Obama & Romney Campaign Pins

President Obama Is Lifted In The Air By Scott Van Duzer, At The Big Apple Pizza Which He Owns In Ft. Pierce, Florida
When President Obama stopped in at the Big Apple Pizza in Ft. Pierce, Florida, he was greeted with a hug and lifted up in the air by the owner, Scott Van Duzer. Because of what Duzer did, he is getting a lot of flack from the Republican crazies, who need to get a life, and stop acting like the pathetic assholes that they are.

Bill Clinton WTF
What made Bill Clinton make a statement, calling for the Bush era tax cuts be extended. Of course the orange coated John Boehner was all giddy, along with the other GOPers. Now the Obama White House is quite pissed about it, and I don’t blame them one bit, as Obama has been wanting the rich to pay more taxes.

Karl Rove Attacking Elizabeth Warren / Huffington Post
Karl Rove is at already at it, when he and his billionaire friends put TV attack ads, concerning Elizabeth Warren. What kind of dirt and lies can Rove come up with, when she’s an honest and very smart woman.
A Karl Rove-backed group has made the first major ad buy in the Massachusetts Senate contest between Democratic challenger Elizabeth Warren and Republican incumbent Scott Brown, according to state Democratic sources. Few details are available on the buy, and Rove didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment. The ad, said the sources, is an attack on Warren. Read more…
Maine Voters Restore Same-Day Registration / WMTW Ch 8
The voters in Maine told the Republicans that they wanted to keep same day voter registration, that has been a law since 1973. The Republican led legislature passed a law earlier this year, that all new voters, could only register two days before the election(s).
Maine voters have repealed a law requiring voters to enroll at least two days before an election, restoring a four-decade policy of allowing registrations as late as Election Day.
With 30 percent of Maine’s precincts reporting, the proposal to repeal the newly enacted two-day requirement was passed with 59 percent of the vote. Read more…

Letting People Die, Because Of Little Or No Insurance
What the hell has gone wrong, with the way people think? It was damn sickening to read, watch and hear the people in the audience at the Tea Party Republican Debate in Tampa. When CNN’s Wolf Blitzer asked Ron Paul the question; a person in the hospital that has no insurance, do you just let him die, and the nutty asshole Tea Baggers clapped and thought it was funny.
The same thing last week in Simi Valley, when Brian Williams pointed out that 234 people under Perry’s watch, have been executed including an innocent man in Texas, which leads the nation on the death penalty scorecard, again, the audience clapped, like it was a big joke.
Why isn’t the media calling out on these Bozos for the way they are acting. I’m sure if it was an all Democratic audience, and they clapped and hooted at their candidates, Fox News and Limbaugh would be all over it.
Politics was always dirty, but never this dirty.
Elizabeth Warren To Run For Massachusetts Senate

Its About Time Obama, That You Gave Them Hell
I caught the last 20 minutes of Obama’s jobs speech, and from what I saw and gathered, he’s had enough of Congress’s bullshit. Now if the thick-headed Tea Party led Republicans got that heads out of the sand, and realize that the obstructions that they believe in come to a complete stop, and start doing the job they were elected to do, is to work for the people who put them in office, and not do the work for the big corporations, the banks and their millionaire & billionaire friends.
Watching John Boehner, it looked like he didn’t know whether to cry or shit is pants, or both. Whenever he applauded, it was half heartedley, like he it was a big bother to do it.
GOP Taking Whacks at Obama for Taking Vacation(s)
The Republicans are at it again for Obama taking a three day vacation or campaign stump in the Mid-West, but they say he should be in Washington instead.
So far, since Obama took office, he has taken 61 days off in 31 months in office. In the same amount of time, George W. Bush took 180 vacation days off to spend in Crawford, Texas, and Ronald Reagan 112 vacation days at his ranch in California
How soon the Republicans forget about their past presidents, but are quick to point out a when a Democratic president takes theirs.
Childish!
The Koch Spider Web / Truthout
The Koch Brothers have their finger prints all over the way they are ruining this country, and it needs to be stopped.
An election took place last fall in Virginia that didn’t garner national attention, but it should have – not for the candidates or issues – but for the giant pile of corporate cash manipulating events behind the scenes.
Richard Boucher, a then-28-year incumbent Democratic Congressman from the Ninth District – the longest – serving Congressman in that district since the Civil War – was surprisingly defeated by Republican Morgan Griffith. Read more
Obama Walks Out Of Tense Debt Ceiling Talks
President Obama walked out of the Debt Ceiling meeting, as Eric Cantor was being very rude. It was reported that Cantor interrupted Obama three times, while the President was wrapping things up. Canto claims that Obama stormed out, but Nancy Pelosi says that is not true, and was really pissed off on how Cantor was acting. By the way, Cantor has already walked out twice on Obama. Cantor should grow up, act like an adult, or get the hell out of Washington.

