Romney accuses Obama of trying to "fool" voters

Mitt Romney accused President Obama of trying to "fool" voters into believing things about the GOP candidate that are "inaccurate" today when speaking to the press on his charter flight bound for Denver, Colorado.
Romney cited the auto bailout, tax cuts and abortion as areas where the president has "mischaracterized" his positions.
In defense of his stance on the auto-bailout, Romney said the president's charge that he called for liquidation of the industry could not be "further from the truth."
"My plan was to rebuild the auto industry and take it through bankruptcy so that could happen, and by the way he doesn't mention he took them through bankruptcy," Romney argued.
He calls the president's accusation that he wants to lower taxes on the wealthiest "completely inaccuarate," and he blamed the president of running false negative ads on his position on abortion.
"His ads on abortion he says I'm opposed to abortion even in cases of rape and incest and the life of the mother, that's wrong. One ad after another of his and statements has been determined to be factually inaccurate," Romney said.
Romney also claimed the presdient's negative ads were a factor in his falling behind in polls in all key swing states, but brushed the numbers off. He said he doesn't "pay a lot of attention" to the polls saying they will "unlikely remain where they are today" in the coming weeks.
The Republican candidate has come under fire for not campaigning aggressively enough in the final weeks of the election. His campaign has insisted that they are campaigning "vigorously," yet fundraisers have outnumbered public events.
Romney seemed to justify his light public campaign event schedule by blaming the president for breaking federal spending limit laws. Romney said he would "far rather" be out in the "swing states campaigning, door-to-door" but needed to stay "competitive."
Romney will be holding a rally tonight in Denver, Colo., where in just one week he will face off with the president in their first debate in just one week.
When asked if he needed to win the upcoming debates, Romney said that the election will not be won by the candidate who uses the "cutest phrase." Instead, he said voters will choose based on the message the candidate delivers.
"My job is to describe what I believe in a way that the American people will understand and make the choice that they feel is right for America. I believe what is right for America that will give people the most prosperous future and the most security that their lives will enjoy prosperity, and hope and opportunity, is a path that I think people will be attracted to and will vote for," Romney said.

Re: Romney accuses Obama of trying to "fool" voters

A vote for obummer is a vote for a weak USA. He thinks his foreign policy is up to speed. Sorry **** head but bowing to every leader of foreign third world countries doesn't cut it. And just because were better than those other countries is no reason to apologize to then for being better not that since you took over leading the USA we are better anymore.

So at this point, I guess no one is even reading these articles. Come on, it's on Fox; at least pretend before you blindly click like. Of course, the double speak is hard to decipher.

"My plan was to rebuild the auto industry and take it through bankruptcy so that could happen, and by the way he doesn't mention he took them through bankruptcy," Romney argued. So, he is against Obama's plan, but that was actually his plan too? Why was against it then, in his home state? Oh, and Ryan missed the memo Veep pick Paul Ryan voted for auto bailout opposed by Mitt Romney | MLive.com

He calls the president's accusation that he wants to lower taxes on the wealthiest "completely inaccuarate," and he blamed the president of running false negative ads on his position on abortion. so a 20% reduction, his flat tax plan, is not less than the current plan for the wealthy? Seems like it would be about 20% lower...Fuzzy math, as W would say Tax | Mitt Romney for President

"His ads on abortion he says I'm opposed to abortion even in cases of rape and incest and the life of the mother, that's wrong. One ad after another of his and statements has been determined to be factually inaccurate," Romney said.
Well, maybe he could stop channeling his inner John Kerry and actually keep one position on the subject.

He said he doesn't "pay a lot of attention" to the polls saying they will "unlikely remain where they are today" in the coming weeks. "I don't follow polls, but they are going to change"?? wait, how would he know that if he doesn't follow them?

Pretty sure nobody clicked "like" on the article?

This is the post that got the likes:

Those are his words that got the 'like(s)', not the article.

Now, I cannot speak for anyone else as to why they liked that post. I agree because I think Obama is weak on foreign policy. I think he is too interested in undermining our decades-old alliances. I think we need to be completely pissed about what happened to the most recent 4 Americans killed by thugs and I think we shouldn't give a damn that they're pissed, according to the White House, over a stupid movie, although it looks like that's not really why they're pissed.

I think we have to recognize that it isn't about a movie or that somebody said something less than flattering about Mohamed or whomever they worship. Unlike Obama, I completely understand their loathing is a direct result of the fact that we support Israel and, failing that, it would continue simply because they are bred to hate us because we are different.

Obama thinks if we show them some tolerance it will all be alright. I disagree. That's why I liked that post.

I just checked again. Still no likes for Smashmouth's post linking to that article.
