| This is Mitt Romney, and, as you probably know, I’m the Republican candidate for president. I’d like to start off by saying that our thoughts and prayers are with those on the East Coast who have been affected by Hurricane Sandy. Americans come together in times of crisis. Our first impulse is to come to the aid of those in need. This time will be no different, and we will help our fellow Americans recover from this tragic storm.

I think this man will be elected and I think he will be great. So glad he is really smart and whatever the Donks have in mind re stealing the election he has something in mind re not having it stolen. I think his team can outpower theirs. Not a naive twit! Thank you, Lord!

How about Sunday night at 8 EST, we all get on our knees and pray for Romney. For the polls to run smoothly and for vote fraud to fail.
We need all the help we can get. Romney is a much better candidate than I ever imagined he'd be and I think he'd be an excellent president.

#2 Sounds like a good idea. He needs our prayers and our votes.

Prayer is much more powerful than anyone thinks. For weeks I had been praying for my husband to vote his conscience instead of the propaganda he was insisting on watching on network TV. Our mail-in ballots arrived and we filled them out. He said, "I'll be cancelling out your vote." But I didn't give up and kept praying...
Fast forward to yesterday. In the morning he received an email from a friend that described O's bribing Lockheed Martin with tax money to hold off announcing layoffs until after the election. He also received an email from the union in which he had been a steward until recently. The union basically told him, "Vote for Obama or else."
After work we drove to city hall to drop off our ballots. He turned off the car engine and we picked up our ballots... and suddenly he flipped his into the back seat and said "I'm not doing this." I looked at him like "What are you talking about?" He said, "I'm not going to cancel out your vote. Go drop off your ballot."
Prayer works!!

Sorry for second post, but that's a great story. I always wonder why my one family member is so dedicated to the Democrats. It's because he gets his news from the NYT and Time magazine. He's been trained to think Fox is lying all the time, even when the facts are clearly on their side.
The other day he posted an article on FB from the NYT about Romney lying about the autobailout. Thing is, fact checkers have backed Romney on that one. NYT is lying. My family member used to care about the fact check sites but he's abandoned them in favor of his "news sources". Total koolaid drinker.
So, good for you. I'm happy your husband is such a decent person he saw that he can't support the fraud and corruption of the Democrat party.
Sunday night, 8 EST, let's keep the date. Tell your friends.

Fallon: Last week Obama asked China´s president to stop spying on Americans. And the Chinese leader responded, "You first." Conan: Everyone please turn off your phones. I’ve got some jokes I don’t want the government to hear. Leno: Eliot Spitzer and John Edwards both have birthdays the other day. Which explains why no strippers were available for other parties. Fallon: Hillary Clinton finally joined Twitter and got more than 200,000 followers in five hours. They were like, “Hillary in 2016!” and “Washington needs Hillary!” “Hillary for the White House!” That´s not her followers. Those were her tweets.

Hi, everybody. This Sunday is Father’s Day, and so I wanted to take a moment to talk about the most important job many of us will ever have — and that’s being a dad. Today we’re blessed to live in a world where technology allows us to connect instantly with just about anyone on the planet. But no matter how advanced we get, there will never be a substitute for the love and support and, most importantly, the presence of a parent in a child’s life. And in many ways, that’s uniquely true for fathers.

Sen. Lamar Alexander gives the Republican Party Weekly Remarks I’m United States Senator Lamar Alexander. This is the season for high school graduations. And more than two million of those graduating are going to college. Both Republicans and Democrats agree that college is the surest ticket to the middle class and we want to help by making it simpler and smarter to get a student loan. [Snip] But we have a major disagreement about who should be in charge of our 100,000 public schools that educate 50 million American children. To put it simply, Democrats want a national school board; Republicans favor local control.

An amazing scene in Boston yesterday. Barack Obama returned to the city of one of his biggest triumphs (his 2004 Democrat convention speech) and one of his worst political spankings (the 2010 repudiation by Massachusetts Senate voters of his candidate). Those were tough days for the ex-state legislator, you may recall. Virginia voters had just rejected Obama´s choice for governor. New Jersey voters had just rejected Obama´s choice for governor. [Snip] And now here’s Obama trying to salvage another race with hypocrisy.

