ROMNEY ACCUSES OBAMA OF ALL THE DEFICITS ROMNEY, HIMSELF, HAS.

There seem to be many in Congress who believe that unless we police the world while our citizens starve and are uneducated, or medically treated we will be seen as weak.  Women are usually less in a rush to send their sons and daughters off to war.  Perhaps that is why we need more women represented in the House and Senate.

On Tuesday, October 2nd, 2012, President Obama  will argue his administration will have a muscular and active policy in the Middle East, an effort to counter recent criticism from Mitt Romney. Read the complete article from THE HILL here.  It would appear that Romney does not understand diplomacy and covert efforts in solving problems.

I suggest reading the following Bloombeerg article to get a better picture of Romney's thinking on foreign policy. Click here. Haven't we been burdened by the Republicans long enough with unpaid wars?

OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT DOES NOT ALLOW MUCH PRIVACY OR SECRECY

Romney is flailing and using a single theme:  Obama is using attack ads.  Unfortunately there are Obama haters who will believe anything.  I just talked to one tonight who insisted he had given everything that was asked for by the campaigns.  The tragedy is that she believes it.  She also watches FOX.  She believes them, too.  What a tragedy that people are so biased that they will believe anything against Obama and everything for Romney even in the face of total fabrications, and inconsistencies.

One has to ask if the Republicans are falling apart.  Lawrence O'Donnell spoke tonight about Grover Norquist's loss of status and power.  Tom Coburn dared to vote and write against his pledge.  Coburn does not plan to run again. For more details on Norquist's meltdown and gaff by calling Coburn a liar (not what a lobbyist should ever do) click here.

So far, Sheldon Adelson has made it clear that he will spend $100,000,000 to get Romney into the White House.  Do we know why?  Yes, because he stands to earn much more if he can get someone to pass bills that keep him for being prosecuted for illegal activities there.  For details, click here.

Is this another truth?  Norquist says Romney fully backs the pledge.  Is that what we need in the White House?  Really???

ROMNEY'S " I BELIEVE...." SPEECH

Given the content of Mr. Romney's Nevadan victory speech, I was left wondering which orifice he was using giving it.  The major belief he holds is balancing the budget without raising taxes, while shrinking the government.  I must have missed a few gems while I was orally eliminating a great deal of profanity as well as everything I have eaten for the past few weeks.  I expected him to say he believed in Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy which would have brought him a tad closer to some sort of reality.

His supporters were ooh-ing and ah-ing like spectators at  4th of July fireworks displays. To hear  a bit of this, click here for The Hill report.   "Throughout his speech, Romney sought to portray himself as the presumptive Republican nominee. The former Massachusetts governor has won three of the early contests — New Hampshire, Florida and Nevada — but his opponents have pledged that they are not giving up on the race.
Romney tried to contrast his campaign proposals with the economy under Obama. Romney said he is a candidate who cares about Nevadans' problems and would offer them jobs instead of broken promises,( editor's insertion: neglecting to mention how he planned to do it). He peppered his speech with references to Nevada's economy – that its foreclosure rate is the highest in the nation, its 12 percent unemployment and its plummeting home values – to fire up angry voters in a state gave Obama 55 percent of the vote in 2008."  Amidst the chorus of 'rom-NEY, rom-NEY, rom-NEY, one could picture the signs of truth if anyone had dared,  They might have welcomed visitors to the State with a sign: 'Hypocrisy Spoken Here' 

If he complains that Obama didn't achieve what he had promised in the campaign (since he didn't know that Congress planned to deep 6 any ideas he put forth) I can just imagine what we will be hearing about him.  He will get rid of 'Obamacare' immediately. He never once mentioned the staff he will have or his Cabinet appointments; he doesn't seem to need any because he knows it all.  He believes he will stick to the Constitution (as though President Obama, a constitutional scholar does not understand the Constitution in Romney's eyes.) and will once again turn the country into a place that has freedom of religion.  I think I was just regaining consciousness when I heard this part and quickly faded again, missing any of the 'truths' he must have spoken.

Gee, Mom, why didn't you tell me before you died that you were preaching to the choir about truthfulness when you should have been teaching the Republican presidential candidates.  Mom, Mom!  Can you hear me up there in the Evangelical Heaven?
