Flip At His Finest: With the NRA

Posted By Rod Kaufman

Romney paid homage to the NRA today. Blasting Obama for an attack on America's freedoms, thundering away at him with righteous indignation.
Trouble is, Romney has done more to oppose gun rights than Obama!
He opposed the right to own an assault rifle, plainly stating the weapon is used only to hunt and kill people. (He must have been off his meds). Then, he falsely claimed the NRA had endorsed him in a previous election. Next, he backtracked and acknowledged it wasn't true.(Must have been back on his meds).
The NRA's response to these revelations? "Nobody's perfect"!!!
Bush! Bush voters!!!

Can't we do more to slow down production?
Hmm, let's see:
We could pull a Republican and make things up:

and:

Hmm, whom to believe, the IAE and OPEC or the Republicans?
Yup, there must be something we can do, believe the Republicans, encourage more speculation, and, most importantly, drill baby drill!!!

Student loans forgiven...

Posted By Rod Kaufman

I paid off my own mortgage. Nobody bailed me out. Countless homeowners went in over their heads and walked away or had their debts "forgiven". They were the "victims". I'm currently paying for my daughter's college education.
Now this...
