DES MOINES, Iowa -- What is on President Obama’s Christmas list?
It's Newt Gingrich being the eventual Republican nominee, according to a pro-Romney Super PAC.
“President Obama wants just one thing this Christmas,” reads the piece of literature from the political action committee, Restore Our Future.
The mailer goes on to link Gingrich with President Obama -- specifically having both supported taxpayer-funded abortions and redistribution of wealth. (The abortion charge is ironic, given that Romney supported abortion rights until six years ago.)
“Two men. Neither is conservative. Neither is consistent. Neither should be president,” the flip side of the mailer reads.
The Super PAC has been running some $3 million in negative TV ads against Gingrich, as well as releasing numerous mailers with similar messages.
All the Restore Our Future mailers, including this new Christmas one, asks caucus-goers to ask themselves one thing on Jan. 3: “Who is the consistent conservative who can actually defeat President Obama? IT’S NOT NEWT GINGRICH.”

This is the result of what happens, when SCOTUS declared that corporations are 'people' too...
Sadly, we ain't seen nothing yet!
Sadly they are super efficient liars on the right...I have spent the last two days looking at the young turks and others easily debunking all of their crafty lies
Who is the consistent conservative who can actually defeat President Obama? IT’S NOT NEWT GINGRICH.”
SMDH, it ain't Romney either. It's neither of the those two flip flopper. President Obama will prevail; I think.
Here's another reason why he prevails as a strong warrior. People all over America talk about what $40 means to them.

President Obama is standing strong like a tall warrior not conceding to another ridiculous hostage crisis the Republicans created. This is what a real leader and community organizer looks like.
President Obama organized the hell out of America from coast to coast; so much so the tea party copied it and they still can't touch him.
Hiya Bev!
Hope you're doing better today!
If I don't talk to you before, I'm wishing you & your family a blessed & joyous Christmas!
{{{hugs}}
Yea, the latest on the economy - where the census bureau reports that almost 1 out 2 Americans is now low income or poor after 3 years of Obama.
Yea, the latest on foreign policy - where 69 Iraqis are blown to pieces just 3 days after Obama pulls everyone out against military advice.
Yea, the latest on national security - where the Vice President doesn't even know who the enemy is in the longest war in American history.
Yea, .... it is going to get real ugly when the President who has produced the worst economic recovery since the Great Depression, who has nothing positive to run on, reverts back to the clueless community organizer / demagogue and starts spending his billion dollars in a desperate attempt to hang on to the keys of the White House and his precious AF1,
Good GOD... Bob lots of numbers!
Do you ever raise your head out from your trough full of HATE!
You don't need to respond, I already know the answer!
I feel sorry for you & your crew of malcontents, who can't take even an hour off from your insufferable rhetoric!
In any case, I wish you Happy Holidays!
What a way to twist it Bob........
Feisty Redhead Roselle, IL
Hiya Bev!
Hope you're doing better today
Thanks GF
I do. Tony's other grandmother came and got him. She just better not try to hog all the time with my big boy during school break . I have plans for him. I want to take him to the light festival at Lincoln Park Zoo and ring in the New Year with him. I give him a sprig of Welch's sparkling grape juice in his Mickey Mouse champagne glass after we come back from Navy Pier. Then we rush home to watch the fire works and ball drop at 12AM on TV.
Happy Holidays to you and your family too.
Dman right BoB, and what about that Christmas card sent out by the White House. The boys and girls on Fatuous Odious Xenophobe sure had a field day with that. What just one dog ... sheesh the Bush's had two dogs on theirs, now that's Christian.
Merry Merries to you BoB
"Good GOD" Feisty, I agreed with you ..... and am I the one playing the hate card .... and spelling hate in capital letters?
My guess is that the real emotional one is the one that hates that ....day after day, week after week, month after month .... she never has been able to refute anything.
as she would say .... lol.
You can spare the 3rd grade santimony for someone in the 3rd grade that might care, unless that is, you say that just to make yourself feel better. Then have it - I don't care.
You really don't understand how pathetic and infantile that makes you guys look to conservatives, do you?
Well thank you so very much.
You have a Merry Christmas too sweat cakes!
"bob" has a friend...his name is "neil"...when they go places together, everyone says "HEY! Here comes neil and bob!"
...what...
I agree Mickey - I have wasted WAAAY to much time on Booby!
Let him choke on his own petard!
He sure does have a inflated ego as to his
impotenceimportance... lmao!Poor little buddy still has NO wood in his pecker!
I'm done!
Let him continue to entertain himself, with some lotion & tissues!
I cannot fathom being that lonely and bitter! ;O)
BTW; Booby - make sure you put some extra maple syrup on your 'sweat cakes'...
Trust me, my cakes are sweet!
BoB likes "sweat cakes"?
...what an odd little man...
There's that Feisty Christmas Spirit.
Btw - speaking of Christmas .... and wondering what in the world is wrong with you .... what happened to you ....
It didn't have anything to with your Mom taking you to see Santa, and Santa telling your Mom to get this nasty thing off my lap and don't bring her back .... did it? ;O) (Whatever that means)
Just messin' with ya hon ..... Have a Happy New Year too!
We all have to work hard this year providing links to the moderates and undecideds so they can see the lies for themselves....If not they will swift boat the hell out of our President...They can't win on the truth because if they try they will only get 20% of the vote or less..
Like Billo the clown on Fox News claiming no one on that network ever said you would go to jail for not having insurance under the reform act....Then the turks showed alot more than one saying it and more including Oreilly himself...Its on you tube under young turks exposing fox health reform lies..
