Comedy Central's Jon Stewart did a funny bit on Ohio being "Swing State Hell" on last night's "Daily Show."

Watch it here. (There is 30-second ad first, then considerable Ohio mention starts about 50 seconds into clip. Worth watching!

Do you think Obama is a good guy and a straight shooter? Read on, please: 
Obama has been an economic disaster the last four years, and this Benghazi disgrace is completely unacceptable... This country does not reward failure and dishonesty out of the White House...

You see, it's easy to run on a slogan, like Obama did in 2008... Hope and change, baby... It's much harder to do once you have a record that can be reviewed... He also said in 2008 that if he didn't get the job done in four years, that it would be a one term deal... Well, he hasn't delivered, so time to let him keep his word... Romney/Ryan 2012

Obama is so disingenuous... He says during a post Sandy photo-op that we don't leave anyone behind, yet that's exactly what he did in Benghazi... You have a very small group of American's, who's job was NOT security (another Obama lie) fighting off wave after wave of terrorists, begging the administration for help, and Obama sits on his thumbs while they're eventually overrun and murdered... How anyone could support such an administration after this even is mind boggling... The lies, the stonewalling, and four dead American's spinning in their graves over this deceit from the White House... The entire nation should be disgusted...

Every voter needs to read this excellent article... Very well worth your time...

Oh, he has been lecturing about moving money off shore to the Caymans, but don't expect details, as they have a "blackout" on the details from his speech there last night:

Guaranteed, next year's keynote speech will be from "former GOP presidential candidate; Mitt Romney."

About half of what Romney says on Sunday will probably be LIES!

As Politifact has shown over recent months, 42 PERCENT OF WHAT ROMNEY HAS SAID ARE LIES. (Total of all False, Mostly False and Pants on FIre rulings. This compares to Obama's 28 percent.)

Keep this in mind, and also remember Romney will probably LIE to you about any promises he makes. You've been warned!

Romney has so much more class? You mean like in Dayton earlier this week when he sent campaign workers out to buy food and the gave the food to those at his rally to then, in turn, hand back over to him in front of the cameras? You must have left out the word "low" in your class statement.

I see Joseph had another personality split while I needed to step away. And, it looks like a few others have joined the spam train. Also appears some of those on here were actually part of that original Joseph, Jean, Beth,... entity - I have noticed lots of similarities in some posters comments recently as they are trying to blast this NE Ohio area. They tried to change it up with comments but in their haste, they tipped their hand!

Romney can’t be trusted, as Republican leaders, media and experts agree!

“I’m not quite sure which governor Romney we would be getting with respect to foreign policy.”
http://thinkprogress.org/security/2012/10/25/1086721/powell-romney-foreign-policy/?mobile=nc

Politifact: 42 percent of Romney’s comments in recent months have been false, much higher than Obama’s comments.
http://www.politifact.com/personalities/mitt-romney/

Salt Lake City Tribune, largest daily paper in Republican and Mormon-led Utah: “Romney (is) willing to say anything to get elected.”
http://www.sltrib.com/sltrib/opinion/55019844-82/romney-obama-state-president.html.csp

Rick Santorum, former Republican Senator: “This is someone (Romney) who doesn’t have a core. He has been on both sides of almost every single issue in the past 10 years. “

jimbo I actually think Romney " came from the planet of "ROMMULA". He dosen't have a clue what he"s talking about. He's using words to describe how he's going to chang the country but has NO FACTS OR FIGURES to back up his BULLS---. He looks at the United States as a "big corporation" and expects to be the PRESIDENT and CEO of it. His clowns this morning on CNN couldn't believe how Obama's camp was ATTACKING Romney about the lies of the Jeep jobs to China that he continues to make. Romney calls himself a christian, talk about a TWO FACED HYPOCRIT, TAKING OUT OF BOTH SIDES OF HIS MOUTH. His wife isn't any better she's a phony just like he is. Took advantage of the auto bailout invested 1 million in stock at $.67 now at $32.00 a share which cost the TAX PAYERS more money because of it. The so called BLIND TRUST he put in Ann Romneys name to hide it. If he's elected i feel sorry for not only this country but also the people that voted for him because he going to FORGET EVERYTHING HE PROMISED THE PEOPLE THAT VOTED FOR HIM mark my words. His only concern is going to be HIMSELF, FAMILY, THE BIG DONORS & THE 1%. They remind me of DAGWOOD BUMSTED & BLONDIE. Whats really disgusting is that stupid look he gives when makes a statement and the CONSTANT SMACKING OF HIS LIPS. OHIO IS OBAMA COUTRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So did Romney finally speak about or answer questions on the fact that he wanted to eliminate FEMA? No? I didn't think so. It is easy to talk crap, until you may find yourself up against it. He folded like a lawn chair when this nation wanted to hear about FEMA. This is what you get when you stand with the flim flam man.

