How Long Can Romney Keep Quiet About His Mormonism While He Panders to Evangelicals?
Post Date: 2012-04-20 19:36:30 by Brian S
3 Comments
At first blush, Mitt Romney’s reluctance to talk about his faith might seem like a positive development to any supporter of secularism in presidential politics. But he’s only tight-lipped about his Mormonism, not about religious right causes, which he is more than happy to take up. Even when the teachings of his own faith intersect, quite neatly on matters of sex and gender in particular, with the theo-politics of the Republican Party, he’s more likely to defend the Catholic Church than his own. If the past is any guide, at his upcoming commencement address at Liberty University, he’s more likely to invokethe religious right’s “Christian nation” ...

Obama Enjoys 10-1 Financial Edge Over Romney

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama's re-election effort enjoyed a 10-to-1 financial edge over Republican rival Mitt Romney last month, out-raising the former Massachusetts governor by millions as Obama stuffed more than $104 million into his campaign war chest. A nasty primary battle between Romney and his GOP rivals took a financial toll on his presidential campaign, which raised $12.6 million in March and left Romney with about $10 million in the bank by month's end. All told, Obama and the Democratic Party raised a combined $53 million in donations during that period, while Romney with his party pulled in about half of that. Still, an anticipated fire hose of cash ...

Jeb Bush: I'd Consider Vice Presidency

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. -- Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush says he'd consider running as vice president with Mitt Romney, but doubts he'll ever be asked. Bush tells the conservative website Newsmax that Florida Sen. Marco Rubio is "probably the best" choice to share the ticket with Romney, the presumptive GOP presidential nominee. Bush said he hopes the freshman senator is offered the No. 2 slot and accepts it. Rubio has said repeatedly that he isn't interested in leaving the Senate. Bush said he'd consider running if Romney were to ask him. But the former governor added that he's not sure running for vice president is the right thing for him and said he's ...

Stewart: Watch Fox Pundits’ Reversals Now That ‘Mitt Happened’

It has been said with regard to candidates, Democrats fall in love, but Republicans fall in line, and on Thursday night’s “The Daily Show,” host Jon Stewart rolled the tape to show us this fascinating process in action. First up was former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin (R), who in an interview on Fox News said that voters were unconvinced of Governor Mitt Romney (R-MA)’s conservative bona-fides, which was why, she alleged, that for much of the process we did not see Romney “get over that hump.” Then Stewart showed footage of pundits Charles Krauthammer and Dick Morris making much the same argument, that Romney is a “northeastern” Republican, not to ...

Romney Supporter Nugent Admitted to Multiple Affairs With Underage Girls in '98 VH1 Documentary
Post Date: 2012-04-19 17:01:02 by Brian S

It appears Ted Nugent's violent rhetoric at the NRA convention over the weekend may not be the only problem facing the Romney campaign with their acceptance of his endorsement. Jason Easley at Politicus USA reports that Nugent apparently had a penchant for messing around with underage teenage girls when he was in his thirties and out on the road touring. The term "pedophile" is not technically correct for what Ted Nugent was doing, but it doesn't make it any less disgusting that the man was out there talking the parents of teenage girls into allowing him to have sex with their underage daughters. Here's more from their post -- Is Mitt Romney Aware That Ted ...

ALEC Sends Out an SOS to Breitbart Bloggers

Shortly after issuing a press release announcing that it was disbanding its “Public Safety and Elections Task Force” after 30 years, the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) held a training for the right-wing blogosphere. ALEC Director of External Relations Caitlyn Korb spoke yesterday at a Heritage Foundation “Bloggers Briefing,” begging conservative bloggers for help while prepping “a very aggressive campaign to really spread the word about what we actually do.” Korb appears to be a new ALEC employee who recently worked for the Cato Institute. Both ALEC and Cato have received funding from Koch family foundations. The Heritage Foundation is an ALEC ...

Marco Rubio Stands By His Friend — But At What Cost?
Post Date: 2012-04-18 12:32:10 by Brian S
3 Comments
From his first days on the political scene, Sen. Marco Rubio has never strayed far from his close friend, Rep. David Rivera. The men first met while volunteering for then Florida State Senator Lincoln Diaz-Balart’s first congressional campaign in 1992. A few years later, Rivera hired Rubio out of law school in Miami to work on Bob Dole’s doomed presidential bid. By 2002, they were colleagues in the Florida state house and when Rubio was elected speaker in 2006, Rivera took up as his top lieutenant. They rode into Washington together on the crest of a powerful GOP midterm wave in 2010, Rubio as a senator, Rivera as the new house representative from Florida’s 25th district. ...

