Robert Reich: OBAMA IS BACK !!

He’s back.

Last night our president was articulate and forceful — in sharp contrast to his performance in the first presidential debate. He stated his beliefs. He defended his record. He told America where he wanted to take the nation in his second term.

And he explained where Romney wanted to take us.

For example: “Romney says he’s got a five-point plan. Governor Romney doesn’t have a five-point plan; he has a one-point plan. And that plan is to make sure that folks at the top play by a different set of rules. That’s been his philosophy in the private sector; that’s been his philosophy as governor; that’s been his philosophy as a presidential candidate. You can make a lot of money and pay lower tax rates than somebody who makes a lot less. You can ship jobs overseas and get tax breaks for it. You can invest in a company, bankrupt it, lay off the workers, strip away their pensions, and you still make money.”

And:

“Governor Romney … was on ‘60 Minutes’ just two weeks ago, and he was asked, is it fair for somebody like you, making $20 million a year, to pay a lower tax rate than a nurse or a bus driver, somebody making $50,000 a year? And he said, yes, I think that’s fair. Not only that, he said, I think that’s what grows the economy. Well, I fundamentally disagree with that.”

Obama told voters what Romney’s plan was for women (take away their freedom of choice), and for Hispanics (allow police to stop them and demand proof of citizenship, as in the Arizona law “that’s his [Romney’s] policy, and it’s bad policy.”)

He took responsibility for the security lapse in Libya, but made sure Americans understood the danger

OK so which obummer answers the phone at 3 AM?

Hey O-Hole,

The part I liked best about last night was when Romney talked DOWN to Hussein:

“You’ll get your chance. That was a statement, not a question.”

FU Hussein, you LOSER!

[DonkeyBonker]

He dipped into the coke before the debate. (not the cola)

BACK & LYING BETTER THAN EVER!

“He told America where he wanted to take the nation in his second term.”

Yeah the same place he told us he wanted to go in his first term but never got there......

[txrefugee]

Another stinker left-over of the rancid Clintoon legacy trying to get back in the limelight.

Get a life, you desperate little man....preferably one that does not involve anyone but your dog.

[Kickass Conservative]

Must be the air down there.

If that guy on Big World / Little People also Votes for Obama we'll know for sure.

No other explanation.

[Disambiguator]

Don’t you think Obama looks tired?

He ain't in now way tard.

The Hobbits were family loving, honest, respectable characters. I don’t recognize any of those characteristics in either party mentioned.

Oh no. I can just see him sitting on a tree limb dangling his legs and giggling.

“Romney says he’s got a five-point plan. Governor Romney doesn’t have a five-point plan; he has a one-point plan.”

Clear projection. Romney has a clear 5 point plan. Obama OTOH has a one point plan—tax the rich more. No pretense that it will raise enough money to solve anything, only pure class envy.

Paying a low tax rate on capital gains helps increase savings and capital accumulation which do help grow the economy better than just about anything else.

The great conflict of the 21st century will not be between the West and terrorism. Terrorism is a tactic, not a belief. The true battle will be between modern civilization and anti-modernists; between those who believe in the primacy of the individual and those who believe that human beings owe their allegiance and identity to a higher authority; between those who give priority to life in this world and those who believe that human life is mere preparation for an existence beyond life; between those who believe in science, reason, and logic and those who believe that truth is revealed through Scripture and religious dogma. Terrorism will disrupt and destroy lives. But terrorism itself is not the greatest danger we face.

Quote from
Robert Reich,

[spawn44]

And your 4’ tall without standing on your tiptoes. Reich, back from what, being +1 in a +9 democratic slanted poll. It’s all over for you dwarfs and the delusional left. Nobody is buying your BS anymore. You think 2010 was bad for you socialists, you ain’t seen bad yet, but it’s coming real soon.

[Leep]

hail the 1/3rd Reich.

[Morpheus2009]

If you ask me, I would say that Robert Reich deserves to endure some boot camp... But then again, he's probably way too wimpy to take it

[mrsmel]

It’s too bad Romney can’t walk out on stage and right off the bat ask “Now which one of you am I debating here, because it’s one of the other, not both”. That would be funny, but the drive-by media would have a field day.
