What the Obama Administration does not want you to see
by Greta Van Susteren
Oct 27 2012 - 5:57 PM ET
There were many security cameras at the Benghazi US Consulate. One camera was positioned to (and did) record Ambassador Stevens, on September 11, saying good night at 8:40pm Libya time to a Turkish Diplomat.
The video from this camera – I am told – shows (and proves) there was NO PROTEST outside our Consulate. The Obama Administration had that tape immediately and they knew what it showed and knew it immediately. Anyone who watched the video observed the obvious.
Don’t you think the Obama Administration should release that video so that the American people can see for themselves what REALLY happened and not what the Obama Administration tried to feed them in the weeks after the terrorist attack? They won’t release the tape – in fact, they are hiding the video tape from you by classifying it so that it remains out of our reach. Frankly, that is the oldest trick in the book – classify it. They don’t want you to see the tape and they don’t want you to know what THEY KNEW RIGHT AWAY.
The Obama Administration doesn’t even have to release the entire tape (although they should) — I just want to see the few minutes before our Ambassador and the Turkish Diplomat walked out of the Consulate….and a few minutes after the Turkish Diplomat leaves and the Ambassador returns insides.
If the Obama Administration won’t release the video — how about still frames from the video? How could they deny the American people at least that now?
Releasing the video (or stills from the video) now would in no way jeopardize the Obama Administration’s internal investigation. The video is what the video is. If someone appears in the who might have reason not to have his identity disclosed (security), his of her face can be blurred. That is simple.
Release the video would be a good faith showing that the White House is not hiding anything and really does believe in the transparency the President promised when he ran in 2008.
What do you think? Should the President release the video from that camera? Don’t the American people deserve the straight story with supporting evidence?
And, more importantly, isn’t that the DECENT thing to do for the families of the 4 murdered? Should they not have answers?

Biden to Father of NAVY SEAL Who Was Killed

Jason Howerton
The father of one of the former Navy SEALs killed in the terrorist attack on the U.S. mission in Benghazi, Libya says President Barack Obama wouldn’t even look him in the eye and Vice President Joe Biden was disrespectful during the ceremony when his son’s body returned to America. He also says the White House’s story on the attack doesn’t pass the smell test.
Charles Woods, father of Tyrone Woods, called into “The Glenn Beck Program” on TheBlazeTV Thursday and recounted his interactions with the president, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Biden at the ceremony for the Libya victims at Andrews Air Force Base in Maryland. He told host Glenn Beck that what they told him, coupled with new reports that indicate the Obama administration knew very good and well, almost immediately, that a terrorist attack was occurring in Benghazi, make him certain that the American people are not getting the whole truth.
Vice President Biden, as he has become known to do, reportedly made a wildly inappropriate comment to the father who had just lost his hero son.
Woods said Biden came over to his family and asked in a “loud and boisterous” voice, “Did your son always have balls the size of cue balls?”
“Are these the words of someone who is sorry?” said Woods.

Obama must be defeated!
What we must do
Obama must be defeated in eleven days. That is not saying anything that we do not already know. There are a lot of very good reasons why Obama must go. But there is one reason in particular why Obama must not only go but must be crushed.
What is this new and overwhelming reason why Obama must go?
All this year, James O’Keefe of Project Veritas has been providing damning video after damning video showing how easy voter fraud is in America. He even sent someone into a polling place to obtain Eric Holder’s ballot.
Now in his most recent effort, he sent an under cover operative into the office of Congressman Jim Moran of Virginia. Moran, as you might guess is a star member of the Party of Treason. He is one of the most left wing members of Congress and a member of the Congressional Communist Caucus. Oops, I meant the Congressional Progressive Caucus. What a pity truth in advertising laws do not apply to Congress.
The undercover operative went into Moran’s office and told them he had a list of 100 people who were not likely to vote, so he wanted to uphold a time honored Democrat tradition of voting early and voting often.
He met with Pat Moran in the campaign, who happens to be the son of Jim Moran. While Pat Moran encouraged the undercover operative to help with get out the vote activities, he also offered to help the undercover operative forge utility bills. Virginia has a joke of a voter ID law. A utility bill, which can be easily forged, is acceptable identification. The Virginia law was such a joke that Eric Holder did not even bother to challenge it.
Moran offered help saying, “faking the utility bill would be easy enough.” Then Moran assures the undercover operative that a DNC attorney would represent him if issues came up.
Where do you start with this?
How many examples of voter fraud do we need before we do the obvious? Every state should require a photo ID for voting. Don’t give me the lame excuses about some mythical person who might have a problem getting an ID to vote with. You need a photo ID now days to do anything more complicated than breathing.
The real issue here is the Democrat Party follows the words of one of their heroes, Joseph Stalin. The Soviet leader once said, “Its not who votes that counts, but who counts the votes.” The modern version of Stalin’s dictum is that the Democrats do not have to worry about any election because they can steal the elections.
Election theft is what this is really about. Democrats stole the 2008 election that put Al Franken in the Senate. They have stolen other elections and came perilously close to stealing the 2000 election for Al Gore.
Conservatives have to stand up and demand two things immediately. The first is nation wide photo voter ID laws that will make it impossible for fraudulent voting. The other thing that must happen is that we must do away with these computerized voting machines and go back to a system that leaves a paper trail that can be audited and is not subject to being hacked.
The Party of Treason does not want any of these things. They want to be able to steal this election. Mitt Romney must not only win this election, but he must win it beyond the margin of fraud.
If Barack Obama is reelected, we may never see another fair and free election in this country.
But then again, that is what the Democrats want.
Obama pays price for back pedaling on Libya attack

Obama pays price for back pedaling on Libya attack
Posted by Staff
If Barack Obama fails in his bid for a second term as president, historians and political analysts will spend years trying to answer why and how he and his administration so badly mishandled the attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya.
The question will linger for many years: Since it was clear that he and his team knew that Islamist militants were to blame, why did the president move off of his initial response and try to minimize the role of al Qaeda?
Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney felt the need to stay statesmanlike and focus on his own credentials as commander-in-chief more than prosecuting Obama’s ongoing struggle in their final debate. But as the clock ticks toward Election Day, the debacle in Benghazi and the botched public response to it have proven to be one of the embattled incumbent’s greatest liabilities anyway.
A president who had hoped to make foreign policy a central point in his re-election case instead is confronted with a stream of evidence that the raid might have been foiled with adequate security and that the story Obama and his team told the public about the attack being a spontaneous event was at odds with lots of evidence to the contrary.

Insanity
Laura Ingraham @IngrahamAngle
The Definition of Insanity: States with Highest tax burdens in nation--NY, NJ, CT, Cali...all will invariably vote for Obama. Embarrassment.
Do I Have This Right?
I didn't realize Clinton was disbarred but he was by Arkansas.
He also paid a $25,000.00 fine there; this was all over the Lewinski incident.
He also paid an $850,000.00 settlement over the Lewinski incident.
He was also disbarred from practicing law in front of the Supreme Court.
So Bill Clinton, a disbarred lawyer, a President who was impeached for lying under oath, asks the American people to believe him when he says the best thing for the Country is 4 more years of Obama.
Just wanted to make sure I had it right!

