Romney backer goes off the rails...

Well, they sure are desperate to change the subject.

In a brutal campaign conference call Tuesday organized by Mitt Romney's campaign, several of the candidate's surrogates went after President Obama with fiery attacks accusing him of socialism, and being un-American.

"I wish this president would learn how to be an American," said former New Hampshire Gov. John Sununu said toward the beginning of the call. Asked later to explain his comment, Sununu said he was referring to Obama's economic philosophy, and apologized for not being clearer.

Sununu also said that by asserting Romney had committed a felony, the Obama campaign was inviting an investigation into its own "Chicago-style" politics. He concluded the call by calling Obama's campaign "clearly and unequivocally liars."

Among the other jabs at Obama were Kyle Koehler, an Ohio tool manufacturer, accusing the president of supporting socialism, and Renee Amoore, a Pennsylvania small business advocate, delivering a passionate diatribe about how her shared race with the president wouldn't win her support.

"Well, I've been black for a long time and he won't get my vote," Amoore said.

I do think we could start to see Obama's harsh attacks start to backfire. If Romney can spin it as an attack on the American way, they can make Obama look like a sort of foreign entity that doesn't understand America.

Of course. Because lying to the SEC and having bank accounts at Cayman Islands is as American as baseball and apple pie.

Px is just trying so hard, bless him, first with a thread that McCain once thought Palin was a better candidate, and now that Mittens has some intemperate supporters.  At this rate, Mittens should drop out with weeks, if not days. How can he stand this kind of pressure? He is going to decompose into nothing just like the wicked witch of the west in the Wizard of Oz when subjected to water boarding. 

Oh yeah, you don't know how hard it was to make Sununu go out there and tell to the press that Obama is a un-American pot-smoker.
The power of my telepathy sometimes scares me. Maybe I should change my nick to Professor X.

What's ironic is that the conservative Republican who called Obama's Americanism into question was born in Cuba to parents who were immigrants from the Middle East. So basically John Sununu was born in a Communist haven to terrorist parents. OMG!

When did Castro seize power? And, when was John Sununu born? But, why let minor details like facts get in the way of a good story?

You obviously missed his point, which was to poke fun at right-wingers' habit of taking Obama's exotic background and distorting it into all kinds of imaginative lies.

Well, is anybody really surprised that Big Sky Boob is unfamiliar with the concept of irony?

Winfield is right. There is no evidence that Romney lied.

Apart of course from those 142 documents signed by him as CEO and President of Bain during that period and his sworn testimony when he ran for governor of Massachusets.

David Gergen has admitted himself that he was on Bain's payroll, so his opinion ain't worth much.
