Really, why won’t Obama discuss the facts with the American citizen?
Maybe he and Joe “put you blackfolk back in chains” Biden should counter this add. You know talk about how successful you’ve been at bending the cost curve.
Face it folks, Obama’s failed to lead and it shows.
Obama HAS failed to lead. Obama offers band-aids and Medicare CUTS when the country needs solutions. Romney-Ryan will not duck the hard issues, they will lead. This country needs some tough love. It’s time to stop living in denial with Obama and Colorado Pols…
It pretty much says everything we need to know about the truth of either of your statements.
Or fail miserably and laughably.
Romney’s credibility is in a shambles, and he’s just started!
They can start by telling the voters who the are instead of who they are not.
Paul Ryan is a part of the Romney ticket now. Romney’s plan is not the same as Ryan’s plan. Romney has said that he would not cut $700 billion from Medicare if elected, and Ryan says he is following Romney’s plan.
The ABC story actually says this, more selective quoting from Colorado Pols is why you don’t know the whole story.
and the Ryan plan. Because there isn’t a plan.
what do you (or Willard) think is wrong with the R-Ayn plan?
Has anyone seen any further specifics? I’m still waiting for a single one.
It has to really hurt when your candidate comes out and destroys the talking point of the day:
From Politico.com (from a local TV interview):
But your moronic, chest-thumping comments continue to make you sound like a dolt.
from the camp of St. Ronald: “Mr. Ryan’s plan is devoid of credible math or hard policy choices. And it couldn’t pass even if Republicans were to take the presidency and both houses of Congress. Mr. Romney and Mr. Ryan have no plan to take on Wall Street, the Fed, the military-industrial complex, social insurance or the nation’s fiscal calamity and no plan to revive capitalist prosperity – just empty sermons. http://www.nytimes.com/2012/08…
Which, if I’m not mistaken, is what passes for “strong leadership by men of principles” in today’s GOP.
like in fixing something that ails? or did you just fail to proof-read, like Ryan and his budget numbers.
gets excited and forgets to click on his spellchecker. But, his math is better… when he is on a role, he can really ad.

It’s the time to win an election.
Do you have any doubts about which candidate would increase or decrease entitlements the most while in office?
so it shouldn’t be that hard explaining the difference between cuts that don’t come out of your healthcare benefits and cuts that come by transferring $6500 dollars of the expense for your care back to you while giving you nothing but an $8000 coupon toward a years worth of your own insurance.
Also they claim that priority one will be overturning ACA. Just what kind of private insurance coverage is a senior with a history of cancer or heart disease going to be able to get with their $8000 coupon? And health care costs will continue to go up a lot faster than any increases you can expect in your next coupon.
Not hard to explain stuff. Maybe that’s why cable is full of segments showing Ryan and Romney not offering any details when asked about their economic plan including the medicare part and the part about how it doesn’t decrease the deficit. If they tell the truth it’s clear it’s pretty much a plan that benefits the top .01% and you need more votes than that.
Telling people that Obama rather than Romney/Ryan is going to cut their Medicare is a joke. All it does it put even more of a spotlight on the “marvelous” (to quote Romney) Ryan plan to destroy Medicare altogether.
Contrary to what Romney and Ryan believe, the American electorate isn’t that dumb.
The ad will fail, and will rightly open up Romney and Ryan to charges of outright lying and deception.
A pre requisite for running for high office is political hypochrisy. The Republicans have no monopoly on this.
this is the only hope the GOPers have of avoiding writing off Florida completely. Once those old folks get wind of the R-Ayn/R-Money budget plans for them (. . . “Oh, and screw your Grandkids you rode in on, too”) it’ll be game over in the Dangle State.
Team Willard’s only hope is to confuse the issue and pray to Moroni that people close their ears to the facts before the reporting begins . . .
When you say squirrel- have a squirrel. Just sayin.
now I got my iced tea all over Applebee’s booth here . . .
