(Only one more of these left, and then we can hopefully consign Mitt Romney to the Liar’s Hall of Shame and the scrap heap of history.)
The further a society drift from Truth, the more it will hate those that speak it.
- George Orwell
Chronicling Mitt’s Mendacity, Vol. XL: Why is the election as close as it is? Do Americans just not care that one of the candidates is a serial liar? Do they not recognize that no one knows who Romney is or what he stands for?
Mitt’s Top 10 Lies: I feel sorry for the poor soul who waded through the hundreds, and now perhaps thousands, of lies in order to whittle the list down to 10. Someone needs a long, hot shower….
Shocker. Romney Lied About His Binders Full of Women: Quelle surprise, non??
‘Romnesia’ and the weasel factor: “Weasel factor”…”shameless liar”…in the end, it’s the same thing. We can’t know who Mitt Romney is, nor will we be able to divine whatever it is he stands for…besides his own ample self-interest.
Which Mitt?: Who IS Mitt Romney? And WHAT does he really stand for…besides being, doing, and saying whatever he thinks is necessary to win votes? How can we know that a candidate with no core beliefs won’t also be a President with no core beliefs?
“Romney, Though, is Shameless”: Newspaper endorsements usually aren’t worth the paper they’re printed on, but when editorial boards openly question a politician’s motives and integrity, he’s got a problem. Mitt Romney’s a shameless liar, and while the Mainstream Media seems loathe to point out the obvious, many newspaper editorial boards aren’t so sanguine.
When Romney Says He Knows how to Reduce Deficits and Balance Budgets, He’s Lying: Given Romney’s gift for mendacity, it would probably be easier to try and determine when he’s telling the truth…if only because it seems to be happening so infrequently these days.
At The Last Presidential Debate: Romney Told 24 Myths In 41 Minutes: It’s a bird!! It’s a plane!!. No, it’s Mitt Romney, lying faster than the media could possibly fact-check him.
GOP Jumps The Shark: Congressman Suggests Obama Doctored Libyan Intelligence To Win Reelection: House Homeland Security Committee Chairman Peter King (R-NY) understands that when the facts aren’t kinf to you, your best option is to just make stuff up in the hopes that something will stick and impugn the reputation of your opponent. In King’s case, no unsubstantiated accusation is too underhanded.
From his embrace of the party’s radical right wing, to subsequent portrayals of himself as a moderate champion of the middle class, Romney has raised the most frequently asked question of the campaign: “Who is this guy, really, and what in the world does he truly believe?”…. The evidence suggests no clear answer, or at least one that would survive Romney’s next speech or sound bite. Politicians routinely tailor their words to suit an audience. Romney, though, is shameless, lavishing vastly diverse audiences with words, any words, they would trade their votes to hear.
Tribune endorsement: Too Many Mitts: If the man will lie openly and shamelessly during the campaign, how can we trust that he’s telling the truth when he’s installed in the Oval Office?
A Comprehensive Timeline Of Mitt Romney’s Foreign Policy Positions During The Campaign: Try to keep up…this is going to get confusing.
Remembering Romney’s ‘relative disinterest in bipartisan collaboration’: Of course, now Romney’s telling us that he was a bipartisan governor. Whatever happened to “Severely Conservative Mitt?”
LOL Of The Week: Mitt Goes Back To The Future: A “remarkable disregard for the facts”…that phrase sums up the entirety of Mitt Romney’s (lack of) character and his campaign.
‘Romnesia’ extends to marriage equality: Memo to the Romney/Ryan campaign: truth is not a fungible concept.
Romney Or Obama? Politifact Determines Who’s The Bigger Liar: And, to no rational observer’s surprise, Mitt Romney is the winner. Or, in this case, loser.
Romney’s offensive on Benghazi unravels: Man, doesn’t it just suck when your narrative isn’t supported- and is in fact negated- by the truth?
The ‘apology tour’ lie comes full circle: No matter how many times Mitt Romney repeats the charge, Barack Obama has NEVER apologized for America. Romney’s a shameless liar who disregards and disrespects anything save for his own self-interest and lust for power…not that this “news” should surprise anyone with half a brain.
