The burden of proof lies with the person making the accusation.

Obama hates, attacks and denigrates success and successful people. So if he is everyone's president that would mean that everyone is America are failures.

Go back and listen again. Romney was talking to donors who want him to use the money they give wisely in trying to win the election, they didn't want their money wasted.. Everyone knows that there were people who would vote for Obama no matter what. Romney, who is smart with money was saying he would use the money to campaign to people he could reach. If you ask me, it would be smart. It does not say he doesn't care or wouldn't do anything to help once in office.

Let me give you an example... Would you spend money to advertise birth control to gays? Would you spend money to advertise to a group of people who have no interest in what your selling?

When campaigning, you go to people who you think you can reach, you don't go to the people who's minds are already made up.
Yes and a good chunk of people wouldn't vote for Obama simply because he's black. That doesn't mean you slander or ignore them. Plus I've heard a little too much lately of taking more stuff away from the working poor (not talking non working poor) yet have no problem with hedge fund managers being given tax credits to stay in an area. Plus you assume that the 47% had their minds made up which is rather prejudice of you. Trying to reach out to EVERYONE is essential for any candidate. Taking the high road shows good leadership skills.

LOL. Sure, Petch, whatever you say. I love how you regress into the inane when you have nothing left.

Give me an example please. I'm not an Obama fan, but I don't think he does this.

Ok Harry Reid, here we go with the false racist accusations again.

It is a sad day that so many liberals think this is okay.

Admiration for a liar and cheat is why the country is becoming morally bankrupt. What can you say to your kids when leaders like Reid deliberately lie. This wasn't a case of an honest mistake or bad intelligence, it was a knowing, willful lie.

You might ask the current occupant of the White House that very same question.

You know you've fallen down the bizarre-o world hole when you get the right defending a corrupt Democratic politician like Menendez because it plays into their unrelenting hatred of the president.
We know Reid lied because 1) his lips were moving 2) it is not credible that one of the wealthiest men in the country was not paying taxes or paying the wrong amount. The IRS pays special attention to the wealthy.

As to Bob Menendez, he is being defended because there is a disturbing pattern of Obama critics being silenced. It started with the tea party movement, then reporters who asked too tough of questions, then Petraeus...... I am sure there are others who will come to me.

That is exactly how Obama is behaving now, only now it is worse. He is under 50% support, lost the last election badly and not only fails to acknowledge that "elections have consequences" as he famously once said, but is actively using extra-constitutional methods to end run Congress outside the scope of his authority.

LOL, see, just like Romney said, you're a waste of time.

Well over half the country doesn't ever want to see him in the Oval Office. Good.
It was another blunder to be certain. Romney would have been better than Obama, but the GOP should have nominated a better candidate. Huntsman and Paul were a whole lot more likeable folks. Sadly, the GOP establishment crapped on both guys because they weren't conformist enough. Huntsman learned his lesson and won't run again. Paul is just too damn old at this point.

Still, that soundbyte was illegally obtained via the very same tactics that Richard Nixon was about to be impeached for before he resigned. Why did the Dems get away with murder on that one?