Cracker Barrel, Deep Fried Chedder, etc
It’s all death panels for profit.
btw
Heard some of the old people interviewed by NPR at his talk in St. Augustine the other day. They were buying right into the destruction of Medicare.
I “loved” the old woman that said it’s going to take sacrifice to save Medicare, and Americans are good at sacrificing. Overlooking the latter myth, this woman would have no sacrifice, it would be her kids.
Low information voters are bread and butter of the Republicans.
who said she knew Romney and Ryan and knew they’d protect Medicare.
Um, ma’am? Please read the section of the Ryan budget which says “we’re replacing Medicare with vouchers for private insurance, and decreasing the value of those vouchers over time”.
Romney’s plan is not the Ryan plan. They Ryan plan was never passed. Ryan says he is following Romney’s plan because Romney is the top of the ticket.
Romney can’t tell you the differences though between his plan
and the Ryan plan. Because there isn’t a plan.
your pimps are pushing you gals pretty hard to get that trick out on the streets this afternoon . . bet you’re gonna be sore in the morning.
What was this house roll call about? http://clerk.house.gov/evs/201…
Wasn’t that the following bill? http://themiddleclass.org/bill…
It sounds like GOP boosters are trying to have it both ways here. On the one hand claiming that we need to elect more Republicans in order to make plans like this pass.
On the other hand, failing to take responsibility and downplaying their actions with a “it never passed”.
Which is it? Need to elect more GOP to make these things pass or the GOP doesn’t really take responsibility since this didn’t pass?
While you’re at it. How about a link to the Romney economic plan.
Look, a Dream is not a Plan. Aphorisms about cutting taxes do not make a plan. Underwear Gnomes Logic is not a plan.
Libertarian Unicorns don’t exist.
– separate from Ryan?
– economic plan
– vet issues
– status of Afghan occupation
– Guantanamo
– Invading IRan
– Invading N. Korea
– secret, illegal wars in central and South America
– do black people have soul?
– Do women?
– How many houses do you own?
– where was your voting residence in 2004? 2008? Tax residence?
It’ll be all better when he’s Prez. Details are proprietary and not necessary for you to know.
You didn’t need his tax returns so why would you need ugly details on his 100% guaranteed results for more jobs and better times.
To Believe is all you need!
This is called LEADERSHIP people!
This message sponsored by the Romney/Ryan Traveling Medicine Show. Our magical economic elixir is available at a store near you.
“Say anything to get elected.” Somehow the CBO has yet to score the Romney plan, but I suspect it leads to deficits.
So give him Romney’s plan and shut him up. We’ve got Romney’s laughable budget “plan” (Sort of. And Ryans’s budget isn’t a plan; it’s a pitiful ideological screed.) but what about his health care reform plan? Or Ryan’s? Either one? Or, please, give dirt nap their “jobs” plans. Any plan–for anything. You got it, cough it up.
Admit it, Repug: Your team’s scared shitless to put out a real plan for anything, for the American voter to consider. (Except your Liberty to Impose Your Religion on Everybody Else Plan, your Women’s Subjugation Plan, your Save Ignorant People From Evil Fags Plan, your Pander to the Troops and Support Military-Corporate Capitalism But Screw the Vets Plan, your Big Tent With Separate Bathrooms or People of Color Plan and your Wave the Flag But Fuck America Plan.)
Why? Because your only real plan (which you think is your private little masturbatory fantasy, ArapaGOOP, but we’ve caught you in the act) is to impose upon America an ever-richer plutocratic dictatorship supported by troops of beguiled religious know-nothings.
But if Romney/Ryan does really have any sort of economic plan you’d care to discuss, please present it. Soon. Fidel’s dirt nap is driving me nuts with his repeated requests of you for a cogent Repug plan.
should read “for People of Color Plan”. Muffin crumbs in my keyboard.
OTOH- this is a tough ad. Politics, like math class, is hard.
Same tune, different verse. A little bid louder and a little bit worse.