Barack Obama: Real Good Talker, Really Bad Communicator

Once upon a time Barack Obama was known as a good speech-giver. That´s how he debuted in 2004 and why he almost always relies on a teleprompter; so he can concentrate on delivery, not content. Does he even know how often rote he sounds? Watch him on these day-trip photo ops. He´s a tired actor in a long-running Broadway play, reciting the same lines over and over with less and less conviction. For the summit with China´s new president, America´s first lady didn´t bother to go. [Snip] Turns out, Obama might sound good. But he´s actually an awful communicator.

Conan: The founder of IKEA has stepped down. He said he plans on spending some time putting his life back together. Fallon: A 66-year-old man in China just found out he´s actually a woman. He went his whole life thinking he had a yin, when he had a yang. Leno: Obama’s spying on our phones. How about he spies on the IRS next time it has a $4 million party with our money? Fallon: Russia has a new law banning smoking in public. Smokers not happy. They said, “What is this, Russia?”

Fellow Americans: I’m Congressman Luke Messer from Indiana. It is my honor to speak to you today on behalf of my Republican colleagues. This summer, more than nine million undergraduates will take out a federal student loan. That’s nine million Americans at the start of their journey toward the American Dream. As a young man growing up in a small town in Indiana, I was taught: if you want a great life, get a good education. So I did—but it wasn’t easy.

As the post’s community-liaison officer, Howard was charged with keeping workplace peace and advising higher-ups on the state of morale, but when she revealed allegations about her boss, State Department officials swept it under the rug,

Five months into his second term, allies and enemies are as confounded as ever about who President Obama really is. Is he the dyed-in-the-wool liberal that his biggest supporters and critics suggest? Or is he a pragmatic, even cynical, politician who cares more for his popularity than taking risks for his ideological goals or living up to his rhetoric? Even in the short period since his reelection, Obama has provided evidence to support conflicting interpretations. His efforts to pass immigration reform, the unsuccessful push for stricter gun controls and tax hikes on high earners buttress the case for Obama-as-ideologue.

Jeb Bush says he’s not worried that his work toward comprehensive immigration reform and his ties to the GOP establishment will alienate conservatives and negatively impact a potential 2016 presidential campaign, referring to critics as “the chirpers.” “If I decide to run for office again, it will be based on what I believe, and it will be based on my record,” the former Florida governor said in an interview with the Christian Broadcasting Network’s David Brody. “And that record was one of solving problems completely from a conservative prospective.” Bush (R) pointed to his conservative

As NewsBusters reported last week, former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin called out vulgarian comedian Bill Maher for referring to her Down Syndrome son Trig as "retarded." On ABC´s The View Monday, co-host Barbara Walters astonishingly defended Maher saying, "I don´t think he intended it to be mean-spirited" (video follows with transcript and commentary): WHOOPI GOLDBERG: At a recent standup show in Las Vegas, comedian Bill Maher apparently called Sarah Palin’s five-year-old developmentally-challenged son Trig retarded. And Sarah blasted him on Twitter as a bully. Is that, is it, is he a bully? Is he a bad, what is he?

Gang of Eight member Bob Menendez advised Republicans to accept legalization status for current illegal immigrants if they ever want to see another president from their party. “I would tell my Republican colleagues — both in the House and the Senate — that the road to the White House comes through a road with a pathway to legalization,” the New Jersey senator said on State of the Union this morning. “Without it, there’ll never be a road to the White House for the Republican party.” Menendez also warned of triggers on border security

Politico’s Playbook has an excerpt from a new Ryan Lizza piece from the New Yorker that is not yet online. It contains a passage on the back-and-forth between labor and the Chamber that has a quote from a Rubio staffer that is going to raise eyebrows, to say the least: “There are American workers who, for lack of a better term, can’t cut it. There shouldn’t be a presumption that every American worker is a star performer. There are people who just can’t get it, can’t do it, don’t want to do it. And so you can’t obviously discuss that publicly.” Here is the entire context:
