OSKALOOSA, IA – President Obama seemed to reference the infamous tale of the Romney family dog riding on the roof of the presumptive GOP nominee's car for most of a road trip during an extended riff here on wind energy.
Criticizing Mitt Romney’s opposition to wind energy production tax credits, Obama also went personal, bringing up an anecdote about a Romney family vacation.
Obama mocked what he said was Romney’s wind energy policy, quoting him from a March 6 speech in Zanesville, Ohio when he said, “you can’t drive a car with a windmill on it.”
“That’s what he said about wind power,” Obama told about 850 supporters standing outside a classic, American flag-bedecked farmhouse at the Nelson Pioneer Farm Museum here.
“Now, I don’t know if he’s actually tried that. I know he’s had other things on his car,” Obama said as the crowd applauded, understanding the reference.
Liberal critics and Democratic groups supporting the president have pounced on the Seamus story to criticize Romney's character, suggesting Romney is insensitive, but this is the first time the president himself has referenced it himself. (Obama aides have previously invoked the story.)
But after the quick Seamus allusion, the president went right back to accusing Romney of not understanding the importance of wind energy in Iowa.
“If he wants to learn something about wind, all he’s got to do is pay attention to what you’ve been doing here in Iowa,” the president said, noting that the wind industry now supports 7,000 jobs in Iowa.
And new statistics from a Department of Energy report on wind power, which the president referred to Tuesday, also reflect the importance of wind as a policy and political issue: it’s one of the top two states when it comes to in-state wind energy generation, generating 18.8 percent in 2011, second only to South Dakota.
“If [Romney] knew what you’ve been doing, he’d know that 20 percent of Iowa’s electricity now runs on wind,” Obama said to applause. “Powering our homes and our factories, and our businesses in a way that is clean and renewable.”
In a statement the Romney campaign said Obama's Seamus reference showed that the president "will do anything to distract from his abysmal record."
"After sanctimoniously complaining about making a 'big election about small things,' President Obama continues to embarrass himself and diminish his office with un-presidential behavior," campaign spokesman Ryan Williams said in a statement.
After a series of local interviews here, the president heads to campaign events in Marshalltown and Waterloo, continuing to wind his way east through the state.

I think the Seamus story is VERY pertinent to Romney's character! How insensitive to the dog AND his own children!
Way to go, Mr President!
NEWS HEADLINE: OBAMA REGISTERED AS FOREIGN EXCHANGE STUDENT!!!
Wouldn't that be a hoot to read!?!
You libbys crack me up. Obama, the dog eater!!
Obama eats dogs! How cruel is that?
LMFAO
Maybe Obama should try and be president rather than an entertainer. What a sham of a presidency.
Hey Obama, care to discuss reality yet? Dogs on roof while he eats them. What f*&king idiot
As long as it's truthful,...EVERYTHING in Romney's 'war' chest is fair game. And if his wife wants to inject herself into the fray,...then her BS is also fair game.
Now that Romney is using his children as surrogates (much like Palin, eh?) - then guess what? They are fair game, too. The Republicans have not proven very nimble with an opponent that fights back. They are used to being the bully and putting Dems on the defensive. And historically Dems have 'taken the high road'. Well guess what?
THAT DOG DON'T HUNT! (Literally and metaphorically). We are a new brand of Dems who won't just let them get away with their lies and feckless behavior.
And I am PROUD to stand with my fellow LIBS and not back down from this fight. It's one that is worth the battle!
PS. I hope people are really looking into the Paul Ryan debacle. For a bunch of women haters,...they sure seem to marry well, eh?
Ryan is a millionaire on Democratic money. That must make him feel like the slime he is, eh?
Hey GF!
Are you talking about Princess Annie who enjoys DOPING lame horses so she can dump them for a profit?
Talk about a compassionate (fill in the blank) — — — T!
compared to Obama who just likes DOPE.
Obama, first incumbent to run away from his record rather than on it. Keep talking about nonsense issues.
You libbys crack me up.
How about talking about some real issues? LMAO Oops, I guess you wouldn't want to do that, would you. Only bad news for libbys there.
LOL
If Romney's not going to talk about MA, the Olympics, Bain, or his taxes, that pretty much leaves us with his non-existant plan and his critters. Everything's fair game . . . .
Tell that to many U.S Troops stationed in South Korea, who have eaten dog while on their tour.
