BILL MAHER DIGS UP ANOTHER MITT VIDEO

DOUBLE-DOWN LIAR: MITT BREAKS OWN RECORD IN 2ND DEBATE!

DOUBLY AMAZING! THINK PROGRESS POSTED THIS LIST OF ROMNEY'S SERIAL LIES, BREAKING HIS OWN PRIOR DEBATE RECORD: NO DOUBT AN ALL-TIME PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE RECORD: 31 LIES IN 41 MINUTES!! (CLICK LINK for the TRUTH.) And THIS TIME the President DID NOT allow this unethical, racist LIAR to get away with his SERIAL LIES:

1) “I want to make sure we keep our Pell grant program growing. We’re also going to have our loan program, so that people are able to afford school.”

2) “I put out a five-point plan that gets America 12 million new jobs in four years and rising take-home pay.”

3) “And the president’s right in terms of the additional oil production, but none of it came on federal land. As a matter of fact, oil production is down 14 percent this year on federal land, and gas production was down 9 percent.”

4) “Because the president cut in half the number of licenses and permits for drilling on federal lands, and in federal waters.”

5) “I believe very much in our renewable capabilities; ethanol, wind, solar will be an important part of our energy mix.”

6) “And coal, coal production is not up; coal jobs are not up.”

7) “And if we do that, if we do what I’m planning on doing, which is getting us energy independent, North America energy independence within eight years.”

8) “I will fight to create more energy in this country, to get America energy secure. And part of that is bringing in a pipeline of oil from Canada.”

9) “The proof of whether a [energy] strategy is working or not is what the price is that you’re paying at the pump. If you’re paying less than you paid a year or two ago, why, then, the strategy is working. But you’re paying more.”

10) “And I will not — I will not under any circumstances, reduce the share that’s being paid by the highest income taxpayers. And I will not, under any circumstances increase taxes on the middle-class.”

11) “But your rate comes down and the burden also comes down on you for one more reason, and that is every middle-income taxpayer no longer will pay any tax on interest, dividends or capital gains. No tax on your savings. That makes life a lot easier.”

12) “A recent study has shown the people in the middle-class will see $4,000.00 per year in higher taxes as a result of the spending and borrowing of this administration.”

13) “Fifty-four percent of America’s workers work in businesses that are taxed as individuals. So when you bring those rates down, those small businesses are able to keep more money and hire more people.”

14) “I went to a number of women’s groups and said, ‘Can you help us find folks,’ and they brought us whole binders full of women. I was proud of the fact that after I staffed my Cabinet and my senior staff, that the University of New York in Albany did a survey of all 50 states, and concluded that mine had more women in senior leadership positions than any other state in America.”

15) “I’m going to help women in America get good work by getting a stronger economy and by supporting women in the workforce.”

16) “I’d just note that I don’t believe that bureaucrats in Washington should tell someone whether they can use contraceptives or not. And I don’t believe employers should tell someone whether they could have contraceptive care of not. Every woman in America should have access to contraceptives.”

17) “So when you say that I wanted to take the auto industry bankrupt, you actually did. And — and I think it’s important to know that that was a process that was necessary to get those companies back on their feet, so they could start hiring more people. That was precisely what I recommend and ultimately what happened.”

18) “He said that by now middle-income families would have a reduction in their health insurance premiums by $2,500 a year. It’s gone up by $2,500 a year.”

19) “He keeps saying, ‘Look, I’ve created 5 million jobs.’ That’s after losing 5 million jobs. The entire record is such that the unemployment has not been reduced in this country.”

20) “The kids of those that came here illegally, those kids, I think, should have a pathway to become a permanent resident of the United States and military service, for instance, is one way they would have that kind of pathway to become a permanent resident.”

21) “Now, when the president ran for office, he said that he’d put in place, in his first year, a piece of legislation — he’d file a bill in his first year that would reform our — our immigration system… He didn’t do it. He had a Democrat House and Democrat Senate, supermajority in both houses.”

22) “Any investments I have over the last eight years have been managed by a blind trust. And I understand they do include investments outside the United States, including in — in Chinese companies.”

23) “It was a terrorist attack and it took a long time for that to be told to the American people.”

24) “Consider the distance between ourselves and — and Israel, the president said that — that he was going to put daylight between us and Israel.”

