The latest Romney campaign ad in the “Obama Isn’t Working” series highlights Solyndra and other green energy firms that received government loans and then failed. MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” played a version of the ad this morning. If you have not seen it, here it is:
When the ad finished, the panel jumped on the ad, lead by Joe Scarborough:
Let me understand this. The host of MSNBC doesn’t think that a government-sponsored program that lost hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars is worth mentioning in a campaign ad?
Perhaps Joe Scarborough had the same problem when Karl Rove’s organization released a similar ad back in February.

Posted on May 30, 2012 at 4:34pmJust another erudite, well worded comment from a member of the modern media … What in the devil is this world coming to ? “Sucks . ” Manners ? Propriety ? Good taste ? Common sense ? Guess all of the aforementioned questions explain the disastrous Age of Obama. God help us. God help America.

Posted on May 30, 2012 at 5:59pmHey, Scarbutt, this member of the American Public cares about the money waste on the “Green” energy projects. I suspect that Sweet Old Barack picked the companies to loan our money to from his campaign donors.
Sweet Old Barack has wasted more momey, caused more discention, abd borken more laws than any president in history. He akes Jimmy Carter look like one of our sgrongest presidents. Jimmy is happy because he is no longer considered the worst POTUS in modern times.
OMG 2012

Posted on May 30, 2012 at 4:22pmTop three reasons Paulinistas should put aside their principals and patriotism and vote Romney.
1.Consistency – Mitt Romney has been unwavering in his public devotion to the principles and issues that would help to advance the political career of Mitt Romney.
2.Flexibility – Unlike Ron Paul who has been ridiculously rigid in his defense of the U.S. constitution, personal liberty, a balanced budget and the sanctity of life (so much so that he earned the nickname “Dr. No” in congress); Romney has shown that he is capable of rolling with the punches, going with the tide, changing with the times, and bending with the breeze.
3.National debt – Romney is against it. How do we know? Because he said so a whole lot of times in a very convincing tone of voice. And just as soon as he is elected president he will show us how we can eliminate the budget deficit without raising any taxes, eliminating any cabinet departments, reducing military spending, or cutting Social Security, Medicare, or any other popular program. How will he do this? Well he hasn’t explained his whole program but it has something to do with getting rid of all of those federal regulations that are smothering small businesses like Goldman Sachs.

Joe is not a RINO, he simply is not a Republican and supports Obama. MSNBC has a number of so-called Republicans who perform the same function to provide a ‘fair and balanced’ facade.

In FACT more than 70% of of the Energy Dept. money went to Obama’s supporters and money bundlers. THAT should be the big story here. He stuffed billions in their pockets (and the unions), and in return they will stuff millions back into his pockets for the election.

Posted on May 30, 2012 at 4:26pm“Romney supports bailouts and handouts to. what a hypocrite”
Focus like a laser beam you grammatically challenged lout. When attempting to make a point, your argument should relate to the topic. The topic here is MSNBC’s (and more specifially, Joe Scarborough’s) response to the latest Romney Ad exposing our president’s failures with the “green” initiative programs that lost hundreds of millions of our tax dollars. One loses credibility when one attempts to argue that Romney is a “hypocrite” while having nothing to say about the validity of what the ad communicates. Sounds like more of the “Well your guy did it” logic that seems to pervade the progressive psyche as a means for excusing the gross incompetence and fraud that your candidate has perpetuated on the constituency for the last three and half years. Is this really the kind of logic that allows you to sleep better at night, knowing that your vote for the uber-trojan manchurian candidate has done more to drive this country of the cliff in three years as has been done by any of his predecessors in the last 70 years? Sleep well tonight knowing that you did your narcissistic part to make history by voting for the first president of african heritage, you fool…. Great way to make a choice, eh? Repeat after me: “Hope and change, hope and change..you are getting very sleepy….” And now, on to better things…. Walter…Donny? Where did I leave my black russian? I’m needing a little something to wet the whist
