One can hope.

(45,019 posts)We can't have public figures walking around lying like that.
We've got to make an example of Romney and show
the world (and our children) that lying is not okay.
And will not go unpunished.

(25,266 posts)Rmoney out of desperation - and because it wasn't a topic for discussion at the debate - was forced to walk it back his 47% comments to a group of donors post-debate. He now is really made to look like a weasel that it trying to save his own skin.
Obama, the Dems, the Media and We The People should not let Rmoney get away with weaseling out of what we all know is how he really feels. We collectively have to put a stop to his lies. This is his big character flaw. This is what has got him through life this far. Living a life of privilege and lying, weaseling and buying his way out of trouble. He is not presidential material and he must be stopped. He must be put in his place and taught a lesson. He needs to be embarrassed to the point that he slinks away never to be recognized again.
If this happens - future candidates will think twice about using tactics like this in there bid for office.
Ryan has been proven a liar as well. He needs to have a comeuppance and put in his place too. It seems like Rmoney/Ryan are poster boys for un-truthtiness and need to be made examples of.
I only hope that the American People see through their tactics and don't by some chance elect them. The Repugs in general need to be taught a lesson. Their stonewalling, their disenfranchising voters and suppressing votes, their support for people and programs that are contrary to all we have come to love and respect about this country. They need to lose big in November. We need to re-elect President Obama. We need to give him a mandate to lead. We need to further help him by giving him back the House and maintaining and/or enhancing the Senate. Helping President Obama is a way of helping ourselves recover from the devastating and lingering effects of the Bush Administration.

(18,133 posts)Cheat and lie, as long as you get your way it doesn't matter. That's how they approach everything.
Trip your daughter-in-law to win a sack race and you win.
Tell every constituency what they want to hear and then do whatever you want once in office.