25) “The president’s policies throughout the Middle East began with an apology tour and — and — and pursue a strategy of leading from behind, and this strategy is unraveling before our very eyes.”

26) “We, of course, don’t want to have automatic weapons, and that’s already illegal in this country to have automatic weapons.”

27) “The — the greatest failure we’ve had with regards to — to gun violence in some respects is what — what is known as Fast and Furious. Which was a program under this administration, and how it worked exactly I think we don’t know precisely, where thousands of automatic, and AK-47 type weapons were — were given to people that ultimately gave them to — to drug lords.”

28) “What I will do as president is make sure it’s more attractive to come to America again.”

29) “Canada’s tax rate on companies is now 15 percent. Ours is 35 percent. So if you’re starting a business, where would you rather start it? We have to be competitive if we’re going to create more jobs here.”

30) “And there’s no question but that Obamacare has been an extraordinary deterrent to enterprises of all kinds hiring people.”

31) “He said he would have by now put forward a plan to reform Medicare and Social Security, because he pointed out they’re on the road to bankruptcy.”

QUOTABLE: OTHER PSYCHO ROMBOT SON THREATENS PRESIDENT

SAID TAGG ROMNEY (THE OTHER ROMBOT PSYCHO-SON) IN A RADIO INTERVIEW: HIS "FANTASY" WAS TO "Jump out of your seat and you want to rush down to the debate stage and take a swing at him."

Nice. Yo Tagg, why don't you channel your PSYCHOTIC violent impulses toward something useful, like serving your country ... I understand the Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marines are recruiting. Oh I forgot: Your 'patriotic' family NEVER served in the military. Too busy in the multiple wives commune down Mexico way.

AMERICAN PSYCHOS: LIKE FATHER, LIKE SON ...

SCENES FROM THE HOFSTRA ROMNEY DEBACLE, AS PRESIDENT OBAMA was skewering the Romney patriarch. Josh Romney sure doesn't look like a happy camper. (Oh Candy! Josh would like a word with you ... in private. Kidding, kidding.) But seriously folks, as I've been saying all along, these folks are SCARY STRANGE ...

CNN Focus Group Better Than IDIOTS MSNBC Drug Out of a Cave

OOPS ...

Re: The Passage Below ...

CHRIS HOSTED JAMES LIPTON from the Actors Studio to analyze the debate, today, at which time the passage below was played in full. The high drama in the exchange was when President Obama glared at Romney and said his politicization of the Benghazi murders of our diplomats was "offensive." It shouldn't have been edited out, whatever the reason. 'Nuff said.

As James Lipton said, Romney's rudeness and condescension toward the President saying, "you'll get your chance in a moment," was a sad commentary especially considering the outcry had the roles been reversed. Such disrespect for the President and the presidency from Republicans deserves no quarter. None. They're notorious for playing the refs (Media) and for whining incessantly. Typical bullies.

Why Did MSNBC Censor The Word "Offensive"?!

IN THE POST-DEBATE ANALYSIS WITH CORPORATE TOOL Chris Matthews the word "OFFENSIVE" was lopped off by MSNBC censors during President Obama's strongest moment. Here is the COMPLETE exchange: (Emphasis mine.)

"The suggestion that anybody on my team, whether it's a secretary of state, our UN ambassador, anybody on my team, would play politics or mislead when we've lost four of our own, governor, is offensive. That's not what we do. That's not what I do as president, not what I do as commander in chief."

The President glared at a wilting Romney before turning on his heel and walking back to his seat. Here is MSNBC's broadcast version:

"The suggestion that anybody on my team, whether it's a secretary of state, our UN ambassador, anybody on my team, would play politics or mislead when we've lost four of our own, governor, is offensive. ... That's not what we do. That's not what I do as president, not what I do as commander in chief."

This kind of CENSORIOUS editing is SHAMEFUL and OFFENSIVE to the viewers. What do you take us for?! Who are you protecting and why?! Chris, I challenge you to play the FULL exchange on your show. Show us you're no corporate tool.

USELESS MSNBC IDIOTS

ERIN McPIKE AND CHUCKLES TODDY. BOTH said the President didn't give voters a vision for his next four years. Both ARE WRONG. The President's next four years is to consolidate and follow through with the achievements and initiatives of his first term. Steady as she goes. Whaddya want, a laundry list?! He can do that; but it'll put everyone to sleep. Jonathan Alter, the historian, was STELLAR in his appraisal of the President's closing statement in which he got a big fat softball over the plate, named the 47%, and knocked it out of the park with devastating effect, for there was no rebuttal.