NY Times Caught Editing Story On Iran Nuclear Negotiations After White House Denial
The White House scrambled late Saturday to deny a New York Times report claiming Iran has agreed to meet directly with U.S. officials to discuss its nuclear program, sending New York Times editors rushing to quietly but substantially revise their initial reporting on a key foreign policy issue for the second time in as many months.
According to the Times, which anonymously quoted senior administration officials, Iran told diplomats it wanted to wait until after the November presidential election to put plans for the meeting in motion.
“It has the potential to help Mr. Obama make the case that he is nearing a diplomatic breakthrough in the decade-long effort by the world’s major powers to curb Tehran’s nuclear ambitions,” the Times report said.
Third Presidential Debate
President Grumpypants
The third and final Presidential debate happened last night. With the final debate over, we run into the last two weeks of the campaign. Did either side deliver a fatal blow to the other last night? Will there be a major change? What one shocking thing can we say about the debate that you probably are not hearing anyplace else?
Last night, Mitt Romney looked like President Romney and Barack Obama looked like President Grumpypants.
Obama looked like a pouting three year old during most of the debate. He kept interrupting Mitt Romney, speaking over Mitt Romney and just trying keep Romney from getting a word in edgewise.
At the end of the debate, Twitter seemed to explode with comments from people who wanted to hear Romney and were irritated with Obama.
Bob Scheiffer of CBS News was the host. Having learned the lesson from Candy Crowly, did not interrupt nor did he fact check Mitt Romney. Though he did interrupt Romney more than Obama. Perhaps more importantly, he protected Obama by not bringing up the “Fast and furious” scandal.
Barack Obama came in aggressive and he lied. He lied about Mitt Romney’s statements about the 2008 auto industry bailout. He lied about not cutting the military budget. He lied about the budget sequestration, trying to blame that on Congress.
In fact, all of the big lies came from Obama. These were not obvious lies but if you study body language, they became obvious. One of the things body language experts will tell you is that when someone is lying, they will tell you one thing, but subconsciously shake their heads no. When Barack Obama was saying he had Israel’s back and would stand with Israel, he was shaking his head no. When he said he wanted a strong America, he was shaking his head no.
For those who think that is fantasy, look how Obama has treated Israel and for that matter our allies and America’s military.
Perhaps the most stunning part of the debate was the amount on the time that was spent on domestic financial issues. This is Romney’s strong suite and arguably, Obama’s weakest. Why Obama was so willing to spend time on this topic, when foreign affairs is a topic an incumbent President should be able to dominate a challenger is simply stunning.
Is Obama so delusional he thinks economics is his strong suit?
At the end of the day, the issue is going to be who the President is in 2013.
When you have a failed Presidency like Obama’s, the question for the American people becomes, how comfortable are you with the challenger? Americans have decided they do not like Obama. The question is, can they trust Mitt Romney?
After the three debates, there is no question Mitt Romney won the debates.
After the debates, Obama remains below 50% in many crucial states. Obama cannot close the deal. Everyone in politics knows that 90% of the undecided are going to vote against the incumbent.
The undecided will go for Romney.
Just wait to see the polls in the next few days. The surge for Romney will accelerate. This morning Dick Morris predicted that Mitt Romney would win in a landslide.
I don’t always agree with Dick Morris but when I do, he’s right. Stay tuned my friends.
This is going to be a Romney landslide.

U.N. organization to monitor US polling places
Posted by Staff
The United Nations-affiliated Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe will deploy election monitors around the United States on Election Day in an effort to monitor conservative groups for voter suppression or intimidation at polling places.
Led by Ambassador Daan Everts, the election monitors will include a total of 57 international experts and observers — 13 placed in Washington, D.C. and 44 placed at polling places on other cities.
The monitors, from Europe and central Asia, will not limit their observation to noting possible violations of U.S. and sate election law. They will also “assess these elections for compliance with international obligations and standards for democratic election” and “conduct comprehensive monitoring of the media,” according to a press release.

Why Mitt Romney is Unlikable
A lot is being said in the media about Mitt Romney not being "likable" or that he doesn't "relate well" to people. Frankly, we struggled to understand why.
So after much research, we have come up with a Top Ten List to explain this "unlikablility."
Top Ten Reasons To Dislike Mitt Romney:
1. Drop-dead, collar-ad handsome with gracious, statesmanlike aura. Looks like every central casting's #1 choice for Commander-in-Chief.
2. Been married to ONE woman his entire life, and has been faithful to her, including through her bouts with breast cancer and MS.
3. No scandals or skeletons in his closet. (How boring is that?)
4. Can't speak in a fake, southern, "black preacher voice" when necessary.
5. Highly intelligent. Graduated cum laude from both Harvard Law School and Harvard Business School...and by the way, his academic records are NOT sealed.
6. Doesn't smoke or drink alcohol, and has never done drugs, not even in the counter-culture age when he went to college. Too square for today's America?
7. Represents an America of "yesterday", where people believed in God, went to Church, didn't screw around, worked hard, and became a SUCCESS!
8. Has a family of five great sons....and none of them have police records or are in drug rehab. But of course, they were raised by a stay-at-home mom, and that "choice" deserves America's scorn.
9. Oh yes.....he's a MORMON. We need to be very afraid of that very strange religion that teaches its members to be clean-living, patriotic, fiscally conservative, charitable, self-reliant, and honest.
10. And one more point.....pundits say because of his wealth, he can't relate to ordinary Americans. I guess that's because he made that money HIMSELF.....as opposed to marrying it or inheriting it from Dad. Apparently, he didn't understand that actually working at a job and earning your own money made you unrelatable to Americans.
My goodness, it's a strange world, isn't it?
*****************************************************
Personal Information:
His full Name is: Willard Mitt Romney
He was Born: March 12, 1947 and is 65 years old.
His Father: George W. Romney, former Governor
of the State of Michigan
He was raised in Bloomfield Hills , Michigan
He is Married to Ann Romney since 1969; they five children.
Education:
B.A. from Brigham Young University,
J.D. and M.B.A. from Harvard University
Religion:
Mormon - The Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter-Day Saints
Working Background:
After high school, he spent 30 months in France as a
Mormon missionary.
After going to both Harvard Business School and
Harvard Law School simultaneously, he passed the Michigan bar exam, but never worked as an attorney.
In 1984, he co-founded Bain Capital a private equity
investment firm, one of the largest such firms in the
United States.
In 1994, he ran for Senator of Massachusetts and lost
to Ted Kennedy.
He was President and CEO of the 2002 Winter Olympic
Games.
In 2002, he was elected Governor of the State of
Massachusetts where he eliminated a 1.5 billion deficit.
Some Interesting Facts about Romney:
Bain Capital, starting with one small office supply store in Massachusetts, turned it into Staples; now over 2,000 stores employing 90,000 people.
Bain Capital also worked to perform the same kinds
of business miracles again and again, with companies
like Domino's, Sealy, Brookstone, Weather Channel,
Burger King, Warner Music Group, Dollarama,
Home Depot Supply and many others.
He was an unpaid volunteer campaign worker for
his dad's gubernatorial campaign 1 year.
He was an unpaid intern in his dad's governor's
office for eight years.
He was an unpaid bishop and state president of
his church for ten years.
He was an unpaid President of the Salt Lake
Olympic Committee for three years.
He took no salary and was the unpaid Governor of
Massachusetts for four years.
He gave his entire inheritance from his father to charity.
Mitt Romney is one of the wealthiest self-made men
in our country but has given more back to its citizens
in terms of money, service and time than most men.
And in 2011 Mitt Romney gave over $4 million to charity, almost 19% of his income.... Just for comparison purposes, Obama gave 1% and Joe Biden gave $300 or .0013%.
Mitt Romney is Trustworthy:
He will show us his birth certificate
He will show us his high school and college transcripts.
He will show us his social security card.
He will show us his law degree.
He will show us his draft notice.
He will show us his medical records.
He will show us his income tax records.
He will show us he has nothing to hide.
Mitt Romney's background, experience and
trustworthiness show him to be a great leader and
an excellent citizen for President of the United States.
You may think that Romney may not be the best
representative the Republicans could have selected.
At least I know what religion he is, and that he won't
desecrate the flag, bow down to foreign powers,
or practice fiscal irresponsibility.
I know he has the ability to turn this financial debacle
that the current regime has gotten us into. We won't
like all the things necessary to recover from this
debt, but someone with Romney's background can do it.
But, on the minus side, he never was a "Community
Organizer", never took drugs or smoked pot, never
got drunk, did not associate with communists
or terrorists, nor did he attend a church whose pastor
called for God to damn the US.

