I guess the main reason I am disgusted at the first
presidential debate between Barack Obama and Mitt Romney last night is not
because the Barack Obama that I know failed to show up, although that did
disgust me as well. The main reason I am disgusted is because the nominate
winner of the debate did so not only because his opponent failed to show up but
also because he lied, lied and lied some more.
You don’t get to win a debate by lying.
But that is exactly what happened last night. Mitt Romney
lied.
He lied (again) about the $716 billion that Obamacare cut
from Medicare. There have been no cuts in services, none at all. The cut is the
one that we got from healthcare professionals who were anticipating the huge
windfalls of getting an additional 25 million insured Americans.
He lied about his healthcare plan containing pre-existing
conditions, a huge Obamacare seller. Not true according to his own advisor. His
plan covers people with pre-existing conditions who have pre-existing
healthcare insurance.
His denial that his tax cuts will add $5 trillion to the
national debt if he does not raise taxes on the middle class falls on deaf ears
here. A non-partisan think tank cannot find where he makes up the difference,
no one really believes he will make up the difference, his math is not fuzzy,
his math is a lie.
And finally his claim that half of the green energy
companies that the Obama Administration gave stimulus money to went bankrupt is
another casualty of fuzzy math. Either that or half of 36 is now 3.
Mitt Romney is a lying sack of poop and 47% of us know it.
