Second Presidential Debate

Second Presidential Debate

Nice act Mr. President – go with righteous indignation when you can’t answer the question.  The fact is you didn’t provide the security the ambassador asked for.  And if you weren’t spending so much time in Las Vegas and on entertainment shows like The View etc., your eyes might have been open to seeing what was happening in Libya and other places in the region that might have given you reason to beef up security before it was even asked for.

Your Secretary of State was on the air the very next day using a video that very few people even knew about to give cover for why the attack on the embassy happened.  It only served to publicize the video and start riots by Muslim fanatics all over the world. 

Another disingenuous moment for President Obama was when he was saying that Governor Romney paid only 14% in income taxes.  Obama deals in perceptions.  He knows that very few people know that that 14% was being paid on income from investments.  Doug McKelway on Fox news this morning, the day after the debate, said exactly that.  He pointed out that monies invested that Romney already paid income tax on was invested and the income was taxed at 14%.  McKelway pointed out that Romney will pay tax a third time when inheritance tax is imposed on his estate at time of death.  I call it the confiscation of peoples’ property that cause many businesses to have to shut down.  The other shoe that falls is that many people wind up out of work collecting unemployment checks from the government and less money is in circulation to drive the economy.

And how about what Romney, Obama and Biden give to charity.  It was recently reported that Romney gave 19% of his income to charity in 2011.  He also gave the entire inheritance he got from his father to charity.  Biden gave $300 or .0013% and Obama gave one percent.  Aren’t we happy that the Socialists are in charge of our purse strings???
