Romney sets GOP fund-raising record, raises $100 million in June; and about that “freeloader” penalty tax…

I guess Dear Leader has every right to be worried about being the first president to be out-raised and outspent by his opponent. But let’s NEVER underestimate dumocrat chicanery, deceit, and outright theft when it comes to doing whatever it takes to win steal elections via voter fraud.

To those libtard losers, the ends justify the means. I mean, c’mon. How to you think that imbecile Al Franken ended up in the U.S. Senate? Or Christine Gregiore beat Dino Rossi to became the governor of Washington?

But that being said, the interesting thing to me is not that Romney raised more than Obama, but what an Obama hack/spokes-idiot named Ben LaBolt actually said after being told about the $100-million month:

“Mitt Romney is trying to distract from a week when he took contradictory positions on the freeloader penalty in the Obamacare Act and we learned more about his offshored finances in Switzerland, Bermuda, and the Cayman Islands.” (Note to Ben, it was not Romney who changed his position, it was Romney who corrected what one of his spokespeople mistakenly said). Anyway, back to my main point-

“FREELOADER PENALTY”???

Newsflash to Ben: Don’t you realize that the freeloaders, leeches, and parasites of America you seem to disdain are Obama’s and the rest of you dumocrats’ (and LGF’s, but I digress) core constituency? And that the “gimme more Obama money” crowd of lefty parasitic losers, along with the blacks, are the only group you can actually count on as dependable dumocrat votes every election (if they remember what day they’re supposed to vote)?

I wouldn’t doubt it if Je$$e Jerk$on, Al (Not-so) $harpton, and the rest of the libs’ race-baiting dumocrat poverty pimps would like to have a word with you for insulting their people.

And about Romney’s “offshored” finances, who cares? First of all, there’s no such word as “offshored”, and secondly, again, who the hell cares? My savings account at US Bank used to pay me a whopping .10% interest, yep, one tenth of one percent! And some saps only get half of that- .05%! Then I wised up and moved it to an IRA.

Romney to Obama: “It’s still about the economy…and we’re not stupid.”

Predicting “a campaign of diversions, distractions, and distortions” from Obama over the next six months, Romney warned his opponent: “That kind of campaign may have worked at another place over in a different time. But not here and not now. It’s still about the economy…and we’re not stupid.”

I have to admit that so far I’m getting stoked listening to Mitt Romney in the early stages of the race for the White House. Romney came out with both guns blazing and ripped Obama for his distortions, distractions, obfuscations, and lies and warned the Obama regime that he’s not just going to sit back and take more of their distortions, distractions, obfuscations, and lies like that loser John McCain did in 2008.

Ladies and Gentlemen, I think we’re actually going to have a GOP fighter for the White House, who will fight to win, unlike what we had in 2008, which was an old man who was too concerned about being labeled a racist to put up a fight. McCain proved that just because you were a war hero almost half a century ago it doesn’t mean you still have that warrior’s mentality when it comes to doing everything you can to defeat your opponent.

McCain seemed just happy to be there, and if he won, he won, and if he didn’t, oh well, he still had his senate seat to go back to. So what we got was a pathetic campaign, run by a pathetic candidate, and that, along with the deification of our Dear Leader, by the propaganda wing of the dumocrat party, the mainstream lib media, and their tingling legs, etc., well, McCain was destined to lose.

But just listening to Gov. Romney lately, since he has locked up the GOP nomination has given me hope that thankfully, for once, we’re going to have a candidate who will not worry about offending Obama and being labeled a racist by libtard detractors, since we all know that will be coming down the road.

So, what should Romney do? As Former Clinton adviser James Carville summed it up nicely, back in 1992, when he was asked what the race between Bill Clinton and George H.W. Bush would hinge on, he said “It’s the economy, stupid”.

If Romney continues down this path and ignores the distortions, distractions, obfuscations, and lies that we’ll be hearing ad nauseum from the libs and their allies for the next 6 months, then this race will be what it should be- A plebiscite about Obama and his disastrous economic and fiscal policies that have not only not helped, but have made things exponentially worse for the vast majority of Americans since Obama took office in Jan. 2009.

We know Obama will still be blaming George W. Bush, and his lackeys will be using the same old tired libturd rhetoric they have used in every election, going back to Harry Truman, about Republicans being extremists who want the poor living in the streets and kids to starve, the air and water polluted, the non-existent war on women, illegals rounded up and deported, and claiming that they’ll take away grandma and grandpa’s social security.

