the edge of sexual discrimination. But what pushes it over the line is that Mitt is clearly saying that he not only had people compile this for him, but that he used these lists to select candidates, instead of interviewing the most qualified people, regardless of gender, and hiring the most qualified people, even if those person's happened to lack a trouser snake.
Why aren't right-wingers screaming about Mitt practicing "reverse discrimination", not to mention "affirmative action"? Right wingers, like our ever inarticulate former President FlubDub, have complained about how there shouldn't be "quotas" of different types of people that one is forced to hire. Yet, it sounds like this is precisely the purpose that Romney had for his "binders full of women". Naturally, there is no outrage from right-wingers, because he is a Republican.
One shudders to think of what hysterical wailing and gnashing of teeth would have instantly ensued in the right-wing media if Obama had admitted to something this stupid and ridiculous.

Escape Mitt's Binder. Vote Obama.
Why the hell does Mitt need a BINDER full of persons all pre-selected on the criteria of *not having dingalings* so that he can occasionally hire one of them? Most companies have mandatory, yearly training on avoiding sexual harassment and sexual discrimination. It sounds to me though, like big shot Mitt has never had to take any of those. Those are only for the peons and underlings that serve him. However, in the real world, for a person to admit that he has a separate binder of hoochie-mamas that he occasionally opens up, when they can't find a man to do the job would surely be something that sexual harassment training would instruct management to avoid. It sounds, therefore, like Mitt very clearly has separate and unequal views men and women, when it comes to hiring. In short, it appears that Mitt tipped his hand a bit too much the other day, and basically admitted that he has engaged in overt discrimination, based upon gender.
That is, if he only looked at a "binder" full of women to fill a position then he even engaged in *reverse discrimination* which right-wingers scream about all the time, by refusing to consider male candidates. Presumably he did not go to male advocacy groups like NO MAAM, with local chapters meeting down at the "nudie bar", to build "binders of men".
That would, after all be *kind of gay* and we know that Mitt believes it is his religious duty to stick it in as many women as he can. Unfortunately, Mormons cannot legally have more than one "official" wife, but they can have as many "girlfriends" and corporate "sex workers" as they can afford.

Romney's Binders of Bimbos for his Harem
Welcome to the 19th century, ladies. That's what you will get by voting for Romney. See Romney is incapable of just hiring a highly qualified person who happens to be female, without even considering that person's gender. Instead, he needs people to go through and construct BINDERS of WOMEN so that he can leaf these books of NON-MEN, who have the temerity to actually WANT A JOB. He can then say, "Ooh, that one looks pretty. I think we'll hire her. I bet she'd make great coffee and give good BJs too!". Or better yet, Romney can take all the pictures down to the Mormon Temple and pray over them, and imagine that all of them were his wives.
Hint to Romney: You are not supposed to be building your harem. You are supposed to be hiring people to do work. Why should you need to have groups pre-select and pre-qualify "multiple "binders" of people, based upon the criteria that they all have vaginas, and then consider "hiring" them to make the "femiNAZIs" happy, as Rush Limbaugh would surely put it. I know that Feminism is a *terrible* thing if you are a right-winger. It is, after all, "The RADICAL notion that women are PEOPLE", as the most hated feminist in public office today, Hillary Clinton, famously quipped.
Mitt also noted that he understand that womenfolk need to have "flexible" schedules so that they can work their butts off for him all day long and then run home and "cook dinner". It sure is refreshing to know that, out of the goodness of Mitt's inky, black heart, that he will ALLOW women the flexibility to both work a full-time job and then go home and do all the housework, cook the meals, and raise the kids too. That is pretty WHITE MALE of him, isn't it?! It sounds like Mitt has never volunteered to cook dinner at his place. They would probably drum him out of the Mormon church, and the heterosexual man-club for an offense of that magnitude.
I can just imagine how the interview with Mitt and his Binder women went:
Mitt: "Hey baby, you wanna work 'under' me?
Binder woman: "I am highly qualified and have a law degree so *yes* I would like to work *for* this company.
Mitt: "Oh yeah, what does your husband thing about that, sweetie pie?"
Binder woman: "I haven't consulted with my husband yet, since this is a preliminary interview".
Mitt: "But how are you going to make time to run home and cook him dinner and take care of the kids?"
Binder woman: "My husband is a chef and he has a *flexible* schedule."
Mitt: "I'm sorry, but we're not comfortable with your *kind* here, Mrs. bra-burner. NEXT!"

