Awful night for a snippy, weak Obama
Boston Herald, by Margery Eagan

Original Article

Posted By:StormCnter, 10/4/2012 3:32:32 AM

I’ve never seen the Mitt Romney I saw last night. Romney attacked. President Obama never attacked back. Romney, when Obama spoke, looked straight at the president — mostly with his trademark, beatific, nothing-ruffles-me smile. When Romney spoke, Obama looked down or away or at moderator Jim Lehrer. He seemed annoyed, even exasperated. He must have known little was going well. At all. Romney, who needed to convince America that he really does have a heart, early on told about a woman with “a baby in her arms who said, ‘My husband has had four jobs in three years — part-time jobs.

Without his teleprompter and his speech writer, Obama is not as smart or as cool as they think he is. Obama looked like the President of the high school senior class not the President of the US. Romney rolled over him without batting an eye. I want to say, "We told you so." but I won't. That wouldn't be nice. Tee Hee.

Obama did not just have a bad night. What the nation saw last night was the real Barack Obama without his teleprompter and liberal media shields. The reason that Obama could not call Romney out on a lot of the stuff that Obama and his campaign have been putting out via campaign ads. is because those charges are false or deceitful with Romney just waiting to throw Obama's bogus charges right back in his face.

The President is supposed to be the leader of the country, and it is his job to work with both the Democrats and the Republicans in the Congress to get legislation benefiting the country through the Congress and passed into law.

A President is not doing his job when he demands that the Republicans abandon their political principles on just about every issue, a prime example being the massive Obamacare bill that Obama and the liberal Democrats rammed through the Congress without one Republican vote, or when he submits an extreme budget to the Congress that no Democrat or Republican could vote for.

I agree that Obama WAS snippy to the moderator, as if to say, 'Hey Bud, you're supposed to be on MY side.'

The line which Mitt did not actually utter, but everyone heard him say anyway, was...
... 'There you go again.'

WACO -- Clive Doyle is a pleasant-looking man of 72, with wavy graying hair. Australia lingers in his accent. He wore a leather jacket on the chilly recent afternoon when we spent more than an hour together at a picnic table in a Waco park. He was soft-spoken, articulate and seemingly very sane. Yet 20 years ago this Friday, this same man was one of only nine Branch Davidians to survive the internationally televised inferno on the Texas prairie.

Authorities on Saturday searched Seagoville storage units as they focused their investigation into the slayings of the Kaufman County district attorney, his wife and a top prosecutor on a former justice of the peace. Eric Lyle Williams is now the prime suspect in the murder of District Attorney Mike McLelland, his wife, Cynthia, and Assistant District Attorney Mark Hasse, law enforcement authorities say.

The budget released this week by the White House is by far Obama’s most ambitious statement of his legislative priorities since 2009, when, as a newly elected President, he produced a plan brimming over with initiatives like Obamacare, education reform, new spending to aid the depressed economy, and a cap-and-trade régime to curb carbon pollution. Obama’s 2009 budget presaged two years in office that were so legislatively far-reaching that, in Washington policy circles, the document was sometimes called the Big Bang. This new budget approaches the ambitions of 2009—with one glaring omission.

Here is something I don’t understand: liberals are often revealed as vile, vulgar hatemongers–not all of them, of course, but far too many–yet they never seem to pay a penalty at the polls.

How did Terry McAuliffe, the Democratic Party´s choice to run for governor in Virginia in 2013, get so rich? His first job out of college was with President Carter´s 1980 re-election campaign where he rose to be national finance director at the age of 22. Then, after graduating from law school, McAuliffe helped found the Federal City National Bank in 1985. Three short years later, the bank´s board elected McAuliffe chairman, making him the youngest elected chairman of a federally chartered bank in the history of the United States. Now why would a tiny young bank elect a campaign-worker-turned-law student

MIAMI — Carnival Corp. says all maritime interests must assist without question those in trouble at sea, a duty that would not include reimbursing the U.S. government nearly $780,000 for costs associated with the rescue of the crippled Triumph cruise ship. Carnival released letters Friday replying to an inquiry by U.S. Sen. Jay Rockefeller, a West Virginia Democrat who chairs the Senate Commerce Committee, about the Triumph stranding and the cruise line’s overall safety record. Among Rockefeller’s questions was whether Carnival would repay the government for Coast Guard costs in the Triumph case as well as

The recent kerfuffle over a secret recording of Sen. Mitch McConnell’s campaign strategy meeting, which focused on opposition research about a likely opponent, actress Ashley Judd, has divided observers into two groups. One consists of those disturbed by the bugging of a private conversation. The other consists of people who were mostly offended by the content of the conversation, which concerned Judd’s emotional problems, and laughter about certain odd comments she has made over time. First, welcome to reality. Nothing about this episode, first exposed by Mother Jones magazine, is novel or especially outrageous, except for the allegedly illegal activity.

