Politics • Views: 19,692

OK, we’re five minutes out, so here we go, folks.

Give ‘em hell, Barry.

Romney says

(1) he is going to collect less tax from the middle class.

(2) Then he says the very rich will pay the same percentage of the total tax collected.

(3) Then he says that is not a decrease in the taxes of the filthy rich.

Wouldn't paying the same percentage of a smaller sum be a reduction? (Not that he's even telling the truth about that -- just that what he's claiming violates arithmetic.)

Split screen Romney looks like he's watching his favorite house burn to the ground.

320 alpuz  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:34:24pm

Romney's got that 'Im pinching one hell of a uncomfortable loaf' expression going on.

re: #309 Digital Display

I had to fact check Obama.. I've paid 8400 dollars less in taxes over the last 4 years than under Bush.
Facts don't lie

I lost the job I had back then and have had to live on far less income too. My sympathies.

322 Mr. Crankypants  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:34:46pm

Barak is bringing it right to Mitt's door! YEAH!!!

323 makeitstop  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:34:54pm

You wouldn't take such a sketchy deal! Beautiful!

324 celticdragon  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:34:54pm

Yeehaw! This effing rocks! 7 trillion dollars and the plan is a mystery... :)

325 JamesWI  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:34:56pm

Jesus Christ Obama, why couldn't this guy show up at the first debate?????

326 researchok  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:35:09pm

When it comes to the economy, I don't believe either of them.

They're looking to skewer each other- no more.

327 A Mom Anon  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:35:10pm

Oh yeah,there's my President! Go! Get him.

328 Major Tom  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:35:29pm

I can't wait for the October 31st debate.... I hear Romney's going as the Frankenstein Monster.

329 Destro  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:35:36pm

"Of course they add up"?

330 God of Binders with Women  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:35:43pm

Well, of course it adds up!!!!

He found his spine again. Biden gave him lessons.

"I ran the Olympics" - Mitt looking small

333 HappyWarrior  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:35:50pm

Ran the Olympics, yeah with the feds help.

334 Charles Johnson  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:35:55pm

Romney now has that pinched condescending smirk that he gets when he's on the run.

335 Killgore Trout  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:35:58pm

"Of course they add up"
that's going to cost him.

336 austin_blue  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:36:01pm

Of course they add up.

Meh.

337 krypto  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:36:03pm

I ran the Olympics and businesses and when I say 2 +2 =5 you can trust me!

338 goddamnedfrank  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:36:06pm

"Of course they add up." That's it Mitt, you'll win their hearts with condescension.

339 SanFranciscoZionist  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:36:08pm

I hate this format. It's not for grown-ups.

340 Tigger2  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:36:13pm

Romney is starting to stutter some not a good sign.

341 Varek Raith  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:36:16pm

Of course my superlaser exists!

re: #325 JamesWI

Jesus Christ Obama, why couldn't this guy show up at the first debate?????

Because he was suffering from hypoxia. He was lucky to get out of Denver alive. Shit, Denver's so high they can't even get fires to burn.

343 freetoken  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:36:21pm

GREECE!!

344 celticdragon  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:36:24pm

Of course it adds up! I do it by force of will like the Green Lantern!

345 Killgore Trout  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:36:33pm
346 nines09  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:36:34pm

Mitt hasn't answered a single freaking question. What is your plan? "I'll make sure."

347 Hercules Grytpype-Thynne  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:36:59pm

"Of course they add up"?

Of course they add up. But I'm not telling you how.

Truest statement of the day.

349 freetoken  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:37:06pm

Both of these guys are trying to intimidate Candy.

350 Mr.Boots  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:37:06pm

Mitt using the up and down hand gestures for the simple folk.

351 diamonda2u  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:37:08pm

Romney has given the Pres Bain and his governorship as openings, he should go for it

352 Killgore Trout  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:37:08pm

Mitt getting testy.

353 Major Tom  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:37:16pm

Romney's doing the "I know how to do it! I know how!!" That McCain did during the town halls of '08.

354 Tigger2  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:37:32pm

Romney buttinkie is at it again.

355 goddamnedfrank  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:37:45pm

Gender pay disparity. This one's going to leave a mark.

356 aagcobb  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:37:46pm

That's in Obama's wheelhouse.

Isn't that what Al Sharpton said on SNL?

358 freetoken  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:38:13pm

Clearly these questions were picked by Obama sympathizers.

(wait for it...)

362 goddamnedfrank  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:39:23pm

Obama swings the Lilly Ledbetter hammer. Romney better tread carefully when it's his turn.

366 researchok  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:40:27pm

'Wasted debate.

367 nines09  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:41:00pm

Here we go. What will Mitt say? "Can't we find any wimmin that could be qualified? I got them. Don't ask what I paid them."

368 krypto  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:41:03pm

Governor of his state! Meanwhile people here in Massachusetts are voting overwhelmingly for Obama.

369 renata39.5  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:41:07pm

The more Romney talks, the more I'm certain he doesn't know what his own campaign site says his positions are supposed to be.

370 Mark Winter  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:41:09pm

"Binders full of women!"

371 God of Binders with Women  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:41:19pm

I guarandamntee you this story that Romney is peddling on his cabinet is crap.

re: #357 SanFranciscoZionist

Isn't that what Al Sharpton said on SNL?

It's what somebody (sharpton? gore?) said for real.

What Sharpton said on SNL was they were struck by lightning while shaking hands and Freaky Friday body switch.

373 Destro  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:42:21pm

Romney must have lost support by refusing to even acknowledge he would change course if his policy failed. Americans hate arrogant assholes.

Now he is stumbling on women equal pay question. He may as well be saying to women wear low cut blouses at your job so the boss will like you.

374 Coracle  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:42:36pm

So, Romney basically filled his cabinet with more women, effectively, because he undertook affirmative action.

375 I Am Kreniigh!  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:42:56pm

Mitt will be a shining example of gender-neutral hiring that everyone will imitate because of his awesomeness.

376 Destro  Tue, Oct 16, 2012 6:44:20pm

Mitt is soiling his magic underwear tonight.
