Mitt followed Rule 2 perfectly with the zinger about his five sons. Well done, Mitt!
And Mitt was telling the truth when he called Obama a liar. Mitt has shaken his etch-a-sketch, so his consistent, persistent policy statements form what mathematicians call the Null Set, and, under the rules of logic, every statement about the existence of objects in the Null Set is false, and hence a lie.
The far “right” corporate owned conservative media will lie like hell to placate their masters. A large part of the middle class can no longer afford cable or satellite TV (there goes faux noise) and an increasing number of middle class can no longer afford electricity to power the TV set. Besides, if they are working 2 or 3 part time temporary low or no wage “jobs” they don’t have time to watch TV or listen to radio. Or read newspapers which they can no longer afford either.
The format of the debates makes it very unlikely that either side will say much that’s more than a sound bite. There’s not much room in public discourse for a sustained argument with detailed consideration of counter-positions.
That was deep, man, I feel like I’m back in the 70’s, man, on shrooms, you know, man, and you just blew my mind, man. Slight problem: I was only eight back then :-)

But never mind, the thing with the null-set is a good way to look at it. If you take everything Romney has said and turn it into vectors you will end up (after a wild, wild ride) at where you started. Statistically the standard variation of Mitts statements approaches infinity. Hey, this is fun, especially since the righties will never know what we are talking about!

I can’t help but notice all the reDUMBlicans “spiking the ball” can’t name one positive about robme, besides of course he isn’t Obama. Hey, they’d vote for the anti-christ simply becuase he isn’t Obama. Please name one true, non-partisan pandering positive about robme and his policies. His tax cut/won’t increase the debt/won’t raise taxes on the middle class is contradictory and mathematically not possible, so that is not a valid point.

Ok some truth there, but after four years why should these same people vote for the guy who “buried” them so says Joe Biden.

Romney had made his own falsehoods. The reality is they both lied.

Pett is upset.

The comment about his five boys WAS telling. They all lie to him. Great kids, great parenting; good revelation, Mitt.

Obama can’t put on half the vaudeville show that Romney can so he doesn’t stand a chance with the American people.

If you insist on playing with vectors, may I point out that the y-axis is imaginary. That may explain a lot of the Romney/Ryan theories.

@Clark Kent
This is due to Obama’s Policies, yet you want to keep him four more years so he can further destroy the middle class, why?

“Obama can’t put on half the vaudeville show that Romney can so he doesn’t stand a chance with the American people”.
Ok why is that? The dog and pony show I have seen for the past four years was impressive.
