I just took a trip over the Fox and Friends and mean ole' Obama keeps "Setting Up Romney"

to look bad.

They were mentioning that Obama stated that "Washington cannot be fixed from the inside, it can only be fixed from the outside." So, Romney responded by saying something like, "Look, Obama hasn't been able to fix Washington, he has surrendered, he should be able to fix it from the inside, blah blah." And then that mean ole' clever Obama campaign released a video from waaaaayyyyyy back in 2007 where Romney was bragging about his "bizness experience" and how Washington needs to be fixed from the outside, kinda like Obama said last night.

Soooooo, what the dude who is not Doocey said is that "the Obama campaign set up Romney and they do it all the time." Miss America said that the "Obama campaign is really good at putting out simple messages." They spent 20 minutes trying to explain that Romney meant something in a different context and said, "look it took us 20 minutes to explain this!" Romney keeps taking the Obama bait!!!!

I don't know if I can go back there for a while. But I did a recon mission for the DU team.

products that appeal to the 5 year old mentality.
Lots of mystics and miracle cures would be my guess.
Don't care enough to look, though.

I must have missed the latest video Obama released to counteract the video that Romney released in order to counteract the video that Mother Jones released.

and they're attacking Obama for comments made 14 yrs ago (and were edited too)?


Sounds like they're getting desperate, no?

Seriously, a "media" outfit has to WANT to get a crew that dumb together.