So, Romney’s campaign needs to ignore the distortions, distractions, obfuscations, and lies, and focus like a laser beam on “It’s the economy, stupid”, and, as President Reagan asked in 1980, “Are you better off than you were four years ago?”.

If he does that, then on Jan. 20, 2013, he will be sworn in as the 45th President of the United States, and this 4 year reign of terror on our liberty and economy, by the Obama regime, will be thrown into the dustbin of history.

Then it will be left to the adults, the Republicans, who will also have control of the House and the Senate, to clean up the mess that has been made for the last four years by the children, the Obama regime and the dimocrats in congress.

Political Meme Mashup = WIN

The whole dog meme amuses me because it’s inherently stupid on so many levels. I like stupid when it’s funny, so let’s sum it up.

The Left made a big deal about how Mitt Romney transported his dog in a carrier decades ago.
The Right countered with Ayers’ Obama’s claim that he ate a dog decades ago.
The Left responded with outrage that the Right had the audacity to mock them and put dogs in the middle of the Important Political Discussion  that the Left brought up in the first place.

So let’s clear the air. According to the AKC, this is NOT how to transport a dog:

THIS is the proper way to transport a dog, according to Obama and his disciples:

If I were a dog on the internet and was able to type an opinion, I’d tell the world, “Don’t eat me.” Then I’d tell them, “Don’t put me in a box in the dark belly of a plane because I’ll be scared for hours.” Then I’d say, “Let me car surf instead on The Overnight Open Thread.”

The delusional Biden: GOP candidates will bankrupt the middle class if they win the White House

More unbelievably idiotic comments by the imbecile occupying the Vice Presidency. Now I understand why “the Great One™, Mark Levin, has, for years, called this idiot “the stupidest man in the Senate” and now calls him “the stupidest Vice President we’ve ever had”.

Like I said a few days ago, he’s the gift that keeps on giving to the Republicans. Now, if only the GOP had the brains to run numerous commercials using this idiot’s words along with those of his boss Ruler, about how great they’ve been for America, they’d be rightfully trounced in November.

I have news for you dummy: You and your Marxist boss have not only bankrupted the middle class, you have bankrupted our entire nation with your reckless spending. Our Triple A credit rating is gone for the first time ever, thanks to you and the other Marxist dimocrats and your spending like drunken liberals.

Joe Biden is a buffoon. An ignoramus. A moron. A dolt. An imbecile. Choose your noun.

One would think that if one was going to take political potshots at your potential GOP opponents, one would at the very least have the brains to not shine the light on the massive deficit spending and the running up of our national debt to record numbers in record time, which will be the Obama regime’s pathetic legacy.

This massive debt, that the Obama regime and their partners in crime, the dimocrat-controlled House and Senate, have shackled us with, with their reckless out of control spending, will continue to burden American taxpayers for many years to come, if not decades.

Yet Biden had the audacity to say during a speech that “they (The GOP Candidates) will bankrupt the middle class if given the keys to the White House”!

This dimwit is either A. ignorant, B. delusional, or C. both. I choose C.

He also must think that the American people (other than the dumocrats and “moderates”, who we know are ignorant, because they voted for these dumbbells) are stupid and have amnesia.

You would think someone in the DNC would put a muzzle on this moron, since every time he opens his mouth, the stupidity just oozes out.

Biden Targets GOP Candidates in Speech, Says They Will Bankrupt the Middle Class

President Obama’s re-election campaign is in full swing, with Vice President Biden specifically targeting GOP candidates Newt Gingrich, Rick Santorum, and Mitt Romney in a recent speech. Biden said, “I want to tell you what’s real bankruptcy … the economic theories of Gingrich, Santorum, and Romney. They are bankrupt. If you give any one of these guys the keys to the White House, they will bankrupt the middle class again.”

Jehmu Greene thinks this is a clear indication that the race to the White House is on! She said that while Biden can at times make controversial remarks, “He, I think, is the best person to carry the president’s message.” She went on to suggest that no one else knows the president’s vision about helping Americans recover their economic security better than Biden.

Tammy Bruce said that she’s unsure how the vice president’s remarks will play with voters, saying, “Americans know what the Democrats have done and it hasn’t been good. Look, everyone’s talking about contraception – free contraception is not going to matter if your bedroom is the back seat of your car.”

Greene disagreed, saying, “I think as you look at the results of this administration, the middle class workers who understand how President Obama came in, saved the economy, and now is continuing to grow the economy, two million jobs over the last two years, they get that.”
