It's one of those moments that turned out to be prescient beyond anyone's idea. Chavez of Venezuela, speaking about Bush's wars and the influence peddling to get there, calls Bush the Devil. Later it would come out that we were lied to into the wars, that Bush all but handed the Presidency over to Cheney and that he would damn near cost this country everything.

It is true...there are still moments on TV that can make you say "Wow". After years of obstruction, debt lying, twisting self-made crises, Republicans are now trying to say that the sequester was President Obama's idea. Here is one shining moment on FOX NEWS as Rep. Keith Ellison bats Sean Hannity around so cold that Hannity tries and goes to the "angry Black Man" defense.

With all this talk about "the sequester", the right has constantly lied by stating that President Obama has offered no plan. Now there may be an argument about what he wants to do, but there ain't much in the way of dismissing it as NONexistent. Here it is as it was proposed months ago!

Perfect example of dodging the issue, using volume vs facts and out and out crazy trying to bulldoze a debate. Alex Jones, unwittingly, promotes violence and provides a model figure for someone you NEVER want to have a gun.

Then and Now: Racial ideas on the right in Ohio four years apart show very little change.

This was shot at a Palin rally in Ohio in 2008. Lies used to frame President Obama had just begun to stick into the groupthink.

This was shot this year in Ohio. Except "terrorist", the earlier language is now a firm part of the conservative common vocabulary.

Well now...ya boy Romney seems to have let loose with the 50k a platers while trynna make them feel all warm and fuzzy between puffs of their $100 bill cigars. Mother Jones published the story of a dem loyalist who clandestinely rec Mittens at a family gather-...uh...fundraiser laying down the law about us scumbags who pay no income tax because we want a Big Brother Government...rather than bringing lite to the fact that most of America pays payroll tax and doesn't suffer from the "income" tax problem. Their stuff is snatched before they even see it. Anyway go and get some popcorn...sit back and...you know....enjoy this tirade against the little people.

Was The Romney Rose Story Cribbed?

Some said that for the first time in the campaign the socially awkward Romney finally reached a touching point. A moment that held the arena in silence. A moment that even had one of his biggest critics, Chris Matthews, enthralled in the "Romney Story".

It was the telling of how Mitt's father put a rose by his mother's bed daily. And the extraordinary moment when she realized that he had passed...for the rose was not there.

It was deep.

Now of course the works of the father, good or bad, don't necessarily transfer to the son. Especially in romantic views of humanity. While articulating his father's gentle passion, Mitt is the man, remember, who said that corporations were people when, actually, one of the biggest tasks of a corporation is to make individuals faceless and nameless behind a shield of a logo. To "unpeople" risk and blame.

Still, the rose story resonated.

But then we started to think how difficult it might have been for the head of a major car manufacturing company, Governor of Michigan and, later, Secretary of HUD to make it home every night to place said rose in lieu of dealing with, say, union strife, floods and urban planning meetings.

A flower for a wife is not new. Men all over the world do it and it means something. But getting it there can be a bit of a task.

Enter a thedarkroome.com FB friend who dropped this article from the UK's DailyMail written in August of 2009. It beautifully and simply outlines a story of a farmer and a farmer's wife who, now in their 80's, still celebrate romance with a kiss good-night and good-morning and a rose for her. Everyday. This makes sense because they worked around one another sharing the intensity of the workload. He was there to place the rose because she was there to help him work.

At the opposite end of the scale is someone whose workload more closely resembled Daddy Romney's. Hollywood star Jack Benny...who, in this account, had roses sent to his wife every year and arraigned for her to receive a new single one everyday once he had died. That makes more sense because, you know, Benny's schedule and, uh, skirt-sprinting, caused long workdays. Now add in huge political or fiscal responsibilities and the logistics for "rose-droppin" get a little complicated. The more we think on this the easier it is to ask; maybe Romney actually DID take, uh, learn something from his UK trip?

Ryan The Myth. Ryan The Fraud. Why Paul Ryan's numbers are horrible.

Why Paul Ryan is the equal half of a lie. If he can't count better than this...he needs to give his diploma back. He is a myth. And they want it. He is a fraud.
