Tea Party and GOP corruption starts with Romney & Ryan and lies they told us about who they'll serve and who they won't. Lies of "omission", like hidden budget cuts, are equal to lies of "commission", like telling the rich one thing and the rest of America another.
They're up to his necks in The Lying Game. What they say is all part of the larger GOP strategy. Believe me, Ryan "takes direction" in order to "stay on" the Republican message. He must "sing the GOP song" to be a GOP candidate. All across the nation, millionaires are backing these liars. They want full control in order to create the final divide between rich and poor. "Us and them". Their misjudgment? A lot of that 47% they despise is part of working America; students working their way through college, single moms restarting their lives with their first job since high school and truly poor mothers, working while the kids are at school, just to buy fuel oil for this winter and food for the day. These are proud Americans. Romney has just stolen their pride, their will power and more...their dignity. Men like Romney, Ryan and Republican candidates for Congress have no place in the seats of government (at any level) making decisions for "all Americans". They only have experience with the "jet set" and their "country club" members. That's okay, if you're running for Prom Queen, but the responsibilities here are far reaching and their vision does not include all Americans, as we've just found out.

I'd sooner welcome Juggalos and Insane Clown Posse.
Ed Fisher September 19, 2012 at 05:16 pm
couldn't have said it better, Gramps and Paul !
Melissa Bysura September 19, 2012 at 06:47 pm
Hehehehe.... Insane Clown Posse.... classic! Lol

First off, Gramps according to the NYT a majority of people earning more than 250K a year supported Obama in 2008http://economix.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/11/11/how-did-rich-people-vote-and-why/
Your post is a caricature of what one would expect to find in The Onion.
Earl Boggs September 19, 2012 at 10:12 pm
Hate and ignorance is shown by someone such as yourself. Obviously you can't even stand up and put a name on a post, so why would anyone care what rant you are on about? Go back to school and learn how spell your name instead of just "making your mark".
Melissa Bysura September 19, 2012 at 11:30 pm
Michael,
Work on learning second grade punctuation and then come back with a point of view that makes sense. And if you want to quote percentages.... 100% of under educated people don't know how to spell or punctuate properly. :)~
Ed Fisher September 19, 2012 at 11:43 pm
Yeah, just keep on buying in to the lies. Mitt tipped his hand.....You see, I'm one of those "laying on their asses" . I'm retired, living on SS (not disability) and I work part time. I pay taxes each week but get it all back cause I don't make much. Like so many others that make such low wages. So Mitt has written me off......and apparently, so have you. But, hopefully, the majority of people don't think guys like me are deadbeats, and Mitt can go live off his millions when he loses.
John McMillan September 20, 2012 at 12:16 am
If you seriously believe that 47% of Americans are "laying on their asses" then you are sadly ignorant, as well as brainwashed. Do you really think that this candidate cares about you, unless you are fortunate enough to be financially independent? I agree with Ed Fisher, Romney has really tipped his hand. Add that misstep to his other ill-stated comments...how do you think world diplomacy will be affected when Mitt blubbers another "gem" during international discussions? He is too dangerous to be trusted with foreign policy.
John McMillan September 20, 2012 at 12:25 am
I agree Melissa. And it makes me wonder why undereducated, middle-class voters are gung ho on Romney? What is the real reason? For one thing, "socialism" is used as a buzzword by the GOP to scare people into voting against Obama. It's just such nonsensical propaganda. It makes me sad to think that so many people are so easily led to believe such false information.
Rick Uldricks September 20, 2012 at 12:46 am
I would wager that Juggalos who actually pay taxes, pay at a higher rate than Romney. But there's no way of knowing for certain since Willard refuses to release his tax returns.
Brian Andrews September 20, 2012 at 01:20 am
40 odd months of 8% + unemployment might be a reason. Others might point to the four trillion in new debt Obama has added in his first term which is more than Bush added in eight years. Or the Record number of Americans now on food stamps and applying for disability payments. These facts might give hardworking people pause.
How about the pathetic economic growth? Household income has declined throughout Obama's time. Grown adults on there parents health insurance force. I could go on but I'll stop with the news of the day. SRN News reports that six million Americans can expect to be fined on average $1,200 this year by the IRS for not buying healthcare.

This is an interesting article about the 47% that Mitt is blasting:

