Why didn’t Hannity ask Romney about the tape? He was the one to break this big shocking news and had the guy on to ask him about it. I think the fact Hannity didn’t bring up the tape to Romney(probably a choice from the Romney campaign) speaks volumes of how much value that tape has beyond the Obama is a secret secular socialist Muslim who wasn’t born in America crowd on the far right
@Mark
Cheney/Bush doctrine.
Is the Obama/Biden policy producing better results?
@Doug
I am not a fan of the wall street crowd(ie Goldman Sacks), let’s face facts they are out to rig the system and make a few bucks in the process(and I will be the first to say Obama was way to soft on Wall Street). But the warhawk crowd are just plain disgusting, they are out to make a few bucks at the expense of peoples lives

I do not think there is anything secret about obama being a socialist who is determined to redistribute income in our society…hes very open about that, the problem is money will flee our borders and then what??
@Why didn’t Hannity ask Romney about the tape?
Because the Romney camp didn’t release it and he knew the standard answer would have been given, as in a royal round around and never get an answer like all of them do.
The tape may or may not have an effect, but it’s as news worthy as the 47% video released. More are coming from both sides, and something tells me none of them will be de-nounced.
And in all honesty? Its from their own mouths, so they (both) get called on their own statements, it’s news worthy and I say get it all out…
@Coffee Steve
If your 2 options are a 10 pound bag of poop or a 5 pound bag of poop, I’ll take a 5 pound bag of poop(ie Obama stance on defense spending and foreign policy in general). I don’t want to go back to 10 pounds of poop. Simple fact is America needs to learn to stop sticking their nose in other peoples business, nobody declared them the “world police”.
Coffee,
Unfortunately, dental implants aren’t covered by insurance, but , if you went to a dental school clinic ,they run about $ 1200 a tooth , & you’d need two of them for a bridge. I have a friend here who haad the implants done. I know that’s a bundle, on top of the bundle it costs to go to Hawaii. I know, I’ve been there.

San Fran Leftists Hold “F*** Columbus Day” March, 22 Arrested…
As they marched they vandalized cars, slashing the tires of one car and breaking the window of another. They also smashed a Starbucks window. About 15 minutes into the march, they began to throw flares and bags of paint with rocks in them at the police who were accompanying the march

Yep, should be a bombshell and in any other election on either side it would have been, but this election? YOU’LL HAVE TO TURN the volume WAY UP to hear anything about it.
Mark
That tape was edited and you can not get the full tape now. Why does the alphabet News media not ask this. The story is the press. When a tape on BHO is out and you can get the whole tape is you want. The Media will say edited.
Where is the Lib Media now
@Mark
Pick a time span, 2 months to 4 years. Your call
MY main beef with the Democrats when it comes to foreign policy is they have absolutely no backbone to do much other then give us a slightly modified better version of what the Republicans want(or shall i say neocons want)
Good morning all,
Coffee Steve, they are not misrepresenting the fact that Rosen in his own paper stated loss of deductions would make those households making over $100,000 but under $200,000 will go up.
@Doug Z
so you are telling me Romney didn’t say that 47% of America has no drive and feel sorry for themselves and leech off the system? Give me a break about the “edited” tape. Romney said what he said and as I pointed out unless the edited tape has a scene of him saying “I am joking about all this” there is not much that can counteract that

Thats why I like you so much, you put things to where even I can understand them LOL

You are spinning. You do not know what he meant. Why is the news not covering David Corn and mother Jones for this.They went after Breitbart.com