The 9/11 Memorial foundation, funded to the tune of $830 million, has begun nickel-and-diming visitors for ticket reservations. Even though the nonprofit has long vowed admission to the sacred site would be free, it is now demanding $2 per ticket for all advance reservations made online or by phone. Officials quietly rolled out the fee on March 1 — but it did not escape the notice of some outraged families of Sept. 11 victims. “I don’t want the American public to have to pay a dime to pay respects to my son,” said Sally Regenhard, whose firefighter son, Christian,

When Ambassador Chris Stevens was killed by Libyan terrorists in Benghazi last September, it had been 33 years since an American diplomat had been killed in the line of duty. But it took just seven months for yet another American envoy to die violently. Her name was Anne Smedinghoff. A 25-year-old Foreign Service officer at the US Embassy in Kabul, she was one of the five Americans killed this month by a terrorist bomb as they were delivering donated textbooks to Afghan children. The other Americans killed with her were a Defense Department translator and three US soldiers.

W hat do we know about Kim? He´s the third and youngest son of former North Korean dictator Kim Jong Il, the "Dear Leader" who died in 2011. Because of the secretive nature of the regime, no one outside of Pyongyang´s ruling elite knows the young Kim´s precise birth date — experts think he is 29 or 30 years old — or his mother´s true identity. Some reports suggest she was Ko Yong Hui, a former dancer and mistress of Kim Jong Il who served as the country´s First Lady until her death in 2004.

Pro golfers, golf writers, and TV commentators are up in arms that Tiger Woods was only given a 2-stroke penalty for his illegal drop on the 15th hole yesterday. Tiger said last night that he dropped his ball two yards behind his previous spot, clearly violating the rule that you must drop "as nearly as possible" to your original spot. Golf people are not happy about it. They say that the new rule is B.S. (or it´s at least being misinterpreted), and Tiger should DQ himself to save the integrity of the game.

In Philadelphia, at a human abattoir on Lancaster Avenue, is where it ends, not where it starts. It starts with the perversion of language. It starts when the icons of a dissipated culture reduce a baby to a “fetus.” From there, Yeats’s blood-dimmed tide rolls rapidly in. Before long, a baby is not a person but a punishment, as President Barack Obama framed the matter in his familiar off-the-cuff iciness. Of course, to describe newborn children in their boundless possibilities and wonder would be to acknowledge, foremost, their humanity. That is why, instead, abortion enthusiasts must grope for words

The law, said Rockefeller, is “so complicated and if it isn’t done right the first time, it will just simply get worse.” Rockefeller’s consternation echoes comments made earlier this

Due to the United States media, most are aware that Timothy McVeigh slaughtered 168 people with a bomb in 1995. Most Americans also know the names of our three most monstrous serial killers: “The Green River Killer” Gary Ridgeway, Ted Bundy, John Wayne Gacy.

They say they were just doing what the boss trained them to do. But eight former employees of a run-down West Philadelphia abortion clinic now face prison time for the work they did for Dr. Kermit Gosnell. Three have pleaded guilty to third-degree murder. And Gosnell, 72, is on trial in the deaths of a patient and seven babies allegedly born alive. In testimony at the capital murder trial this past month, an unlicensed doctor and untrained aides described long, chaotic days at the clinic.

With President Obama, there’s always a catch. In the 2014 budget he announced last week, Obama proposed a more accurate way of calculating the inflation rate for annual cost-of-living increases in Social Security. It’s a technical change in pursuit of honesty and good government. And if adopted, it would cause benefits to grow more slowly, though almost imperceptibly so. Republican leaders in Congress ought to be delighted since they had “championed”—Obama’s word—the idea in the first place. Then came the catch. The president’s price for adopting this gentle reform was hundreds of billions in new tax increases.
