"PLEASE STOP REMINDING PEOPLE ABOUT MY PAST, IT WOULD REALLY HELP MY CAMPAIGN..."

Basically, Mitt Romney is such a big pussy, he can't even handle being held accountable. So, when China invades Taiwan, is Mitt gonna ask them "Pretty Please?"

“The governor was expressing his view that he hopes we can have a campaign focused on the issues rather than one of desperation and lies as we’ve seen from the Obama campaign,” Saul said in an e-mail.

Romney ran for potus on the platform that his business acumen would translate to running the country. But now he demands that no one investigate or examine how he ran the business he is basing those claims on.

He's also repudiated the only major accomplishment of his time as Governor.

So on what basis is he supposed to be qualified to be POTUS? He's rich and he knows other rich white guys?

I'm not sure exactly what race has to do with it unless you're trying to infer that anyone that doesn't vote for Pretender Obama hates people of mixed race.

It seems to me that the current failure-in-chief knows a few rich white guys (A bunch of them contributed to his campaign and the DNC).

I do know that it completes the lefty "debate strategy" tri-fecta.

It had nothing to do with Birther-ism. Didn't you get the memo that Ofailure's grandmother was white?

Accusing the President of not being legally Preident ("Pretender") is not birther? What exactly are you trying to claim?

I was referring to the fact that he wasn't up to the job; that he was out of his element; that he's been "playing at" or "pretending" to be a leader.

As has happened before, you assumed a position for me. This is not to say that I am not a "birther" (by your standards, I guess). I do question the length of time it took to produce "appropriate" documents but, that was not my intent with that post.

No, sadly, he's a pretender because he has enjoyed the oval office and "Hail To The Chief" every time he walks into a room and he doesn't deserve the laurels, based upon his dismall, ineffective performance.

Is it really that hard for you to say: "Oh, I mistook your meaning"? Really? You "accused" (note the quotations which means "for lack of a better word") me of being a racist and you just wish to gloss over it?

Take this as a compliment, as it is meant: I expected better from you.

Ummm....wasn't BUSH the one who started the auto industry bailout? Additionally, Obama helped to create the financial implosion due to how he voted to prevent transparancy for Fannie Mae/Freddy Mac

Not a good thing in my book. It wasn't specific enough and left a lot of things up to whoever was director of the HHS.

Again, not a good thing in my book.

Didn't he promise to uphold and defend the laws of this country during his inauguration? He is shirking his duties by refusing to uphold DOMA.

There wasn't a ban on federal funding of stem cell research. There was a ban on federal funding of EMBRYONIC stem cell research, which is a GOOD thing because the only thing that comes out of it is death and tumors (besides it being morally repugnant to many Americans). If there was money to be made in cures/treatments from embryonic stem cell research, they wouldn't need government money because the private sector would be funding it (as is often the case with adult stem cell research).