BJ1, so is it more cruel to kill and eat them, or let them have their face in the wind?
Dogs LOVE to have the wind in their face. Just look at how they stick their heads out the window when you drive down the street.
So killing and eating them versus letting them have fun. Hmm. LMAO
The President did not kill a dog. In different countries they have different customs.
Job1 is competing with Feisty for the most idiotic post. I doubt Feisty will so easily relinquish the crown, but rest assured Job1 is the heir to the throne.
No Job, he just ate one
Hey Job1, care to discuss the unemployment? I know Clara and Feisty and Layton want to discuss dogs. Obama's real issue.
Apparently Seamus didn't, since he was so terrified he sh!t himself so bad it ran down the side of the car...
A responsible, pet owner would of then brought him inside at that point after cleaning him up!
Wait!
Did I infer Republicans are somehow responsible? lol
Well isn't this special. Both Obama and his idiotic VP Joey Biden talking about what matters most, dogs on roofs, and putting people "back in chains". So that's the plan for this "dynamic duo", talk about the stupid and use race baiting charged rhetoric as their message.
Obama/Biden - "Dignity? Us? Not a chance!"
Cheezer,
Isn't this thread about a dog? on a roof?
Have you ever baptized the dead?
Romney said, "Yes, I have but not recently."
What matters most.
Wonder what is in Ryan's tax returns?
Obama/Biden Sedition 2012
Speaking of DOPED up horses... Snuffy has arrived!
The next one will be about tax returns, the next about how many homes someone has, the next about the GOP pushing grandma off a cliff, the next about how Romney killed a cancer victim, a subject about horses, an article about what Romney's wife is wearing, then it will all repeat.
Jobs? Economy? Not to be spoken about. Marching orders from the Obama campaign.
not sure about you guys, but if I sat down at our dinner table and there was food on the plate I never, not once in my childhood questioned what I tried, if I did not like it and there was other food, then I was not made to eat it, however, I had to try it first though, and if that was all we had to eat that day (I'm not particularly fond of deer meet) I ate it or went hungry. As an adult I eat whatever I want that I can afford, and I have never, ever tied an animal to anything with an engine - as an adult or as a child.
Talk about a compassionate (fill in the blank) — — — T!

He can lose the VP and his House seat Nov. 6.

Obama 2012
hey 'snuffy' looks like your dog whistle works, here comes the attack pug now
Ever blew yourself up to get virgins? Ever starve yourself while cattle roam the streets?
Different religions have different beliefs. I guess to not be made fun of you have to be ok with sodomy and the killing of babies. That's all you libs care about. That and having other people support you sick life style.
Sniffles,
Jobs are being created.
Stock market looking good.
economic recovery on a steady path.
Please inform me what Mitt is going to do to make things better.
So far his only idea is to get elected!
The middle class has lost 38% of its wealth under Obama, record long term unemployment, record number on food stamps-in the ranks of the poor, record number of families dependent on government assistance ... and Obama is talking about a dog in a crate on a vacation trip 30 years ago?
Gosh ... no wonder the economy is so screwed.
And btw - Doesn't ASPCA, animal control, zoos and lib animal lovers everywhere transport dogs, cats, horses, cattle, lions, tigers, rhinos in crates and cages and trailers ....
Willful stupidity is reaching epidemic levels in the liberal world.
Wind Power now represents 4% of the USA's needs, and growing.
Republicans are a strange strange bunch. They have no clue what they're talking about. And the funny thing is, they know it.
Glad to see some grown ups in their party who will actually - you know - tell the GD truth:
Think Progress: David Stockman calls Ryan Budget Empty Fairy Tale
The Ryan Plan boils down to a fetish for cutting the top marginal income-tax rate for “job creators” — i.e. the superwealthy — to 25 percent and paying for it with an as-yet-undisclosed plan to broaden the tax base. Of the $1 trillion in so-called tax expenditures that the plan would attack, the vast majority would come from slashing popular tax breaks for employer-provided health insurance, mortgage interest, 401(k) accounts, state and local taxes, charitable giving and the like, not to mention low rates on capital gains and dividends.
…In short, Mr. Ryan’s plan is devoid of credible math or hard policy choices. And it couldn’t pass even if Republicans were to take the presidency and both houses of Congress. Mr. Romney and Mr. Ryan have no plan to take on Wall Street, the Fed, the military-industrial complex, social insurance or the nation’s fiscal calamity and no plan to revive capitalist prosperity — just empty sermons.