Liberals in America
Just saw this and knew I had to share it:
Liberals in America who claim that Romney is a Racist. . .
Seem to Forget that is was Mitt’s father who marched with civil rights activists – NOT Obams’s.
Obama's "likeability" advantage evaporates
October 19, 2012
Posted by Staff
Remember when President Barack Obama was likable? Once upon a time the public viewed the incumbent more favorably than his challenger by large margins. These days Obama’s favorable and unfavorable ratings are similar to Mitt Romney’s. The televised debates have unveiled the current administration as alternately listless, manic, angry, soporific, rude, bullying, aloof, and thin-skinned. Americans who have just begun to tune into the election are seeing the president unmediated. They no longer are looking at him through the scrim of fawning press, majestic settings, and roaring crowds. And they are discovering that Obama is not so likable at all. He is actually something of a jerk.
Those who read coverage of the Obama administration closely will have known this for a long time: The president is cold, abstract, prickly, and insular. His brand of cerebral partisanship is better suited for liberal blogging than for leading the free world. He doesn’t enjoy interacting with strangers or even with associates outside his immediate clique. He has few close friends. He relies on about half a dozen senior advisers. His impromptu speech is given to cutting, sarcastic remarks.
Media ignores dozens of post-debate death threats against Romney
Posted by Staff
October 18, 2012
Man alive, can you imagine the media reaction if in 2008 Obama was thisclose to winning the presidency and dozens of citizens made public death threats against him? Between the tweets collected at Twitchy and Info Wars, the Secret Service will have plenty to keep them busy for the next few weeks. But the media has shown no interest whatsoever in what is a legitimate story.
The corrupt media's ignoring it for two reasons. First off, they just don't care about death threats against Republicans. What you have there is a sort of depraved indifference. Secondly, reporting on death threats against Romney will make him a sympathetic character, and three weeks from an election, there's no way in the world the media will allow that to happen.
Everyday Americans in the form of Tea Partiers garner all kinds of brutal media attention if they use the word "socialist."
Everyday Americans in the form of Obama supporters taking to Twitter to threaten the life of a potential president and to foment a violent atmosphere against him garner absolutely no attention.

Moderator Candy Crowley
From BLOG: Brutally Honest
What kind of moderator was Candy Crowley?
It should come as no surprise to those who think, who don't emote, who have a firm grasp of reality and aren't high on narcotics that she was biased.
Amid persistent complaints and interruptions from both candidates, President Obama ultimately got
more than three extra minutes of speaking time than Mitt Romney during Tuesday's debate.
According to CNN's timekeeping, Obama got 44:04 minutes of speaking time, while Romney got 40:50.
If my my math is correct, that's nearly 10% more time given Obama.
But wait, there's more.
In the first presidential debate, Jim Lehrer, no slouch at shilling for the Democratic Party, interrupted Mitt Romney 15 times and Barack Obama only five.
Crowley made Lehrer look like an amateur. She interrupted Obama nine times, (although four of those were when he wouldn’t respect the time limit when discussing assault weapons; he went over his time limit all night long), but when it came to Mitt Romney, she was utterly beyond the pale.
Crowley interrupted Romney 28 times. 28 times. Her desperation to keep Romney from scoring points was so patently obvious that it wasn’t really a surprise when she had her infamous moment: the moment when she interrupted and falsely claimed Romney was incorrect in accusing Obama of refusing to call the Benghazi attack an act of terror.
Again, check my math but that's more than twice the number of interruptions.
Clearly, Ms. Crowley was doing what the media is known now to do.
Shill for their liberal co-ideologues. Run interference for them. Do what they can to help the Democrats and hinder the Republicans.
It's undeniable.
And rather sickening.

Michelle Obama breaks the debate rules
Michelle Obama Broke Agreed Upon Rules, Clapped At Debate
At the second presidential debate on Tuesday night, a camera caught first lady Michelle Obama clapping after moderator Candy Crowley told Republican presidential candidate Gov. Mitt Romney that President Obama called the Benghazi attack an "act of terror" soon after the attack on the U.S. consulate.
Nearly all of the audible applause came from those sitting away from the actual debate, but when FOX News' camera shot moved to a bird's-eye view it became apparent that the only applause from the participating debate audience came from first lady Michelle Obama. Mitt Romney's wife Ann was also sitting with the debate participants.
According to the rules both campaigns agreed to, or the memorandum of understanding (MOA), there is to be no clapping from members of the debate audience.
Obama–the first “Affirmative Action” President
Is Obama the first "Affirmative Action" President?
The Liberals will go crazy when they see this, but I would simply ask, how many Democrats AND Republicans, Independents voted for the Jr.Senator from Illinois JUST because he classifies himself as an African-American (Black) although his mother was White?
He didn't do anything exceptional as a Senator, and voted "present" often, I believe intentionally so there would not be much of a record of voting to criticize when he ran for President. He did vote for Partial-birth abortion, and always supported funding of Planned Parenthood.
He seems to have a transparency problem in regard to his past history and activities and when he was elected, no one reeally knew who he was because his school records were "sealed" His Passport and Birth Certificate were "sealed" and no explanation was asked or given as to why he traveled to Indonesia in the middle of his college years, at a time when American Citizens were advised not to travel to that country. His whole campaign, with cooperation from the Mass media had a "Don't Ask, Don't tell" theme.
Now we find out, in the last 3 1/2 years that he has refused to secure our Southern borders, and seems to favor letting as many illegal aliens into the country as possible. He has punished the State of Arizona for enforcing Federal Immigration Laws, but has not lead through the Congress on changing the laws. He rules my fiat, Executive Orders, and rules and regulations imposed by Government agencies and their un-elected Secretaries, or CZARS.
And although he promised to Re-set our relationship with Russia, it seems that he has actually formed a closer personal relationship with Putin, and withdrawn missile support from our allies, like Poland. He inadvertantly "whispered" into an open microphone, telling Medved to tell Putin, that he will have "more flexibility" after the Election, even though he has already been quite flexible to bending over backwards to please Putin, even though they vote against U.S. interests regularly, along with China, at the U.N.
He also doesn't appear to be very fond of one of our Closest allies: Israel, and seems to side with the Palestinians on Middle East issues. Gee, I think MOST Americans do support Israel and are not aligned with the Palestinians. Does the President of the USA actually represent the interests of the USA? Or does he support and promote a more World-wide vision of a New World Order where the USA isn't an exceptional Country, Military Power, and Leader of the Free World?
He stated prior to the Election that he was "days away from fundamentally transforming America"
Is that what he was elected to do? He also said prior to being elected that "Under his energy policy, the price of energy would necessarily skyrocket" Well, that's one promise he has kept. Gas prices have more than doubled, Heating fuel is more expensive, he has destroyed the Coal Industry with Regulations, and refused to approve the Keystone pipeline that would supply us with oil from Alaska and create thousands of jobs. He would rather waste millions of taxpayer dollars on Companies like Solyndra! Unemployment is UP, Food costs are UP, the Moral of the American people is DOWN!
He has traveled to other countries and apologized for us, but I haven't heard any Apologies coming out of Libya for the murder of our Ambassador, 2 Navy Seals, and a Security Officer. Nor any apologies from Afghanistan for the many killings of our soldiers by the very Afghans we are trying to train to protect their own Country from internal terrorism. And His Administration's story about a stupid and amateurish video on Youtube being the reason for the attack on our Consulate in Libya is so ridiculous that NO ONE believes it! And there were no "Spontaneous" demostrations that day in front of our Consulate. The day just "happened" to be Sept.11th, and our flag was being burned and that day "celebrated" by the Muslim Terrorists, and apparently those Muslim Brotherhood "moderate reformers" that Hillary Clinto refers to just couldn't stop it!
In a few short weeks, we have the opportunity to take another kind of Affirmative Action to re-elect a new President, not because of color of his skin, or his soaring rhetoric, but for the content of his character, and the self-evident way he has lived his life and created prosperity for others! We gave him the chance of a lifetime, and he has been the worst President in MY lifetime, and my 1st vote in a Presidential election was for George McGovern! (Hey! I was just an idealistic youngster!)

