		<description>It is hard  to see how Romney will win the election in November. It just won&#039;t happen. Romney has neither character nor temperament to be president of the United States of America. He seeks the presidency all for he wrong reasons.</description>

		<description>This is such incredibly biased journalism that it makes me clearly understand just how bad ABC news will go to try to help a President who cannot run on his own record, but has to try to divert attention to falsehoods and issues that do not lay at the core of this Presidential race.  Shame on ABC for continuing to be an Obama campaign mouthpiece, instead of a fair unbiased voice.  Where&#039;s their story from the family of this &quot;victim&quot; that states their story is inaccurate?  Give me a break.</description>

		<description>I don’t see why Fox News has to bring up GW Bush’s alleged cocane use at this time.

POSTED BY: GREGGW &#124; MAY 11, 2012, 2:23 PM 2:23 PM____________LOL, that&#039;s funny. I wonder if Fox News would go far as saying Bush also moved merchandize?</description>

		<description>Try second grade. The describes it as a “slight shove.”
Wow, hold the presses!

Wikipedia:  In mid-1971, Obama moved back to Hawaii to live with his grandparents in Apt. 1206 in the Punahou Circle Apartments at 1617 S. Beretania Street in Honolulu, and attend Punahou School starting in 5th grade.

Do you really think he would have been the only black in Indonesia?  That&#039;s where he was in second grade.  How naive that you would think he would call it anything other than a &quot;slight shove.&quot;  He wrote this as an adult.  Do you honestly believe he would have said, &quot;i shoved her down and kicked her?&quot;  

How long did it take for the Washington Post to find the &quot;friends&quot; of Romney.  Why haven&#039;t they looked up the girl he shoved?  Or any of the friends that witnessed it?</description>

		<description>&quot;What it means is that in spite of innate tendencies, the choices we make in our lives and reinforce through a life time of practice disproportionately shape our destinies.&quot;

SO...  are you saying that Romney learned to be a bully in high school.  In college, he marched to support the draft so that poor people could fight in a war that he didn&#039;t think he should serve in. And then got improved his skill by moving into vulture capitalism.  And now is ready to be the callous guy who gets a thrill from firing people and who thinks you should die if you can&#039;t afford insurance.

		<description>&quot;hive of rabid leftists anyways&quot;

You know, you can make a hat out of tinfoil, blocks about 87% of the mind control rays.

As far as Romney winning....  nobody will vote for him.  It was a mistake to let the party push Romney into the winner&#039;s circle.  A brokered convention with Ron Paul on ticket is your best bet.</description>

		<description>&quot;Matt, you “forgot” to say tha the Washington Post had LIES in it. You also “forgot” to mention that Obama shoved a GIRL in high school.&quot;

Obama shoved a girl in middle school.  He remembered it.  Even wrote about it in his own book.  But you are nuts if you think Obama feeling bad about shoving someone in middle school is morally equivalent to Mitt attacking someone with scissors for looking gay and slamming a door in a blind man&#039;s face....  You&#039;re even crazier if you find Mitt&#039;s callous response acceptable.  

Mitt attacked a gay kid with scissors...  he still thinks it&#039;s a funny prank.  He can&#039;t remember doing it.  But, hey, if you are offended, he&#039;s sorry that his jokes offend you.

Fox News, those journalists, pointed out that Lauber, the victim, was still kinda funny as an adult.  So, he probably had it coming to him.  At least that&#039;s the Fox News angle.</description>

		<description>Totally bogus analysis. First of all it amounts to a fatalist reduction of human character.

What they are saying is that someone who does some silly prank as a teenager cannot change because their character traits are fixed for all eternity.

Science has demonstrated through studies into neuro plasticity that our personalities can change through reinforced behavior by fundamentally reorganizing neurons in the brain over time.

What it means is that in spite of innate tendencies, the choices we make in our lives and reinforce through a life time of practice disproportionately shape our destinies.

The Washington Post is a hive of rabid leftists anyways - but the problem with their analysis is they put more emphasis on some long forgotten event from 45 years ago, than they do on the other things of substantial consequence that have happened since then.

This is actually at odds with what science is telling us.

These people are Ob-automatons - aka voodoo journalists writing politically motivated gossip columns. They are only reinforcing their own destiny through their actions.

Romney is going to win. That&#039;s what the tea leaves are saying. That&#039;s why these desperate smears are being published.</description>