_________
Meanwhile, Mitt Romney described the Medicare cuts included in Paul Ryan’s budget as “extraordinary,” during his visit to a mining operation in Beallsville, Ohio on Tuesday.
__________
Romney and Ryan. This is the best the GOP could come up with, with all their money and media outlets?
Romney and Ryan. Two of the biggest idiots we have ever seen, in a party bursting at the seams with idiots.
Glad to see some people are paying attention to these morons.
You gotta admit, the lefties have a sense of humor, and an uncanny ability to remain blind in the eyes of the truth. Jobs are being created and the stock market is doing well, for global companies that have taken their jobs and profits elsewhere (see Apple and GE for details). And the US GDP rate is going down while unemployment goes up. Lets see Obama take the credit for that "steady path".
Obama 2012 - "$6 trillion in new debt? I built that!"
OK, one more time! What is Romney going to do to make things better? Please tell us, because Romney sure as hell wont or can't
what path would that be? Liberals remind me an ACME cartoon. anvils and rocket powered skates, epic failure is the result.
Obama/Biden 2012 "Blank you America"
And right wingers remind me of Richard Nixon Stating "I am not a crook"
How's that grab ya Cheezer?
Bob-
That has to be one of the weakest excuses I have ever seen! Horse/animal trailers have shelter from the wind and rain, and cages are put in boxcars or enclosed trailers.
Republicans can claim all they want it is a non-issue, but seriously - do you know ANYONE who would put their family pet in a cage and strap it to the roof of the car? Anyone?
Romney could obviously afford to rent a bigger car, van or SUV - or pay for a kennel. Animal Cruelty topped with a big scoop of Cheap.
I love how the far righters on this site pooh pooh the tax returns for Mitt Romney. You know they would be raising holy hell if Obama hadn't released his. Hypocrites - all of them!

no one cared about Obamas taxes seeking. he was a 1%er before his election.

Too funny!

You can set your watch by their typical propaganda!

That has to be some kind of record! lol
what if you eat the evidence Feisty Castro? thats ok in your book.
You get OWNED everyday, everytime you open your trap.
Feisty and First Read = EPIC FAIL
It would appear Feisty's bipolar kicked in. its punking itself now. LOL @ U
BINGO! We have a winner,...see posts 1.1 and 1.2
You can practically set a watch to it,...
BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
I doubt it bootlicker. you guys thought the Ryan VP annoucement was in the middle of the night. go back to talking about dogs moron.
I'm telling ya, Clara...
It's getting so easy, you can bitch slap them blindfolded! ;o)
Feisty, nice clown nose, fitting from Bozo. I miss that show, you did good for them years
... yeabut... yeabut...
FR there is no justification for putting a pet on the roof. What is next?
Obama '12
Looks like Obama's good friend and the leader of the "Chicago Way" Davey Axelrod is working overtime. I guess he figures there are enough dopes out there that will buy this nonsense and that it will win a few votes. From the responses of the Lefties on this thread, he's probably correct.
Obama/Biden 2012 - "Winners in the lifetime achievement award for being idiots"
Willard has shown a pattern of insensitivity & bullying!
Lucky for Seamus, Willard didn't decide to hold him down & give him a hair cut! ;o)
lucky for Seamus Obama wasnt around.
Speaking of bullies...
Hey Feisty Castro, any idea when Obama is going to focus on the economy, you know lasers and all.
now now Joanna - that award went to bush & cheney, we all know that, and as greedy as they are and as hungry as they are for any kind of recognition at all, it is doubtful they will ever give that award back to anyone else.. Besides, no one is ever going to be quite a dumb as that pair.
Poor thing. I guess Dumbfux is trying to show off her sensitive (very wide) side. Cry us a river Dumbfux.
JAS1-
You Conservatives claim to love facts, so let's take a look at the FACTS presented in this article.
1) Romney mocks Wind Power by saying “you can’t drive a car with a windmill on it.”
2) President Obama, in the middle of a speech supporting Wind Power, mentions Romney's mocking comment and makes a minor joke about the "dog on the roof" incident.
3) President Obama then continues to make his case for the job-creating and environmental benefits of tax credits for wind power and other forms of alternative energy.
Which part of this is "nonsense", and who exactly are the "dopes"?
Paul Ryan: The Deficit? I Built That!
Sorry... sweetheart!
That job is reserved for Otis the Drunk who is the Speaker of the House!
YIPPEEE!
Snuffy called me Dumbfux... come one Snuffy... do it again!
Pretty... pretty... please???
PS: Someone who wears a size 15 EEE shouldn't be bringing up wide! ;o)
Obama in this speech was talking about Wind for energy.
Romney does not see any value in that form of energy.
Hell, Caesar - Obama has focused on the economy, with positive results.
People seem to forget how bad things were: massive job losses, plummeting home values, stock market crashing, negative GDP, and unemployment over 10%. All of these things were caused at least in part by the reckless tax cuts, spending, and deregulation of the Bush administration that Romney/Ryan advocate a return to.
Now we have the stock market doubling in value, positive GDP, slow but steady job increases, and unemployment around 8%. Disappointing, maybe, but we are still much better off than we were - especially in comparison to the rest of the world, which is still struggling mightily.
A few key facts:
Unemployment: 10.1% in October 2009, the highest rate since 1983 and roughly twice the pre-crisis rate. Since then, steadily reduced to around 8.3%
Stock Market: Dow Jones was at 6,600 in March 2009. It has since recovered - over 12,000 during most of 2011, over 13,000 in 2012.
GDP: GDP growth of 2.2% in Jan. 2008 rapidly declined to a negative growth rate of -5% in 2009. Growth rates have been positive since then to a high of 3.5% before settling to a rate of around 2% growth per quarter.
Home Values: US Home Values declined by almost 25% from Jan. 2007 thru Feb. 2012. The rate of decline slowed and homes values have increased for the last 4 months, with June reporting the first year-over-year increase since 2007.
Paul Ryan: The Deficit? I Built That!
Willard thanks wind energy is a fart.
And you are about as funny as a fart in an elevator. Obama's energy policy is simple ... more government restriction and control to NOT develop and harvest our energy resources.
Bumper sticker on Romney's limo:
MY OTHER CAR IS A DANCING HORSE
Now THAT is funny!! :)
Bumper Sticker on Paul Ryan's limo:
THE DEFICIT: I BUILT THAT!
"Since Romney doesn’t care about poor people, he needed to balance the ticket with someone who doesn’t care about old people." -Andy Borowitz
I think Romney would have been better served by appointing his "dancing horse" as his running mate. People tend to like horses and his "therapy horse" is, after all, a tax deduction. On the other hand, the American people intensely dislike cynical horses' asses like Ryan.
More deep thinking comments from liberals .... LET THE CIRCLE JERK BEGIN !
Little Jim-Jim!
You have a bizarre fascination with circle jerks & ass-holes...
Too many years serving as the pivot boy... possibly? lol
Here's a tissue, wipe your chin...
Jim does appear to have an unwholesome fixation on certain behaviors, doesn't he? I mean, I support his right to define his lifestyle, no matter how unpleasant it may seem to normal people, but exposing his unusual tastes on this site is rather unseemly, in my opinion.
You're killing me Sailcat!
LMAO!
Perhaps Jim wants to be a BB with Willard and Little Eddie.
So sad that Republicans continue to promote oil as the best approach for the US.
The Republican position makes enemies like Venezuela, Russia, and Iran stronger.
We need to expand on the Democrat philosophy of supporting our local businesses and local energy production? Democrats also protects our military families from wars over Middle East oil.
By increasing our renewable energy in the US, we are able to export more US natural gas. Again, growing American businesses that create more jobs for Americans. It's the Democratic way.
Your common sense approach to what would be good for America is lost on the republican supporters Debbie.
The republicans are focused on oil, their bank accounts and taking as much from the working class American as possible while giving as little if anything in return.
But it's ok for a Chinese company to develop Canada's oil sands? Never mind jobs for US workers, but shouldn't the Keystone Pipeline be pursued for national security?
"Romulian Romney" has put a huge wind mill on his Romulian Bird Of Prey. The GOP/RNC "Speculator and Chief" has just found out that the wind mill does not work in outer space. Economically "Romulian Romney" would like to strap the Middle Class, the Working Poor, the elderly, and the disabled to the roof. ""Richie Rich" Ryan likes to ride shotgun, and he likes to strap Medicare to the bumper. "Richie Rich" Ryan wants to put the rights of women on the roof as well. The "Two Romulian's" are so "Alien" to what America needs economically. That would be JOBS GOP/RNC!
Idiots!
You all forgot the speech was about touting Obama's policy on green renewal wind energy and HOW IT'S CREATED JOBS for Iowans, and reduced our dependency on foreign oil.
And that's a record Obama should be proud to run on, and he should expose Romney and Ryan for the big oil/dirty coal whores they are and their unreasonable opposition to the promotion of clean renewable energy.
President Obama's vision of the middle-class' future extends as far as the range of a windmill powered car.
Is that why Romney and Ryan propose massive tax cuts for those at the top financed by those of us in the middle? Then they rag on Obama about the deficit?
and the Republican party has no vision for the future.
ZOMBIES FOR ROMNEY/RYAN 2012 !!!!
President Obama's change includes defunding Social Security and extending Medicare solvency to 2024.
Odumbass, has a new cook book out how to prepare dog's to eat.
Romney/Ryan have a new book out, "How to Hang the Middle Class Out to Dry"
Paul Ryan: The Deficit? I Built That!
Obama already wrote that book.

http://www.copyblogger.com/5-common-mistakes-that-make-you-look-dumb/
Obama/Biden 2012
Talk about idiots. Remember you people were the ones that voted for Palin in 2008.
So, Obama is talking about Romney for leaving his dog, in a kennel carrier, on the roof of his car.
What about Obama leaving his own brother in a hut in Africa?
One would think that neglecting one's own blood was worse than putting a dog in a carrier and strapping onto the roof of your car.
You would be checking on it when you stopped and make sure it had water and even if it was the worst thing for the dog, when you stopped you took him out and fed and watered him again while providing for all his other needs.
However, if you knew your brother lived in a small hut and did not have enough food and care, and if the same guy wouldn't help his own aunt with medical expenses, even though his a millionaire?
ANd you want to talk dog in carrier?
You can't really believe you have a point here. Where do you come from?
I know and talk to several democrats and they are not as openly ignorant as most of these post authors.
It is pretty damn funny though. I think some of them actually believe they're making a contribution. To what?...I have no idea.
Not to mention Obama's Aunt Zenuiti and Uncle Omar, illegal aliens mooching off taxpayers for 20 years, and the compassionate Barack not sending them a dime.
Look, i think we can all recognize the dog had the chance to be a greater contributor to society than any of Obama's family, so maybe these libs have a point.
Perhaps the brother, if he really exists, wants to live in a hut in Africa. What proof is there that he exists or that Obama's relatives lived on welfare or any other government program? States are supposed to check things out before just handing over welfare to just anybody. If the state they were in failed to catch them that's too bad. Who was in charge at the time?
Ugh. Mr. Obama does indeed have a half-brother in Kenya. Googling Obama half brother renders many results. here is one of many articles:
I guess if you needed to see "proof" you could go see the movie discussed in the article. There is also a wikipedia.org article on Mr. Obama's family.
Mr. Obama also has a step sister (she is Indonesian)
There have also been reports about Mr. Obama's aunt and uncle. At one time she was living in subsidized housing. He got in the news with a DUI or related driving violation. Mr. Obama's aunt did live on state assistance for a number of years, but has stayed out of the news since Mr. Obama's election. The aunt and the uncle are not US citizens, although the aunt did receive a green card after Mr. Obama was elected to office - and at some point was living in the US illegally prior to getting the green card.
As for how she got on the welfare rolls, etc. do the research yourself.
Personally, I don;t care about the man's relatives, but it is very telling that he has not made any attempt to assist his brother. However, I did read that the Obama's did try to do some charity outreach to help the Kenyan village where his grandfather was from --
I don;t care for the snarky comments about Mr. Obama's family, frankly, but in general the overall snarkiness (and occasionally obscene) of these boards really does not put anyone in a positive light.
Less anger overall would be a good thing.
A political campaign for the Presidency , falsely accusing an opponent of dog abuse twenty years ago, is a character-illuminating issue, alright...
...the moronic lying buffoons who dwell on the late beloved Romney dog Seamus clearly have no character.
Sorry, Bob---Romney himself first brought that story up--although why he did is beyond me.
Thought of you on Sat. when your governor had to introduce Ryan. I think in the long run you'll be glad he is spared the defeat this year.
