Take Rush Limbaugh for example even though he's trying to walk it back this is exactly what he said about the Batman movie, There was more but that was the crux of it I mean you can't even make that shyt up lol. I mean the conservatives have a who's who of crazy on a weekly basis. Ann Coulter, Rush, Beck, Bachmann, Dick Cheney, Sarah Palin, Hannity, O'Rielly, Trump. The Dems are no where close in numbers and that's just a partial line up from the crazy on the conservative side.

    The reasons McCain slammed Bachmann is because Abedin is a friend and he can recognize crazy all over Bachmann and knows that kind of shyt kills your parties credibility.
    Well, I mean, Bill Clinton did save a whole lot of Muslim *** over in Bosnia so....

    Ironic as to how similar Romney sounded ten years ago when he told Olympic athletes who trained all their lives to attain the goal of competing something very, very similar.

    Love me some www.factcheck.org>>>

    Mitt Romney and his allies have attacked President Barack Obama — often out of context — for saying, “If you’ve got a business — you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen.”

    American Crossroads posted a 60-second Web video called “Build” that shows small-business owners reacting to Obama’s “you didn’t build that” comment.

    The Romney campaign replays Obama saying “if you’ve got a business, you didn’t build that” five times in a 15-second video as part of a “petition” drive. It also uses the quote in an email fundraising appeal.

    Sen. Scott Brown of Massachusetts posted a two-and-a-half-minute Web video that juxtaposes the president’s remarks against statements made by other presidents on the importance of free enterprise.

    There’s no question Obama inartfully phrased those two sentences, but it’s clear from the context what the president was talking about. He spoke of government — including government-funded education, infrastructure and research — assisting businesses to make what he called “this unbelievable American system that we have.”

    In summary, he said: “The point is … that when we succeed, we succeed because of our individual initiative, but also because we do things together.”

    Obama, July 13: There are a lot of wealthy, successful Americans who agree with me — because they want to give something back. They know they didn’t — look, if you’ve been successful, you didn’t get there on your own. You didn’t get there on your own. I’m always struck by people who think, well, it must be because I was just so smart. There are a lot of smart people out there. It must be because I worked harder than everybody else. Let me tell you something — there are a whole bunch of hardworking people out there. (Applause.)

    If you were successful, somebody along the line gave you some help. There was a great teacher somewhere in your life. Somebody helped to create this unbelievable American system that we have that allowed you to thrive. Somebody invested in roads and bridges. If you’ve got a business — you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen. The Internet didn’t get invented on its own. Government research created the Internet so that all the companies could make money off the Internet.

    The point is, is that when we succeed, we succeed because of our individual initiative, but also because we do things together. There are some things, just like fighting fires, we don’t do on our own. I mean, imagine if everybody had their own fire service. That would be a hard way to organize fighting fires.

    So we say to ourselves, ever since the founding of this country, you know what, there are some things we do better together. That’s how we funded the GI Bill. That’s how we created the middle class. That’s how we built the Golden Gate Bridge or the Hoover Dam. That’s how we invented the Internet. That’s how we sent a man to the moon. We rise or fall together as one nation and as one people, and that’s the reason I’m running for President — because I still believe in that idea. You’re not on your own, we’re in this together.

    Moral of the story - don't pay attention to political ads. They are all crap from all sides.
