- The one thing you can count on in everything Rob-Me says is that it will be mostly lies and/or misinformation. But sadly the Fake News addicts just eat it up.

- Here is the Romney-Ryan agenda FACT CHECKED BY 60 MINUTES ...
Repealing the Affordable Care Act - which both Romney and Ryan have pledged to do - would re-open the so-called donut hole, a coverage gap in the Medicare drug benefit, which under the president's health-care plan is gradually closing.
Romney says "we're not going to reduce taxes for high-income people." A study put out by the Tax Policy Center earlier this month concludes that inevitably, Romney's plan would result in "large tax cuts to high-income households, and increase the tax burdens on middle- and/or lower-income taxpayers." (SO ROMNEY IS LYING) Further the non-partisan agency that reviews congressional budgets also said keeping Obama's health care reforms in place would not mean a $716 billion decrease in Medicare spending, as claimed by Romney and his campaign ad. (SO ROMNEY IS LYING AGAIN).
Ryan was one of three people on the Simpson-Bowles commission to vote against moving forward with the recommended plan to reduce the deficit, and was reportedly the person to throw a wrench into the "Gang of Six" deficit deal last summer. (SO IT'S NOT ABOUT THE DEFICIT, IT'S ABOUT GUTTING PROGRAMS REPUBLICANS DON'T LIKE)
The addition of Ryan to the Romney ticket moves the debate even beyond the budget and the economy into morality. The Ryan Plan is so damaging to social programs benefiting our poorest and most vulnerable citizens that it prompted the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops to publicly blast the devout Catholic for not just tearing holes in the nation's safety net but for his "shredding of the nation's moral obligations."
If you loved Bush Jr. ... you'll love Romney-Ryan ... with the same results! - Reply to this comment
- So Romney is LYING over and over, expecting the American people to fall for his LIES when every reputable source says ... "IT'S UNTRUE"! If he lies about something so transparent and debunked by "everyone" ... WHAT IS HE HIDING AND LYING ABOUT IN HIS TAX RETURNS?
