Obama Calls Romney Speech 'A Cow Pie of Distortion' By Kristen Welker

DES MOINES, IA – President Barack Obama delivered one of his most direct attacks against Mitt Romney here Thursday night, painting Romney as an out-of-touch corporate raider.

At this event, held before an enthusiastic crowd of 2,500 at the Iowa State Fairgrounds, Obama reminded the crowd that Romney said “corporations are people,” while stumping in Iowa last August during the Republican primary. The president said there may be value in Romney’s experience in corporate buyouts, “but it’s not in the White House.”

He also noted that the former governor doesn’t talk about his record in Massachusetts.

Speaking directly to Iowans, Obama used local lingo to slam Romney: “Governor Romney came to Des Moines last week and warned of a prairie fire of debt,” he said. “But he left out some facts. His speech was more like a cow pie of distortion.”

Then he quipped, “I don’t know whose record he twisted the most – mine or his.”

Obama warned his supporters that this race would be tougher than 2008 and argued that he represents the future and Romney the past. "We don't need another political fight about ending women's right to choose or getting rid of Planned Parenthood," Mr. Obama said as the crowd erupted into cheers.

Inept. He needs to listen to someone who can pull him back, but I don’t think he will listen to anyone. And I hope he doesn’t.

Consider the significance of your assessment once Obama is defeated on election day -- perhaps decisively.

He will then remain in office for the better part of three months -- still the President, still willfully without restraint.

Those strike me as dangerous months.

There’s a quandary.

Vote in every Senator/Congressman and all down ballot folks to your local level.

It’s all we have.
Obama will be made a laughing stock if we put up enough resistance.
Romney too, but Romney aint the arrogant turd Obama is.
I think he will at least play along.

That’s actually funny. You know he didn’t write that himself
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
If asked what a ‘cow pie’ is/was,his answer would be “You know, like a moon pie, a cake”

He would probably not know what horse apples or horse feathers or Rocky Mountain Oysters are either.

We used to play ball in the field and use the cow pies for bases.

It taught you to slide gingerly and also not step in the middle of the bag, utilize the corners.

He occupies the White House but has not lived up to the title President of the United States.

He also referred to patriotic men, women, and children as “teabaggers” knowing it’s homosexual connotation.

Yeah, like his record of $5 trillion in debt, massive give aways to cronies, corruption and intimidation of just about everyone including the Supreme Court, ...

Try as they might I don't think his billionaire friends, the MSM media, communist nations, fraudulent voters stuffing the ballet box, and the hoards of liberal organizations are going to save him.

Obama and the democrats have been building a platform out of bullshit for years. It’s piled so high now that they can’t stand on it so they have to resort to class warfare, race baiting, and character assassination. That’s all they have.

If I were Romney. I would have the White House fumigated before I stepped a foot inside. And I would do so publicly.

The most surreal moment in my life was when Obama was elected. I knew only one thing at that moment and that was that God is very angry with this nation.

Zero is losing it, big time. His true animal, uneducated, decadent core is revealing itself.

They ARE people, moronobama. If corporations are NOT people, why did Obama steal from bondholders and taxpayers to bail out General Motors CORPORATION and the Chrysler CORPORATION?

There is something about this continual tactic of projection that has a ridiculous note. The cow pie is in the eye of the beholder. In this case, it’s queer eye for the cow pie.

I think the language might work for Bush II or Reagan. They were MEN who worked the land, who knew what a cow pie was. Obama knows damn little about ANYTHING and less about farming. So for him to say it is ridiculous.
