Watching a GOP candidate verses Obama is akin to the old Abbott and Costello boxing routine where Costello is fighting some guy and abbott is the ref who has bet on his opponent.

Heh Rombo, take off the gloves and call him what he is, a socialist gifter bent on destroying the USA. And that is just for starters.

Neither is Romney!

These are JimRob’s own words............

ObamaCare/RomneyCare. Mandated compulsory health insurance. Penalties for noncompliance. Death panels. Taxpayer funded/subsidized abortion. Government coercion. Force. Culture of Death. Abortion. Planned Parenthood. Euthanasia. Organ harvesting. Embryonic stem cell research. Tyranny against religious institutions/hospitals who refuse to go along. Gay rights. Gays in the military. Gays in the scouts. Gay marriage. Sodomy training in grade school. NAMBLA. “Hate” crimes for those resisting and speaking out. Our Christian bible a hate book. Socialism. Statism. Big government. Big spending. Big borrowing. Big taxing. Big deficits. Crony capitalism. Subsidies. Government choosing winners and losers. TARP. Bailouts. Takeovers. Porkulus. Open checkbook. No approved budget. Endless debt limit increases. Gun control. Global warming. Open borders. Shamnesty. Judicial activism. Flexible/adjustable, living Constitution. “Alienable” rights.
Things that Obama and Romney and the establishment GOP-e RINOs all seem to agree on. It’s just a matter of degree.

Tyranny.

Resistance to tyrants is obedience to God!!

Juan McLame told a crowd in 2008 that Obama was a good man. Makes me sick to my stomach.

I imagine Mitt Rombamaney will throw the election just as McCain did partly by building up the kenyan and not permitting anything he would perceive as demeaning or that the Democrats would call racist(everything possible to say)to be said by his campaign.

My first reaction if Obama said “I don't know what's it's like to be born with a silver spoon in my mouth” would be........

“What kind of spoon were you born with in your mouth?” “I know how I paid to go to BYU and Harvard, what no one knows is how you could afford to attend Occidental, Columbia and Harvard”.

This is getting to be hilarious-—all the establishment types like Malkin desperately instructing Romney on “How To Talk Conservative.” His head must be ready to explode, between Rush, Mark, Laura, all the Fox hosts telling him what to say, how to act, blah blah blah.

Sorry, Michelle-—you decided that Newt was unacceptable to you. Now you sound like a moron complaining about Mitt.

Calling someone who is personally churlish and is also a lout, a good man and a gentleman, is to vastly dilute and demean the terms “good man” and “gentleman”.

You cannot pick up a piece of fecal matter by the clean end, nor can you apply polish to it.

Romney sounds like McCain, a loser strategy. There is no way Obama or his MSM would call the opponent a nice guy. The race card thing will only work again if the GOP candidate bows down to it.

Amoral psychopaths see their own image in the dark souls of other psychopaths. It’s beautiful to them. It’s safe because they don’t have to worry about each other exposing their killings and corruption.

Mittens does not have to worry about Obama bringing up his public school kiddie homo grooming programs and diddling, “gay/straight” homo sex clubs and Obama does not have to worry about Mittens bringing up the bloody trail of baby killing.

All psychopaths agree to keep all that moral judgement divisiveness out of politics and power! Soullessness is peace and “smart”! It’s “progress” and both Obammy and Mittens are “smart” guys who share “progress.”

Romney sounds like McCain,

I would expect nothing different...just moreso. Wouldn't surprise me if he simply hands the Presidency to Obama as McCain did. ...Romney handed it to McCain so McCain could hand it to Obama...for the promise he'd run this time and get "his turn".

But the show must go on...

I would also be tempted to slip in some comment about Obama’s confessed cocaine usage and what kind of spoon did he have to his nose.

There was a thread the other day with a post about his Hawaii childhood school...current tuition is about $18,000, it looks like a lush college campus. His grandmother was VP of a bank.

Communist tactic propaganda...Lies, Lies, Lies

Malkin, in this video made the same point as Breitbart. They don't get a second chance to run on their fake narrative. Call them what they are, we see their actions and agenda (paraphrase)

If you watched the entire interview on Hannity you would know that he did indeed take it BarryO -- in a big way. He took him to the woodshed but prefaced his comments with "he's a nice guy" but....

That was definitely a great catfight between Malkin and the liberal hag. Usually Malkin comes on by herself so I had a feeling this would be good, since she can get into quite a furor even just talking about Obama without having one of his surrogates there. Her eye-rolling was off the charts. Her frigid reaction to Romney was just icing on the cake.

Willard will never really take it to Dear Leader. He doesn’t have it in him.

She's been complaining about Mitt for a long time. She trashed Coulter for calling him a conservative. She was for Santorum but she was never for Mitt. So there's nothing inconsistent here. Her only crime is being stupid enough to think Santorum ever had a chance, same as all of his supporters.

I think Willard meant, ‘nice guy’, as in: “nice guys finish last.”

“I would also be tempted to slip in some comment about Obama’s confessed cocaine usage and what kind of spoon did he have to his nose.”

In a sane world, where things make sense, and men still possess cajones, that is exactly what he would say. It seems that we are on the same path we were in ‘08, y’know, where it’s paved with good intentions and we know where that leads us...

I have been saying it for months. Take the gloves off, or America loses. BIG time.

One FReeper's appraisal of the unwillingness -- the outright refusal -- of even conservative media (like Rush, Hannity, Medved) to talk about Obama's background and suppressed credentials (his very first Executive Order, issued minutes after he was sworn in), is here in this FR post:

Why not forget the “he’s a nice Guy” preface in the future and just factually lay it on him?

Punahou School link

Campus

The Punahou School campus covers 76 acres at the edge of lush Manoa Valley. Students occupy 44 school buildings, including three libraries and learning centers; computer areas and language labs; an impressive physical education facility (that includes a gymnasium, 50-meter pool, Mondo track, playing fields, racquetball and tennis courts, and weight and training facilities); and art facilities that include jewelry, ceramics and glassblowing

Obama trying to change history again. Elitist, posing.

Hannity’s been pretty good about checking Obama’s background, I think. He even made the ominous statement recently that “he was warned” back in 2008 that “his career would be over” if he started talking about Obama’s radical connections, but he ignored the warnings. Of course he doesn’t get into the birth certificate stuff if that’s what you’re looking for.

This segment is definitely worth watching a couple of times. I was rewinding parts of it a lot last night on my DVR. Another funny thing is seeing the smirk on Hannity’s face as he watches the gals go at it. I think that’s because men inherently know that women are the stronger and more powerful sex. We know that if they ever figured out how to team up and work together, it would be all over for us. But women never can pull that off. So we enjoy watching them fight with each other. It makes us feel all the more secure that we’ll retain the upper hand in the gender wars.

“...Michelle doesn’t understand the utility of “damning with faint praise.”

That was my take ... dilute the value of the perception of Obama being a ‘nice guy.’ Romney knows Obama is seen as the nice guy in this race, the one voters would like to have a beer with, vs. Romney himself who appears more aloof, a little too stiff. (of course, I see Obama as just as stiff as and even colder than Romney, but that’s not the common perception)

Nor do passels of FReepers. There are solid grounds for beginning with minimalist attacks. They are expected, and don't alienate potential audiences whom you may wish to recruit later. Good strategy to start with mild characterizations, followed by gradually more decisive descriptions at opportune times. IDK if this is what the Romney corps has in mind but it would work very well, given the generally broad but weak obama support.