FOCUS GROUP OF EFFIN' IDIOTS!!!!

JEEZUS H. CHRIST, THE STUPIDITY OF THE AMERICAN VOTER IS BEYOND RATIONAL UNDERSTANDING! VOTERS IN OTHER DEVELOPED COUNTRIES AREN'T NEARLY AS STUPID AS THE MSNBC FOCUS GROUP OF 'UNDECIDED VOTERS' WHO, BY DEFINITION, ARE FUCKING IDIOTS! THE ONLY EXPLANATION I CAN THINK OF IS A MASSIVE FAIL OF OUR EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM!

Quotable: Rachel Maddow (Our Sweetheart)

"I felt like I was watching CAPOEIRA ... The way those two guys were circling each other." Nice cultural reference, Rachel. It might have gone over most of your colleagues' heads, but not here, as you might imagine! And you know, it's the PERFECT metaphor for the President's ultimate victory, for he'd look great as a capoeirista with all the moves — Mitt Romney ... UGH, not at all.

Capoeira is a Brazilian martial art that combines elements of dance and music. It was created in Brazil mainly by descendants of African slaves with Brazilian native influences, probably beginning in the 16th century. It is known by quick and complex moves, using mainly power, speed, and leverage for leg sweeps.

:04 SECOND POST-DEBATE ANALYSIS: GRAND SLAM-O HOME RUN!!!

PRESIDENT OBAMA'S OLE-FASHIONED ASS WHUPPIN' OF MITT ROMNEY WAS BRUTAL — B.R.U.T.A.L! YES!!

Recipe For Taking Romney Down Tonite

DEAR PRESIDENT OBAMA. Your languid, watered-down, bland, flakey, mincemeat prescription for taking on the Chameleon Romney Changeling in the first debate just didn't do the trick. No chef worth his sea salt has ever crushed the competition by being "polite" to the adversary or to incompetent judges/moderators. So here's your suggested metaphysical recipe for this evening's Mittbake:

• A DASH OF JFK (To look "presidential")

• A PINCH OF TRUMAN (For flavoring only; Joe Biden took the lion's share)

• A GENEROUS SPRINKLE of ABE LINCOLN (For the personal, personable and wise)

• TWO PARTS RFK (For that soft-spoken passion, vehemence, advocacy for the 47%)

• TOP IT ALL OFF WITH BILL CLINTON 'TO TASTE' (For that down-home 'explainer' thing)

Wash it all down with your special White House home brew, and you'll be ready to roll, Mr. President!

TIME TO PUT THE NAILS IN THE MITT-MONSTER COFFIN.

Justice For Amanda Todd: ANONYMOUS 'Outs' Her Alleged Tormentor

THIS IS AWESOME. ANONYMOUS HAS SENT a message to every internet predator, bully, child pornographer, et al, who think they can safely hide behind firewalls from Hell: "We are ANONYMOUS. We are legion. We do not forget. We do not forgive."

ANONYMOUS claims the 32-year old man it has outed as Amanda Todd's primary tormentor, driving her to suicide, has also made postings to child porn sites. While we should certainly discourage vigilanteism and allow for justice to take its snail's-pace course, these guys have done good. Read all the details here. As Jezebel notes:

In light of Gawker’s exposure of notorious troll Violentacrez, and Katie’s article about CreepShot-posting creeps being called out, it feels like there’s steady momentum in the direction of increased intolerance of this specific brand of internet bullshit. Maybe taking away the anonymity of these people won’t completely solve the problem, but perhaps it’ll slow things down, allowing would-be harassers to think twice. It likely won’t stop the real psychopaths, those hell-bent on being creeps, but it’ll probably encourage people who aren’t 100 percent devoted to being gross to put the brakes on. Plus, there is so much power in peers telling peers: “Hey, what you’re doing isn’t cool, so knock it the fuck off.” I’m guessing that’s our most effective weapon in bully culture, the ability of everyone on the sidelines to say, “Shut it down, weirdo!” Threatening to expose their asses is the internet equivalent of a badge of shame, but perhaps worse; trite as it is, you can’t take the internet off at the end of the day. Your name will always be out there, forever branded. Don’t believe me? Just Google “Michael Brutsch.”

