“Let’s talk about how to get the American people working again.”
OK. Maybe they’ll start working more if we take away the six-figure salaries they earn for holding no-show jobs in top management. Oh, wait, that’s just you, Mitt.

The Rove ad
The credibility of Rove is surely lost when the ad uses the word “could,” as in “millions could lose their health care coverage and be forced into a government pool.” Note the ad doesn’t illuminate us how this “could” happen. Maybe, they mean if insurance companies peddle garbage policies, then those insurance policies will be blackballed or taken off the market? Kinda like toys with lead paint in them are, now. I would expect Karl Rove and Mitt Romney, and Scott Brown for that matter, to be totally against sound consumer protections.
This ad is littered with the spectre of doom, but it doesn’t nail anything to Obama directly. It’s sorry ass fear mongering, ginning up the folks that want to think Obama is a Kenyan born, manchurian jihadist. (aka Black)
The Obama campaign has an app for that:
Get the facts on Karl Rove’s BS

Joe, those no-show jobs.. are you talking about Lizzie at Harvard?

Shawn,
Do you just make this stuff up or do you have some proof of a “no show.” Beyond sabattical, as that is common among profs.
July 15th, 2012 at 8:37 pm
What are you talking about Shawn? Do you mean like your no-show job? (See what I did there - I know I don’t have anything to support it but I can still make the insinuation.)

And why Lizzie? She uses Elizabeth. Aren’t nicknames as weapons a bit middle school?

Libertarians are stuck in adolescence. Captains of Id, if you will.

Shawn,
What the hell are you talking about?