CNN + Crowley = Team Obama
CNN’s Crowley first plays umpire, then joins Team Obama
By Dan Gainor
Published October 17, 2012
FoxNews.com
In the baseball playoffs, the tie goes to the runner. In debates, ties are decided by the moderator and that’s what happened during the Tuesday night presidential debate at Hofstra University in New York. CNN’s Candy Crowley made her presence felt as a moderator in a major way on two points, but none larger than the issue of Libya.
The terrorist attack that killed Ambassador Chris Stevens and four others in Benghazi has become a sore point for Obama, but Crowley made sure she called Romney out before Obama could tag him.
When Romney said Obama had not called the attack an act of terror for 14 days, Crowley interrupted and said: “It -- it -- it -- he did in fact, sir. So let me -- let me call it an act of terror.”
Naturally, Obama asked her to restate her point and she did. “Can you say that a little louder, Candy?” asked the president. “He -- he did call it an act of terror. It did as well take -- it did as well take two weeks or so for the whole idea there being a riot out there about this tape to come out. You are correct about that,” she continued.
Conservatives were outraged, arguing that Crowley’s interruption spoiled a key Romney point. They weren’t the only ones. Even Politico’s Mike Allen
called the Crowley point “arguable” and pointed to the transcript of Obama’s statement saying it “generally” referred to “acts of terror.” CNN’s John King called the Obama statement a “generic” comment about terror, not specifically calling the Libya attack a terrorist act.
Afterward, CNN’s post-debate analysis team focused heavily on that point and Crowley herself admitted Romney had been right “in the main.” She said Romney “picked the wrong way to go about talking about it.” She also emphasized that each point she made also generated applause from one half of the audience, then the other.
But Crowley also admitted she took her cue to intervene from Obama. She said Libya was where Romney “tripped himself up.” But she clearly helped. After Romney made his point she cut in. “The president kept looking at me, going you … and I thought, well, I did know that, I said, he, you, he did, call it an act of terror.” She then chastised Romney because “he picked that one wrong fact.”
The Daily Caller’s Matt Lewis was understated, saying simply: “Candy Crowley seemed to side with Obama.” But The Washington Post blamed Romney’s reaction on conservative media.
“Romney came off as being shellshocked by the mere suggestion” that he was wrong, wrote Erik Wemple. He continued his attack blaming the right. “Romney revealed that perhaps he’d spent some time inside a coverage bubble on the Benghazi story. In the words of one onlooker, he “[c]onfused conservative spin for the truth.”
However, the actual presidential transcript make it clear that Obama was doing his best to include the word “terror” without actually saying the incident was a terror attack. After mentioning 9/11, Iraq and Afghanistan, the president said: “No acts of terror will ever shake the resolve of this great nation, alter that character or eclipse the light of the values that we stand for.” Then he moved on to the Libya attack.
That one moment defined the debate. Crowley, who had come under criticism from both sides prior to the debate, also cut off Romney when he was making a point about the president’s "Fast and Furious" gun scandal. And, as in the other two debates, the moderators let the Democratic candidate dominate the clock. This time, according to CNN’s own tally Obama won 44 minutes and 4 seconds to a mere 40 minutes and 50 seconds for Romney.

Biden’s private reality

Biden's private reality
Posted by Staff
Joe Biden’s career of intellectual dishonesty is one step short of the Aristotelian ideal: It has a beginning (his law-school plagiarism) and a middle (his later campaign-trail plagiarism), but his performance in the recent debate suggests that it is without end. From misrepresenting Paul Ryan’s legislative record to telling bald-faced lies about his own, the vice president offered a master class in the art of deception.
The Iraq War and the expenses associated with it have become politically unpopular; the same is true to a lesser extent of the war in Afghanistan. Biden blasted Ryan for “voting to put two wars on a credit card, to at the same time put a prescription-drug benefit on the credit card, a trillion-dollar tax cut for [the] very wealthy. I was there. I voted against him.” No, he did no such thing. Biden, as the congressional record shows, voted for the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, as did the majority of his Democratic colleagues in the Senate. To extend the vice president’s MasterCard metaphor, his signature is right there on the receipt. He did vote against the Medicare prescription-drug benefit, only to support a much more costly entitlement expansion in the form of the Affordable Care Act.

Black Christians: Shame! Shame! Shame!
Increasingly, I am hearing the following mantra/narrative from Black Christians. “I'm voting for Obama because he is the lesser of the two evils.” This is an extremely weak veiled attempt to justify their racism and loyalty to The Black Code (never side with a white against a fellow black).
From a Christian point of view, how can any Bible believer conclude that Mitt Romney is more evil than Barack Obama?
Here are a few of the numerous things on Obama's anti-Christian agenda. Obama supports same-sex marriage and has vowed to be an advocate for the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender communities. Obama supports abortion including infanticide (making it illegal to provide medical aid to a baby that has survived a failed abortion). Despite their strong will to survive, these babies must be left to die.
Massive governmental controls hidden in Obamacare include forcing Christian institutions to fund abortion services against the teachings of their faith. Think about that; the federal government demanding that Christians betray their biblical beliefs. Forty Catholic groups are fighting back by suing the Obama Administration. In typical liberal incremental fashion, our military has gone from a “Don't ask/ Don't tell” policy to being mandated to celebrate Gay Pride Month under Obama.
Indisputable facts are available everywhere exposing Obama to be the most anti-Christian president in U.S. History. I know some of you Black Christians will continue to stick your heads in the sand, refusing to accept the truth. Woe be unto you. Racism is evil, whether it comes from whites or blacks blindly worshiping Obama because of his skin-color.
So Black Christians, tell me Romney's stated ant-Christian agenda. Grasping at straws, some will say Romney is a Mormon and Mormonism does not jive with Christianity. Well, you may have a point. However, Romney has not attacked Christianity or pledged to force Christians to betray their faith. Obama is boldly and dictatorially implementing his anti-Christian agenda. Regrettably, many of you black so-called followers of Christ realize who Obama really is and what he is doing. And yet, you will vote for him anyway because of your sick addiction to racial politics.
I have also heard Christians say, “OK, I admit that Obama is destroying America, but I cannot vote for a Mormon.” Such thinking is illogical. Imagine, your home is on fire and your family is trapped inside. The Hells Angels motorcycle gang arrives at the scene offering to go inside to rescue your loved ones. How absurd would it be to reject their “God-sent” help because you disapprove of the Hells Angels' lifestyle?
Remember this old joke? A guy was trapped on his roof during a flood. He prayed for help. Various volunteers came to his aid in boats. The man rejected them all, waiting for God to save him. The foolish man drowned. In Heaven, the man asked God why he did not answer his prayer. God replied, “I did answer your prayer. You rejected everyone I sent.”
America is on fire folks. Romney/Ryan are the most available firefighters. Thus, I believe they are “God-sent.”
I asked a black minister friend to further explain this “lesser evil” thing. He said the “lesser evil” in his mind is the economy. While not disputing Obama's anti-Christian agenda, Obama still wins his vote because he believes Romney/Ryan's plan will further the decline of America’s economy. In essence, this black minister of the Gospel is saying he values the economy over God's condemnation of homosexuality, over the lives of babies and over freedom of worship.
And by the way, this minister thinking that Obama's economic plan of spending our way to prosperity is superior to Romney/Ryan's plan is idiotic, nonsensical and absurd. I can not believe my friend is that stupid. I believe sighting the economy as his reason for voting for Obama is a weak excuse to mask his racism; pure and simple.
To all you, Obama-is-the-lesser-of-two-evils black Christian voters, you should be ashamed of yourselves. You “ain't” foolin' nobody. You are racists! May God have mercy on your souls.