Isn't it funny how Romney brings stuff up that can be used against him? Why would someone do that unless they are totally incompentent as a politician? I would have expected such things from Dubya but not Romney. Oh well, that's the way the cookie crumbles.
Obama/Biden in a landslide 2012
I was reading an article which showed that in every election Mr. Obama has "won" by means of character assassination and getting access to sealed divorce records - granted the access was often illegal.
If the American people have any sense, they will use wisdom when they vote.
The Dems now are very frustrated. They worse they can dig up on Mr. Romney is that he does not womanize, smoke, or drink; he earned his money cleaning up bankrupt companies and rehabilitating them or by building up start ups or troubled companies. (Burger King? Staples? Ever heard of them?) They tried to get him on his money, but John Kerry is 3 X wealthier than Romney. Nancy Pelosi and many other Dem "luminaries" are also quite wealthy.
So Obama can't dig up dirt: there's no dirt to dig. Romney has also learned to stay focused and that the media will not treat him fairly at all.
Senator Harry Reid gets anonymous phone calls about Romney's taxes -- like Joe McCarthy used to get anonymous phone calls about Communists... But we haven't seen Harry's tax returns ever. the Tax Return thing is just a dodge to try to find something to pick on Romney about. Meanwhile, Mr. Obama's personal records from college, etc. are sealed.
"And then there's Congressman Paul Ryan. On the plus side, he has piercing blue bedroom eyes. On the minus side, he's a heartless smirking bastard, and the only people who can stand him are heartless smirking bastards. And Mitt, you already have that vote locked up." –Bill Maher
Bill Maher is going to be the new poster boy for Preparation H !
Yep !! Seems like they have a lot in common ..... Preparation H is known to soothe a flaming a$$hole, while Bill Maher is a flaming a$$hole ..... but poor Bill uses it to slick back his hair !
Preparation H for Bill ... SUPERSIZE IT so he will have enough for his entire body !
How many of you Libs actually pay taxes.
And where did you libs come up with middleclass paying for others tax cuts, are you really that naive to believe that? What are your facts to back it other than the two morons Obuma and co. telling you that
Every time a wealthy baron takes a DEDUCTION for hobby horses,...(you know, US subsidizing THEIR lifestyle)
Well, we've paid for that missing tax revenue - one way or another.
It's so funny that anyone that disagrees with the right wing, according to them, doesn't have a job, or is on welfare. That means that those 68,000,000 voters that voted for Obama don't have jobs and are on welfare.
I wonder how that explains that in my city, Obama polls at 64%, favorable, and the unemployment rate is 6.1 percent?
Again we never accused the right wing of being the smart ones. These Neo-Nut Right Wing Drones Conservatives going on with their crazy Rush talk, just crawl out of the wood work from time to time.
Most likely many of these Neo-Nut Right Wing Drones Conservatives need jobs and are on welfare.
Actually Job 1, something like 49-51% of americans are getting $ from the govt, so it may be a tad bit higher than your number. Have no idea what city you are in but Jimmy Carter was winning in the polls until it came time to vote. And are these the same polls that two yrs ago predicted a landslide for the libs. And your comment -
Most likely many of these Neo-Nut Right Wing Drones Conservatives need jobs and are on welfare.
is an oxymoron. And thanks for assuming I thought libs don't have a job, I just asked who actually pays taxes...but glad you think that. Tells us you dont.
And Clara
Well Klara, seeing as they pay someone to store the horse, feed the horse, groom the horse, train the horse, etc etc. I guess they still CREATE jobs, and last time i checked that helps pay someones bills, you need economics 101 before you spout off your ignorance. What do you think the rich do with their money swim in it? No the spend and invest, which creates more demand for jobs which in turn creates more tax revenue.
does make you query the legal status of the stable boy,...oops! He can't have illegals, he's running for president for pete's sake.
who said that? I'll wait.
PS. It's my understanding that this particular baron stores it in offshore accounts,...I can hear the Stars and Stripes playing in the back ground now!
Last time I checked Obuma was granting amnesty to illegals. Its my understanding that Barney "fag" frank, Debbie "snagletooth" schultz . The Clintons, and many many other dems have offshore accts as well. So Clara, quit biting hand that feeds you before the wealthy move offshore therefore cutting funding to your monthly stipend from the govt.
