Very much a lie you mean and clearly disrespectful for a "journalist" to call Mitt "Willard".
4 years ago it was racist to use a mans name in a way he didnt want it used.
Christy has been more forthright that most politicians and your insult cannot undo the facts.
Obama is the liar.
OK, so it is "disrespectful" for a journalist to call Mitt Romney "Willard," which is actually his real first name, but it is OK for YOU to call our President a "Liar." The Office of the President, even one so pitifully inept as George W. Bush, should be treated with respect, no matter how much you don't like or disapprove of him.

Regardless of party affiliation, we are all Americans in desperate need of some real leadership ... in place of more politics! We don't know if Romney will actually be able to produce the leadership he seems to offer .... BUT, anyone with eyes in their head can clearly see that our current President ... after 4-years, still doesn't seem to have a clue about a real solution! Enough is enough!
Don't you get it? The Republican Party wanted to get rid of Obama from the day he took office. They have obstructed every attempt he has made to get ANY of his programs to improve our country or the economy or increase jobs passed through congress. The Republicans have been the ones who have stopped any attempt to help the people of the U.S., merely because they want one of their own party in the office of the President. Shame on them for what they have wrought on the American people. They only care about their idealogy and nothing for the poor or unemployed.
I listened to or watched several hours of the Republican National Convention last evening. In the Esquire Magazine political blog this morning Charles Pierce, writing from Tampa, offered his review of yesterday's convention events. I think his comments probably most accurately describe my feelings as I listened to the speakers. The theme of the evening - a huge investment in time and energy - was to highlight the false claims of the GOP that the President said something he didn't say ... the "Build it" (who did, who didn't, who said what, who didn't say it) theme. Here's a portion of what Pierce wrote:

The Ron Paul supporters were chanting "Seat them now". The Romney supporters tried to drown them out with chants of "U.S.A.". They werent' yelling at her, but they were entirely disrepsectful and inconsiderate in a way that I don't believe they would have been to a white male.
Many Republicans are bigots, racists, and sexists, and but I don't think this incident was a direct attack on Zoraida Fonalledas or Puerto Rico. It was unfortunate timing, and a show of great disrespect in general.
For those that think Romney was handed his career: How many people do you know that went to law school and business school at the same time? Maybe some of the people you know got through college smoking pot and snorting coke and their grades were so bad that they can't even make them public.

Dang it, don't post the DNC platform until their convention!