Once you leave the sandbox and learn to read like the adults do, then you will easily find all the good rationals. In fact some adult will probably help you learn about a search engine called Google and you can simply enter "reasons to vote Obama" and all your questions will be answered. In fact, here are 218 reasons from Forbes and these are all pres Sandy and the absolutely stellar accomplishments that FEMA has been able to do under him, compared to Bush's inaction during Katrina:

I saw Obama yesterday claiming the new job numbers are proof that his policies are working and that we are in an economic recovery... Fact is, that is not the truth, or even close to the truth...
First, the unemployment rate ticked up to 7.9% and the year-to-date monthly average of 157,000 payroll jobs is barely enough to keep up with population growth -- much less make up for the 8 million jobs lost during the Great Recession.
Second, the so-called real unemployment rate (U6) remains elevated at 14.6%, albeit down from 14.7% the prior month. Similarly, the labor participation rate is at 63.8%, up from its multi-decade low but still incredibly weak.
Third, average hourly earnings fell a penny in October and average hours worked fell to 34.4 from 34.5 in September.
Stagnant wages means "we're not generating income," Reinhart says. "That's a problem in terms of the durability of an economic expansion, which is usually fueled by consumption. To get consumption you've got to generate income."
Also, just look at your checkbook. We are paying a lot more for everything now than we did in 2008. The price of gas has doubled. At the same time, wages have gone down, and that's if you're lucky to have a job.
In 2008, 25 banks went out of business. In 2012, 48 banks have gone out of business. Almost double the amount. Does that sound like recovery to you? Don't believe the Obama lies!!

October Jobs report
with the unemployment rate ticking up to 7.9 percent but the economy adding a better-than-expected 171,000 jobs.

At the same time, the number of unemployed grew by 170,000, roughly the same amount -- to 12.3 million. .......................really +1,000 jobs gained thats 20 jobs per state or 1 new job for every 4 counties in ohio

"Gary Johnson's 7 Principles of Good Government

1) Become reality driven. Don't kid yourself or others. Find out what's what and base your decisions and actions on that.

2) Always be honest and tell the truth. It's extremely difficult to do any damage to anybody when you are willing to tell the truth—regardless of the consequences.

3) Always do what's right and fair. Remember, the more you actually accomplish, the louder your critics become. You've got to learn to ignore your critics. You've got to continue to do what you think is right. You've got to maintain your integrity.

4) Determine your goal, develop a plan to reach that goal, and then act. Don't procrastinate.

5) Communicate. Make sure everybody who ought to know what you're doing knows what you're doing.

6) Don't hesitate to deliver bad news. There is always time to salvage things. There is always time to fix things. Henry Kissinger said that anything that can be revealed eventually should be revealed immediately.

7) Be willing to do whatever it takes to get your job done. If you've got a job that you don't love enough to do what it takes to get your job done, then quit and get one that you do love, and then make a difference.

Anthony, Alice Paul, Clara Barton, Rosa Parks, VanGogh, Frida Kahlo, Dr. Brian O'Leary, Frederick Delius, Christo and Jeanne-Claude, and Walter and Lao Russell, etc. ever compromised their principles.

Gov. Gary Johnson is walking with some big name people if his integrity, and refusal to compromise on his principles, sets the bar high.

Go, Gary. Wouldn't it be nice to have a real leader who can lead us somewhere worth going?
