In an effort to win over auto workers in Ohio and across the Midwest, Team Romney this week unveiled a jaw-droppingly fraudulent ad rewriting Mitt's opposition to the federal bailout that saved the entire industry. But largely overlooked in the shocked response to his bogus claims about Jeep shipping U.S. jobs to China has been […]

So Mitt Romney has decided to end his presidential campaign the same way he started it. That is, by lying. During what his aides touted as a "major address" in Iowa Friday, Governor Romney charged that while President Obama "inherited a troubled economy," he "made the problem worse." That's the same long-debunked myth Romney used […]
After campaigning for months on the long ago debunked slander that President Obama "made the economy worse," Mitt Romney is now promising voters a "big change" over the next four years. President Romney's change would be big, all right, just not in the way he is pledging. That's because while a growing number of analysts […]
Back in June, Mitt Romney's top economic adviser Glenn Hubbard caused a stir when he took his partisan politics beyond the water's edge and onto the op-ed page of a German newspaper. Now, the man the New York Times labeled Romney's "go-to economist" has uttered something far more appalling, if entirely predictable. "The rich," Hubbard […]
If for nothing else, you have to give the 2008 and 2012 GOP tickets for getting their lines straight. On Thursday, John McCain rejoined Mitt Romney in support of embattled Indiana Republican Senate hopeful Richard Mourdock. That McCain would come around after accepting Mourdock's "apology" for proclaiming rape-induced pregnancies gifts from God should come as […]
Among the more puzzling moments of Monday's final presidential debate was Mitt Romney's call for the prosecution of Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad on war crimes charges. As it turns out, Romney has been urging the United Nations to indict Ahmadinejad ever since his "close friend" and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu first proposed it over […]
Among the six topics CBS' Bob Schieffer has announced he plans to cover during Monday's night's third and final presidential debate is "Red Lines - Israel and Iran." With Election Day just 15 days away, that discussion cannot come soon enough for American voters. After all, while the Obama administration has consistently declared it will […]
As the presidential candidates prepare for their third and final debate on Monday, recent polling suggests Mitt Romney has cut into Barack Obama's sizable lead on foreign policy issues. But if his demagoguery on China (where he apparently still profits from his portfolio of Bain investments) and Libya (where he accused the President of "empathizing" […]
Ann Romney raised some eyebrows this week when she used an appearance on the The View to equate her sons' missions for their church with military service to the nation. But while many Americans were doubtless disgusted with her analogy, few should have been surprised. After all, Mitt Romney hasn't merely stated that his five […]
Tagg Romney never fought for his nation, but for his thin-skinned dad he would take a swing at the President of the United States. But if he seems like the embodiment of Romney family values--unshakable belief in their own entitlement and destiny, unacknowledged privilege, generosity and charity which ends abruptly with their own family, friends, […]