Five Excellent Reasons to Oppose Obama
Michelle Malkin Big Momma Michelle Obama: Food profiteer-turned-food cop
By Michelle Malkin • May 12, 2010 01:06 AM
My syndicated column today takes on the First Lady’s hypocritical war on junk food. You can find the White House obesity task force report that lays the groundwork for Mrs. Obama’s nutritional power grab here. Or as White House aide Melody Barnes puts it: “It will serve as a roadmap for the work we need to do together to make sure that our kids grow up healthy and have the opportunity to live active lives.” My roadmap on the SEIU connection to Mrs. O’s campaign is here.

Big Momma Michelle Obama: Food profiteer-turned-food cop
by Michelle Malkin
Creators Syndicate
Copyright 2010
Let me summarize first lady Michelle Obama’s anti-obesity agenda: Shed as I say, not as I gain. While she crusades for organic foods and puts government pressure on corporations to stop marketing fast food and junk food to children, Mrs. Obama herself profited from the very same processed food industry she now demonizes.
In June 2005, a few months after her husband was elected to the U.S. Senate, Mrs. Obama hustled a seat on the corporate Board of Directors of TreeHouse Foods, Inc. Despite zero experience, the food-processing company put her on its audit and nominating and corporate governance committees. For her on-the-job training and the privilege of putting her name and face on their literature, the company forked over $45,000 in 2005 and $51,200 in 2006 to Mrs. Obama — as well as 7,500 TreeHouse stock options worth more than $72,000 for each year.
The chairman of the TreeHouse Foods board, Sam K. Reed, was a top executive at Kellogg’s and Keebler Foods, home of that great menace to children, the Keebler Elf. Before that, he headed up Mother’s Cake and Cookie Company. The conglomerate sells cheese sauces, Cremora non-dairy creamer, instant soup, puddings and powdered soft drink mixes. Hardly the stuff of Mrs. Obama’s new vision of nutritional paradise. TreeHouse is also a leading supplier of pickles used in the burgers of evil fast food chain McDonald’s — exactly the kind of corporate restaurants Mrs. Obama is now targeting in her war on urban “food deserts.”
The corporation-bashing Mrs. Obama would have continued raking in her TreeHouse cash if it hadn’t been for her husband’s pesky pledge to pander to Big Labor and swear off Wal-Mart. The retail giant, you see, happened to be TreeHouse’s biggest customer. And Wal-Mart is to Big Labor as sunshine is to Dracula.
In May 2007, Obama told AFL-CIO workers in Trenton, N.J., that Wal-Mart was dead to him. “I won’t shop there,” he pledged, with an eye toward embarrassing then-chief rival Hillary Clinton, who had served on Wal-Mart’s board from 1986-1992. The AFL-CIO has waged relentless attacks on Wal-Mart, dubbing it the “Poster Store for Greed.” That, by extension, would make Mrs. Obama — all-too-happy recipient of a Wal-Mart dependent compensation package worth more than $100,000 in 2008, according to Securities and Exchange Commission records — a Poster Child for Ancillary Avarice.
Candidate Obama shrugged off his wife’s conflict of interest. “Michelle and I have to live in the world and pay taxes and pay for our kids and save for retirement,” Obama explained to Crain’s Chicago Business magazine before his White House bid. Political expediency, alas, required that the candidate’s wife step down when the issue reared its head after Obama’s Wal-Mart bashing during the presidential campaign cycle. True to form, Mrs. Obama turned the decision into an ostentatious display of martyrdom:
“As my campaign commitments continue to ramp up, it is becoming more difficult for me to provide the type of focus I would like on my professional responsibilities,” said Chicago’s Joan of Arc in a resignation statement eight days after her husband declared his boycott of the stores stocked with food items processed and distributed by her TreeHouse colleagues. “My priorities, particularly at this important time, are ensuring that our young daughters feel a sense of comfort and normalcy in this process, and that I can support my husband in his presidential campaign to bring much needed change to this country.”
She saw no conflict then. And she sees no conflict now in wielding her East Wing clout to restrict the advertising free speech of the food industry that lined her pocketbook with big, fat paychecks. The Obama White House is on an insatiable control binge. No private space has been left behind — not your grocery aisles, not your children’s TV shows, not even your refrigerator.
Give the first lady this: She has an uncanny knack for wrapping her self-interests in the mantle of self-sacrifice and public service. It’s the Obama way.

Tired of that $2.6 Million Program that Teaches Chinese Prostitutes to Drink?
Column by John Ransom
Liberty is about a lot of things; it’s a deep topic. But at its core liberty can be summed up in one simple and reciprocal concept. That concept is respect.
You know the 2010 last election was about many things, but it was mostly about respect.
It was about starting to restore the respect that people have in government, by getting the government to restore the respect that they show to you…by taking liberty seriously.
If you are like me, you think that many of our elected officials from both the right and the left truly believe that what they think of you is much more important than what you think of them.
If you’re like me you’re tired of a trillion dollars in so-called stimulus spending that went to mob-connected asphalt contractors rather than the pockets of working families who own businesses and pay taxes and do all the working and dreaming in this country.
If you’re like me, you’re tired of a $2.6 million program that teaches Chinese prostitutes to drink more responsibly while unemployment soars across the country.
If you’re like me, you're tired of an arrogant federal government which pays out $47 billion in fraudulent claims in Medicare every year while they lecture the rest of us about healthcare economics.
If you are like me, you’re tired of the US Postal service wasting $50 million on a program that pays 1100 employees to do nothing. Yes, today, the US Post Office sat 1100 employees in empty rooms, as they do every day, and literally paid them to do nothing. They can’t play cards; they can’t watch TV, in fact they can’t do anything at all. To the tune of $50 million per year.

Thanks to Obama, Biden, Reid and Pelosi
I grew up in a family of Democrats thus I spent many years as a registered Democrat. I was a big JFK fan and was heart broken when he was killed.
But at some point I began to realize that the Democratic party was moving away from my values and beliefs. So I changed my voter registration to Republican.
I always thought that someday I would go back to the Democratic party and have followed all of their platforms and positions throughout the years. But I have now come to the realization that the Democratic party has moved so far away from the party I grew up in that I can never go back again.
Also I firmly believe that if JFK were alive today he would be a Republican.
The bottom line is that I should thank Obama, Biden, Reid and Pelosi and the like who have saved me from all that reading and studying I used to do as there is absolutely no way I will vote for another Democrat the way it stands now.

