Obama attacks Romney on oil tax break remarks he never made
Daily Caller ^ | 10/5/12 | Michael Bastasch

Posted on 10/05/2012 4:21:50 PM PDT by Nachum

President Barack Obama is back on the campaign trail, blasting the “fake” Mitt Romney for false claims he supposedly made during Wednesday night’s presidential debate.

“Last night, my opponent says he refuses to close the loophole that gives big oil companies $4 billion in taxpayer subsidies every year,” Obama said at a Denver campaign event on Thursday. “He ruled out closing the loophole that gives oil companies $4 billion in corporate welfare.”

Obama continued this line of attack at other campaign events as well.

“The guy who was playing Mitt Romney said he refuses to close a loophole that gives big oil companies $4 billion in taxpayer subsidies every single year,” Obama said in Wisconsin on Thursday.

And again at a Friday event in Virginia, Obama claimed Romney said that there is “no way” he’d close loopholes for oil companies.

“He said there’s no way that he’d close the loophole that gives big oil companies billions each year in corporate warfare,” Obama said on Friday.

Romney should get a stock response together for these lies, which are gonna come thick & fast through the election.

Whatever form that response takes it needs to be heavily derisive.

Empty suit, empty chair, empty brain, empty speech. The least experienced and least knowledgeable person in any room on any given topic, excluding choom, life on the down-low, hoop, and golf.

I think that you are dead wrong. I doubt that he knows much about golf either.

Obama is acting like the kid who just got his ass kicked at recess, then waits for the principal to show up to start bad mouthing the one who just “whuped” him, while in complete safety.

ironic, given that the obamite’s full explanation (dutifully reported by the MSM) for the TOTUS getting his ass kicked in the debate was, “romeny lied!!!”*

*an argument that is rejected by thinking third graders on playgrounds all over the country.

Reminds me of the Seinfeld episode where Costanza loses an interoffice joke off. Then spends the entire episode trying to figure out what he should have said and what he will say next time. He came up with jerk store.

He loves to talk tough when there's no opposition present with a mic to correct him. Romney and Ryan need to go after his bag of lies every second of the day. The leftists are already in the political forums claiming that the republicans are trying to talk down this so called "Obama economic boom".

obama lies all the time. He says Romney lied.
Thus, what obama is truly saying is that Romney spoke the truth.

Romney spoke the truth about something he didn’t say.

The guy who was playing Mitt Romney

This petulant line of attack makes the President look very small indeed. It's like the Howard Dean scream in slow motion. He is not doing himself any favors.

I hope he keeps doing it.

It’s good that the little boy has found his voice again. All it took was the deployment of two TelePrompTers, a worshipful audience and somebody else’s ideas and words to read aloud.

He’s George Costanza.. He tries to deliver the perfect insult, but it’s lame and also way too late, and the other guy is smarter and has a better retort.

They say in the nest debate Obama will have to be more aggressive. Do you think it's possible that a candidate (especially The President) could go a little too overboard on aggressiveness on live TV?

If so, you think Obama just may do it?

I think what Romney should say to all of the lies is:

“Look what he says when I am not around to correct him. Would he like to invite me to his next campaign speech?”
