Inquirer Editorial: Obama will do a better job
Philadelphia Inquirer ^ | October 14, 2012 | Editorial

Posted on 10/14/2012 5:34:41 AM PDT by Oldeconomybuyer

Like a carnival barker cajoling a mark into spending the last bills in his wallet, the Republican Party is counting on Americans' not remembering that they've seen this trick before.

GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney wants voters to forget their familiarity with the prize he's dangling before their eyes - a return to the disastrous economic policies that preceded the recession. Given that context, Romney's prize is no better than a fake pearl.

... Obama deserves more than the grudging credit Republicans are giving him for being the commander in chief who finally got Osama bin Laden. America is safer as a result of that. America will be healthier, with more people insured, as a result of Obamacare. More Americans are employed, although not nearly enough, because of Obama's saving the auto industry and promoting policies that are creating jobs. What Obama has already been able to accomplish in the face of unrelenting partisan opposition suggests he could have a remarkably successful presidency if given a second term

BARACK OBAMA is the better candidate in the presidential race. A vote for him is an investment in a strong future, which is why The Inquirer endorses his reelection.

Obama will do a better job

Do they mean he will do a better job than he did the first time around? No.

Do they mean he will do a better job than Romney/Ryan? No.

the unfortunate reality is that the vote in filthydelphia which exceeds the total population drags the whole rest of the state down with, get rid of filtydelphia and Pa would be a red state.

How? Bin Laden was a sick old man, cut off for 2 years from Al Queda, and spending his time watching pornos and eating Cheetos when we found him. Ayman Al-Zawahiri had long since cut him off, and has been running the show. Is Ambassador Stevens "safer" as a result of his death? Nonsense...and Republicans needs to openly deride and belittle this "accomplishment", which was like sending a SEAL team into Century Village to kill Grandma.

Bin Laden is Dead, But Al Queda is Alive!

Insanity, but the libs are positive that the same mistakes would have a different outcome this time. Do these ‘bots really consider themselves to be even a bit rational?

This was a advertisement in our Sunday Paper Here in Central New Jersey.

I think the writer of this editorial needs to read this.

Romney doesn't want voters to forget that a big government push to expand home ownership, fully supported by community organizer Barack Hussein Obama, was a disastrous policy that preceded the recession.

The Philadelphia Inquirer is literally an arm of the Democrat Party. They own it. It’s not a newspaper. It’s a propaganda broadsheet. What else would they say?