666 Antichrist Paul Ryan Waffles on Abortion
Mr. 666 Paul Ryan had to try to pretend that he cares about human life in the Vice Presidential debate, but had to defend formerly pro-choice Mitt Romney who now wants to go against the GOP party platform and allow abortion in the case of rape or to protect the life of the mother. Now Romney has even gone one better by promising that he doesn't intend to pass any legislation to limit abortion. Gee, tell that to Paul Ryan who has sponsored 38 anti-abortion bills, including one with Todd Akin that tried to exclude certain types of rape as an exception under which abortion would be permissible. Of course Ryan wants to outlaw abortion so that his demonic armies of the antichrist can be born through forced impregnations, and they can begin the final battle.
Furthermore, critics are certainly correct that the rape exception is a loophole big enough to drive an oil tanker through. All a women would have to say is, "I was raped by some unknown guy. Now where's my abortion?" If one says that abortion is A-OK to protect the life of the mother, then it becomes a judgment call on the part of the doctor, because all pregnancies carry some risk of death to the mother. Furthermore, Once one starts with exceptions it is likely that ever more exceptions will be found. Why not allow abortion for severe birth defects. There might as well not be a ban...oh wait a minute, there isn't one anyway...it's been perfectly legal for 40 years and Republicans have failed to do anything to significantly curtail it. Even now, Romney is afraid to take a hard anti-abortion position because his polling numbers tell him that it will probably cost him the election. So all we are left with is Mr. 666 making empty promises and compromising principles that he doesn't believe in anyway.

Multiple Choice Mitt Debates Self on Abortion
Mitt has recently been trying to comb his hair more like Reagan, believing that perhaps people will confuse him for the latter. But if the Gipper were around today, (aside from being extremely old) he would probably say to Mitt, "There you go again". See Mitt is flip flopping on abortion yet again. He is saying that he still believes abortion is murder and all, but he wouldn't seek to pass any laws about it, if he were elected president. The reason Ted Kennedy labelled Mitt "multiple-choice" on abortion is because he has always tried to be on both sides of the issue. When Mitt ran a losing Senatorial campaign against Kennedy, Romney claimed that he was "pro-choice", because "his mother was pro-choice". But then, when he wanted to run for Governor that wouldn't fly with the GOP, so he decided that he didn't give a rat's a$$ what his mother thought, and declared that he was "pro-life".
But we didn't expect him to hold that position for long, especially with the polls showing that the GOP "War on Women" has been an epic fail. So Mitt started up his Outsourced Mexican Flip Flop Factory again, and churned out his latest compromise. He's pro-life, but he promises not to act like it, as long as you vote for him. I wonder how long he's gonna hold this position. Probably about as long as it takes a pair of dollar store flip flops to wear out. In other words, about five minutes.

Big Bird Endorses Obama, Flip Mitt "the Bird"
Grouchy Mitt Romney, in addition to be a marathon liar, just like his running mate, also apparently hates little children so much that he wants to OUTSOURCE BIG BIRD. What kind of a monster does that. Apparently the same kind of monster who outsources thousands of American jobs to India, China & Mexico. Big bird has responded in kind by flipping Mitt "the Bird" and endorsing Obama. It is ridiculous to think that the paltry amounts of money that PBS gets have any significance to the National debt. This is less than a single grain of sand in a Sahara Desert of debt, mainly created by Republicans like George W. Bush, who massively cut taxes, but did not cut spending.
Virtually every major country in the world has their own national broadcasting company. Getting rid of ours in the US would therefore be as mindless as it is unnecessary. It would accomplish nothing other than to embarrass the US, and to deny education to children and information to adults. Perhaps that is really what Republicans want. To turn everyone into low information voters like them.

Free Contraception Reduces abortion 71%
This result has actually long been known in Europe where they already have free or subsidized health care, but it should also be obvious to anyone with a brain, which automatically excludes right-wing religious zealots, that increasing the amount of free contraception will dramatically decrease abortions. Now a new study conducted with almost 10,000 women in St. Louis is showing that they have a 75% lower rate of abortions when they have access to free contraception under public health care plans like that just passed under the Affordable Care Act, popularly known as Obamacare. This points to the absolute lie at the center of the Pro-lie movement, which is the ridiculous assertion that these religious fanatics actually care about babies. Indeed, if they cared about ending abortions, this would be far more effective than anything that they have managed to do so far. Yet, it is guaranteed that they will oppose such a solution, just as they have already vehemently opposed Obamacare so far, despite the fact that it does more to reduce abortions than their entire lunatic movement has in the last 40 years.