Awesome!
You'll hear more this year from a Super-PAC about how much someone sucks than you will from the candidates themselves about how good they are.
Did Weathervane Willard describe himself as consistent? That is the best laugh I had all day. You do have to wonder though why does lying come as natually to Republicans as breathing?
And why do people believe it ?
Seems Willard took Christine O'Donnell's words to heart: "he's been consistent since he changed his mind." That's got to be a classic.
Nice little tidbit that came across on Tuesday...
www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/article/2011/dec/20/lie-year-democrats-claims-republicans-voted-end-me/
This should make those lefties head spin around like Linda Blair in the Exorcist...
No the GOP bastards aren't technicaly going to end medi-care they are just ending it as we know it by giving you worthless vouchers that won't be enough if you have chronic or serious illness...But it will be fine for rich people and people with their own insurance...It will subsidize that and allow them to get their crows feet removed and hair implants and such but to hell with the people who will need it as a safety net...I have been paying in for almost thirty years and I will get stuck with a coupon but no it won't be gone just completly changed....................Did your head spin when it was awarded to the GOP the last two years ?
So you are then disputing the "bible" of political fact finders then?? Sounds like someone didn't have enough egg nog this holiday season... And nice defection...you posters on here have been criticizing Republicans over and over again with references from Politifact and now when Democrats are called out...it's blame the Republicans...
Here you go Joker----------------I blame the Dems for not fully explaining the problem with the bill since they only have thirty seconds to do so on tv it is hard...It is much easier to flat out lie with a prepared sound bite like the GOP...The dems are only giulty of explaining it too little...If you look at the facts medi-care as we know it will be gone for you if you are under 55
And that is exactly what they said if you read all about it not just one paragraph then start jumping up and down clapping...they were not telling the whole truth and slightly misleading so that is a lie...But not as bad as everything constantly on Fox and spewed by the GOP members of congress and the operatives and funders like Koch and Kock And Rovie..
JK1963, come to Canada for a while, you will soon be converted to government run medicare.
Wow, I'm sure glad that I turned 56 this year.
[Wow, I'm sure glad that I turned 56 this year.]
Well, Happy Birthday (belated) lisa!
"slightly misleading"?? Sorta like..."I'm sorta pregnant..." You are nuts!! Sure go ahead and asolve yourself of all blame...typical....
That would be absolve Jk and how am I to blame ? I didn't go on tv and say a damn thing..
No but you post here like Democrats are never to blame for anything when in reality they are to blame for many of the ills of this country but in this instance to my post you say they are guilty of "merely misleading" like that is ok.
And btw...it was a typo...
I thought it was a typo,I was nicely letting you know just in case you didn't...I make typos too and I also flat out do not know how to spell every word..
Thanks sw philly...we may disagree on here...but have a good belated Christmas!
Welcome to the world of Citizens United. How do you like it Mr. Gingrich?
My takeaway from these mailers is that Romney and his Super Pac are pathetic. Blame President Obama (Gingrich is his wish) for Romney's own failures to lead his party into liking him and wanting him as their nominee.
I just answered the second GOP poll in 15 minutes. One was the very same question/poll they have called about every day (except Sundays) for two weeks. One was the same guy named Tom who has called 3 times in 2 days to ask if I will support Newt Gingrich, press 1; someone else, press 2. Guess Tom doesn't like my answer so he keeps trying. January 3 can't come soon enough for this democrat who the GOP insists is one of them. Trouble is I can't even find a phone number to call to get my name off their darn list! Thank you Mr. Romney for putting me on that list to begin with.
They'd have gotten better results raking that $3M into a pile and torching it.
Well, Its one way to get the Republicans to help lift the country out of the recession - get them to spend their millions on attack ads! That ought to jump start the economy!
Pretty soon, corporations will be voting, and the law of the land, as legislated by the activist Supreme Court, will be "one dollar, one vote".
Disgusting.
In other words, they are ending Medicare, because they WANT Granny to die (*unless she's rich).
Try as he might, Mitt just isn't seeming to click with GOP voters.
Just saw two current polls that show Newt sizably ahead of Mitt - one by Gallup and one by the U of Iowa. The U of Iowa one has Paul in the lead, with Newt close behind, and Mitt a distant third. The Gallup poll has Newt eight points ahead of Mitt, with Paul way behind in third place.
I think this 24/7 "Mitt -a- thon" that we have been witnessing lately with Mitt turning up on just about every possible TV interview show out there has actually hurt him. Mitt does not wear well! He often comes across as petulant, condescending, Eddie Haskell-like in his insincerity, and grating with his forced hahahaha laugh whenever he gets a question that he doesn't like. I can see why his handlers had kept him from doing TV interviews since March 2010.
To see Newt STILL ahead of Mitt in these two current polls - after all of the pummeling he has been getting from Mitt's Super Pacs - is truly amazing. The only explanation is that people just cannot stomach Mitt, and prefer Newt, baggage and all.
That people vote based upon information contained within inflammatory and worthless material such as this is much more a condemnation of an intellectually lazy electorate than anything else.
A voter has the responsibility to choose wisely. To vote with their head and not their heart.
Why are millions of dollars spent on attack ads? Sadly, because they work.
Too much eggnog I see from the usuals. Merry Christmas Fiesty and Bev and all of you Kool-Aid drinking liberals. Should be an interesting upcoming year. Can't wait to see how this shakes out. :D
