Liars and cheats, in the name of Politics

   In reference to Arianna Huffington’s article in the Huff Post Media on November 28, 2011, Mitt Romney and his camp are liars and cheats—all in the name of Politics. I can’t believe these people can run for office, and at times, win.

   Romney put out a television ad in New Hampshire, a state that is important for Obama’s campaign, showing President Obama saying, “If we keep talking about the economy, we’re going to lose.” But their ad does not say that Obama was actually quoting his opponent, in 2008, Senator McCain which goes like this, "Senator McCain's campaign actually said, and I quote, 'if we keep talking about the economy, we're going to lose."
   If I didn’t know where to look for the “truth,” I would have believed the television ad Romney’s campaign put out. Many people either don’t look or don’t know where to look for the truth so they believe what the ad says. Which is exactly what Romney wants.

   Taking words out of context and turning them into something they are not to win and election. What kind of people would want a person like that to run our country? It is a scary thought that this is possible. We usually don’t find out that the president, in the case, a potential president, is a liar until some time after being elected.

   Romney’s senior New Hampshire adviser Tom Rath tells CBS News the ad is  “exactly what we want.”

“They were using McCain’s words to make fun of McCain. And we’re using the exact same technique,” he said.

Pressed on whether it was unfair to lop off the top of Mr. Obama’s comments — which would show the president was quoting the McCain camp — Rath said, “He did say the words. That’s his voice.”

He then suggesting that the more people discuss the ad, the better it is for the Romney campaign.

   If he takes peoples words out of context and is not afraid to televise it, what will he do with the words of the Constitution if he becomes president? I certainly do not want to find out.
