Prez ‘crushed’ by Romney

Howie Carr

If last night’s debate was a prizefight, it would have been stopped at 9:25 p.m.

I had a feeling Obama might have a problem when I heard he was using John Kerry as his Mitt Romney stand-in. If that was the best Liveshot could do getting Barack ready for Mitt, he should be fired this morning even before Bobby Valentine gets his walking papers.

Did you notice how Obama kept looking away from Romney? It took a while to figure out who he was looking for, but then I realized — it was TOTUS, his missing TelePrompTer of the United States.

No one should ever use the words “cerebral” and “Barack” in the same sentence ever again. He bragged about cutting taxes $3,600 for middle-class families — “maybe they can buy a new car.”

And they said George H.W. Bush was out of touch!

It wasn’t just that Romney was smart. It was that Barack was revealed as a clueless dolt...

$3,600 for middle-class families — “maybe they can buy a new car.”

With that they can't even pay for the tax break on someone else's Chevy Volt.

As I just noted on another thread, John Kerry probably just lost his job as debate partner. Moral of that story: all “rich” guys are not equally endowed with smarts.

It wasn’t just that Romney was smart. It was that Barack was revealed as a clueless dolt. Even MSNBC and The New York Times [NYT] won’t be able to put this Humpty Dumpty back together again. There’s only one possible excuse Barack can use today: “George Bush’s dog ate my homework!”

LOL!

Obama must not have heard that NATO bombed the YUGO factory in 1999.

So John Kerry will no longer be allowed to report for duty?

I was looking forward to seeing Obama exposed. It’s the first time he’s had to stand on his own two feet and he got a big fat F. Now most will see him as he really is...a con artist.

Does anyone know about the 47 new agencies and 8 training programs out of the administration? Not sure if I got that right but Romney mentioned it.

Kerry married money. Romney built Bain with smarts but also drive and determination, and discipline in setting and attaining goals. Not exactly the traits that affirmative action programs develop.

I think Romney is not a natural debater, but set a goal to maximize what ability he does have in that area, and did exactly that.

Kerry’s a better debater than Obama, and probably at the level Romney was in the primaries. The improvement in Romney’s skills must have shocked the hell out them.

Maybe this?

“Nine federal agencies operate 47 job-training programs, 44 of which overlap with at least one other program. These programs cost $18 billion in 2009, but GAO found that due to their duplicative nature, “little is known about [their] effectiveness.”

“BURIED” not crushed. Buried is the new operative word until Biden gives us another.

Well, I live in California and today was the day that I paid the most money I have ever paid for a gallon of gas, $4.51 for Regular.

That “magical” $3,600 in Tax Savings, even if it was true, would disappear really fast considering the amount of miles our Family drives every year.

I was standing there calculating the Federal Gas Tax, State Gas Tax and State Sales Tax I was paying and I figured it comes out to about $1.00 per gallon. Never mind the hidden Taxes being paid to drill, refine, store and transport the product to market.