Romney Calls for Tax Break, after mocking 47% for not paying taxes
In the on-going debate between Romney and himself, the left side of Romney's mouth has now declared that we need a massive new tax break of $17,000/person, even though the right side of his mouth just got done saying that 47% of people are deadbeats for not paying any federal income tax. Of course, the main reason so many people pay so little income tax is because of George Bush's massive tax cuts, which single-handedly squandered the surplus built up under Clinton, while added trillions to the deficit. Naturally, Romney wants us to ignore how he is going to pay for this massive tax break bribery in exchange for votes, which has been the standard operating procedure for Republicans for the past couple decades. The only problem, is that the GOP only recently rediscovered the fact that the nation is massively in debt, largely due to their policies of cutting taxes while not cutting spending. They often tried to label Democrats as "Tax and Spend", but their own policy of "Tax and Borrow at high interest rates" is far more financially destructive.

Contraceptive implants, IUDs recommended for teens
This is an idea I wrote about years ago, but finally the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology has endorsed the idea that all sexually active teen girls should be getting hormonal implants or Intrauterine Devices. For self-proclaimed, right-wing opponents of "big government", this would save tens of billions of dollars normally needed for welfare assistance to unwed mothers and aid to families with dependent children. It would be a "no brainier" which normally would appeal to brain-challenged republicans, except for the fact that virtually all republicans in the USA are religious fanatics who tout extremely outdated, stone age views about the "evils" of contraception. As I have already noted, they claim that "abstinence" is better than contraception, which is equivalent to saying that cops and soldiers should be forced not to wear body armor and instead, just be told, "try not to get shot". Who but a total fool, or a fanatic, would actually go onto the battlefield without body armor to test this point? Why not both wear body armor AND try not to get shot? Also, who but a fool or a fanatic would claim that wearing body armor would make you "want to get shot more often". Yet the fools and fanatics who oppose implantable contraception say that it will just cause girls to have more sex. The reality is that teens will have sex anyway, regardless of the risk of pregnancy, and there will still be plenty of risks, such as STDs, if they fail to use condoms. But at least they won't get pregnant at 14 and end up as welfare mothers who never finish high school. At least this would be some kind of progress, but I know that self-proclaimed "conservatives" hate progress more than anything else.

Jesus had a wife. Can Catholic Priests Get Married Now?
The DaVinci Code may have prepared the general public for the idea, but scholars have long suspected that, according to the evidence in a variety of ancient manuscripts that Jesus may have had a wife. Now, yet another scrap of evidence has come to light called the Gospel of the Wife of Jesus. Unknown from this writing is who the wife of Jesus was, though many have suggested that it was Mary Magdelene. This fragmentary writing not only indicates that females can be disciples, but that the highest level of leadership in the Church are allowed to have wives. If that is true then it may be the final nail in the coffin for the Catholic arguments against females in the priesthood, and their prohibition on priests being married. Oh the times are a-changin', even in the oldest surviving bureaucracy in the world -- the Catholic church.

Romney Pays No Taxes! He's in the 47% He Mocks.
Mitt Romney mocks the 47% of Americans who end up paying no income tax, but he resembles that remark. After all, he won't release his own taxes precisely because he has paid little or no taxes for almost a decade. Indeed, according to the IRS, there are many millionaires and billionaires who pay NO income taxes. Indeed, the Bush tax cuts vastly increased the number of people who pay no income taxes, especially at the top. Of course, Mitt did it the old-fashioned way by creating sleazy tax shelters in the Caymen Islands and putting his money in Swiss bank accounts. At least the average American who ends up with all their income taxes refunded to them didn't intentionally attempt to manipulate IRS rules. It was just bad Republican tax policies that Mitt Romney supported.
However, it is misleading to say that 47% of Americans pay NO taxes. They pay payroll tax, unlike Romney because they work for a living in a real job, as opposed to just investing in companies that dispose of aborted fetuses, like Romney did with Stericycle, or companies that outsource American jobs to China, India, and Mexico.