Dan Marol September 20, 2012 at 01:41 am
Brian-
Don't forget this one: When Obama took office, we were bleeding 750,000 jobs per month. Now we have 21 straight months of private sector job growth. Awful, isn't it?
Curtis Mayberry September 20, 2012 at 02:24 am
These are the lies that ignorant people take as truth then spew out to others, like here, as if they know they are facts. I feel sad for you, you have been misguided by a very corrupt party if you really believe any of that. I will only address two points because I haven't the time to re educate you.
Four trillion in debt really, like the two wars Bush started and did not pay for and then Obama did pay for them and bam, you wonder where the debt came from, Duh! Second do you have any real idea how bad off we were in 2008 before Obama was elected? What Obama did was stop the bottom from falling any further, period. You think in 4 years you can gain that much ground after such a fall? How long did it take us to get out of the great depression? Almost three times that, oh that's 12 years for you sir. As for healthcare, we are the only industrialized nation in the world without universal healthcare, does that say anything to you sir? Why do we let these huge healthcare providers profit off our sick citizens anyhow, its gross and totally corrupt or as Mitt might say "a good day at the office". Sometimes I wonder what planet the GOP and their supporters think we live on or what planet they wish to turn Earth into, oh wait I bet you believe the Earth is flat too?
Shelley September 20, 2012 at 03:00 am
Dan, if that were true he would be shouting it from the rafters! Individual states that put smart Governors in place in 2010 have seen private sector growth about 21 months ago. But, each job created by stimulus money has cost about a million apiece. There have been more deaths of soldiers on his watch than any other President. He makes nice with the Muslim Brotherhood and blames a poorly edited Youtube video from June for coordinated attacks on US embassies on 9/11. I'd rather work for a dream. I've achieved one before. I know what it feels like. Now I'm poor again. That's the difference between people under and over 40. You don't remember what it was like to be the #1 country in the world. We all have to work together. Agree to disagree and get along for the common good.People need to get over themselves & look at the big picture of the WHOLE country that needs to be fixed. It's not about me or you! It's about the USA. Get your pride on. My parents, probably your grandparents went to their cupboards and gave, not sold, didn't whine, just gave their aluminum pots and pans to make weapons to win WW2 a few years ago. They all used food ration coupons to make sure everyone had a little of everything. That's the American spirit. Not gimme or I'll throw a fit! It's crunch time in America again. Nat'l debt is choking us. We can't go on like this and that's Obama's plan. Our AAA+ credit went to AA- on his cash give away. It must stop. I voted for him & I feel duped.

Dan the nation's work force has shrunk under President Obama back to mid 1980 levels not withstanding our population growth. If the country were really adding jobs the work force would be expanding not contracting. In fact if you broaden out the unemployment rate to included working age people who have given up looking for work the unemployment rate shoots up to almost 15%
Brian Andrews September 20, 2012 at 10:16 am
Curtis, your dispute is not with me but President Obama. He is the one who promised to cut Bush’s deficits in half – going as far as to describing Bush’s deficits as “Unpatriotic”. He doubled the nation’s deficit.
Obama is the one who claimed that if we passed his $900Billion stimulus unemployment would drop below 6%. We’re into 40 + months of 8%+ unemployment rate with know end in sight. Obama insisted that if he could not cut the deficit, lower unemployment, and get the country’s economy growing that he should be a one term president. The President and I agree, by his own standards he should be a one term president.
Rick Uldricks September 20, 2012 at 11:20 am
But is Romney really the guy for the job? The field of Republican candidates was awful and Romney was what they came up with. It seems many Republicans don't really like him much either.
After watching the GOP Convention, it seems that 2016 might offer GOP candidates that are more appealing than Romney - Christie, Rubio, etc. Wouldn't a Romney win throw a monkey wrench into any plans for them to run? I'm a registered Democrat, but I sure would have appreciated better options.
Elayne September 20, 2012 at 02:15 pm
Will someone standup and tell the americans the truth! The transparent media cover-up has been almost as bad as the pathetic White House denials. Guess a lot of you undecideds have forgotten about FORT HOOD ( TEXAS) yea just a bit long ago for the short memory (2009) major NIDAL MALIK HASAN shot and killed 13 innocent people he was doing it for the defense of Islamc suicide bombers. The white House refered it to WORK PLACE Violence. Now Susan Rice Obama employee said the killing of OUR Ambassador was in result of a MOVIE. This administration is willing to sell you a heap of lies to get your vote, Educate get off the fence and do what will be the best for you 4 yrs down the road.
Mike S September 20, 2012 at 05:58 pm
Then, there is my personal favorite. Solyndra. $ 500 million of taxpayer money - GONE.
Personally, I am less concerned about what Romey does with his money and much more concerned about what Obama does with mine. Worst president in the history of this country.

Click on the link below and get the first glimpse of a change in the thinking of the CBS News team....this is the most positive segment that CBS has ever had on an opponent of Barack Obama. It is short, but makes the point being missed by most of Romney's critics.

To my knowledge, the TEA Party rallies have NEVER had an arrest. Isn't it amazing that the "Occupy Rallies" which Democrats have endorsed, have had thousands of arrests. And the mainstream media downplays this.
Journalism died in 2008 with the election of Obama.

I sure as heck hope Americans will be smart voters and REALLY look at how our current president (yes, that is Obama) views OUR country and is advocating for CHANGE to OUR country that is NOT in the best interests of the future of OUR country. Please vote responsibly and vote for Romney / Ryan -- unless, of course, you just don't REALLY care about what it means to be a second-string player in today's volatile world. Future generations of Americans will truly THANK YOU for standing up and voting for Romney / Ryan -- voting for a STRONGER AMERICA!
Jeff Christensen September 21, 2012 at 05:00 pm
Keith are you sure you wanna use "Never", "endorsed" and "died".
Those are some harsh absolutes on facts for items which are nothing more than opinions.
jiim may September 24, 2012 at 11:44 am
Heres the truth, it doesnt matter who gets in. The office of the president is a complete joke. Neither care for the people ( except the rich). Wall street controls the strings!!! If they did care, one of the first things they would do, they would take oil off commodities!!!

What about center ridge and clague (currently an old gas station)?
Carol Cordova June 17, 2013 at 07:40 pm
No, it is kitty-corner to the existing gas station & is new construction