Attn: AIRHEAD FEMALES PLANNING TO VOTE ROMNEY-RYAN'S PECS — THIS IS FOR YOU

10-15-12 New York Times Editorial. (Emphasis mine.)

If Roe v. Wade Goes

It is no secret that Mitt Romney and his running-mate, Representative Paul Ryan, are opponents of abortion rights. When Mr. Ryan was asked at last week’s debate whether voters who support abortion rights should be worried if the Romney-Ryan ticket were elected, he essentially said yes.

They would depart slightly from the extremist Republican Party platform by allowing narrow exceptions for rape, incest or the life of the woman. Beyond that, they would move to take away a fundamental right that American women have had for nearly 40 years.

Mr. Romney has called for overturning Roe v. Wade, the 1973 Supreme Court ruling that recognized a woman’s constitutional right to make her own childbearing decisions and to legalized abortion nationwide. He has said that the issue should be thrown back to state legislatures. The actual impact of that radical rights rollback is worth considering.

It would not take much to overturn the Roe decision. With four of the nine members of the Supreme Court over 70 years old, the next occupant of the White House could have the opportunity to appoint one or more new justices. If say, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, the oldest member, retired and Mr. Romney named a replacement hostile to abortion rights, the basic right to abortion might well not survive.

The result would turn back the clock to the days before Roe v. Wade when abortion was legal only in some states, but not in others. There is every indication that about half the states would make abortion illegal within a year of Roe being struck down, according to the Guttmacher Institute. The Center for Reproductive Rights, which challenges abortion restrictions around the country, puts the number at 30 states. For one thing, abortion bans already on the books in some states would suddenly kick in. And some Republican-controlled state legislatures would outlaw abortion immediately.

Even with Roe and subsequent decisions upholding abortion rights, more than half the states have enacted barriers like mandatory waiting periods, “counseling” sessions lacking a real medical justification; parental consent or notification laws; and onerous clinic “safety” rules intended to drive clinics out of business.

Mr. Romney is a vocal supporter of this continuing drive in the states and in Congress to limit the constitutional right, even without overturning Roe. To a large degree, the anti-abortion forces have succeeded. In 1982, there were about 2,900 providers nationwide; as of 2008, there were less than 1,800. In 97 percent of the counties that are outside of metropolitan areas, there are no abortion providers at all.

We do not need to guess about the brutal consequences of overturning Roe. We know from our own country’s pre-Roe history and from the experience around the world. Women desperate to end a pregnancy would find a way to do so. Well-to-do women living in places where abortion is illegal would travel to other states where it is legal to obtain the procedure. Women lacking the resources would either be forced by the government and politicians to go through with an unwanted or risky pregnancy, attempt to self-abort or turn to an illegal — and potentially unsafe — provider for help. Women’s health, privacy and equality would suffer. Some women would die.

Mr. Romney knows this, or at least he used to. Running for the United States Senate in Massachusetts in 1994 against Edward Kennedy, Mr. Romney spoke of a young woman, a close relative, who died years before as result of complications from an illegal abortion to underscore his now-extinct support for Roe v. Wade. In a report in Salon last year, Justin Elliott, a reporter for ProPublica, found that when the young woman passed away, her parents requested that donations be made in her honor to Planned Parenthood. That’s the same invaluable family-planning group that Mr. Romney has pledged to defund once in the White House.

BREAKING! DEVELOPING!! ROMNEY FINALLY RELEASES TAX PLAN DETAILS!!!

IN ADVANCE OF TONIGHT'S DEBATE, THE ROMNEY CAMPAIGN has issued a detailed explanation of how the Romney-Ryan tax plan is able to cut taxes by $5 trillion without raising taxes on the middle class or exploding the deficit. For ALL the details, click on this link, or access romneytaxplan.com.

CYBERBULLYING: Such Cruelty Is Hard To Understand

I GUESS IT'S ALWAYS BEEN THERE, IN TEENS, WHOSE BRAINS AREN'T FULLY DEVELOPED YET, but the internet has magnified everything. Maybe 'SOCIAL MEDIA' is a misnomer. The story of this beautiful young Canadian woman, Amanda Todd, who had so much to live for but was literally cyberbullied to death, is heartbreaking:
