PASSING THE BLAME AGAIN


Now that Romney is raising more money than Obama, now that Romney is spending more money than Obama and now that Obama is staring straight into the face of the possibility of defeat, he is lashing out at his supporters and demanding that they cough up more money.  If he loses, he says, it will be the fault of his supporters.  To add further import to his claim, he says that he hasn’t had as much time to campaign this year as he did in 2008 because he has been too busy “saving America.” 

COMMENTS:
At least he didn’t blame Bush.  I’ll be damned if I’d cough up even a nickel if I got that email.  And the fact is, of course, that he’s been campaigning for reelection since the day he took office.  But, maybe, he’ll bring Jimmy Carter in to speak at the Democratic National Convention next week, thinking that Carter might save his political butt. 
 
TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q. Allen West is an eloquent speaker who makes the case for what needs to be done in America.  He’s from Florida and the Republican National Convention has been in Tampa.  Why wasn’t he included on the list of speakers?  (Cray ~ Sausalito, CA)
A. The bitter truth is, because he’s black, speaks his mind and is controversial. Maybe that's why Fox grounded Juan Williams? 

Q. Sarah Palin has said that a third political party could be in the works.  Who would they run for President at this late date?  (Barbie ~ Concord, CA)
A. She’s talking about in the future, not for this election.  Here’s the issue, as I have stated in my blogs many times.  The Republican Party acts too much like the Democratic Party on far too many occasions.  I advocated for a third party going into this election back in 2009 if things didn’t improve in the 2010 elections.  They did improve.  However, I have to agree with Sarah in the sense that the Republican Party has lost its way and I think that the time has arrived for the formation of a third party that is more down-to-earth American.  It needs to start forming now to be ready to field serious candidates in the 2016 election. 

Q. Obama is saying that questions about his place of birth are a big joke.  What’s your reaction?  (Tessie ~ Reno, NV)
A. When it comes to the Presidency, no question is a joke.  Those who seek to deflect the impact of the question are, however, hiding something. 

TODAY’S QUOTE:
“The Supreme Court has ruled that they cannot have a nativity scene in Washington, D.C. This wasn't for any religious reasons. They couldn't find three wise men and a virgin.” ~ Jay Leno
(Does that rule out Obama?)
