To Would Be Terrorists (the Navy Seal Of Approval) Yet Again

Just before our President gave his State of the Union Address we found that a bunch of Somali pirates holding hostages, one American and one from Denmark, once again were treated to the Obama terrorist/dictator retirement plan. That’s ‘cause our head of state gets them shot in the head. Like the first Somali pirates who commandeered that ship, like Bin Laden, like Mr. Gadhafi, like the other 21 members of Al Quaeda since Mr. Obama became President, and probably an Iranian scientist or two, or five. They have basically been dealt with in the same manner. The manner in which they deserve. But I think these people, whether it’s the Iranians advertising for other scientists or the surmise of future pirates could kind of take this lemon and make it lemonade and say as follows: “We pay you more now because when this guy in the White House talks about people retiring, he obviously doesnt mean you. So there's no need for a 401K.”!!!!!

BAIN WAS THE BANE OF MY EXISTENCE

From the Diary of Mitt Romney
Bain was the bane of my existence, and now as I’ve dealt with that suddenly they’re all up in arms over my tax returns. I’m going to give them one full year, not a partial year, a full year, which is within 11 of what my Dad gave. He was wrong…you don’t give people information – they won’t think the worst. I don’t know if I’m rich? They tell me I made over $40 mill in 2010. Is that technically rich? I paid almost 15% taxes and the great news is under the plans of Newt Gingrich in which there’d be zero capital gains, I’d pay no taxes. Should I vote for Newt??

I love this old Beatle’s stuff. See how cool I am.

Mitt fades off in the background – drifts asleep
Let me tell how it will be
More for you, 15 for me
It’s my tax scam, ya ya it’s my tax scam
Should 15 appear to small
Be thankful that I pay at all
Cause it’s my tax scam ya-ya, it’s my tax scam

Romney & Gingrich: The Draft Dodgers That Want to Send Your Kids to War

When it came time for Mitt Romney and Newt Gingrich to serve in the armed forces during the Vietnam War in the 1960s, both Presidential candidate weaseled out of their duty to “serve their country”. Now they espouse hawkish rhetoric, vehemently back the occupation of Afghanistan, think it was a mistake to pull combat troops out of Iraq (a result of a Bush-era agreement with Iraq),and more recently have touted the need to invade Iran. Just as it’s easy to spend money that isn’t yours, it’s just as easy to send kids to war that aren’t your own.
That’s the crux of what Mitt Romney and Gingrich have advocated and what they intend to do if either of them are elected to the highest office in the nation.
Living in a palace in France during a mission for the Mormon church, Mitt Romney didn’t get to witness the horrors of the Vietnam War, where over fifty-thousand Americans died. Romney received a deferment in order to further spread his religion in France for two and a half years. While American troops were fighting the Viet Cong in jungles deep inside of Vietnam, Mitt Romney was quoting verses of the Book of Mormon and improving his French. The Parisian mansion Mitt Romney was living in also had a chef and a houseboy.
According to the Deseret News, in 1966, before Romney headed off to France
under a church obtained draft deferral, he was a part of a counter-protest at Stanford University against a group that was staging a sit-in in opposition to draft status tests. It seems like Romney’s flipflopping career began even before his political career did.
Gingrich, on the other hand, received one of his many deferments on the basis of starting a new family with his wife and kids. These are the same kids and cancer stricken wife, who he left just a few years later. While he wholeheartedly believed in sending young Americans to their graves in Vietnam, he cowered away from military service stating in 1985 to the Wall Street Journal,
“Part of the question I had to ask myself was what difference I would have made.”
Newt believed that one individual, particularly himself, going to Vietnam wouldn’t have made a difference. Robert Scheer over at the LA Times put it eloquently,
The media have basically accepted him on his own terms as a righteous champion of family values determined to do battle with the “counterculture” and big government in Washington. Yet here is a professional politician who walked out on his own family with two young children at a time when his wife had cancer. Those kids were the basis of this super-patriot’s draft deferment during the
Vietnam War.
Now, there’s something to be said about military service: It isn’t for everyone and there are many, many legitimate reasons for not joining the Army. The issue with Mitt Romney and Newt Gingrich is one of hypocrisy; the notion that they did everything they could to escape the draft into a war while at the same time verbally backing that war and now backing more interventionist wars abroad.They don’t seem to have a problem with bloodshed so long as it isn’t their own blood.
This isn’t only true of Romney and Gingrich; it’s true of most neoconservative warhawks like Bill Kristol and Richard Perle whose jingoist rhetoric has resulted in thousands of dead American soldiers and thousands of families missing a son, daughter, father, or mother. The one other frontrunner in the Republican race for President definitely deserves a mention. That’s Ron Paul–the doctor that served in the US Air Force as a flight surgeon during the Vietnam War, who also has the most support from active duty troops. Isn’t it striking how the only Republican frontrunner who actually served in the US military is the one diametrically opposed to the neoconservative agenda of spreading our troops around the globe and endangering us at home?!!!!!

