BOSTON — Mitt Romney is promising to reduce taxes on middle-income Americans.
But how does he define "middle-income"? The Republican presidential nominee defined it as income of $200,000 to $250,000 a year.
Romney commented during an interview broadcast Friday on ABC’s "Good Morning America."

Pennsylvania will provide a free ID to anyone who doesn’t already have one. The state even allows voters to cast a provisional ballot if they sign an affirmation that they can’t afford the supporting documentation needed to get an ID. There is simply no way that this law could prevent an eligible voter from casting a ballot

No its not. It is bringing a group of people's public comments into this dialogue. If you want to counter it by showing similar idiotic statements from the other side of the spectrum that's fine, but lets not shut down every dialogue as racist. If the poster of those tweet images had added some blatant racist remark like "look at what some ... wrote" then fine point that out, but that really wasn't the case.

Yeah it is,what would have been better is if the conversation was about the same action on both sides but since Monkeydad chose to show only one side ...yes it's racist and I would have said the same thing had he only put out tweets from whites about Obama.Look there are nut jobs and wackos on bothsides but this scare tatic BS has got to stop.Or do you really want me to post all of the dumb stuff Rush Limbaugh says?

is it partisan yes
racist no. again its the sad state of US political discourse that any representation made that is not all inclusive is suddenly berated or decried as a racist or sexist or elitist or whateverist, and thus whatever point might be made is lost or belittled.

regardless of other people's statement the tweet images represent what should be unacceptable sentiments of how to handle a political loss.

as for rush limbaughs dumbstuff its fine for you to do it if you feel it adds to your point. I won't decry you as a fat person hater, or weightist. :P

The best way to stop voter fraud is to stop the manual process and put voting machines into place. This can be run relatively cheaply and it has far better capacity to ensure no votes have been double cast, etc. Enter SSN. Then have queries to check if deceased, felon, etc etc. I'm sure there's a more effective method out there as far as ensuring positive positives, but off the top of my head it's all I can think.

Unbelievable...talk about ignorant and delusional.

Romney should just come out and said he thinks black people are poor and want handouts. It's no secret that's who he's talking about in that first video.



It keeps getting better and better for Romney. Elect this asshole and you can guarantee our country is plunged into another war.

The idiot doesn't know the black population represents 13 percent of the total population...and apparently if you support Obama you don't like taking responsibility and are on the gov's tit.

So is that what the Repubs are going to use going into the debates? A mere fact they use a image of somebody else's planes at a convention? Really? If that's the case, might as well look at the Republican convention and see how many foreign devices that were in place. (most electronics, most cloth made items, and probably most suits)

Talk about grasping at straws.

PA Supreme Court ruled against voter ID law returning it to the lower courts for further review. PA supreme court also makes clear that the lower court must suspend the law if voter disenfranchisement will result in the 2012 election.

Basically if the Republican judges don't fix the law, the PA Supreme Court will strike it down before the election.