Memo to Barrack Husein Obama
Keep talking about Big Bird because that is what Americans are really really really concerned about!
Obama’s Ring
The gold ring that Obama wears is the one he's worn for 30 years. It's the one he wore BEFORE he got married; and it's the same one Michelle put on his finger at their wedding ceremony (hers was a traditional wedding ring). It is adorned with script that has now been deciphered, imprinted with the first part of the Islamic declaration of faith, the Shahada: “There is no God except Allah.”
The OIC (the Organization for Islamic Cooperation), which is a non-voting observer to the U.N., is the second largest intergovernmental organization after the United Nations. Based in Saudi Arabia, it has lobbied the U.N. for years to support an international anti-blasphemy law.
Guess how many Islamic states (Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq, Iran, et al) make up the membership of the OIC? 57 states.
Now ... mull that over a bit. :->
Bias on steroids: Obama attended ABC debate moderator wedding!
President Barack Obama was a guest at the 1991 wedding of ABC senior foreign correspondent and vice presidential debate moderator Martha Raddatz, The Daily Caller has learned. Obama and groom Julius Genachowski, whom Obama would later tap to head the Federal Communications Commission, were Harvard Law School classmates at the time and members of the Harvard Law Review.
After TheDC made preliminary inquiries Monday to confirm Obama’s attendance at the wedding, ABC leaked a pre-emptive statement to liberal-leaning news outlets including Politico and The Daily Beast Tuesday, revealing what may have been internal network pressure felt just days before Raddatz was scheduled to moderate the one and only vice-presidential debate Thursday night.
Both Politico and The Daily Beast jumped to ABC and Raddatz’s defense. The Huffington Post, another liberal news outlet, joined them shortly thereafter, while calling “unusual” ABC’s attempt to kill the story before it gained wide circulation.

Princeton Economist
Princeton Economist: Obama Campaign Is Misrepresenting My Study on Romney's Tax Plan
8:45 AM, Oct 8, 2012 • By JOHN MCCORMACK
Last night, the Obama campaign blasted out another email claiming that Mitt Romney's tax plan would either require raising taxes on the middle class or blowing a hole in the deficit. "Even the studies that Romney has cited to claim his plan adds up still show he would need to raise middle-class taxes," said the Obama campaign press release. "In fact, Harvard economist Martin Feldstein and Princeton economist Harvey Rosen both concede that paying for Romney’s tax cuts would require large tax increases on families making between $100,000 and $200,000."
But that's not true. Princeton professor Harvey Rosen tells THE WEEKLY STANDARD in an email that the Obama campaign is misrepresenting his paper on Romney's tax plan:
I can’t tell exactly how the Obama campaign reached that characterization of my work. It might be that they assume that Governor Romney wants to keep the taxes from the Affordable Care Act in place, despite the fact that the Governor has called for its complete repeal. The main conclusion of my study is that under plausible assumptions, a proposal along the lines suggested by Governor Romney can both be revenue neutral and keep the net tax burden on taxpayers with incomes above $200,000 about the same. That is, an increase in the tax burden on lower and middle income individuals is not required in order to make the overall plan revenue neutral.
You can check the math that shows Romney's plan is mathematically possible here.

Shame on ABC
ABC Removes Romney’s Opening Speech from Debate Transcript
by William Bigelow 8 Oct 2012, 3:57 AM PDT 6 post a comment
ABC News, on its website that claims it represents the whole transcript of last Wednesday’s debate between Mitt Romney and Barack Obama, decided that they would help Obama out once again. This time, they did it by completely removing Romney’s opening statement. The last two sentences of Obama’s opening statement were cut as well as the initial part of his response to Romney’s opening statement, but it is Romney’s statement that was cut in its entirety.
The section that follows is what they cut:
Obama: Now, it ultimately is going to be up to the voters -- to you -- which path we should take. Are we going to double on top-down economic policies that helped to get us into this mess or do we embrace a new economic patriotism that says America does best when the middle class does best? And I'm looking forward to having that debate.
LEHRER: Governor Romney, two minutes.
FORMER GOV. MITT ROMNEY: Thank you, Jim. It's an honor to be here with you, and I appreciate the chance to be with the president. I'm pleased to be at the University of Denver, appreciate their welcome, and also the Presidential Commission on these debates.
And congratulations to you, Mr. President, on your anniversary. I'm sure this was the most romantic place you could imagine, here -- here with me. So I...
(LAUGHTER)
Congratulations.
This is obviously a very tender topic. I've had the occasion over the last couple of years of meeting people across the country. I was in Dayton, Ohio, and a woman grabbed my arm and she said, "I've been out of work since May. Can you help me?"
Ann yesterday was at a rally in Denver and a woman came up to her with a baby in her arms and said, "Ann, my husband has had four jobs in three years, part-time jobs. He's lost his most recent job and we've now just lost our home. Can you help us?"
And the answer is, yes, we can help, but it's going to take a different path. Not the one we've been on, not the one the president describes as a top-down, cut taxes for the rich. That's not what I'm going to do.
My plan has five basic parts. One, get us energy independent, North American energy independent. That creates about 4 million jobs.
Number two, open up more trade, particularly in Latin America. Crack down on China, if and when they cheat.
Number three, make sure our people have the skills they need to succeed and the best schools in the world. We're far away from that now.
Number four, get to us a balanced budget.
Number five, champion small business. It's small business that creates the jobs in America, and over the last four years, small business people have decided that America may not be the place to open a new business because new business startups are down to a 30-year low.
Now, I'm concerned that the path that we're on has just been unsuccessful. The president has a view very similar to the view he had when he ran four years, that a bigger government, spending more, taxing more, regulating more -- if you will, trickle-down government -- would work.
That's not the right answer for America. I'll restore the vitality
that gets America working again. Thank you.
LEHRER: Mr. President, please respond directly to what the governor just said about trickle-down -- his trick-down approach, as he said yours is.
OBAMA: Well, let me talk specifically about what I think we need to do. First, we've got to improve our education system and we've made enormous progress drawing on ideas both from Democrats and Republicans that are already starting to show gains in some of the toughest to deal with schools. We've got a program called Race to the Top that has prompted reforms in 46 states around the country, raising standards, improving how we train teachers.
So now I want to hire another 100,000 new math and science teachers, and create 2 million more slots in our community colleges so that people can get trained for the jobs that are out there right now. And I want to make sure that we keep tuition low for our young people.
When it comes to our tax code, Governor Romney and I both agree that our corporate tax rate is too high, so I want to lower it, particularly for manufacturing, taking it down to 25 percent. But I also want to close those loopholes that are giving incentives for companies that are shipping jobs overseas. I want to provide tax breaks for companies that are investing here in the United States.
On energy, Governor Romney and I, we both agree that we've got to boost American energy production, and oil and natural gas production are higher than they've been in years. But I also believe that we've got to look at the energy sources of the future, like wind and solar and biofuels, and make those investments.
Why would ABC News cut Romney’s opening statement?
- Romney’s humorous response to Obama’s anniversary story (which was a transparent attempt to give the public warm fuzzies) showed a warmth and genuine good-nature that reveled a side of Romney the media wants to hide.
- Romney’s capacity for distilling his argument to bullet points was incredibly effective.
- Romney took the time to become anecdotal, which shows he connects with people, and ABC doesn’t want that notion to go public either.
Even CNN, not normally even-handed, got the transcript right. But ABC and its strategists, like George Stephanopolous, have made no secret of their agenda. And if it requires removing a candidate’s entire opening speech to achieve that agenda, they’ll do it.

