Obama Calls Romney Speech 'A Cow Pie of Distortion' By Kristen Welker

DES MOINES, IA – President Barack Obama delivered one of his most direct attacks against Mitt Romney here Thursday night, painting Romney as an out-of-touch corporate raider.

At this event, held before an enthusiastic crowd of 2,500 at the Iowa State Fairgrounds, Obama reminded the crowd that Romney said “corporations are people,” while stumping in Iowa last August during the Republican primary. The president said there may be value in Romney’s experience in corporate buyouts, “but it’s not in the White House.”

He also noted that the former governor doesn’t talk about his record in Massachusetts.

Speaking directly to Iowans, Obama used local lingo to slam Romney: “Governor Romney came to Des Moines last week and warned of a prairie fire of debt,” he said. “But he left out some facts. His speech was more like a cow pie of distortion.”

Then he quipped, “I don’t know whose record he twisted the most – mine or his.”

Obama warned his supporters that this race would be tougher than 2008 and argued that he represents the future and Romney the past. "We don't need another political fight about ending women's right to choose or getting rid of Planned Parenthood," Mr. Obama said as the crowd erupted into cheers.

“In this case, it’s queer eye for the cow pie.”

In Obama’s case, it’s more likely brown eye for the queer guy.

Time for somebody to resurrect the Reagan v. Carter debate tape, and run it as an ad for Romney:

"Ask yourself, 'Are you better off now than you were four years ago? Is it easier for you to go and buy things in the stores than it was four years ago? Is there more or less unemployment in the country than there was four years ago? Is America as respected throughout the world as it was?”

“At this event, held before an enthusiastic crowd of 2,500 at the Iowa State Fairgrounds...” ???

You can get more Iowans than that for a cow milking contest.

The likeability factor is fading fast for the American Idol POTUS...nothing left but the facade of an affirmative action beneficiary angry that people can’t accept his self-perceived brilliance.

Idiots. Iowa is not exactly a big dairy state. But then Obama probably doesn't know what a cow pie actually is.

We'll hear that in Obama's concession speech.

"...painting Romney as an out-of-touch corporate raider."

Rather than an out of touch anti-American, anti-Capitalist-Marxist and thief-in-chief for bailouts....which are unaccounted for, for the most part. Obama is trying to get Mit to lose his 'cool' like Romney did Newt.....DON'T BITE, ROMNEY!

He will probably use his famous middle finger pensive salute a lot._-I-_ either on an eyebrow or chin.

I remember Obama’s WTF slogan, which was unintentionally very fitting.
