At last night’s Republican debate, the seven candidates talked about unemployment, taxes, regulations, former Gov. Tim Pawlenty’s talk of a goal of 5% GDP growth, the individual mandate in the health care bill, the Independent Medicare Advisory Board, welfare reform, the Tea Party, currency policy, the National Labor Relations Board, Boeing, TARP, the auto bailout, Rep. Paul Ryan’s Medicare proposal, former Gov. Mitt Romney’s health care program in Massachusetts, raising the debt ceiling, raising the retirement age for Social Security, the role of religion in public life, the 10th amendment, Libya, Afghanistan, and so on.
But President Obama’s 2012 campaign is sending out a DNC video suggesting the candidates spoke only about sharia law, an anti-gay-marriage amendment, repealing health care, Sarah Palin, and the space program.
“You should watch this,” says campaign manager Jim Messina in the email to supporters, “if you or anyone you know is wondering where the leading GOP candidates want to go, this clip makes it clear. The first big Republican debate last night was like a time machine. They want to go back to the failed policies of the past that caused the economic crisis in the first place. They want to go back and reopen every settled debate that they've lost over the last few years -- on the health care law, on ‘Don't Ask, Don't Tell,’ and on reforming Wall Street's abuses. They even want to turn back the clock and end Medicare as we know it.”

What was that? Their best shot?
LOL
Idiotic in the extreme and feeble, as if gasping for breath.
Dishonest too.
It’s gonna be so easy to look down on Obama and rip his failures right along with what we are going to do about it.
Someone should say “I was sent here by the American People to replace you.”
“You’re FIRED!”
King’s spasmodic interruptions were annoying enough.
Great idea!
Yes it is their talking points of lies. Did they include Ryan pushing granny off a cliff in a wheelchair? No one but a very small percentage will fall for this crap.
Why is ABC exposing the talking points of lies is the question of the day?
Is it because this little step is nothing compared to them exposing Obama all the way, in his corruption of aiding and abetting and providing comfort to the enemy terrorists,WalpinGate,GunWalkerGate,KineticWarGate?
It is a big expose as it exposes Obama’s look at the shiny necklace con artist beyond politics- campaign.
Strange!
Could I please have the economy of 1956, 1971, or 1983 again?
Specifically, it is Jake Tapper at ABC, who has been consistently tough on Obama.
Return to the failed policies that caused the problem?????
The “STIMULUS” CAUSED the problem, and that failed policy is still in full swing with disastrous result.
We should should shout that simple truth from the housetops.
“......and what they have done to the middle class the past 3 years.”
3 years ???? The Democrat deconstruction of the USA began in 2007 with the Democrat takeover of the Senate and the House.
Gaining supermajorities in 2009, things could have gotten much worse than they did. We lucked out in that respect, but then again they are incompetant.
Their time has past, and it is up to us to roll up our sleeves, take away ALL Democrat power, and put humpty dumpty back together again....
