Valin Posted September 19, 2012 Author Share Posted September 19, 2012 The Gangbang Continues.... Republican Candidates Signal Concern On Mitt Romney Video Comments Thomas Ferraro WASHINGTON, Sept 18 (Reuters) - Two Republican U.S. Senate candidates in close races disowned Mitt Romney's "47 percent" comments on Tuesday, signaling concern about the impact of his words on Republican fortunes beyond the presidential race. Democrats, sensing a new opportunity to influence congressional contests, were busy trying to link Republicans generally with Romney's remarks. The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee showered dozens of districts with news releases tying specific Republican candidates to Romney's "shocking comment." Linda McMahon, Republican Senate candidate in Connecticut, was worried enough to issue a statement criticizing Romney. "I disagree with Governor Romney's insinuation that 47 percent of Americans believe they are victims who must depend on the government for their care. I know that the vast majority of those who rely on government are not in that situation because they want to be," her statement said. (Snip) Massachusetts Senator Scott Brown, running a tight race against Harvard Law professor Elizabeth Warren to retain his seat in a traditionally Democratic state, sounded a similar theme. In statement to The Hill, a publication specializing in Congress, he said of Romney's views: "That's not the way I view the world. As someone who grew up in tough circumstances, I know that being on public assistance is not a spot that anyone wants to be in. Too many people today who want to work are being forced into public assistance for lack of jobs." (Snip) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valin Posted September 19, 2012 Author Share Posted September 19, 2012 For all you Poll junkies out there Pew: Jews Identifying Less With Democrats Jonathan S. Tobin 9/19/12 There’s been a lot of debate about just how much Jewish support Barack Obama is going to lose this year. But other than some truth-challenged blind partisans like Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, few have challenged the assertion that the president is likely to get fewer Jewish votes in November than he did in 2008. The only question his how much of a drop off can we expect? The Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life gave us another clue today when it released a graphic showing a marked decline in Jews identifying as Democrats over the past four years. In 2008, 72 percent of Jews identified themselves as Democrats or as leaning toward the party while only 20 percent were linked to the GOP. In 2012, those numbers have gone to 66 percent for the Democrats and 28 percent for the Republicans. If the presidential vote reflected party affiliation, that would mean the president is certain to lose significant ground from 2008, when his share of the Jewish group has been estimated to be from 74-78 percent (Democrats claimed 78 percent four years ago but now say the number was smaller)–though not as big a drop as some surveys have seemed to indicate. Nevertheless, this is important since it is likely that many voters, especially Jews who have historic ties to the party, might be willing to vote against President Obama while still calling themselves Democrats. But no matter how you slice it, this seems to set Democrats up for their worst showing among Jews since 1988. There are a couple of interesting points to be gleaned from the Pew survey.

Valin Posted September 19, 2012 Author Share Posted September 19, 2012 Mark Levin calls out Bill Kristol and others for trash-mouthing Romney, says giving aid and comfort to Obama Mark Levin says that constructive criticism is a good thing and that every time he criticizes Romney he tries to make it constructive, to point Romney back toward conservatism. But lately, hes says, there have been a few conservatives that are trash-mouthing Romney and in doing so they have become part of the problem. He specifically mentions Bill Kristol, John Podhoretz, Peggy Noonan, and Ed Rollins, and says if they aren’t trying to help Romney win, they are giving aid and comfort to Obama.

Valin Posted September 19, 2012 Author Share Posted September 19, 2012 Beyoncé & Jay-Z host NY Bam ba$h Jay-Z & Beyoncé ready tower of bubbly GEOFF EARLE, Bureau Chief September 19, 2012 President Obama greeting Jay-Z and Beyonce during a campaign fundraiser in New York Tuesday. WASHINGTON — Nix the flags and the podium. Cue the opulent 18-foot tower of gold-bottled French champagne. When President Obama addresses an elite roster of hipsters and multimillionaires, including hosts Beyoncé and Jay-Z, in New York tonight, he will do so next to a custom-designed tower of $800-per-bottle champagne that dominates the main room at Jay-Z’s 40/40 nightclub. The 350-bottle champagne tower — designed by Jeffrey Beers — is a monument to Jay-Z’s favorite bubbly, Armand de Brignac, which is known colloquially by rappers, clubgoers and connoisseurs as Ace of Spades because of its gold-spade label.

Draggingtree Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 The Blamer in Chief By Michael Reagan · September 20, 2012 Barack Obama has become America's blamer in chief. He and his administration spent last weekend blaming the explosion of violence against America in the Middle East on a moronic anti-Muhammad video that's been on YouTube for months. His United Nations Ambassador Susan Rice made the rounds of the Sunday morning news shows, where she made an absolute idiot of herself. Apparently auditioning for the secretary of state job in -- God forbid -- a second Obama administration, Rice insisted that the "spontaneous" Islamic rage that killed our ambassador in Libya and three other Americans was caused not by the failures of her boss but by an amateur movie made by some nut in California. This tragic episode once again proves that the incompetence of this president read more http://patriotpost.us/opinion/14815 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Draggingtree Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Obama's Dangerous and Disastrous Presidency By Quin Hillyer on 9.19.12 @ 6:09AM Name a single thing that has improved under his rule. How can any cogent American citizen possibly even consider voting for Barack Obama now? That's what lots of conservatives and moderates are asking each other, again and again. It's completely baffling, to those who grew up with any sort of sense of what America means and what the American character traditionally has been, that anybody can look at the man's record and want more of the same. Almost the entirety of the Muslim world is now rioting against an American president who promised that his olive branches to Muslims would secure peace. Like Jimmy Carter, Obama has only shown a weakness that has emboldened the Islamist haters. Meanwhile, our closest ally in the region, Israel, a stable representative democracy led by an American-educated, America-loving prime minister, has repeatedly been insulted, abandoned, and undermined. In short, the United States is in worse position with all sides in the Middle East/northern Africa. We are embarrassed, feckless, wounded... and in four tragic cases, dead.