Muslim world shoots self in foot AGAIN and again
Muslims continue mindlessly lashing out and allowing themselves to be incited/manipulated, as they cling to the flimsy excuse that they are mad about some youtube video. I've got a news flash for the Muslim world. There are tons of anti-islamic videos all over the internet. This particular one says nothing that hasn't been said a million times already.
However, by their predictable, knee jerk first resort to violence and murderous rage, blindly lashing out at anything western, be it Germans, Australians, Americans, etc they produced another self-inflicted gunshot wound to their own collective feet. They have given a wondrous gift to anti-muslims everywhere. They have promoted this anti-muslim "Innocence of Islam" film 1000 times more than it ever would have been before. They have given anti-muslim hardliners plenty of PR pictures of violent, screaming, angry muslims, which will be used to justify more persecution of the innocent and peaceful muslims who live in the US, for example.
Right-wingers will seize upon this as proof that profiling needs to be increased. They will use it as evidence that we should restrict where mosques should be allowed to be built.
At the same time, it'sabundantly clear that the Muslim world never learns from these previous experiences. Like rabid dogs, they continue to fall into the same traps over and over again. If one didn't know better, one would think that Mossad was behind these trumped up, phony outpouring of outrage, just to make the muslim community look bad. While normally the muslim community would believe any conspiracy theory about Mossad, however, this is unlikely, because the support for these activities is far more grassroots than astroturf.

Romney Would Sell Islamic Protesters Flags to Burn
Tax cheat Mitt Romney and his marathon of lies running mate Paul Ryan like to talk tough about Islamic protesters, but the only thing they would do differently than Obama is that they would secretly sell the protesters flags to burn. If you have no patriotism, like Caymen-island Mitt, and will compromise any and all of you principles, which Romney and Ryan have proven they do again and again, switching sides on pretty much any issue, then selling flags to protesters would be a pretty brisk business. You sell them, they burn them, and repeat.
After all, Romney invested in Stericycle which makes equipment to dispose of aborted fetuses. Romney claimed he was "pro-life" at the time, but that didn't stop him from wanting to cash in on abortions. He often claims that he "personally" disagreed with how the companies he invested in made their "dirty" money, but that didn't stop him from investing millions of dollars in those companies because hey, money is thicker than morals when you're a vulture capitalist, corporate raider, who would sell his own mother for $5 + stock options. So why would he hesitate about something like this? I bet he already has print-on-demand flag kiosks being installed in every major capital in the Arab world. Perhaps next he will have vending machines with rocks and molotov cocktails that protesters can hurl at our embassies.

Stop Hiding Behind Islam, You Murderous Cowards
Muslim rioters are 100% unjustified in their anti-American attacks, and they cannot hide behind Islam as any kind of justification for their cowardly behavior. America had absolutely nothing to do with some ridiculous youtube.com film about Mohammed and, even if it had been produced by Obama himself, saying something mean about someone else's religion is never sufficient, in the civilized world to justify murder. Only savages and the mentally-challenged believe that the exercise of free speech justifies murder. Of course, these theocrats don't believe in free speech or any kind of freedom for anyone to disagree with them.
They are school yard bullies who do this only riot in places where they know they are the overwhelming majority, like Egypt or Libya, and therefore they do not fear retribution. Even so, in principal, they deserve to be shot like the murderous thugs and violent lawbreakers that they are. I think that the US Secret Service should develop some more extensive and serious assets so that, when these periodic riots break out, as they seem to every year or so in the Muslim world, that we exact some payback against the perpetrators.

Muslim Bigots Way Worse than Tea Party Fanatics
We have stup1d, xenophobic big0ts in the US too. Usually those people call themselves things like Tea Partiers, or Republicans, or rednecks. But, even the craziest of our right-wing political extremists are not burning down the Saudi Embassy right now or breaking the windows at Middle Eastern restaurants all across the country. This is proof that the brainless muslim scumbags who are burning and attacking American embassies around the world are clearly way more despicable and more cowardly than US fanatic christians, and other ultra-nationalists. I say that these Muslims are completely and utter cowards, because they would not dare do this in places where they were not in the extreme majority. They only believe they can get away with it because they expect that the police in their country will be lax in enforcing the laws and because they believe that the US and its allies will be diplomatic and conciliatory, in an effort to end the riots. It's often the only option that we realistically have in places like Libya or Egypt, etc.
However, I would love it if leaders like Obama would call this hateful anti-Americanism what it is and to say something like, "This controversy is 100% without merit , the rioters are 100% unjustified, and they cannot hide behind Islam to excuse their lawbreaking and unmitigated malice toward America and the West". If Mitt Romney would even say that, it would be one thing I could possibly respect about the man.