Verified: White House Urges Lawbreaking
Verified: White House Doesn't Want Layoff Notice Until After Election So They Look Better
10/03/12
These federal contractors are required by law to give 60 days notice to their workers that they will be let go. That happens to fall on November 1, just before the 2012 election. So the White House is requesting that they postpone the layoff notices -- breaking federal law -- and promising to pick up the tab for any potential lawsuits, at taxpayer's expense. In essence, Obama will spend taxpayer dollars so that employers can violate the law and help him get re-elected.
7 Incredible Personal Stories About Mitt Romney
7 Incredible Personal Stories About Mitt Romney That You May Not Know
By John Hawkins
9/25/2012
Over the last few months, it has been absolutely stunning to see Mitt Romney, of all people, portrayed as some sort of greedy, ruthless, unfeeling corporate raider who plows over everyone who gets in his way so he can make a few dollars more. Of all the criticisms you could aim at Mitt Romney, there is none that has less validity than that one. In fact, the vast majority of people who read this column -- whether they're liberal, conservative, or moderate -- probably don't personally know a single person who has proven to be more generous and compassionate than Mitt Romney. Yes, really. It's okay if you're skeptical -- but, you won't be after you finish reading this column.
1) Mitt Romney saved the life of a 14 year old girl: Imagine what it would be like if we could have this kind of decisive people-centered leadership in the White House..
In 1998 the 14-year-old daughter of one of Romney's partners at Bain Capital, Robin Gay, had disappeared after attending a rave party in New York City. The distraught father was beside himself with terror of what may have happened to his little girl.Upon hearing of this, Romney stopped all operations at Bain and flew himself and all of the company's employees to New York to conduct the search. Using his contacts with establishments in New York that did business with Bain and an outlay of cash, Romney led a search for the girl from a command post he had set up in the LaGuardia Marriott that involved a private detective, Bain employees and customers putting up posters, handing out flyers, and interviewing prostitutes, drug addicts, and other street people in New York, and coordination with the New York Police.
A break came, after media publicity of the search, when a teenage boy called a tip line asking if there was a reward. He hung up, but not before the police traced the call to a home in New Jersey. The girl was found in the basement of the house undergoing withdrawals from a hit of ecstasy.
Romney, through his efforts, had saved the girl's life.
2) Mitt Romney gave milk to a V.A. hospital: This is the kind of thing Mitt Romney has done for people in need who cross his path.
He shared a story of a V.A. hospital in Boston that Mitt Romney stopped at while on the campaign trail running against Ted Kennedy. Ted Kennedy had made a thirty minute stop at the same location a couple of weeks prior.After touring the V.A. hospital, Mitt asked to look at their books. After he spent forty minutes going through their books, he told them, “You run a very good place, very tight. Very good.” Romney asked to go on another tour of the hospital, and after spending an hour and forty minutes there, the last question he asked was, “So what… what do you -- what are you lacking? What do you need help with?”
The response? “Milk.”
Since the press was around, snapping photos and asking questions, Glenn explained that Romney did a really awkward joke where he said, “maybe we should teach everyone here how to milk a cow.”
Of course, that’s all the press cared to hear and ran with a story that claims “Mitt Romney says veterans should have to milk cows.”
“This is where it gets good,” Glenn started. “Romney calls him up the next morning.”
Romney first apologizes to the man who runs the hospital for any problems the attention from the press jumping on his words brought to the hospital. He next offers to help with the milk situation.
“Friday comes, and the milkman comes,” Glenn continues. “This is what the vets needed – they needed 7,000 pints of milk a week. Milkman shows up, 7,000 pints. The head of the V.A. hospital asks, ‘Where did all this come from?’ He [the milkman] said ‘an anonymous donor.’ Now, the guy didn’t put it together.”
Glenn explains that when the next week rolled around, the milkman shows up again, and continued to show up every week for two years. After two years of delivering 7,000 pints of milk a week to the hospital, as the milkman is retiring, the man finally gets him to reveal the anonymous donor.
It’s Mitt Romney.
“Mitt Romney was writing a personal check and didn’t want anybody to know for two years and provided the vets with all of their milk in Boston,” Glenn explained to listeners this morning.
When Romney became governor, he sent a bill through to help the V.A. hospital – it was down to the dollar.
3) Mitt Romney helped a dying 14 year old boy write his will: In a profession filled with people who steal the credit for every good thing that happens and pass the buck at every opportunity, Mitt Romney's humility -- which is a wonderful trait in a human being, but a maladaptive one in a politician -- has kept him from hammering home stories like this in every swing state.
Pat Oparowski talks about the loving friendship Mitt Romney developed with her dying son David, remembering,"David, knowing Mitt had gone to law school at Harvard, asked Mitt if he would help him write a will. He had some prize possessions that he wanted to make sure were given to his closest friends and family. The next time Mitt went to the hospital, he was equipped with his yellow legal pad and pen. Together, they made David’s will. That is a task that no child should ever have to do. But it gave David peace of mind. So after David’s death, we were able to give his skateboard, his model rockets, and his fishing gear to his best friends. He also made it clear that his brother Peter should get his Ruger .22 rifle. How many men do you know who would take the time out of their busy lives to visit a terminally ill 14 year old and help him settle his affairs?"
David also helped us plan his funeral. He wanted to be buried in his Boy Scout uniform. He wanted Mitt to pronounce his eulogy, and Mitt was there to honor that request. We will be ever grateful to Mitt for his love and concern.”
Ted Oparowski summed it up nicely when he said,
"You cannot measure a man’s character based on the words he utters before adoring crowds during times that are happy. The true measure of a man is revealed in his actions during times of trouble — the quiet hospital room of a dying boy, with no cameras and no reporters."
4) At one point, Mitt Romney was doing 10-20 hours a week of volunteer church service: At the Republican National Convention, Mitt Romney's friend and fellow church member Grant Bennett talked about the Mitt Romney he knew.
While raising his family and pursuing his career, Mitt Romney served in our church, devoting 10, 15, and even 20 hours a week doing so. ...Drawing on the skills and resources of those in our congregation, Mitt provided food and housing, rides to the doctor, and companions to sit with those who were ill. He shoveled snow and raked leaves for the elderly. He took down tables and swept floors at church dinners. He was often the last to leave. Mitt challenged each of us to find our life by losing it in service to others. He issued that challenge again and again.
What do you think the chances are that the current occupant of the White House would voluntarily shovel snow and rake leaves for the elderly without any television cameras around?
5) Pam Finlayson talks about how Mitt Romney treated her family and her extremely ill child: Pam Finlayson gave one of the finest speeches at the Republican National Convention when she talked about her family's experience with Mitt Romney.
Later, when Finlayson and her husband Grant had a baby girl born dangerously premature, the man who decades later would stand at the threshold of the presidency was a steady and supportive presence at the hospital.“Kate was so tiny and very sick,” Finlayson recalled. “Her lungs not yet ready to breathe, her heart unstable, and after suffering a severe brain hemorrhage at three days old, she was teetering on the very edge of life.”
“As I sat with her in intensive care, consumed with a mother’s worry and fear, dear Mitt came to visit and pray with me,” she continued, as the partisan crowd listened in rapt silence. “I will never forget that when he looked down tenderly at my daughter, his eyes filled with tears, and he reached out gently and stroked her tiny back.”
“I could tell immediately that he didn’t just see a tangle of plastic and tubes; he saw our beautiful little girl, and he was clearly overcome with compassion for her.”
The little girl was slated for surgery around Thanksgiving, and Finlayson recalled Romney and his sons showing up with a Thanksgiving feast for the preoccupied parents. Finlayson said she later learned from Ann Romney that the food had been prepared by her husband.
Kate Finlayson survived, and the two families remained close, said Finlayson, who even babysat for the five “rambunctious” Romney sons before the family moved from Boston.
Last year, Kate Finlayson died at age 26 from complications she’d battled from birth, her mom said. And although Romney was in the midst of preparing his bid for the presidency, they remembered their old friends in yet another hour of anguish.
“When they heard of Kate’s passing, both Mitt and Ann paused, to personally reach out to extend us sympathy, and express their love,” Finlayson said.
“When the world looks at Mitt Romney, they see him as the founder of a successful business, the leader of the Olympics, or a governor,” she said. “When I see Mitt, I know him to be a loving father, man of faith and caring and compassionate friend."
6) Mitt Romney and his sons saved a family and their dog from drowning: Mitt Romney saw people in trouble and he didn't wait for the government to save them, he made a REAL gutsy call, and did what he had to do to save their lives.
But way back in the summer of 2003, the then-Massachusetts governor made the news for a very different reason: He helped save a Tewksbury family from drowning in New Hampshire’s Lake Winnipesaukee.The Morrisseys of Tewksbury were motoring their vintage wooden boat through the large lake on July 4 weekend that year when, around sunset and about 300 yards from shore, the vessel began taking on water. Robert Morrissey attempted to dial 911 on his cell phone, only to lose the device in the water as the boat started sinking rapidly.
That’s when Romney, who owns a home on the shore of the lake, and two of his sons jumped on jet skis and rode out to assist the six people, along with the family dog, struggling in the water.
The Romneys took two of the passengers ashore, and others in the area helped the rest of the family—and the dog, too — make it back to land without injury.
7) Mitt Romney pays for the college education of two boys who were left as quadriplegics after a car wreck: As you read this, imagine how you'd feel about Mitt Romney if you were Mark and Sheryl Nixon. Americans would be fortunate to have someone like Mitt Romney doing his best to try to help them.
Mark and Sheryl Nixon, along with their sons Reed and Rob and their daughter Natalie, told of a car accident that left Reed and Rob quadriplegics. Although the Nixon family knew of Romney and Romney had served as their Mormon stake president, they weren't well acquainted.Reed and Rob returned home from rehab in the late fall, near Christmas, Mark said. Around that time, Romney called and said he'd like to do something for the two boys. So Romney, his wife Ann, and three of their sons brought Christmas gifts to the family.
While Romney later offered to pay for Reed and Rob's entire college education, that Christmas Eve visit stands out in Mark's mind, he said, because instead of vacationing in Utah, New England or the Caribbean, the Romney family was visiting the needy.
"That actually, to me, has been more important to me than the financial help he gave," Mark said.
"After the initial experience of showing up, he didn't check that off his list and say, 'I did my duty,'" Natalie added. "He has, year after year, shown up at 5K races to run the event and participate."

