Bully Pulpit
Will Mitt’s high school hair cutting hijinks lead to continued bullying if he makes it to the White House? If so, he’ll fit right in. Last time we checked, the Preezy was trying to bully the U.S. Supreme Court into a favorable ruling on Obama Care.
Now, Kimberly Strassel reports from the WSJ that he’s picking on private individuals. The Obama campaign site, Keeping the GOP Honest, posted a list of high rolling Romney donors – or as the site calls them, “”wealthy individuals with less-than-reputable records”. The campaign doesn’t just name names, it conducts opposition research to smear the donors, according to Strassel.
Personally, I think the Washington Post missed the story by focusing on Romney cutting a kid’s hair half a century ago. I want to know what the hell he was doing going over the boards to join in a hockey fight! (the picture is worth enduring the 14 second commercial)
Arizona
While the Supreme Court hears oral arguments over the Arizona immigration law, a Pew study says more Mexican immigrants are leaving the U.S. than entering.
Right-Wing Extremist
The NYT reports that the Obama campaign wants to define Romney as a “right-wing extremist”. Could be extremism is no vice when “The Flipper” is accused of it by Democrats.
Fairness Doctrine
In a 2008 debate, Charlie Gibson asked Barack Obama if he would raise capital gains rates knowing it would cause a decrease in federal revenue. The Occupy White House candidate said,”yes”. Out of fairness.
The Buffet Rule is supposed to force all millionaires to pay a minimum 30% rate, but, according to IBD, the seven figure set could still shift their wealth to tax free municipal bonds.
Buffett Rule or not, the fattest fat cats still pay, by far, the most income taxes.
War on Women
Hilary Rosen has apologized for saying Ann Romney never worked a day in her life. She also insisted that no one says there’s a Republican “war on women”. Nancy Pelosi disagrees.
