No wonder Obama didn't ask Gov. Romney a question about Bain Capital at the debate.
Obama has been accepting campaign contributions from Bain since 2004 when he ran for the Senate.
Their managing director, Jonathan Levine, also gave between $100-$200K for his 2012 campaign.
The worst part is that most of Obama's criticisms of Bain were based on things that Leveine did after Gov. Romney stopped working there in 2002.
Obama keeps swimming deeper and deeper into a giant cesspool of deception!
--> Pay special attention to the last sentence in bold. <--
“President Obama has based his entire reelection campaign on a vicious, dishonest assault on Mitt Romney’s business career. The real question for President Obama is this: if Bain Capital is so bad, why have you taken nearly $120,000 in donations from them? President Obama’s actions are the height of hypocrisy,” Saul declared.
The precise total is $118,121, and Obama has been taking that Bain money ever since he ran for the Senate. Furthermore, as noted by ABC News “One of Obama’s top campaign financiers – JonathanLavine – is also managing director at Bain, bundling between $100,000 and $200,000 in contributions for the 2012 Obama Victory Fund, according to estimates released by the Obama campaign.”
Humorously, Lavine is also the executive who is actually responsible for some of the decisions Obama has most stridently hammered Romney for, even though they were decisions made after Romney left the company.

This is worthy of investigating further for details. I don't think money should run campaigns at all. Campaign Finance Reform should be something every American ought to be screaming for. If I'm not mistaken, it's mostly the right side of the aisle that agrees with the insane Citizen United decision. It actually is the left wing that is advocating for its repeal. That being said, if "hypocrsiy" bothered you so much, how can you throw support behind a Romney/Ryan ticket when they epitomize the very word.

Trying to spin it, but it won't work. Accusing them of hypocrisy is smoke and mirrors invented by Obama and company.

gas prices double since Obama's election
medium income $3040.00

47 million people on food stamps (this is a record)
Still in a very slow recovery that some even feel like we are in a recovery
Tactic of Deception:
Obama touts we are on the road to recovery

What he's really doing is "rallying himself" to really meaning: I am on the road to recovery to get re-elected against all real untold truths that is responsible for America's downturn.
