The president is attacked on JOBS...he attacks the man and calls him a felon.....lets talk about JOBS ok......that has been the intent all along. You people on the left always want to make it someone else's fault.....make everyone feel guilty.

One newspaper in Boston makes a claim with no basis except what they might think and you and others instantly label Romney.

Bucco, your hatred for Obama is so intense, it would be laughable if it wasn't so sad.

None of Romney's ads refer to Obama's failure to keep campaign promises? The media only covers attacks on Romney? I don't read at all? I guess you do read a lot, and maybe watch TV too. I'd guess that based on the number of articles and links you copy and paste in your posts here. The problem is that your hatred and distrust for Obama, or anyone who says anything positive about him, has blocked your ability to think or to consider interpretations, beliefs or priorities other than your own.

What's the point of this, Bucco? You label any person or media source who even remotely credits Obama with anything as blind to his obvious--to you anyway--character faults, lies, inexperience, incompetence, hidden agendas, and all sorts of other horrible faults. What's further amazing is that you so brilliantly observed all this years ago, even while half the people in the country completely missed what you so clearly and unequivocally observed and elected the man to the presidency of the U.S.!

You are an amazingly brilliant and insightful observer of people, the media, and the American human condition, Bucco. Keep up the good work. Just don't make yourself sick doing it.

What I've been saying is the facts haven't all come out yet, but Mitt Romney could get ahead of this thing by releasing tax forms and explaining his investments being in foreign countries.

I know that what you accuse me of you also know is not true. I DO admit to getting upset at LYING and HYPOCRISY which is been on the top of the list the last few days.

I do not like misleading...when I criticize Obama I give the reasons...not many folks come back and discuss the issue on which I critique him on...I KNOW that is not because I am always right and have great debates and conversations with people who are straight forward, honest and civil.

I never had a problem with the MAN Obama until now. THAT I know you can attest to. NOW I admit to changing.

You may find my distrust, not hate, of Obama funny and comical...I do not think it is funny in anyway. Someday, someone has to pay the bills...and untangle the web

maybe Romney can pay some of your bills with the$100,000 he got from Bain for doing NOTHING. Or maybe it's OK for Romney to get money for nothing and the heck with others.

Forbes asks 35 questions Mitt Romney must answer about Bain Capital before this issue can go away.

I have a question of my own that I haven't heard anyone ask Romney. How could you go before the MA Elections Board and swear on a stack of bibles that you had lived in MA for seven consecutive years, which is a requirement for running for governor, when you were working 17 hour days in Utah as stated by your spokesperson, Ed Gillespie?

Now you're jealous of Romney's contract that he had with Bain?

Are you also jealous about the millions of dollars sports figures and movie stars get for so little real work.

Do you get dividends from stock?

If you do, you've got some nerve getting money for no work.

Here's a very smart take on Mitt Romney's reaction to President Obama's Bain Capital offensive.

Did Romney's 2002 Bain Capital CEO Filing Violate The Exchange Act? - Forbes

Interesting article on Mitt Romney and Bain Capital from Forbes.

OK let's say we give you all that perhaps Romney did something that is not 100% correct in business. Then in return I would expect you to agree he probably did no more than any other multi millionaire business exec or members of congress and the supreme court and Obama, with legal counsel of course. So what ever they did is not illegal. If you are not willing to grant the above you are obviously mired in partisan smearing and also know little about the goings on of business and politics.

How about a change of subject?????

Now that some of you have satisfied your need to pick fly specs out of the pepper by comparison, sure would like to see as much enthusiasm for subjects like the economy, energy independence, America's mediocre space program, Iran, jobs just to name a few???

We don't hear much if any from Obama's campaign, hence nothing gets discussed here as a result. Even the ever digging for fodder media is silent on the real issues that face this country. Now just why is that?


the feed back will be 100% predictable....wanna bet?

Richie,Richie...Pretty good attempt at changing the subject,nice spin to it. But what the heck do dividends,movie stars and jealosy have to do with the FACT that Romney got $100,000 in FREE money for doing nothing and I repeat nothing. Why is it OK with you that for him it's OK to take free money but for others they are freeloaders.

Right on, BTK! The longer the public let's the candidates and the media talk about this inconsequential stuff, the longer they can avoid talking about important issues.

Like when will Congress begin discussing what to do about the expiring Bush tax cuts and deep cuts to spending, including the defense budget? Those things will happen on New Year's Day. Congress has already wasted two full weeks of Congressional sessions voting thirty-three different times to repeal ObamaCare. But not one minute spent so far in addressing the problems which will happen on January 1, 2013.

Let's see, after the election and Thanksgiving, Congress is scheduled to be in session for a grand total of 11 days before they take off for their 4+ week Christmas vacation. I guess a bunch of smart guys like them can get all that work done in just a few days, don't you think?

Or what do you think the chance might be that they realize they don't have enough time, and kick the can down the road once again? After all, they need to allow time after the election to debate and vote a 34th time to repeal ObamaCare!

President Obama is on his way to Ohio right now to talk about all the things you mention. He was in Virginia Friday and Saturday talking about those things. Before that he was on a two day bus trip through Ohio and PA addressing those issues?

Where has Mitt Romney been? Where is he today? In the first half of July, he has had one town meeting in Colorado, addressed the NAACP, and been to too many fund raisers to count, including the one with Dick Cheney last Thursday.

Next week, Romney heads to the olympics to watch his million dollar horse compete in dressage (dancing horses). Who is talking about the things voters care about? You tell me.

since you know he was talking about "those things" would you care to elaborate on which issue specifically and what he said he would do about it?

Obama is very vague about what he will do if he is re-elected in November. This election seems to be more about beating the competition than about what they can or will do for the country. In other words, both Obama and Romney seem more beating one another than about informing the voter about decisions they would make if they win the election.

I am very worried though that if Mitt Romney gets elected he will put in anti-abortion Supreme Court Justices and Chief Justice Roberts will find some case to hinge an overruling of Roe v. Wade. It is bad decision as far as judicial activism is concerned. They did legislate in that case as to what is the law on abortion throughout the US. In some situations though the US Supreme Court should take a stand on an issue like the right of women to keep control over their bodies.