Over the last few years, the media has been filled with speculation about the assassination of Dr. Tiller and the Tucson shootings.

Sarah Palin Calls Obama a Liar
Sarah Palin calls President Obama and Nancy Pelosi liars, and says the Republicans are trying to “save” Medicare while the Democrats are killing it. Ms. Palin called the President a liar. This woman, who has told the truth less often than she tells lies, this person who lies about the weather in her own book, this serial liar, has called the President a liar on national TV.

Roll Call: Ryan Defends Budget Blueprint
House Republican Paul Ryan defends his budget blueprint, medicare overhaul.
Wisconsin Rep Paul Ryan (R)
In a speech before the Economic Club of Chicago, the Wisconsin Republican maintained, “We cannot avert a debt crisis unless we directly address the rising cost of health.”
snip—
Ryan said his plan to overhaul Medicare would “give power to deny business to inefficient providers. [Democrats] plan is to give government the power to deny care to seniors.”
Republican Governors are Jealous of Obama
When Florida Governor Rick Scott refused to take money from the Obama administration for high speed rail, he said that it would ‘create Palinsque like death panels’. He’s the same governor who said ‘that if Florida accepted the money, and built the rail line, there would be a catch to it.’ In essence, the state of Florida would end up paying for it, which was not true.
Walker of Wisconsin, came up with some lame excuse not to take the money, to improve the rail system between Milwaukee and Madison, so as to cut down on the length of time.
So the money they refused to take, along with Ohio, some of that money was awarded to Massachusetts, Maine and a couple of other states, that want to improve their rail lines.
I’m hopeful that the voters in the Republican states, either recall, or vote them out in 2012, and never to be heard from again.
Rachel Maddow Calling Out on Conservative Media Bias
Rachel Maddow, makes a good point about Conservative media bias, on the Sunday morning talk show. It was a ratio of 3-1, in favor of the talking heads, from the Bush adminisration. A total of nine Republicans and only 3 Democrats were on the shows this past Sunday.
Right Wing False Talk Won’t Fly on Bill Maher’s Show
Bill Maher has had enough of the right wing false and negativity talk on his show, and he wants to put a stop to it. David Frum was putting his usual Republican spin on it, but Maher and Michael Eric Dyson would have none of it.
With Eliot Spitzer not taking any bullshit from John Yoo, formerly with the Bush administration, with his nonsense on how Obama went about wrong on nailing Bin Laden, and saying Bush was the one who knew how to fight terrorism, when in fact, Bush called off the CIA operation in 2005.
Its good to see that Maher and Spitzer can see right through these guys.
Paul Ryan Trying to Accuse ThinkProgress of “Stacking the Crowds”
Paul Ryan R-Wisconsin
Paul Ryan, the anointed budget writer for the GOP led House, accuses ThinkProgress of “Stacking Crowds” at his town hall meetings in his home state of Wisconsin.
When the Democrats was having their town hall meetings in 2009, it was alright for the Tea Baggers, and other right wing loons, to scream, shout, and wreak all kinds of havoc. But when the Republicans have town hall meetings, they say people are bussed in to disrupt them, and its not right to do that. Well Ryan, all I can say is “Pay Back is a Bitch.”
Republicans Want to Give George Bush Credit for the Taking Down of bin Laden
The Republicans want us to believe that it is President Obama’s fault for the economy to go in the tank. But with the recent take down of Osama bin Laden, they want to give the credit to George W. Bush. Back in 2005, Bush gave up on going after bin Laden. Of course he won the election in 2004, so why did he give a crap if they found him or not.
Crooks and Liars has good take on what the Bush administration was doing about it, or not doing about it. In 2008, Obama made the promise that he would hunt him down, and he kept his promise. A president with a spine.

Afraid To Face Angry Voters, Rep. Paul Ryan Sneaks Out A Back Door After Raucous Town Hall
Paul Ryan can take the heat at his ‘town hall meetings’ as he slipped out another door after the meeting was over, because the car he came in was surrounded by angry protesters. He also got upset, because the people in the hall, were getting loud, and he asked them to tone it down, or else they can leave. But it was alright when the Democrats were being heckled and shouted down, by the Tea Party jerks.

Something is Rotten in the State of Wisconsin: 7,500 New GOP Votes From ‘Human Error’. Shouldn’t DOJ Step In?
This smells a lot like what happened in the 2000 Florida debacle. The Waukesha County clerk announced the results in the Wisconsin Supreme Court election was mistaken, and she came up the new vote tally for that county. The DOJ should be looking into her shenanigans, as she has been in deep shit before, and to me she is not one to be trusted.
