Mitt Romney doesn't lie like a politician, he lies like a sociopath


Truly gifted liars are frightening. Their commitment to lying and deceit in pursuit of a personal agenda - such as, for instance, becoming President of the United States - allows them to rationalize their lies as being for a greater cause. Mitt Romney is now, and likely has always been, a liar of the first order. He has attempted to walk back the moves he made during his time as Governor of Massachusetts, the moves he made as CEO of Bain Capital; he has denied the jobs he out-sourced, the taxes he didn't pay, the positions he supported or didn't support and, then denied his reversals. These are far greater moral transgressions than glib references to "Etch-a-Sketch" and "flip-flopper" can cover.

CIA Whistleblower John Kiriakou Inches From Jail So CIA Can Protect Torture Kingpin Thomas Fletcher

John Kiriakou will become the only CIA agent connected with torture to go to jail, and he's the one who refused to commit it and condemned it publicly. Meanwhile, the people who ordered the torture, the lawyers who justified it, the torturers themselves, and the people who destroyed the videotapes of it are all. . . free and unaccountable.
It's all OK, because you can bank that "strict constitutionalist" Supreme Asshole Scalia et al would assure us that it's what the founding fathers would have wanted.

The nation’s biggest banks be broken up and their size capped, and that the Glass-Steagall Act be resurrected

It would also remind America that five years ago Wall Street’s excesses almost ruined the economy. Bankers, hedge-fund managers, and private-equity traders speculated on the upside, then shorted on the downside — in a vast zero-sum game that resulted in the largest transfer of wealth from average Americans to financial elites ever witnessed in this nation’s history. Most of us lost big — including over $7 trillion of home values, a $700-billion-dollar bailout of Wall Street, and continuing high unemployment. But the top 1 percent have done just fine.

Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu seems to be “going berserk.”

Netanyahu is now demanding that the United States set a “red line” that, once crossed, will automatically initiate a U.S. attack on Iran. Bibi doesn’t even bother to pretend that war with Iran is in the interests of the U.S. He just wants the U.S. to recognize his red line and give him his war trigger. And he is increasingly fearful that he won’t get it.
This whole Iran scare is not about nukes per, but about the fear that a nuclear Iran jeopardizes Israel’s geostrategic supremacy. Bibi fears that he would lose his ability to do whatever he wants, to whomever he wants, whenever he wants. Bomb Gaza. Bomb Lebanon. Bomb relief ships. Bomb whatever.

Chalk up another victory for those who think every women's uterus should be controlled by the state.

Lori Klausutis death attendee Joe Scarborough makes 14 times Mika Brzezinski did

"I had found out that I was the lowest paid at the table and sometimes by far," she said. "I didn't think I should be making more than any of you guys...but these [disparities] were vast." (How vast? In another interview, Brzezinski said she was making fourteen times less than co-host Joe Scarborough.)

“The thing I will admit: I did not have any idea that it is seen as wrong in Christian circles to be engaged prior to being divorced even though separated. … That was a true error of judgment, but it was truly a case where I didn’t know better.”

Dinesh D’Souza is a dickhead. Fuck you Dickhed.

Ann Romney: It is Mormon prayer that keep American soldiers, sailors and Marines safe in battle.

Ann Romney, on today’s (October 18) episode of “The View,” thought for some reason that it would be appropriate to equate a Mormon mission with military service.
To suggest that a Mormon mission and military service are, in any way even remotely the same is absolutely disgusting. Want to know what Romney was doing during the horrific Tet Offensive in Vietnam? Here’s a helpful photo:
You see, like Orthodox Jew, who (and this is true) never serves in the ironically named Israeli Defense Force (IDF), it's Mormon prayer that keep American soldiers, sailors and Marines safe in battle.

High Frequency Trading Can Be Curtailed Simply With a Transaction Tax

Screw those crooks. Make them pay!

Has anyone figured out why it matters what Obama called the attack in Benghazi and why it should be a campaign issue?

But, by all means conservatives, please spend the whole day telling us that Obama did not say what he said. That is a winning strategy.
Who give a fuck what wing nuts whine about? They got their facts wrong, and it's not relevant in any regard! WTF?

Mitt Romney is a psychopath. "Bitches be in Binders!"

Republicans put Willard draft-dodging-coward Romney up for president. And Mittens is in a tight race. Kolob help the US of A.

DickHead Mormon Cultist actually said, "Binder Full of Women"!

Rated True: Romney stood in front of a coal plant, pointed at it and said, ‘This plant kills.’”
Kolob weeps.

The whole "Binder full of women" thing is a fucking lie too.

Your republican sub-human pieces of shit at work!
a UMass-Boston study found that the percentage of senior-level appointed positions held by women actually declined throughout the Romney administration

OBAMA: Can you say that a little louder Candy?

That piece of shit, mexican polygamist cultist re-lost the presidency. And fuck his entitled, smirky, asshole family too.
CROWLEY: He did call it an act of terror. It did as well two weeks or so for the whole idea of there being a riot out there about this tape to come out, you’re correct about that.