Ho, Ho That’s Rich

Such your phrase on bygone days in the world of comedy was sort of a highly patronizing acknowledgement of someone’s attempt at humor. Obviously that’s rich with humor was the implication. But what’s even richer with humor is when candidate Mitt Romney; sorry, forgot to use his RealFauxNews name of Flitt Romney; maintains that he’s not sure if he’s rich. He’s also yet to release his tax returns. He says if it’s customary he would do it, now he’s talking about April? Why not now before the SC primaries? Because it’s going to show that a man worth almost a quarter of a billion dollars might actually be rich. But the humor, he doesn’t know that that description applies to him…well, that’s taxing.!!!!!

TAXING COMMON SENSE

Mitt Romney’s tax plans would have cuts for every income group, but not all of every income group. If you make:
--Less than $10,000 the cut would be .3% and percentage of people who get a cut would be 13
--$10,000-$20,0000 of those who get a cut (and it would be less that 1%) the cut would be 44.2%,
--$20,000-$30,000 would get a cut of 2.3% going on up to,
--If you make $200,000-$500,000 99.9% of you will get a cut of an average 6.9%, and if you make
--More than $1,000,000 well 100% will get a cut and it will average 14.5%,
--And the average person making more than a million will get a tax change of $290,000 to the good…or to the bad if you believe America is an upwardly mobile society.
And that tax is common sense?

CURB YOUR EXUBERANCE

Word to the following political personas:
Pres. Obama
Mr. Romney
Mr. Gingrich
Curb your exuberance.
For Mr. Obama, when you were sure or hoped that the unemployment rate would drop much faster than it did, rather than being a little more measured conserving your expectation about it going to the 8% and 7%, which it may well do, but your comment was ahead of schedule, and that embarrassed you.
Mr. Romney who was convinced he was about to sweep all 3 primaries only to find out Iowa got switched around and in SC he got turned upside down, it was obvious that he had too much exuberance.
When early polls showed Newt Gingrich had Iowa he was giving “Ayes to the Newt” and said it was obvious he would be the nominee. He got waxed in Iowa, beaten soundly in NH, and suddenly aided by Mr. Romney’s inept debate performance and explanation of his personal finances, there again were Ayes for the Newt.
But everyone should remember to keep expectations calm. Curb your exuberance. Don’t spike the ball on the 10 yard line, or in the case of some of these guys, the 20 or the 30; score first.

Where There’s A Will There’s A Sway

Thank you George Will for summarizing the “winning” record of Mitt Romney going back to his 1994
Senatorial primary. He has been in 25 races and he’s only lost 19 of them. That would be a pretty good
six-pack if it had been like six or seven or eight races. Yes that’s right Mitt, or as we like to call him in
RealFauxNews, Flitt Romney is 6 wins 19 losses in 25 contests. Electability? You bet. He’s like the guy
that you listen to his picks in sports ‘cause you know you make money by betting against him.!!!!!

Bit by Bit We’ll Know Mitt By Mitt

This will be a new feature from RealFauxNews in which we will do no negative advertising on Mitt
Romney. We will simply quote Mitt Romney on Mitt Romney. Today’s thing is he doesn’t know if he’s
rich and he made $45,000,000 last year.

Bit by bit we’ll define Mitt by Mitt.!!!!!
