Al Gore was not going to win the election, since the Republicans had the full intention of stealing the White House, senate, and congress for their own selfish interests without any concern for anybody else except the extreme rich. The stage had been set with deception and lies with that dark agenda to dictate falsehoods. Nothing was going to change that as it was foretold. These Republicans, extremists of hatred, and extreme rich had chosen their path against God and/or Jesus.

I am beside myself! I always knew Mitt was a Twitt, but THIS?! My heart actually aches and I feel physically ill at the thought of this guy governing our Nation. I guess for me...I have a fundamental belief that we have a Divine responsibility to uplift our fellow brothers and sisters of our community. That doesn't mean we, as a Nation, promote free-loading and I don't believe that is what social programs do. I have a family member who is on welfare at the moment, she is on food stamps, and her children are in the foster care system. She is working really hard to get back on her feet and these government resources are a GodSent to her and our family. I thank God everyday that she has the help she needs and that these government programs are available. This is what makes our country so great! People get the help they need so they can build a better life for themselves. If Mitt-Witt and Ly'n-Ryan get there way - Millionares will make out like bandits and the rest of us.....well, we should ask our parents for help. C'mon are these people for real?!? With Romney's plan....the rich get richer.....the poor get pooer

There must be a better term than "intelligence briefing". Romney's intelligence seems to get briefer quite often.

MIEN KAMPF was "not elegantly stated," and we know who else doubled down on their inelegantly stated views of vulnerable social groups. But he now says he cares about 47% of the population he already said he disdains. Yet another flip-flop. Will that be part of Mitt's Mendacity, vol. 35, or 57? MM is no longer revealing or funny; it's tedious and scary.

And, in the same post, you tell us that he's received an intelligence briefing! Thanks, I'll get a good night's sleep tonight, won't I?

Mitt's response to an ex-Secratary of State saying there's a possible solution to the Israel/Palestine conflict - "Really?" No follow up..."I didn't delve into it."

Holy...

Personal responsibility??? Mitt Romney started life getting MILLIONS in unearned parental handouts then got richer by ruining the lives of others without conscence. He wants to be the President out of personal ambtion -- another trophy.

I don't understand something - If David Corn says the video was recorded in May, why does the questioner ask his question with the statement "....in two months to go before the election........."????

Self deportation to Switzerland only weeks away now.

All I can say is keep talking Mitt you nit wit !!!!!

oxymoron intelligent - Romney

Mitt Romney, needs to step down, and be a man about it. You are not qualified to run in this race... you hate the government, and you have no idea about the middle class. You gave your 5 boys 100Million Dollars....I don't understand that kind of money, and you sure won't understand a person making $800.00 a week or $350.00 a week..Obama2012 @maddow #maddow

Here's the deal, people: the Islamophobic movie, the demonstrations and the murder of Ambassador Stevens have been orchestrated by the neocons around Mitt Romney to embarass Obama. They released the movie and had their provocateurs within Islamic groups use this as a pretext to incite riots against American embassies. While this was going on, they activated a death squad that they control, a Libyan branch of Ansar al Sharia , led by a Guantanamo graduate who these same neocons released in 2007 to Libya, a CIA-trained professional mercenary-terrorist named Qumo. You can look it up. The death squad was informed of the location of the Ambassador, and the ambassador's Libyan guards all took a powder, leaving him almost unprotected. How could this happen, asks Hillary? How indeed? Let's hope she finds out and hangs it around the neocon's necks. You see, folks, these neocons are the same ones who were in charge on 9/11. If you want a bigger 9/11 as well as a bigger economic crash, just vote them back in again. And Obama, please, get out of Afghanistan right now. Give it back to the Taliban. You can no more transfer power to the current so-called government in Afghanistan than it could be done back in Vietnam days. Does anybody remember the last days of Vietnnam? I do. The Karzai government is not a government at all, its a gang of drug dealers. Cut 'em loose, please. Hang Bush, Cheney and Rumsfeld. They did this to us. Afghanistan had nothing to do with it.

Ah... Keith Olbermann... (don't miss his 30 second video)

Still, it was a nostalgic kick to see Keith back in the saddle, even if it was a small iSaddle. He had a great run as the fire-breathing voice of the left in a right-wing wasteland, but maybe Keith Olbermann just isn’t built for a world in which a Bush administration is just something they offer at the waxing salon.

15 minute Youtube video every 2 weeks, Keith. No, it's not broadcast TV, but I'd still be okay with that.

"Romney got his first intelligence briefing last night."

INTERIOR OFFICE - DAY
ROMNEY is sitting in a modern, well-lit office. BRIEFER enters the room. ROMNEY rises to greet her. They shake hands solemnly and are seated at one end of a large, polished oak table.

ROMNEY:
Shall we begin?

Briefer nods, handing him a thin folder, out of which he removes an official-looking document.

ROMNEY:
And what's this?

BRIEFER:
Your intelligence report.

ROMNEY:
Okay. Why is there only one page?

BRIEFER:
We thought we would start out slowly.
You know... Libya... Iowa... Afghanistan... Russia.*

Arctic expert predicts final collapse of sea ice within four years

One of the world's leading ice experts has predicted the final collapse of Arctic sea ice in summer months within four years.

...

"At first this didn't [get] noticed; the summer ice limits slowly shrank back, at a rate which suggested that the ice would last another 50 years or so. But in the end the summer melt overtook the winter growth such that the entire ice sheet melts or breaks up during the summer months.

"This collapse, I predicted would occur in 2015-16 at which time the summer Arctic (August to September) would become ice-free. The final collapse towards that state is now happening and will probably be complete by those dates".

I think like a good soup needs occassional stirring, we need to keep asking WHY Mittens won't show his taxes . . . Just WHAT is this Slick Imperialistic Money Monster HIDING in all those years ?? Especially given his latest trot in the Golden Sex Garden with those donors... and >>> WHY DID HE REQUIRE 10 years of TAX RETURNS From RYAN, his running Mate .... both of these men were left their fathers fortunes... which means for the first time in HISTORY we might have a President/Vice President that NEVER UNDERSTOOD the Ordinary Life and it's financial struggles that nearly 97 % of Americans experience in Civic society .. these men are Insulated and ALWAYS Have been ...