Top officials from the agency accused of blowing through taxpayer dollars on luxury getaways and other expenses endured a public drubbing Monday on Capitol Hill, as one invoked his right to remain silent, others apologized profusely and lawmakers tore into them for the "gross abuse of taxpayer funds." Members of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee at times yelled at the representatives from the General Services Administration called to testify Monday, demanding strict punishment. The acting chief of the agency later assured lawmakers that he's ordered a few GSA officials to repay the government for their personal expenses and will refer any "criminal ...

Cnn Poll: Gender Gap And Likeability Keep Obama Over Romney

(CNN) - President Barack Obama holds a nine-point lead over Republican challenger Mitt Romney thanks in part to the perception that the president is more likeable and more in touch with the problems facing women and middle class Americans, according to a new national poll. A CNN/ORC International poll released Monday also indicates a large gender gap that benefits Obama, but the public is divided on which candidate can best jump-start the economy.

Gingrich Bolts When Student Journo Asks Fox Question; Aide, Secret Service physically block UNC's Memet Walker

(Newser) – Newt Gingrich had no problem bashing Fox News last week, but he apparently really does not want to be questioned about it now, as a reporter for the University of North Carolina's Daily Tar Heel found out Saturday. Memet Walker had scheduled a private interview with Gingrich at a Tea Party rally, and hadn't been told any topics were off-limits, he writes. But before he could even finish asking his first question—related to Gingrich's Fox comments and Roger Ailes' response—the very same aide who set up the interview "pressed his hands against me" and Secret Service blocked him, Walker writes. "You’re not asking that. You’re ...

Ann Romney: Hilary Rosen’s Comment ‘Was My Early Birthday Present’

The wife of presumptive Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney sounded less like a stay-at-home mother of five and more like a political tactician at an event on Sunday where she said comments made by a Democratic CNN contributor were an “early birthday present.” Reporters from both The Wall Street Journal and NBC News overheard Ann Romney telling supporters at a private fundraiser in Palm Beach, Florida that she “loved” that Hilary Rosen charged that the wealthy candidate’s wife had “actually never worked a day in her life.” “She’s never really dealt with the kinds of economic issues that a majority of the women in this country are ...

Mitt Romney Doesn't Think Staying Home With Children Is Work IF YOU'RE POOR

WASHINGTON -- Poor women who stay at home to raise their children should be given federal assistance for child care so that they can enter the job market and "have the dignity of work," Mitt Romney said in January, undercutting the sense of extreme umbrage he showed when Democratic strategist Hilary Rosen quipped last week that Ann Romney had not "worked a day in her life." The remark, made to a Manchester, N.H., audience, was unearthed by MSNBC's "Up w/Chris Hayes," and aired during the 8 a.m. hour of his show Sunday. Ann Romney and her husband's campaign fired back hard at Rosen following her remark. "I made a choice to stay home and raise ...

Bachmann steps closer to endorsing Romney

Appearing on NBC's "Meet the Press" Sunday morning, Rep. Michele Bachmann said she is “seriously looking into” endorsing presidential candidate Mitt Romney. The remarks are the closest the former GOP presidential candidate and Minnesota congresswoman has come to making an endorsement since dropping out of the race on Jan. 4. Citing the decision by Romney’s chief rival – former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum – to suspend his campaign last Tuesday, Bachmann said there is a “uniting and pulling together around our eventual nominee.” “I have said that I want my voice to be one of uniting our party, the independents, the main stream, the ...

In his celebrated address to the Conservative Political Action Conference this past February, Andrew Breitbart predicted that the left and the media would do exactly what they are doing today: concoct false accusations of racism to divide Americans and intimidate opponents of President Barack Obama. Breitbart specifically singled out Al Sharpton and MSNBC, anticipating that they would cynically use empty "dog whistle" accusations to inflame racial tensions. He noted that it made no sense for Sharpton to have a prime time program "unless you understand what they're doing": This is gonna be the dog whistle election cycle. They tested it in 2011, so that [Sharpton] and ...