Anti-islam film as big a fraud as islamic radicals
It's always amazing how Islamic m0r*ns run out and murder people to prove how "peace-loving" and reasonable their religion is. In doing so, they continue to discredit and embarrass their religion worse than any poorly-produced, youtube film like "Innocence of Islam" could ever do. It's also blatantly obvious that these militants hunt for any flimsy excuse to attack Americans, despite the fact that the US had absolutely, positively nothing to do with this ridiculous film. Yes, it was shot in the US, under false pretenses, by a non-American, originally calling himself Sam Bacile. However, blaming the US for that makes as much sense as blaming the nation of Italy when your pasta gets undercooked. As I have noted, the actors in the film indicate that they did not know the content of the film they were producing and words are dubbed over their performances that the actors themselves never uttered. The man who called himself Sam Bacile now appears to be a Coptic Christian named Nakoula Basseley Nakoula, who among other things, was convicted of bank fraud in the US.
So clearly the guy making the film is a fraud, but so are the millions of mor*nic marching muslims who are grasping at any straw to use the film as an excuse to attack people that they know had nothing to do with this trumped up nonsense.
It is noteworthy that only Islam believes that it can constantly get away with such behavior in the modern world. Surely Muslims publish anti-christian and anti-jewish propaganda all the time, but Christians don't run down to the Saudi embassy in Washington, DC and shoot RPGs through their windows or murder their diplomats. That's too bad, in one sense, because maybe if Christians or Jews did start bombing Muslim embassies then the muslim world would be put on notice that we were not going to put up with their stupid bull$hit anymore.

Without a change in congress things wont be different
At the flopped Republican convention that produced zero bounce in the polls for Mitt Romney, one of the questions was "If there is no change in leadership, why should the next four years be any different than the last?" Indeed we do need a change in leadership ... of the Do Nothing Republican Congress who has intentionally sabotaged the economy for the past four years, and obstructed hundreds of Bills. A huge step in this direction would be to remove Paul Ryan from Congress, since he has been one of the most partisan of obstructionists, vying to cut trillions from social security, medicare, and every other government program that makes the US a liveable, modern nation. If Obama had a democratic house to go along with the democratic senate, then he would have gotten a stimulus large enough to make the economy grow more robustly. Instead Republicans wanted zero stimulus, and then said the small stimulus was too large, and finally carped that the stimulus didn't work fast enough, even as they obstructed it and got republican governors to refuse to accept money from it to put people back to work. Yes, we need a change from our current republican leadership in the House of Reps and in governorships that tried to sabotage our economy. Then we can expect more positive results.

Sioux City SUX liars didnt build FAA airport
Republican morons have been adamant about misrepresenting what Obama said about businesses not building the public infrastructure on which their businesses rely. For example, they did not build all the post offices on which many of their businesses rely to send and receive goods and services. They did not build the school houses in which they were educated at public expense, in order to be able to scrawl propaganda on a sign that shows their ignorance of civics, and their arrogant ingratitude to those who fought and died to build this nation for them. They certainly did not build the hospital in which they were born. In a like way, they did not build the FAA registered airport at Sioux City, nor did they build all the roads and utilities around it and throughout the city that lead up to the airport and support it. They are simply liars, then when they say, "Obama...SUX. We did build this." No, you f*cking liar, you most certainly did not. At best you built a small part of a large system, and you wouldn't have been capable of building any of it 100% on your own, with no help from the country that raised and protected you. Every business that Romney has tried to use as an example to say, "We built our business entirely on our own" so far has turned out, on closer inspection, to have gotten huge amounts of money from the government in terms of loans, government contracts, and tax breaks.
These people want to claim 100% credit for everything good in their lives, and paradoxically, every misfortune is attributed to Obama. You can't have it both ways. Either you really are 100% self-made, which is doubtful, in which case it wouldn't matter who the president is or what he does, or you are not self-made in which case you need to stop lying and saying that you built 100% of your own success.

Romney declares defeat on trying to blame obama for economy
It's pretty hilarious, but Mitt Romney has spent months, and tens of millions of dollars trying to sell the lie that all woes in the present economy are the fault of Barrack Obama. Unfortunately, he still trails in the polls, indicating that voter's just aren't buying his message. They don't believe it's all Obama's fault, because at least Obama has tried to do something, whereas the Republican answer, if you can even call it that, is to do nothing and/or obstruct everything. Doing nothing and blocking any meaningful progress on anything for the past four years has arguably created more economic devastation than any specific program Mr. Obama could possibly implement, no matter how poorly conceived such a program might be.
In any event, apparently Team Romney has offically called it quits on this strategy of trying to hammer on the economy, since it is has proven to be such a non-starter for their campaign. Of course, in classic Romney fashion, after admitting that this strategy is "not sufficient to propel Mr. Romney to victory", they say that they will still talk about it, but that it just won't be their primary focus. In other words, they really don't know what the eff they will do, but one see their move toward fringe birtherism and other kooky culture war issues as a sign of things to come. It also telegraphs their utter desperation to generate any kind of message that people can take seriously.
