Obama lies when he claims that the day after the Libyan attack, that he referred to it as an act of terror in the Rose Garden. The transcripts show that's not what he said. That Obama lied, did not stop the moderator from claiming that what Obama said was true.

That's not what a moderator does (perpetuate a lie told by one candidate). That's the act of a campaign worker, which is what that fat slob is.

I loved it when Obama claimed that Romney is a "social extremist". This from the guy who pals around with Bill Ayers, whose spiritual advisor says the feds invented AIDS to kil blacks, a guy who supports infanticide, and a guy who denies First Amendment Rigts to teh Catholic Church. But Romney is the social extremist?

so 15% on dividends is not low enough- he wants zero. He wants zero tax on capital gains. Who has dividends and capital gains? Not me- not you.

If you a 401K or any money invested..... even an investment property....the profit on the sale of the asset is generaly subject to capital gains tax.
Romney said he would drop the rate to zero for people making less than 200k. But the wealthy would still pay.

Now, don't go shredding a favorite liberal talking point with silly little things like truth and facts.

This will encourage middle class people to SAVE for retirement, education, etc.

Will YOU ever stop lying and/or distorting fact to meet your agenda?

But he did not specifically call the Libyan attack an act of terror. And long after that moment in the Rose Garden, Obama went on Letterman and once again presumed a connection with the youtube video.

In the debate last night, Obama claimed that in the rose garden the day after the attack, that he referred to the attack as an act of terror. I don't see that specific reference in the quote you posted. I have no doubt that Obama was referencing the Libyan attack in that comment, but he did not specifically call it an act of terror. On top of that, for days after that, members of his administration specifically said that there was no evidence suggesting it was an act of terror. It's one thing to say "let's wait till the facts are in before we call it an act of terror". It's quite another thing to say "there is no evidence that it was an act of terror", because every shred of evidence pointed to nothing other than an act of terror.

I'm not lying whan I bash Obama. Obama gives us more than enough irrfutable facts to bash him with.

Gordon Gecko vs Erkel. LMAO...

I also wanted to puke when Obama whined to Romney that "my pension is smaller than yours". Romney should have said "please explain to the public how that's my fault".

Obama chastised Romney for investing oversees. Romney fired back that Obama's pension has Chinese investments. I'd love to know if that's true, cuz if it is, it negates that argument completely. If Obama can personally profit from Chinese investments, so can Obama.