Kaygogie, is a lovely dish served with fresh vegetables, and rice! So what's the problem? Oboma wasn't even born here according to the Rag Mags, and Hawaii's State Government Officials have forged the documents that Oboma presented in his defense to the American Public (lucky for him that was not in a court of law, the documents would have been proven to be forgeries)! But, all's fare in love, war, politics, and Certificates of Live Birth, is it not?
You guys are in trouble if all you got is that tired played out birth certificate crap.
As opposed to the tax crap you chant.
Right, but President Obama provided a birth certificate,...no way in hell Romney ponies up those tax returns,...
Don't take it from me, take it from George Will - you know the Conservative pundit and writer?
Three yrs and 2 million dollars later huh....how bout them college applications or all of his school records. Then we can ask for tax returns
President Obama says about Romney,
And I say that with President Obama talking in Iowa, we can add another 70% of wind/bull S t that comes out of his mouth. Why does not he talk about the conservationists that are talking about all the birds that get killed.
If this guy was Pinochio, his nose would make enough paper to wipe the sssss of all the liberals.
Ohh I cannot wait until day after election to hear all of the conspiracy theories and racist rants of the left trying to figure out why the majority does not see their point of view.
Romney on day 1, sleeping because he is so tried. On day 2 Ann tells him to go back to bed because he lost.
Better yet Obama start packing now, it's over bum!
Are your righties delusional or in your usual state of denial? Presidemt Obama is crushing it in the electoral college vote. Bad mouth him all you want, but he will win in november, the majority of Americans want nothing to do with republican policies and definately not if Mitten is in charge.
Yes jeff bc elections are won in aug. Again Jimmy carter was farther ahead than obuma at this point....howd that turn out?
20% of the states power, that sounds good, why wouldn't Romney support that. Sounds like we need it in every state.
Distraction and digression are key elements of the Obama campaign. Wind is nice but must be converted to another form of energy to power industry and must be at a more constant level to justify teh investment. So wind in Iowa may work well -- but it may not work very well in 2012 for Lima, Ohio for example.
The USA has oil and gas resources; shale deposits in Canada, etc. that Mr. Obama won;t let be exploited. that was the point Romney was making. In 2030 wind may be much more viable. However it is killing off lots and lots of birds in California - many of whom were once protected species. How many eagles die in windmills? How many is too many?
The dog on the roof of Willard's car points to BAD JUDGMENT! One more thing about Romoney I don't like. They just keep adding up.
BTW Willard - show us those tax returns. Failure to do so only shows somethings rotten in them! His moral compass must be broken.
same applies for obamas college records
What exactly would Obama's college records tell you? What classes he took?
Tax returns will show if Willard pays his fair share in US taxes and what countries he hides his money in. He even wanted more years of tax records from Ryan than he's willing to give. Obviously Willard has some sort of tax problem.
First they would tell you if he tried to use his status as an immigrant to get scholarships, or maybe that he recieved foreign aid. If there is nothing to hide why does he hide it. Every other president released them..isnt that your argument?
You sir, are not playing with a full deck.
Yes, "if there's nothing to hide why does he hide it" - applies to Romoney's tax returns.
SAD - our Country has all these problems, and he wants to talk about a dog on top of a car - - - - Guess someone from PETA said they may not vote for him.
Right, nothing in the speach about wind power. Romney left his dog on the top of the car, thank you good night.
woof woof - now shoo away
Obama is a dog of a politician, with unemployment at 15% this bum gives a amnesty program to 3.2 million illegal criminals, costing 585,000million to implement,giving soc. sec. cards, and excess to all government programs. just another reason not to vote for this left wing socialist.
The Food Stamp president view of America bankrupt,inflation, illegals running rampant, and new socialist country.
Dogs LOVE to have the wind in their face. Just look at how they stick their heads out the window when you drive down the street.
is that the same wind which romney says is no good to harvest clean energy. Got to protect those koch brothers interest ole buddy Romney and all the obstructi-CONS.
Romney told the7000 folks in Iowa who are employed by wind mill industry they don't count in this election.This clown keeps giving.LMAO Romney -vs- Romney hahahahahahaha! Maybe he could learn something about wind energy if he could understand there is other wind than the only wind he knows about is when Grover Norquist stops and Romney rams his nose up his AZZ.
Obama's America= 0, nothing but BS.