Oscars Make Splash In The Sewer
Oscars Make Splash in the Sewer
Anyone in Hollywood who's dreamed of hosting the Oscars telecast never imagined that the qualifications would eventually include creating cartoon dogs that love "pukesicles" and cartoon babies that eat horse sperm for breakfast.
That crashing sound you heard was the collapse of the final vestiges of taste, civility, respect, decency -- whatever you want to call it - after the allegedly classy Oscar producers named "Family Guy" creator Seth MacFarlane as the host of the 85th annual Academy Awards next February. MacFarlane used to be the highest-paid sleaze ball in television. He is now the King of Hollywood.
Hollywood, bow to your king. Pick up your pukesicle and lick, lick, lick. You deserve each other.
The first-time producers of this new cultural low are Craig Zadan and Neil Meron, who both know something about dwelling in the gutter. They produced the outrageously fictional nonfiction movie, "The Reagans," that even CBS declined to run. Among other beauts, they made up a scene in which the president preached in the White House that AIDS sufferers deserved to "die in sin." The word "classy" is not in their political vocabulary.
They found their match in MacFarlane, who, during one Oscars interview, was asked if Obama would win the presidential race. "I think at this point, Obama can walk out with his penis out on stage and he'd still be able to win." Yes, Hollywood, your new king is that refined.
For his part, MacFarlane has tried to deny he was bringing a flame-thrower to Oscar tradition. "We're not going to turn the Oscars into 'Family Guy,'" he insists. But the descent from Bob Hope and Johnny Carson to Seth MacFarlane is from the clouds in the sky to the bowels of the sewer.
MacFarlane also joked that he hopes people don't remember he hosted Comedy Central's very mean-spirited Charlie Sheen roast. That was when he predicted Sheen would soon be dead, and read the personal obituary he'd written, declaring the actor was found dead in his apartment, then stopped. "I just kinda just copied Amy Winehouse's obituary," he said. Then he added: "I only had to change three things: the sex of the deceased, the location of the body, and the part that says 'a talent that will be missed.'"
This is the Oscar producers' definition of "new and fresh." It's about as fresh as something that's curdled in the back of your refrigerator unnoticed since the 1990s.
Sad, Very Sad
‘I Don’t Pray in Public’: Democratic Lawmaker Refuses to Lead Pledge of Allegiance at House Meeting
Pennsylvania state lawmaker Babette Josephs (D) was caught on tape refusing to lead her fellow House members in the Pledge of Allegiance at a recent meeting. She can be heard telling her colleagues, “Thank you, I do not pledge the flag of the allegiance based on my First Amendment rights and the fact that I really think it’s a prayer, and I don’t pray in public.”
After an awkward pause, she called on another lawmaker to lead the Pledge in her stead.

Teacher Kicks Student Out of Class for Wearing Mitt Romney T-Shirt
A Philadelphia high school honor student was ordered by her teacher to get out of the classroom when she entered wearing a Romney/Ryan t-shirt on a casual dress day.
The school has confirmed that the student, Samantha Pawlucy, was not at fault in the incident, in which her Obama-supporting teacher gave the youngster a crash course in partisan politics.
“I came in, and [my teacher] said, ‘Are you wearing a Mitt Romney shirt?’ She pointed and said, ‘Get out of the class.’ And I said, ‘no.’”
Samantha says her teacher went on to tell her that she couldn’t wear ‘a Republican shirt in a Democratic school.’
“She took a red marker drew on it, and then she told me to take off my shirt and she would give me a different one,” she said.
The exchange led to critical comments from both classmates and the janitor. Now, Pawlucy’s parents are outraged and calling for the teacher’s dismissal. While she’s been taken out of the classroom temporarily, they say they want her removal to be permanent.

Obama campaign accused of threatening NAACP official for criticizing president
Posted by Staff
President Barack Obama’s campaign is being accused by a Chicago leader of the NAACP of threatening and intimidating him for not supporting the president’s re-election.
David Lowery, the president of the South Suburban Branch of the NAACP in Chicago, says Louis Raymond, the Illinois political director for Obama’s campaign, threatened him during a recent phone conversation, according to a local news report.
WBBM Newsradio’s Mike Krauser, who first broke the story, reports that the threats came after Lowery told the campaign that he doesn’t “personally support the president because he’s not addressing issues important to the black community.”
