    Any of you Repubs care to show us where that ad was a lie?

    You know, a lie…like "Obama is a Muslim’ "Obama isn’t an American citizen, " and “Obama is a Marxist”

    And let’s not forget that claim Fast and Furiosu was part of an eeeeevil plot to take everyones guns away

    Aren’t righties hilarious? They INVENTED this kind of ad with the Willie Horton spots, and they’ve been running with them ever since. Remember the Clinton Chronicles? ( ’Vince Foster was murdered!" )

    Yeah, it’s all fair game when THEY do it, but let their candidate be on the receiving end and it"s…

    “Waaaaaah Mommy! Mommy! Barry Obama isn’t playing faaaaaiirrrrrrr! WAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!”

    Tea-Party Repubs…never fail to crack me up.

    When my niece’s husband had a stroke, and lost his job , and insurance, she lost her job due to a “Mittism cut” shortly after. They had no way to afford to keep him alive, let alone recovering. I informed them that as a veteran even though not "service connected’ he should check with VA. THey did and he got signed up to continue taking his life saving meds, and paying only an affordable copay. He also lived near a VA hospital and was able to return to therapy, at no cost. He had VA to fall back on, those Ryan and others would cut off, don’t. Of course, Ryan plan would also cut benefits for vets and military retirees too.

    NO! Mitt did NOT give the woman cancer, but his actions and those of Bain, DID place thousands in the position of my niece and her husband, with no “government second option”.THAT is the Ryan plan in function.

    Is that “middle class values”?

    About as fair as “Death Panel” accusations.Romney put it best when he said getting insurance wouldn’t have been a problem if she lived in Massachusetts.

    One wonders how many americans died from medical complications resulting from an inability to pay for medical treatment when companies declared bankrupcy and cut loose thousands of pensioners as well as the savings and investments lost when the banks and stock brokers gambled with peoples’ savings, lost, but still gave themselves bonuses. What happened to this man’s wife has happened to too many and it simply shows we need some sort of medical safety net in this cannibalistic economy we have adopted. Respectfully,C.

    This is absolutely disgusting, Benson. The extent to which you will go to besmirch others to advance your stupid political agenda is blindingly disgusting. I can’t believe that you’re so dirty as to call a cancer victim a victim of Bain.

    Reading your post, I am reminded of the wise words of mystery writer Lawrence Sanders:

    “The best way to tell a lie is to tell only so much of the truth…and then shut up.”

    Like you just did.

    You also completely avoided the main issue I was trying to raise, that of right-wing hypocrisy

    Why was that?

    The trolls rejoice in retelling the lies about Obama, but oh how they howl when someone tells a lie about their candidate.