Tax Breaks for Wealthy Should Be Cut, Paul Ryan Says
Post Date: 2012-04-12 12:12:24 by Brian S
1 Comments
U.S. House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan said tax breaks for the wealthy should be reduced as part of an overhaul of the nation’s tax code. “We should ask: Who should get them?” Ryan, a Wisconsin Republican, said yesterday in an interview with Bloomberg View in New York. “We should circumscribe these tax benefits to middle-income and low-income people, and not to higher-income people.” Ryan, 42, declined to identify which benefits ought to be cut to finance his proposed tax overhaul. Last month, the House approved his budget that calls for consolidating the current six individual tax brackets into two, with rates set at 25 percent and 10 percent. The top ...

Gingrich’s Newt Inc. Bankrupt as Campaign Falls Millions in Debt

A presidential campaign bid, even a failed one, can open doors to lucrative career options, such as former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee’s Fox News contract. In the case of Newt Gingrich, a financial comeback may be a harder climb. The former U.S. House speaker’s time on the campaign trail has led to the shuttering of two businesses that generated $107 million in income during the last 10 years and helped him accrue at least $7.3 million in assets. His campaign also is struggling, bouncing a $500 check for the filing fee in the June 26 Utah primary, and amassing almost $4.5 million in debt. His future earnings potential also is imperiled, public- relations advisers and ...

Obama Calls Ronald Reagan A ‘Wild-Eyed, Socialist, Tax-Hiking Class Warrior’

President Obama made the case today for the so-called “Buffet Rule,” which would mandate that the wealthy pay the same percentage of their income in taxes as middle class families. He described for the audience the actions of one of his predecessors in the Oval Office, a president who “gave a speech where he talked about a letter he had received from a wealthy executive who paid lower tax rates than his secretary, and wanted to come to Washington and tell Congress why that was wrong. So this president gave another speech where he said it was ‘crazy’—that’s a quote—that certain tax loopholes make it possible for multimillionaires to pay nothing, ...

Senior Citizens Grill Republican Congressman At Town Hall For Supporting Ryan Plan To Kill Medicare (VIDEO)

When senior citizens turn 65, they expect that Medicare will take care of their health needs. They paid into the system all of their lives, and have earned the medical benefits they have waited so long to receive. Medicare represents a promise made by the government to senior citizens, and it’s one of the most successful and popular programs ever created in America. But Republican congressman Paul Ryan has a plan that would eliminate Medicare as we know it, turning the popular single-payer system into a coupon program. Instead of getting a Medicare card that provides guaranteed government health insurance, seniors would get a voucher worth a set amount to go buy private insurance from ...

Rep. Allen West (R-Fla.) says he's heard that almost half of all the Democrats in Congress are secretly part of the Communist Party. He offered no names or proof of his accusation. West told almost 100 Floridians in Palm City on Tuesday that "he's heard" as many as 80 Democrats in Congress are members of the Communist Party, according to the Palm Beach Post. The freshman Republican, an outspoken conservative and Tea Party favorite, is a longtime critic of the Democratic Party. At the same event, he charged that President Obama was "scared" to meet with him. "I really wish that, standing here before you, was Allen West and President Obama," West ...

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie said Tuesday that the U.S. is turning into a “paternalistic entitlement society” that will bankrupt the country financially and morally because “we’ll have a bunch of people sittin’ on a couch waiting for their next government check.” “I’ve never seen a less optimistic time in my lifetime in this country and people wonder why,” the first-term Republican governor said at the Bush Institute Conference on Taxes and Economic Growth in New York City. “I think it’s really simple. It’s because government’s now telling them ‘stop dreaming, stop striving, we’ll take care of you.’ ...

McDonnell: Time For Party Conservatives To Unify Behind Romney

WASHINGTON (AP) — The head of the Republican Governors Association says Rick Santorum’s withdrawal from the presidential sweepstakes should signal party conservatives to unify behind Mitt Romney. Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell tells “CBS This Morning” that “conservatives, independents and clear-thinking moderates are now going to get behind” the former Massachusetts governor. He says he believes Republicans have an excellent chance to make Barack Obama a one-term president, and that party people should be “keeping their eyes on the big prize, which is winning the presidency.” McDonnell says he believes Santorum “can bring a lot of people in” ...
