is the way the nitt romney gang is castigating the President over his NERVE in even alluding to the death of OBL. As if it's bragging. Obama and his small group had been laboring over this herculean task for nine months and decided it was time to take OBL and 27 AQ terrorists, responsible for murdering thousands of civilians, OUT. That's what he said he'd do if the circumstances presented themselves, which they did. Yet he's "disgraceful" because he achieved it? Since it happened, he has said very little about it, but since the repukes have recently been hammering away at him for being "weak" on foreign policy, I can't help wondering how he is "supposed" to act. With regret and self-effacement? And for those complaining because the economy hasn't done a 180 since Obama took office--snap out of it!! They're saying in four years he should have restored what took bushco EIGHT years to "accomplish?" Anyone with an ounce of brains knows that it takes much, much longer to systematically build back up something that has been nearly destroyed. Not to mention all the times the repuke Congress has blocked any Dem bills that would ease the overwhelming hardship so many of us have endured under "w" and his debacle as "president." It's no wonder the ecomomy isn't recovering faster, what with repukes using every dirty trick up their sleeves.
Thanks--just had to get that off my chest!

(11,425 posts)There should be no contest in my book. Knowing that so many are swayed by Fox and stupid ads makes me shudder.

(22,885 posts)What I don't get is whether they are AWARE that they're lying or do they really BELIEVE the outrageous garbage they spew??
Either way they're sick! Truly.
