The Obama campaign has stepped up its mockery of Mitt Romney's foreign policy views, continuing a theme rolled out at the Democratic National Convention to portray the Republican candidate, who has limited foreign policy experience, as out of his depth in international affairs.
The latest installment: a fake movie poster that uses the line Senator John Kerry debuted in his speech two days ago at the convention, where he compared Mitt Romney's national security ideas to those of Sarah Palin.
"Sarah Palin said she could see Russia from Alaska," Kerry said on Thursday. "Mitt Romney talks like he's only seen Russia by watching Rocky IV."
President Obama also piled on in his DNC speech: "After all, you don’t call Russia our number-one enemy — not al Qaeda, Russia — unless you’re still stuck in a Cold War mind warp."
Mocking Mitt Romney while using a Sarah Palin reference, isn't that kind of MY job?
Well great now I have a hankering to watch Sly Stallone pummel the Russian vodka out of Dolph Lundgren.
Movie day!
Mitt Romney is such a weasely, lying, flip flopping, bumbling, disgusting excuse for a candidate, I honestly don't see how anyone could vote for him, but remember the media HAS to make this a horse race because there are hundreds of millions of advertising dollars on the line. Remember that when you see stupid bullshit like in those Florida papers yesterday . It is in THEIR best interest to keep Mitt the Twit and Lyin Ryan on life support as long as possible, not in the interest of the voters.
ReplyDeleteYes, that lamestream media of Palin's is alive and well, and just like in 2008, they are rolling over for GOP dollars. it was comival to hear McCain say that she was so very picked on in 2008...she brought everything on herself, and then added logs to the fire every time she opened those lying lips. She has something big on Johnny...is he having another affair? It seems to happen after 18 years of marriage with him.
DeleteAnd GOP, next go 'round, how about you find a candidate without the Barbie wife? There must be some, or did they all run to the Democratic Party because the wife didn't want to be eye candy and a brood mare?
I think McCain is/was a serial cheater. He cheated on his first wife LOTS -- not just with Cindy but with LOTS of ladies, before and after Vietnam. It seems like he was spectacularly terrible, though, after Vietnam, after his first wife, who waited for him, devotedly, got into a terrible car accident that changed her looks. He married Cindy three weeks after divorce one as finalized.
DeleteMy dad was a big McCain lover and also a criticizer of Clinton -- I pointed out that McCain, who voted FOR impeachment, married his second wife so soon after his first wife and he told me I must be wrong, and then, when he remembered that I'm smarter and better read than he is, he backtracked and said that McCain probably was separated from wife #1 when he met Cindy...
(Yeah, right...he probably saw that she was $$$$$loaded$$$$$ and decided that that sounded like fun!)
And how about the RNC using a staffer as a fake ex-Obama supporter. They can't even find a real Latina who is pissed off at Obama? The Rmoney campaign is just writing the Dems ads for them.

Ann Romney wore a $1,300 pair of designer John Galliano's shoes for her convention speech.
ReplyDeleteGalliano was tried in France and last September, he was found guilty of making anti-Semitic remarks.
"I love Hitler... People like you would be dead. Your mothers, your forefathers would all be fucking gassed."
Romney's campaign managers are fucking idiots to let her promote this designer ... and Ann is also an idiot for wearing them.
Can someone tweet this info to Sarah Silverman... she will use it with Florida Jewish voters.
I contacted the ADL and asked why they haven't said anything about this.
DeleteI also noticed that she was wearing Galliano...and I noticed that no one -- NO. ONE. -- in the media said anything about this. They were too busy implying that Obama and the Democrats hate Israel for not mentioning Jerusalem in their platform to point out the fact that Ann Romney chose to buy shoes from a convicted anti-semite.
If Michelle Obama had worn these shoes ....
DeleteFox news would be talking about it every hour, every day, until the election.
Prosecuted for making anti-Semitic remarks, by a court? I haven't heard about this. I'm surprised that in France, this is against the law. Are you sure about this?
DeleteGoogle the name John Galliano
DeleteOn 8 September 2011, he was found guilty of making anti-Semitic remarks. John Galliano has been sentenced to pay a total of €6,000 (US$8,400) in suspended fines after a French court found him guilty of giving public insults on account of race.
ALSO
France has stripped the disgraced British fashion designer John Galliano of his Légion d'Honneur, the country's highest honour, a year after his conviction for making anti-Semitic comments in a Paris bar.
Yup.
DeleteGoogle it!
Kinda a big deal in France to be a Nazi, since they were occupied by them and all.
Technically the charge was this:
"public insults based on origin, religious affiliation, race or ethnicity" and declared to have had "sufficient awareness of his actions"
And, technically, the court said he wasn't a racist -- I over-reached when I said he was a convicted anti-Semite -- however, this wasn't the only incident. There was also a video of him saying, "I love Hitler." There's more evidence that he's an anti-Semite that there is of Mel Gibson....
And this was in the news against, recently, because he was stripped of his French Legion of Honor award last month -- LAST MONTH!
There was a shit-ton of blowback about this and it was in the news for a good month or so. He got fired from Dior over it, too.
http://articles.latimes.com/2011/sep/08/world/la-fg-france-galliano-20110909
Come on, 7:38. Take 10 seconds to Google for the link. Public insults based on origin, race ethnicity, religion are a crime in France. Galiano was convicted; fine suspended, but paid over $23K in legal fees and now has a criminal record.
DeleteMichelle wore an outfit by American designer.
DeleteAnn wore a French designer dress (Dior) and shoes by a racist.
What would Fox have to say about this if it was reversed? Hannity would be having orgasms on air while screaming about it.
What was Ann Romney thinking? John Galliano sacked by Dior
Deletehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dW-s4QC-8C8
It looks like Janna Ryan wore the same Galliano shoes.

Romney did not favors for de la Renta in that shirtwaste, it did not flatter her or make him look relevant just because it is red.
Did Ann Romney's Dress Have Anti-Obama Subtext?

Hey, you people are just jealous of their wealth, and besides, the Galliano shoes are to relieve the effects of MS. The expensive red dress, too!
DeleteAnn's been in a dark place with no hope, therapeutic Dressage Horses, Galliano Shoes, and CHRISTIAN Dior dresses fix that, AND pander to the Christian vote. Not so much to the Judeo vote, Sarah's got that market cornered with the Star of David. ;o)
Come on! Be fair (and balanced LOL)! With a Romney presidency, we will be in good shape for negotiations if we go to war with France.
ReplyDeleteNo we won't. When Mitty was in France trying to 'convert' the French to Mormonism -- he failed.
DeleteHis French speaking skills - dreadful. He destroys the language when he's tossed out a few French references. The French don't take kindly to that at all knowing he did live there for a period of time.
Therefore what I'm saying -- he's screwed in France too!!
Mitt fought during the Vietnam war ..
Deletefor dinner reservations in Paris
And he can't go to Italy because Bain screwed them over. And Russia? Not so much. Golly, Mitt, just who in the world likes you besides cardboard Ann?

Well let's see. There's all those countries that welcome Rmoney's off-shore accounts:
* Switzerland
* the Cayman Islands
* Luxembourg
* Bermuda
Then I'm sure Rmoney's buddies in El Salvador would welcome Willard and Annie.
And let's not forget China, where Willard's beloved Bain sent so many American jobs.
Oh there's a few places left in the world where Willard can sport his Costco shirts and Annie can flaunt her $1300 pumps.
Kerry & the DNC get full credit marks for the Palin comparison comment -- and that's what it was -- a 'comparison' comment -- not specifically a reference to her which she of course being so narcissitic believes it is.
ReplyDeleteAward them Full Credit Marks -- Why?
They did not use the Tina Fey SNL 'see Russia from my house'.
Yeah, but he ALMOST said, "from her house" -- he ALMOST did, you have to admit that!!!
DeletePS:
ReplyDeleteMittens is NOW saying he doesn't HATE Obamacare and he wants to keep parts of it...Basically, he wants to eat the full three-course meal and then skip out on the bill.
Plus, he wants to repeal the law and then enact another law that would just cherry pick the parts he likes. The problem with this is that he WON'T HAVE THE VOTES to pass the law, and he HAS to know that a chunk of GOPers won't support it and he HAS to know that the entire Democratic caucus will sit out this vote! He HAS to know that!!!
The Teabaggers might support him when he's running for Prez but they're not going to help him when he IS the prez.
Romney is going etch a sketch on repealing Obamacare now. He did tap dance around overturning Roe vs Wade revealing his intentions.
ReplyDeleteRyan has the job of repeating and projecting Obama lies, lies, and lies.
I just watched David Gregory give Mittens a journalistic hand job on MTP.
ReplyDeleteThat show needs a REAL reporter to replace his loser ass.
I personally caught at least three big whoppers that Romney told, I know there are more.
David Gregory sucks
DeleteHow quickly do you think the lies will be published nationwide?

@7:57 : No, No... Gryph said it was a HAND job!
DeleteI watched it, what a fluff piece. Who does interviews on an empty roof with patriotic bunting and a Romney sign? Did they run out of studio space? It just made Mr Roboto look more awkward.
DeleteLove the fact they added Palin's name to this poster!!! It's another NEGATIVE to the Romney campaign!! And, remember, he is the one that put it out there that they did not want her attending the Republican Convention.
ReplyDeleteShe's nothing more than a has been and I cannot imagine that Mittens will be elected. President Obama is doing one hell of a good job and I suspect he is further ahead in the race than the media is indicating.

Yes I love that too...but do you see how SMALL her name is on the poster? Just like her! LOL!!
Que all the ril patriotic Merican's that get sooooo mad when you say Sarah said she could see Russia from her house.
ReplyDeleteThey have never understood the significance of that sound SNL mocking.

Sarah Palin has become nothing more than a 'name tag'!!
ReplyDeleteSo, the geniuses on Fox News Friday morning said, "Well, the Democrats had a tough week. How will they recover?"....
ReplyDeleteDon't you wonder what drugs these Fox News folks take? The Democratic Convention was a masterpiece in bringing people together and energizing them to "go forth" and win.
DeleteBeaglemom
People like you anonymous bloggers just don't get.
ReplyDeleteLyin' Ryan has answered this very well.
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/09/09/paul-ryan-russia-mitt-romney_n_1868511.html
Ryan said on CBS' "Face the Nation" that he believes Iran is the country's greatest political foe, but that Romney was only considering China and Russia when he made his remark. "I think what he was saying was among the other powers, China and Russia, that Russia stands a great threat."
See I told you. Ryan got an etch-a-sketch, too, also.
You betcha!
Sarah Palin has become the litmus test of "Stupid". I think she kind of demeaned herself by saying Kerry demeaned himself by mentioning her name.
ReplyDeleteDan Quayle is doing the happy dance.
